I did say I was going to knock something up to go with the BP servo.....like a small snack bar.

First I MOCed this up on a normal 8x16 base plate.



Then I shifted it to the BP base plate.


I haven't thought of any stickers yet for this, I'll have a good head scratch over it !
Comments welcome and keep on bricking everyone !

It's really cute!

Very well done - honestly captures the feel of a snack bar at a petrol station

Thanks 'AwesomeStar' for that nice comment, yeah it is kind a cute - I was basing it a little on the old 675 snack bar from 1979 (man, I loved that little set - it went perfectly with my 377 Shell servo too)

If you re-built it in white instead of red, you could brand it as a Muzz Buzz drive through coffee shop.

[lightningtiger]

Yeah, thanks for the comment 'jonwil' - there is a reason for the red - everything else is either white or grey mostly and I choose to have some colour - also that those parts I really only have in red (like the door and shutters with their respective frames). At least you didn't say Starbucks !
I'll take your idea on board and use more white than red - I think we only have one of these in Adelaide your speak of and it's an oddly shaped coffee stand that's for sure!

Looks perfect as a kebab shop as it is.

Really nice! Clever use of some parts like those white "doors" (sorry don't find the right word in english) and of course it looks even better with the stickers

[lightningtiger]

Thanks 'BlueBard' for your very knid comments , those white doors are actually from the 2005 fire truck and yes, I love stickering now - it totally brings my MOC's to life !

You should make it a Kit-Kat Stop Revive Survive, because it looks just like one. I used to looooove those so much on road trips when I was younger.

Isn't the Bushells Stop Revive Survive now, great idea, not in the town but at the roadhouse/truck stop - some of them have them too ! (I would need minifig Koala's in a car though !)

Great Snack Bar, lightningtiger

I like that you used those fire truck pieces, and it fits nicely next to your BP gas-station.

Very nice! I like the little coffee stand look it has. We have a couple of these in my town (including one with a gimmick: the servers are all women wearing bikinis. I've never been to that one, but I'm willing to bet that many of the people who have been don't necessarily go for the coffee).

That's an absolutely amazing City MOCset, lightningtiger!

I really it!

It's very simply - but maybe it's even that which makes it looking that classic and realistic!
I really like the exterior design as well as the interior.
The only thing I miss is a small table to stand outside and have your snack.
Otherwise it's perfect.

I really hope that TLG will offer us a snackbar or hamburger stall like this one next year!

Very, very well done!

Man, you're on fire, MOC-a-day lightningtiger! And producing good stuff! At this rate you'll have a whole town in two weeks.

I like this snack bar, and yes, the fire truck doors are a cool idea; they give it a kind of temporary look which fits well.

Keep on bricking indeed!
