    Yeah, for some reason Caribou has an amazing flavor. I sent an email to them months ago, asking questions about how they roast, but no reply. Whenever I get to a Caribou Coffee I purchase a large cold brewed and a pound of fresh ground house coffee. Their ground coffee behaves differently than other coffees, it absorbs water quickly. Caribou is regional in the Midwest.

    We have a Caribou here in Chapel Hill NC. Used to have 2. There is one in Raleigh too... I like there coffee.
    They are in the 'Iowa 80' family of truck stops, Coffee Cup Truck Stops in the Dakotas, and Sapp Bros..... not sure about all locations, but most that I've been too
    Far better than Starbucks IMHO

    I80, exit 68 is all I know. Buddy told me to stop there for a 34, said I'd enjoy it.

    That's the original Little America. Great place. Catch some March Madness on real leather couches. The showers are hard to beat.

    All the Little America showers are great. Large space for a shower room. Both tubs and shower, plus some have a few whirlpool tubs.
     
    Oxbow and Broke Down 69 Thank this.

    First time on a truck cross country, my trainer stopped at Little America. Said I had to experience their showers.

    He was nice enough to even pay for it. They will even provide you with a back scrubber, with a straight face he told the girl behind the counter, "we need a TEAM shower...throw in an extra back scrubber so I can get my partners back too..."

    After a couple of awkward seconds, we all busted up laughing realizing he had me there for a second! :)
