The Blue Store
About This Spot
Walking into The Blue Store feels like stepping into a well-worn crossroads of community and comfort. Tucked away along Highway 155, this isn’t just a convenience store—it’s a lively pit stop where familiar, everyday moments unfold amidst the hum of local chatter and the faint aroma of fresh cooking. The pace here is unhurried, inviting travelers and neighbors alike to pause and savor a small, grounded slice of Tyler life.
The space balances functionality with warmth. Between the aisles stocked with essentials, you’ll find homey dining tables that encourage a laid-back, neighborhood vibe. The inviting sunroom and front porch picnic tables extend the scene outdoors, perfect for catching a breath of fresh air while enjoying a modest meal. It’s a place where casual exchanges feel genuine, where smiles come with the kind of ease that speaks to care rather than formality.
The Blue Store’s charm is found not just in what’s on the menu but in the welcoming atmosphere and honest simplicity of the experience. Burgers here carry a straightforward heartiness, and breakfast burritos arrive heaped with substance and value—meals meant to satisfy without pretense. It’s reassuring that here, a quick stop for fuel and snacks slides naturally into lingering over familiar, homemade flavors, remembering what it feels like when a place looks out for you.
More than just a place to refuel your car, The Blue Store is a pause in the day where locals nod hello and travelers find something unexpectedly genuine. It’s a reminder that sometimes comfort lives in the simple, the familiar, and the quietly consistent places that welcome you back each time.

Visited to see if their hamburgers were as good as I've read. Short answer...Yes. Great basic burgers. The place is a convenience store with home dining room tables in the back between the aisles, picnic tables on the front porch and an enclosed sun room with a few more tables. Folks were super friendly and helpful. Price was reasonable. Be sure that I will go back the next time I'm in the area.

This place rocks. The burgers were great and tamales even better. All these ppl complaining about the service need to check themselves. #1 it's a gas station that has a restaurant in it not a full eating establishment. #2 they don't speak perfect English so they are being short with you because that's how they talk. We got nothing but smiles and thank you's. So if you want an inexpensive good gas station meal this is your place. If you want to sit with your family and be waited on hand and foot, go somewhere else.

One of the few Valero stores left in this area! Neat, clean and welcoming.

Delicious. This was my first time at The Blue Store. I went on a recommendation from a friend. Breakfast burritos are loaded, and you can't beat the price $4.99. I will definitely be going back to try their famous burgers.

Great Place for Burgers, they were hardy and awesome. I saw plenty of menu choices on their food bar during a short morning stop and decided to check out their dining on our way back from a road trip. I was so impressed I decided to have a photo shoot and upload all the pics I could of the place. I’m definitely coming back in the future.
