New Buc-ee’s location coming soon to Ocala. Zoning request for a Buc-ee’s in Marion County

Love Buc-ee’s….. always stop when traveling if we come upon one. It’s an experience!

Our Marion County Taxes should go down…

We drive to Gainesville every month. Along with Trader Joe’s, and Whole Foods, Buc-ee’s will be our destination stop on the way back home.

While traveling gas and clean bathrooms were always worth the stop. Now our stop will be snacks, bakery, and something to drink. Of course if you are a jerky fan, you will be in awe.

How about the Brisket sangwiches? We usually go every month or so to Daytona. It’s more than the great food it’s the nutty atmosphere and cleanliness and the gas prices for fuel the ride home. It’s an experience for sure. Beef Jerky and Fudge are plentiful and unbelievable! OCALA sounds good to me!

According to Google Maps, if the new site is at I-75 and Highway 236, the location will be quite far from Ocala. Actually, it is even north of Gainsville and Alachua. It will be great as we travel to Michigan, but I wouldn't consider it 'near' The Villages. Or is there another Highway 236 in Ocala that Google Maps didn't find?

Maybe they mean "Exit" 236? I take that to get on 301 when going back to MD...

"The Californians" go to Buc-ees...

Their brisket is pretty good but why do the put bbq sauce on the brisket sandwich? It just hides the taste of the meat.

I know why you like the place.. It's because Buc-ee rhymes with Nucky..

On our car trip across country in November when we moved here from California we stopped at 2 in TX, and 1 in I think MS (not sure). It was our first experience with Buc-ee’s and I loved them! Even bought baby grandson a stuffed Buc-ee for Christmas. 😄

They will stop the assembly line and make the sandwich to order. My wife gets it without the bbq sauce and we all love the place.

Sounds like where we will stop for breakfast heading north to visit our kids.

There is a Hwy 236 is just north of Ocala, it’s not Exit 236.
Loves is very close, probably the next exit. There is a Pilot truck stop on Hwy 236, I am guessing Buc-ee’s will either be next door to Pilot or across the street from Pilot, they usually are.

We buy brisket by the pound with sauce on the side. It travels well in a cooler. We usually stopped at Buc-ee’s close to Atlanta border, buy pound of brisket and bring it with us to our home in TV. I can’t imagine Marion county dragging their feet on this, Buc-ee’s pays well, employees are happy, place is packed, even late in the night.

Just to clear up part of this discussion, the Buc-ee’s will be located south of Hwy 326 in Ocala.

It is going to be almost 2 miles south of the exit! Not the best of locations.

Buc-ee’s is not the least expensive places to stop and shop (although the gas prices are good). Being close to The Villages, I wonder if part time employees get an employee discount?

Actually most Buc-ee’s are a mile or 2 off freeway. They require a large parcel of land. As I said I have never been to one of their locations that the parking lot and the pumps weren’t busy. We usually are stopping around 2am and the place is hopping. Most of their sites are never easy on easy off, yet it never detours those seeking 50 gas pumps, and the cleanest bathrooms ever
