Guestbook

Share your favorite Stuckey’s memory! Our guestbook is your opportunity to share those experiences with others.

Just about everybody has a Stuckey‘s story, recalling a time when they took road trips in the family station wagon and found “highway happiness” at one of our stores.

We would love to hear your most fond memories from yesterday or today, and we know others would love to share in your experiences as well. Please take a moment or two and post your comments in our guestbook.

"I grew up in the 1970s, and no road trip was complete without a stop at Stuckey's for some divinity, pecan log rolls, pecan-fried chicken (I have NEVER been able to find a recipe for this anywhere else), taffy and mixed nuts. We took a trip across the Southwest in 1973, and dad obliged us by stopping at every Stuckey's along the way. We always knew we'd find clean restrooms and cold drinks. I just got back from a road trip to North Carolina from Texas. What a thrill it was to find some real, blue roofed Stuckey stores along... Read more

Long Live Stuckey's!!!!"... Collapse

Great to see Stuckey's back in family hands again. We always stopped at their stores on our family summer vacations and never disappointed. Now, if we could only get Howard Johnson back on firmer ground. Loved those grilled frankfurters!

"Growing up, my family ran and operated MANY Stuckey store locations. From Florida to Kansas! Grandparents, Aunts and parents. Was a great childhood memory!"

My goodness I miss the long-ago times when making travels down Route 66 from Albuquerque and as a kid always on the lookout for a Stuckey's where my parents would stop for a fill-up - because back then there was a divinity treat given with a fill-up of gas :) and there was that great little store to poke around in and a lunch counter for a burger or a grilled cheese. I loved those days and glad to know Stuckey's can still be found around Georgia. Yay for Stuckey's!!

In 1969 my parents and I drove from Fresno to NJ most on Rte 66 but stopped at many of Stuckeys along the way for eats and treats. My thrill was picking a charm for my charm bracelet from every state we passed thru at Stuckeys on our journey. I heart you guys!

"Like everyone else my family made many trips to different states because of living there. Due to the fact my dad was in the Air Force. We always came back to South Carolina for visit's. We would stop at Stuckey's. I got other souvenirs but always got a Pecan Log Roll. I remember them being fatter and longer. We stopped moving around and I have not seen Stuckey's in years.

Yes at lot of it looks different and are smaller or some bigger. I found Stuckey's Pecan Log Roll. Oh boy of course I bought two. When I got home and took a bite. That took me back to my childhood. Wow. Just bought two more. Thanks for the memories. Only one problem with these is when I eat a Pecan Log Roll I run across a shell. Thank you."... Collapse

Every vacation we took in the 1960's and early 70's we would look for and stop at Stuckeys and buy Taffy and Pecan log rolls. What great memories I have of those family vacations and Stuckeys is a part of them!

I am 44 years old. When I was a kid we use to drive from Albany, OR to Eugene, OR. You use to have a stucky's on the way. You would have all sorts of warm nuts and candy. We missed it when you closed it.

My name is Kathy. When I was young, my parents used to take my two sisters and I on vacation to visit my Mom's family in Tennessee. My Dad always took Route 41 South. There were several Stuckey's along the way. Fresh hot apple cider and their famous Pecan Rolls. They were the best. They made such an impression on my family and I. I looked forward to our trips South every year. To this day, 50 years later, I still think of Stuckey's. How I wish there was one in Illinois. Thank you Stuckey's for giving me a such... Read more

I really miss Stuckey's being around my parts. It was my very favorite place of all when I was a kid, especially when traveling with my parents. I loved the Snuckey's burgers and fries,and I oh so loved the magic tricks and gag gifts they sold! (I was the prankster of the family)....And who could forget, Snuckey's pecan rolls! Wow they were the best!!!

As a child traveling in the 60's was boring but Dad kept us excited letting us know how much longer till we get to Stuckey's. We stopped at every location and always picked up a silly toys and of course pecan log. I loved my woopie cushion! I remember one trip we were getting close to our Stuckey's stop and put on our shoes all ready to go just to find out it was closed due to fire. We cried.

"Every summer, we did a road trip from Pueblo, CO to Atlanta, GA to visit my grandparents. My job was to look for Stuckey's signs. My mom loved the pecan rolls and divinity. My sisters and I loved buying a game for the road. I always wanted to eat at the grill, but we had a schedule to keep, so that never happened. Thanks for being such a wonderful memory for me!"
