    Cash's, Port Allen, LA....not the greatest or cleanest TS, but always parking there and the food in the diner is real good. Red beans and rice with Sausage and corn bread and a salad for $7.

    Wife and I went there. With the coupon, the buffet for two cost a total of $18. Showered for free.

    Plenty of parking. Best part is the coupon is good for like five of the casinos there.

    Great food,
    Live, national Music country artists,acts in the bar every once in awhile,
    movie theater, boot shop, hair cuts, drop off laundry yes dry cleaning as well. A business center with computers, faxing, etc.
    Recently remodeled fuel island building with new showers, hot deli.
    Always a couple of Classic trucks on Display

    Boise Stage Stop, the food, lots of parking no riff raff, and they have a on site green house, that grows the veggies, they use in the restaurant.
    And a Sign, over the counter,
    All are welcome, but Truck Drivers are served first.

    Agreed: Jubitz is great. They also have a medical clinic which is handy for med cards, or just for when you're sick enough to see a doctor. The suites in the new wing are great- VERY quiet with thick walls, and the price is good (about $150) for what you get.

    Can't agree as much about the Stage stop. It's nice that they have parking almost all the time, but there's a reason for that... It used to be better, but lately I've kept the door shut and hammer down. Reasons I don't stop there now: twice they have tried stealing from me at the fuel desk- they'd run my card for the purchase and tack on 8 to 15 bucks as a non-existent item. Last time it was a pair of gloves, the time before that it was sunglasses. When I returned the second time she acted totally guilty and had a hard time concealing it. Aside from that, every time I go in the wash buckets are either filthy dirty or bone dry. No papertowels on the island, squeegees falling apart, etc. BUT the diner has a few great looking babes and it's real nice to get a beer, steak, and watch the hotties waiting tables.

    :)

    Tattoo shops in a truck stop never seem like a good idea.
