Wanting to escape the hectic <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/restaurants-bakeries-ramsey-nj\/\">restaurant<\/a> scene, he decided to seek a more peaceful lifestyle closer to home. He purchased a former gas station at 243 Route 9W in Palisades, NY, and transformed it into the original TFS, a cozy eatery that focuses on serving great burgers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In sharing his vision, the building\u2019s past inspired Stavros as both a gas station and a snack stop. He wanted to recreate that concept, serving more than just a simple snack stand. His goal was to create a larger, better dining experience. With a commitment to serving outstanding food, he revitalized the property into a straightforward, no-frills eatery that reflects his devotion to quality eats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a passionate foodie (<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">just like us at team BG)<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Stavros drew ideas for TFS from his visits to <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/gotts.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gott\u2019s<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in Napa Valley, appreciating the experience of sharing meals with family and <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/girls-day-activities-bergen-county-nj\/\">friends<\/a>. Long flights + a burger craving inspired him to bring that essence to New York, creating the iconic TFS we all know and love.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, Jake Braet, a native of Bergen County and local of Old Tappan, has stepped in as the very first franchisee of The Filling Station. With a deep-rooted connection to the brand, Jake expressed to the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BG<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> team\u00a0 that TFS has always felt like a comforting and familiar haven to him as a customer who would frequent the Piermont location with his family growing up. When the chance to partner with Stavros surfaced, Jake jumped at it, eager to bring TFS to <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/historical-homes-bergen-county-nj\/\">Bergen County<\/a> and continue the legacy established by the first two locations. With Stavros mentoring him, Jake is enthusiastic about ensuring the new location embodies the same spirit + charm of the originals.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>The Food + Menu<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-170503\" src=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/04\/the-filling-station-westwood-3-800x800.jpg\" alt=\"the filling station westwood \" width=\"450\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/04\/the-filling-station-westwood-3-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/04\/the-filling-station-westwood-3-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/04\/the-filling-station-westwood-3-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/04\/the-filling-station-westwood-3-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/04\/the-filling-station-westwood-3-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/04\/the-filling-station-westwood-3-585x585.jpg 585w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/04\/the-filling-station-westwood-3.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Customers and burger aficionados alike agree that the quality of food at The Filling Station is superior.
