A good truck stop won't just have gas available and snacks for the road, but it will also have hot food ready to serve. This Kansas truck stop is perfect if you're headed to the turnpike, or just passing through town, even if they don't have enough parking for semi trucks to stick around. Grab a bite to eat, and soon you'll want to stop here every time you're in town. The food quality (and the prices) are undeniable. Let's take a look!
Welcome to Larry's Short Stop, a quick stop in Topeka that's ready to serve you everything you need on your next road trip. It doesn't have room for semi trucks to stay the night, but we'd like to consider it a truck stop nonetheless.
Not only do they sell regular gas station fare and deli items, but they also have ready made food that makes your stop here short so you can be on your way.
Some of their most popular items are their chicken and noodle served over mashed potatoes, and their hand made burgers. There's no frozen patty in sight at this stop!
In addition to sit-down food like biscuits and gravy, they have plenty of other options that are more portable, including their very popular fried gizzards. You can tell they put care into every dish they make here.
Of course, being a truck stop means they're open a lot longer than most businesses. You'll be able to visit Larry's Short Stop anywhere from 5 a.m. to midnight, every day of the week. It might not look like much, but you'll find nothing but friendly service and good food inside.
You'll find Larry's Short Stop at 3834 SW Topeka Blvd, Topeka, Kansas, right off the turnpike.
If you like truck stops and traveling, you'll love this one on the other side of the state, perfect for when you travel west.
