Brothers Food Mart

This is a convenience store and gas station with a limited take-​out menu.
Food: You’d better like fried foods if you’re buying from the counter, because that’s about all there is available, although the fried chicken is excellent and highly suggested. Not spicy, but it does have a good batter crust, and is tasty. There are also fries and jalapeño poppers, along with a few other items. The meat pies are good as well. (3 stars: very limited menu that is all fried. Get the fried chicken or a meat pie if you go)
Service: You go to the counter to order and pick up your food. Employees are nice enough, but can tend to get overwhelmed during the lunch rush. Some workers cannot speak English well, so being bilingual in Spanish helps. Separate pay at cashier station. (2 stars, for reasons noted above)
Facilities: What you would expect from a convenience store – slightly garish but functional. There always appears to be someone cleaning either inside or out, and the place is quite tidy. (3 stars. Nothing to write home about, either good or bad.)
Overall: 3 stars. You’ll get exactly what you’d expect.

This place is 2/​3rds more Ghetto than I prefer. But unlike the Whitney Food store, the crowds of people loitering outside while getting drunk is limited.
The gas is usually about 10c a gallon more expensive than Terrytown but it’s close to the house.
This also has the distinction of being the first gas station chicken I ever fobbed off on the girly…
and she liked it.
For gas station chicken, you can do a lot worse than brothers. I know it’s scary, but it’s true. And if, like this one, they have the jalapeño poppers, they aren’t half bad, either.
SOmetimes hard to get in and out of, it’s worse right now because of a tremendous amount of road work being done in the area.
