We loved this place! The food is delicious fresh and sort well made! Oh and in my opinion Super underpriced for both the quality and quantity of food! I had the Station Style... eggs sausage served over a bed of cheesy hash browns! The eggs were perfect and soft and the potatoes were crisp and super cheesy! A bit like macaroni and cheese flavor-wise...and that was delicious! I also asked for some jalapeno and a tortilla on the side... 50for the fresh cut jalapeno and a dollar for the large fresh wrap tortilla.... Totally great! Leslie had a Land Rover...a vegan friendly entree that would have wonderfully satisfied this omnivore! Creamy and delicious sauce over portobello mushrooms and avocado on an English muffin so so so delicious. Leslie also ordered an order of French toast for the road...Super eggy and perfectly crisp on the edges. Great coffee too...not your typical water down thin coffee! Rich and satisfying! The sign says “if you want a fast meal, this isn’t it...But if you want a good meal come on in”. And they are right. The prep time was on the long side for sure, but the atmosphere was nice, great people watching, and the good coffee kept coming...totally worth the wait. For all we ordered, the tab was only 30!...totally underpriced!!! Oh and it’s located in a converted service station! So so so cool inside! And nice outside seating as well! Get yourself to the 6th street filling station! You’ll be glad you did!

Great place to go. Awesome food and pleasant people. My wife had the Greek salad salmon wrap and I had the hot rod skillet with chorizo sausage. As you can tell by the pictures they take the time to make it look as good as it tastes. Presentation, service and flavors are all top notch. Maybe only drawback is it may take some time to get in because the work is out on how good of a place this is.

This place is wonderful! The atmosphere is cozy, the staff is helpful and friendly and the FOOD IS OUT OF THIS WORLD! We both ordered Bennys...Model T and the gluten-free one. Best ever!! Will go back for lunch soon (even though drive is over an hour...totally worth it). The menu is manageable with ample selections in both breakfast and brunch options. It feels like they’ve narrowed down the menu to those items that they’ve perfected...and they nailed it!!! Nearby tables had ordered burgers that looked amazing. And another table was enjoying pancakes that looked ridiculously delicious. This is our new go-to place for breakfast and brunch!

Food is good, I got the Ruben sandwich, and even the fries were over the top! Only suggestion is the mens bathroom was smelling kinda sour before I walked in. Maybe someone must've used earlier or so, I don't know, but the food is crafty, fresh and a good portion! They also have self serve brunch on the weekends too!

Average wait times for food are 30 minutes, but they have a traffic light to indicate depending on business. Food was with waiting for. Very friendly staff. Lots of variety. Coke products on tap! Always a plus for me.

Everything about The Filling Station is excellent, from the food, to the staff, to the overall vibe and attention to detail. The atmosphere is homey and natural, yet feels like a quiet world apart. The staff there is friendly, professional, and very good at what they do. And the food comes in generous, Wisconsin sized portions, tastes amazing, and the presentation is spot on. Whether you are looking for a quiet corner to get away to during the week, or an amazing brunch buffet on Sundays, this is the place to go.
