“Lunch with my brother and SIL yesterday was beyond good, it was amazing! From being greeted as I walked through the door, to the excellent service, healthy portions, the rolls, and the lemon cake we shared, it was well worth the drive from Southside. We did some thrifting after and, when I returned to pick up my car, back in I went for more cake and a lovely turkey chef salad for the spousal unit. Y'all done good, really, really good!”

“I am a regular at this store, more than once a day. The cashiers and managers are great! The only reason I don’t give five stars (and they probably deserve 5 stars) is for one reason. A man that could not talk came in and pointed to something and made noise (he could not talk) the cashier said hell no and slammed down paper and pencil. Now I understand she has no clue what the guy wanted and would be better to write it down. My problem is her tact. Yelling hell no and slamming paper down. It had to embarrass the crap out of that man, it did me. I will still go to this store, just not near as often. This newer cashier really left me feeling like I’d rather spend my money elsewhere than see her treat people with disabilities like this again. This happened around 7pm on may 8th 2025”

God bless these people cuz they don't have to let us part for free or let us park at all. Just want to tell the owners of the establishment thank you so much for letting us park here for free greatly appreciated.”

Read the postLove's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees.
