Buc-ee’s Locations Map: Every State With a Buc-ee’s (2026 Guide)

If you’re trying to figure out whether a Buc-ee’s sits anywhere near your next road trip, you’re in the right place. Use the Buc-ee’s locations map above to see the whole picture, or pick your state in the finder below, then read on for the full breakdown. As of August 2026, Buc-ee’s operates more than 55 travel centers across 13 states, and the chain is expanding so fast that “which states have a Buc-ee’s” is a genuinely moving target. I’ve driven to a bunch of these stores across several states, so this guide pairs the map with the context that actually helps: where the biggest one is, which states just joined, and where the beaver is headed next.

How many Buc-ee’s locations are there?

As of August 2026, there are more than 55 Buc-ee’s locations spread across 13 states. The overwhelming majority sit in Texas, where all 37 stores are mapped by corridor, and where the chain was founded in 1982 and still keeps most of its stores, including the record-holding flagship.

The count keeps climbing because Buc-ee’s is in the middle of its most aggressive expansion ever, with dozens of stores announced or under construction. If you’re reading this a few months from now, assume the number is higher, and check the state finder above for the current picture.

What states have a Buc-ee’s?

Thirteen states currently have at least one open Buc-ee’s. Here’s the lineup, with the flagship or notable store in each:

State	Notable location	Highway
Texas	Luling (world’s largest)	I-10
Alabama	Multiple (Leeds, Athens, etc.)	I-20 / I-65
Georgia	Warner Robins, Calhoun, Brunswick	I-75
Florida	St. Augustine, Daytona Beach	I-95
Tennessee	Sevierville (near the Smokies)	N/A
Kentucky	Richmond, Smiths Grove	I-75
South Carolina	Florence	I-95
Missouri	Springfield	I-44
Mississippi	Pass Christian	I-10
Virginia	Rockingham County	I-81
Colorado	Johnstown (first west of Texas)	I-25
Ohio	Huber Heights (opened April 2026)	I-70
Arizona	Goodyear (opened June 2026)	I-10

Texas alone accounts for the bulk of all stores, so if you’re road-tripping the Lone Star State, you’re rarely far from one.

Where is the biggest Buc-ee’s?

The biggest Buc-ee’s in the world is in Luling, Texas, at 75,593 square feet, right off Interstate 10. It opened in June 2024 and is recognized as the largest convenience store on the planet. If you want the full story on how it beat out the new San Marcos store by a hair, we broke it down in our guide to the biggest Buc-ee’s in Texas.

Where was the first Buc-ee’s, and the first outside Texas?

The very first Buc-ee’s opened in 1982 near Lake Jackson, Texas, southwest of Houston. For decades the chain stayed inside Texas, then began crossing state lines in 2019. Florida became an early out-of-state anchor in 2021 with stores in St. Augustine and Daytona Beach, both on I-95. The real geographic leap came in March 2024, when Johnstown, Colorado became the first Buc-ee’s ever built west of Texas.

Which states just got their first Buc-ee’s?

Two states joined the map in 2026. Ohio got its first store in Huber Heights, near Dayton, on April 6, 2026, and Arizona followed with a Goodyear location near Phoenix on June 22, 2026. Both drew enormous opening-day crowds, with Goodyear alone pulling around 41,000 people on day one. If you want the on-the-ground guides, I covered both stores in detail.

Which states are getting a Buc-ee’s next?

Buc-ee’s has confirmed or begun building stores in a long list of new states, so the map is about to get a lot fuller. Among the ones in progress:

• Wisconsin: Oak Creek near Milwaukee, plus a DeForest site near Madison; the first could open around 2027.
• Kansas: Kansas City, KS, near the Kansas Speedway, under construction with a projected fall 2027 opening.
• North Carolina: Mebane, off I-40/I-85, opening November 2027.
• Arkansas: Benton opens August 17, 2026, with West Memphis to follow.
• Nebraska: Gretna, near Omaha on I-80, around 2028.
• Oklahoma: early talks around Oklahoma City, nothing formal yet.

Several more, including additional Florida and Georgia stores, are in the pipeline. We keep a running list of every announced Buc-ee’s location and its real opening date. Buc-ee’s has said it’s essentially “looking everywhere,” so more first-in-state announcements are likely.

Is there a Buc-ee’s near me?

The fastest way to answer that is the state finder at the top of this page, but the general rule holds: if you’re in Texas or the Southeast, you’re probably within an easy drive of one, while the Midwest, Southwest, and Northeast are still filling in. States like Michigan don’t have one yet, so the nearest store means crossing into a neighboring state. For live addresses and directions, the official Buc-ee’s locator and Google Maps (“Buc-ee’s near me”) are your best real-time tools.
