'America’s Best Restaurants' to film at The Energy Station Tuesday morning

Lights, cameras and likely a few breakfast orders will be rolling Tuesday morning as the web-based "America's Best Restaurants" makes a stop at The Energy Station.

The national media group is scheduled to film at the restaurant from 9 a.m. to noon on Tuesday at the eatery in the Shelly Square Shopping Center at Shelly Road and Route 63/Main Street. Owners are inviting loyal customers to stop by during the shoot, tell a story, cheer them on and possibly land a cameo in the background of the episode.

“Who knows?” the restaurant teased in its announcement. “If you’re lucky, you may even be featured.”

Gift card giveaway

To mark the occasion, The Energy Station is giving away two $25 gift cards.

Here is how it works:

• Leave a comment on the restaurant’s Facebook post before Feb. 24, 2026.
• One winner will be randomly selected during the filming visit.
• The second winner will be chosen and announced on the restaurant’s Facebook page after the episode premieres.

The restaurant emphasized that it will never ask for credit card information in connection with the giveaway and noted that the promotion is not sponsored or administered by Facebook. Participants must be 21 or older.

"America’s Best Restaurants" travels the country highlighting locally owned eateries and sharing their stories through digital episodes and social media features.

For The Energy Station, Tuesday morning will offer a little extra buzz alongside the usual coffee and comfort fare — and perhaps a brief brush with the camera for a few lucky regulars.
