| - I have to say, I'm a little bit disappointed in my fellow YELPERS. I've read all four reviews on the Que Stand, and not one single review has mentioned that it is located INSIDE of a GAS STATION! Now, you can draw your own conclusions about food service inside of a gas station. I'm stating that fact first, before I mention anything else about the food because the place is nearly IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND if you don't know its located INSIDE of the GAS STATION!!! I looked for this place on THREE separate occasions. I even had to ask a multiple of locals in the Harrisburg area, before I was finally able to find someone that had heard of this place and knew where it was.
Upon finally locating this establishment on a recent Saturday evening, I was more than a little disappointed when informed that they were out of BBQ for the night.
I FINALLY got here on a Sunday afternoon, around noon and was able to place an order for a BBQ sandwich w/slaw and fries as my side item.
Despite the fact that this place is impossible to find unless you know exactly where it is, and despite the fact that its located in a gas station (which can be a turn-off for some), the food was actually pretty decent. When my food arrived, I was pleasantly surprised at how big the sandwich was (see pics). The slaw appeared fresh, however I wish they would've put a bigger helping on my sandwich (see pics). The kaiser roll was soft, yet solid enough to stay intact despite the slaw, and wet bbq sauce that smothered the 'QUE. The actual taste of the 'QUE was more than solid. Not the best I've ever had, but good enough so that I would def go back and try it again for the $6.00 I paid. The fries that came as my side were piping hot and crisp; def better than your average french fries.
The service was excellent. The gentleman that took my order, was friendly, and apologized for running out of 'que the previous night. My ordered arrived fairly promptly and to my specifications.
All in all, I gave The Que Stand three stars because even though the food was better than average, it wasn't exactly "knock your socks off" good. I also HAVE TO DOWNGRADE THIS PLACE for not being easy to find. There is no mention on the yelp page or on the website that this establishment is INSIDE of a gas station. With that being said, now that I know where its located, I would def give the Que Stand another try.
