Trading Post

It’s not often that a gas station instigates loyalty in the average consumer, but the local Etna avenue «Trading Post» has overturned that idea for me. Fairly recently this already well maintained location turned a section of the store into a craft beer corner, and the selection is amazing! it’s nice to see a gas station pursuing quality for local residents. This is definitely my place to stop now for carry-​out beer– the prices are reasonable and the selection good. the local Huntington beer options have been enriched greatly by a few thoughtful businesses, and the Post is definitely high on that list!

Visiters to Huntington, GO HERE. Probably the best breaded pork tenderloin sandwich out there, anywhere, except for homemade. I don’t live in Huntington, but this is where I want to eat when I go there. Frankly, i’d drive an hour or more to eat here.
Yes, five star for gas station food. 5 star because it is difficult to find a true batter-​breaded deep fried pork tenderloin even in tenderloin country! It is 100 times better than Nick’s Kitchen folks. Why? Because it’s not pounded to a mushy nearly ground up thin version of the real thing and it’s not a crumb-​batter reminiscent of frozen shrimp to deep fry. This is a piece of sliced pork tenderloin simply hand batter-​breaded fresh and served up on a basic bun, as it should be!
The other favorite of mine is not for the faint of heart, the mystifying deep fried breaded cheeseburger. It’s a frozen thing in a crumb batter and homemade just wouldn’t be the same or as good. Yes, you can like tapas, and sushi grade tuna, and Michelin star restaurants and still appreciate a processed grease bomb every now and then. Something that defies nature. The grease bomb of all time, a breaded cheeseburger where the volcanic lava of processed cheese oozes out of the thinner than thin breaded beef cheeseburger. If you can appreciate the dregs of something like a pizza pocket every now and then you may appreciate this burger.
Don’t let the breaded cheese burger scare you from the real star which is the breaded tenderloin sandwich. I cannot imagine anyone who likes a good sandwich not appreciating this breaded tenderloin. Probably the best sandwich in Huntington or for miles around.
Ye, it is a gas station convenience store with a food counter. Order at the counter, they prepare the food, and you take it to a booth where a TV is perched on the wall, or get it to go. They have some basic sides and i think they sell fried chicken also but i can’t get past the two things reviewed above.
