Customer Reviews
The Thumb is an absolute gem in Scottsdale! From the moment you pull up, the unique vintage gas station vibe immediately sets the tone — it’s got that old-school charm mixed with a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The staff here were fantastic — super friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to be there, which really adds to the experience. I ordered the Full Moist Brisket Stack with a side of Mac and Cheese and Potato Salad, and wow — everything was spot on. The brisket was perfectly tender and flavorful, melt-in-your-mouth good, with just the right amount of smoke. The Mac and Cheese was creamy and rich, and the Potato Salad had that perfect balance of texture and flavor. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. Their menu is huge, so it’s clear I’v
BBQ rest with a gas station. Inside is big. Outdoor seating. Food is really good n great prices. They have beer n wine. Lil country store inside. Staff is very friendly n helpful. Order inside n they bring ur food out.
It like a cross between Buc-ee's and Cracker Barrel the food and service was good. Everything was cooked to order. Sweet potato fries were excellent along with the ribs. I really enjoyed the Biscuits and Gravy with plenty of meat. Nice prices, will drop in again if ever back this way.
What an awesome place, growing up in louisiana im used to being able to get 93 octane fuel just about anywhere. In Arizona, that's not so easy. This place has up to 100 octane which is great as my Porsche Boxster 986 recommends using 98 octane. The food was pretty good, and the staff friendly and informative. I'll be coming back for sure.
Found this unique place while searching for an unusual spot for a monthly lunch with a friend. Without GPS I might not have found this gas station, car wash with detailing service, craft store, gift shop and fabulous casual restaurant. I had the three sliders and my friend had the smashburger. He said it was the best he'd ever had. After living in famous-for-barbecue North Carolina 20+ years this tops any BBQ I've ever had. The place is located 25 minutes from where I live but I'll be returning often. Fantastic in every way.
