About these prices: Buc-ee’s does not publish a drinks price list. Coffee prices are the most common listed prices we found in October 2026. Fountain and refill prices come from 2025 and 2026 news and customer reports, and they change by store. Check the sign at the cups.
What Drinks Does Buc-ee’s Have?
Every travel center has the same core drink areas. What is in the cold case changes by store and by state.
Soda fountain
A long wall of fountain sodas, teas and lemonade with stacks of foam cups. You fill your own cup and pay at the register.
Icee station
Frozen Icee drinks are standard at every location. Flavors vary by store.
Coffee bar
Self-serve house blend, dark roast and decaf, plus iced coffee.
Cold cases
Bottled water, sodas, juices, sports drinks and energy drinks.
Alcohol
Some stores sell alcoholic drinks. What you will find depends on the state and local rules.

Fountain Drink Prices Prices vary
The fountain is the best deal in the store. In 2022 a Buc-ee’s district manager said the chain sold more brisket sandwiches than its 69-cent fountain drinks, which shows how cheap the cups were then. Prices have gone up since, but they are still low.
| Date reported | Cup | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 2022 | Fountain drink | $0.69 |
| End of December 2025 | Largest foam cup | About $1.09 |
| 2026 | 42 oz foam cup | About $1.19 |
At $1.19 for 42 oz, you pay under 3 cents per ounce. That is cheaper than almost any bottled drink in the cold case.

How Refills Work at Buc-ee’s
This catches people off guard. Refilling your own reusable cup can cost more than buying a new 42 oz foam cup.
| Report | Refill price |
|---|---|
| Facebook post, July 2025 | $1.29 |
| TikTok, September 2025 | $1.19 |
| Reddit, most recent report | $1.99 |
- Refill prices are not the same at every store, and the size of cup they allow for a refill is not always clear.
- Ask the cashier what the refill price is and the largest cup it covers before you fill up.
- If your cup is smaller than 42 oz and the refill price is higher than a foam cup, the foam cup is cheaper.

- Large Dark Roast Coffee$2.18 | 1 ct

Drink Costs for a Family Road Trip
Drinks are where a family stop stays cheap. Using the 2026 foam cup price and listed coffee prices:
| Plan | Math | About |
|---|---|---|
| 4 people, 1 fountain cup each | 4 × $1.19 | $4.76 |
| 2 adults coffee, 2 kids fountain | 2 × $2.18 + 2 × $1.19 | $6.74 |
| 4 people, 2 stops, fountain each time | 8 × $1.19 | $9.52 |
| 2 adults iced coffee, 2 kids fountain | 2 × $2.89 + 2 × $1.19 | $8.16 |
Fountain prices change by store, so expect a few cents either way.
Late-Night and Early-Morning Drinks
Buc-ee’s never closes, which makes it a safe stop for a 2 AM coffee or a cold drink on an overnight drive. The coffee bar and fountain run the whole night.
Breakfast food starts at 4:00 AM, so a 4:30 AM stop gets you a hot coffee and a fresh breakfast taco. Between midnight and 4:00 AM, pair your drink with something from the bakery case, the cold sandwiches or the Jerky Bar, which Buc-ee’s FAQ lists as available 24/7.

When Can You Buy Drinks?
Any time. Every Buc-ee’s is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and the fountain, coffee bar and cold cases never close. Hot food has set hours: breakfast from 4:00 AM to 10:30 AM and BBQ sandwiches from 11:30 AM until after midnight.
