Cassoday Country Store

We had flown into Texas to pick up our HD to ride it back to MN. Somewhere along the way, we hopped of the interstate to tour around the back roads and small towns, to see what was open and get a taste of the local experience. Sadly, all of the small town mom & pop shops that we came across were closed, permanently. Most likely because of Coronavirus. After an hour or so, we had given up hope. We were so thirsty. It was 98 degrees out and on the topside of a hot Harley, it felt like 120. We headed back towards 35 to find to one of the chain stores we were so bored with. Right before we got back to the interstate we found this place, and it was open! The owner was there and couldn't have been kinder. On that particular day, her coolers were on the fritz, and her ice delivery had been delayed several times. There was nothing cold to drink, but she knew how needy we were. She had a regular household fridge that most likely had her own personal stash of stuff in it, and pulled out the last 2 bottles of cold water that she had. That might not sound like a big deal to most people, but to us, in that moment, she was nothing short of a lifesaver! We hung out with her and enjoyed some easy conversation for a bit on the cozy porch out front. We didn't need gas and we weren't hungry, but we will definitely stop for those things next time we're passing through! We all need to support our local businesses, even when you're not from that town. We need to keep kind, hard working families like this going. Trust me, you don't realize what you have until it's gone!

Stop in and order lunch. Good food, great price. Support a local business.

You won’t find a better place to stop. We were a state away from home and our tire had a bad rip in it and was about to blow and the owners were a blessing. He changed our tire, refused our money, and help us in a way we won’t be able to repay. You can’t take kindness for granted these days. It’s good to know those small town businesses are still around.

I choose here, for fresh cooked food, friendly staffing nice owners, who are living here Kansas! Not Colorado like the corporate fast food, joint on the turnpike, I support this States people buy Kansas! And conservative Americans it's not oh so much turnpike fee to eat properly .

Very friendly and hospitable.
