The Filling Station
The Filling Station is one of the most known restaurants in the Circle of Orange. What used to be a working gas station in the 1920's is now a quaint restaurant with good food and a memorable atmosphere. Located throughout the restaurant are old gas pumps that make the environment that much more distinct. The mission statement of The Filling Station states, " Our intent is to integrate our restaurants with the historical significance of each community in which we operate by creating a nostalgic atmosphere that reflects the local communities history and heritage."
