“Great place. Friendly staff. There's an employee named Randy who will bend over backwards to help you. My favorite Truckstop in America. I literally went 100 miles out of my way to my destination to just come here.”
“Dude looked me right in my eyes and said, wait for it...How's it going buddy..I know, right?Classic. I never would have guessed it.Ok I'm actually being stereo typical, and while it is in fun, and I have no intentions of being a tool. It could be turned into me being UN politically correct, bya politically correct tool. At any rate the rate I give this store is a 5 star rating. The cashier was friendly as I've already stated.The restrooms were clean.The soap dispensers had soap in them.The motion sensed water actually worked.And it was warm.Hand dryer, dried my hands.Soda was in the fountain drink machine.Lids, and straws in place.Delta 8, and 10 at register.Fine lady outside pumping fuel with Daisy dukes on. That's right I said Daisy dukes..All that being said yeah it's a 5 star store.And I'm a tool for being UN politically correct.I'm not even sure if I'm supposed to be doing reviews anyway.Kay Ivey should build a mega prison just for people liked me.”
“Literally the cleanest and nicest Petro I’ve been at. Been here 3 times over the last 3 weeks and every time the people are nice, the fuel lines are clean, the parking lot isn’t full of trash, grass is cut, everyone at this location truly deserves a raise because they are absolutely doing their jobs! This will always be our stop if running this route. Hands down the best and thank you all for your hard work!”

Love's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees. Picture this: Three big screens in each restaurant, tracking how fast workers greet customers, take orders, and hand out food. It's not just for show - early results say it's making service 11 seconds faster on average. "These monitors track key performance metrics in real-time, such as greet times, order processing times and the time it takes for food handoff," Love's explains. The system creates a more interactive environment, fostering friendly competition between stores.
