Europe has truck stops too.
I went to one in Ireland where they sold Irish coffee and it was sublime.
Sure, but they’re on the wrong side of the road
That works out well, I’d drive in the wrong side of the road too if I was a few Irish coffees deep!
Lol good answer
So how do people get to them?
That’s not a truck stop.
Rest stop?
It’s literally just a Taco Bell
That’s just a stop. You usually see this of the side of the highway after an exit, and there will be a few other food options and gas stations available.
this one will give you food and gas!
Isn’t it just coffee then?
Pacifica, CA. I went there once. They have a walk up window on the ocean side. Guess they started serving booze.
Not fair the Pacifica location is the Taj Mahal of Taco Bell.
OP image looks decent, I would send them to the Taco Bell in Kettlemen City in August for a terrible image.
Linda Mar taco bell is a whole different level. Where else can you surf a usually barely decent often closing out wave with various degrees of nasty runoff from the parking lot, 10,000 kooks, and great whites, and then take a break on a cold norcal beach drinking a boozy Baja blast freeze?
(As I type all that out I realize it doesnt sound great but honestly Linda Mar can sometimes be totally heaven on earth)
They have a full bar at this location.
What ungodly hour did they take that picture? That parking lot is always impossibly full lol.
Probably photoshopped everything out. The beach and Bell were slammed when I went as well.
That location does look somewhat nice. A pity they only sell organic waste in there.
Everyone keeps thinking this is a highway stop. Yeah no. Thats not a highway. I am pretty sure that is just a tacobell at the edge of a farm town.
So yeah apparently it couldn’t be comprehended.
I think they’re referring to people actually eating that crap

You Americans should see the truck stops in the Netherlands. You can have proper food and bathrooms/showers actually look nice.
Those exist here, too. The US is a very big place (your whole country is the size of a small state) with a ton of truck stops, there’s bound to be crappy ones especially in the middle of nowhere.
Not sure that’s a truck stop in the photo, though. Looks like a fast food/gas pit stop for general travelers.
I drove from UK through Germany. There were soo many rest stops, well equipped with toilets, seating, plenty of parking, sometimes ev charging - I was gobsmacked.
That anyone would want to eat at Taco Bell? I’m confused.
Going by their sales its a lot of people: https://www.qsrmagazine.com/story/top-50-fast-food-chains-ranked-2025/
I won’t say its food that’s good for you, but I do love it occasionally.
I used to eat it more often than I should, then at some point it got more expensive than just going to locally owned actual Mexican restaurants. So now I just do that. The food is way better, cheaper, and you get more food. And it feels good to support local rather than some enormous publicly traded corporation
crunchwrap, nacho fries. they got my number. granted I have not eaten fast food in years. when it was a paltry amount I indulged in it to regularly but now it might as well be costingtons.
I tend to make my own tex-mex, but there’s a place nearby that I love to go to when I’m feeling down.
That said, sometimes when I’m out and I want something “close enough” that I can eat while driving (one hand and I can drop it without it going everywhere) I get a bean and cheese burrito with a cup of nacho cheese.
I think it’s more that the Taco Bell is seemingly in the middle of nowhere, but still has a bunch of people at it. That’s my read anyway
It’s wild to pretend that the Crunchwrap Supreme isn’t delicious as hell
I love a bean burrito with extra onions, grilled, because I’m cheap.
It’s a pretty disgusting place to eat.
I’m not sure I quite comprehend it.
Car = bad.
Does Europe even have that much open land left?
Do you believe all of europe is one mega city?
Be pretty killer if it was though.
Can I interest you in a Japan?
That was my biggest culture shock. I expected never ending cities and suburbs like in New England.
Bro, go a like 5 miles west and it’s all cornfields and shit.
Paris is a bit like that, walk all day and you’re still in the center, but that’s an exception.
I havent read that much of it, but I imagine Europe also has mega cities in the Judge Dredd documentaries.
I waa going to write something snarky but instead I’m just going to recommend you spend some time browsing google earth or playing geoguesser.
Go with the snark. Thats what my comment was made with.
Europe is mostly an endless sea of knolls with quaint windmills and no internet access.
I knew it!
Someone really ought to do something about all those evil windmills
There’s a lot of freaking wild lands in Europe. Just travel anywhere around and you’ll notice right away. Some of the most beautiful naturescapes are in Europe.
Listen, it’s not our fault if you guys live in the backrooms!
what am i lookig at, american?
A wide expansive scenery to accompany the finest gourmet poop that only Taco Bell can create.
Freedom!
Our very worst fast food chain after Chicfilet.
Suddenly late stage capitalism.
Tbf this is how northern scandinavia looks like, especially certain parts of iceland id say.
Iceland yes, but Norway and Sweden usually have trees unless you’re way up in the mountains.
I literally am right now so yeah. But i do agree most places have trees, but starting with mellannorrland there are highlands which are very barren. Its just that basically nobody lives here.
Norway as had a different policy than Sweden so we stil have a rural population. And spart from the really northern part we dont have that taiga “look”
The cartoonist Kellerman even comments on it when he is driving to Arjeplog from Norway how Norway is like Lord of the Rings and then when you get to Sweden it’s Lilja4Ever
Yeahhh thats sweden…
How else would they get a taco in Kansas?
Ever hear of a boat smart guy? Sheesh
Nah. You don’t have to tip there. They’d be fine
i swear ive been here in project zomboid
I’m pretty sure it used to be the Spiffo’s at the north end of Rosewood.
