“I was glad to find this Chevron because my gas tank was really getting low and I didn't want to get stranded on the road. However, it seems like Chevron gas is almost always more expensive than other brands.”

“this'll most likely become a must visit for us as a rest stop to grab some gas and fill up the car or actually stop and use the restroom. we had gotten off on a previous exit with a gas station that rudely refused to provide access to the facilities so we did a quick search and this was the next closest to populate for us and we made our way. the staff was nice and the men's restroom was extremely clean when i visited. i would also note that it might've just been luck but there weren't that many people inside or cars parked there.”

“Hands down the best gas station to stop at. Extremely friendly and helpful workers who go out of their way to help. The stores clean, the bathrooms are clean and they have a little of everything if you happen to break down in their parking lot. I'd give them 10 stars if I could.

“This relatively new gas station is part of Ted’s Travel Center and consists of the gas station, convenience store and an A&W restaurant, which we are not sure if they are all-one-in-the-same or just collocated. There are numerous gas pumps, which are all located under a covered pavilion, but unfortunately you are paying California gas prices, wow. There is plenty of parking around the entire complex and the outside area appears to be well-maintained. Inside you will find a well-stocked store and again, with highway pricing. The restrooms, well I guess they do the best they can, remember, they are not the ones making a mess, it’s all of us and our fellow travelers. The self-service coffee/soda area was very clean at the time of our visit, which was around 0830 hours. However, it is not all bad, we met a wonderful store employee by the name of Leslie, who was simply the best, warm, friendly and very helpful with a great smile and personality and wanted to make sure we recognized her.”

“Not a bad place other than the fuel prices, but this is california. Government wants all those taxes. Place is clean, subway was very good. Prices are a little above average but not enough that you would notice. Maybe a quarter of a dollar more. The lady in subway was cheerful. I will be back for sure. The food was pretty good for subway. She actually keeps it clean and tidy in there.”

“I stopped here to use the bathroom and pick up a couple of energy drinks while driving a long stretch of the I-40. Prices for snacks and food seemed on par with most other stops on this route. They have prepared hot Indian food for sale (didn't try it) and a dining area at the rear of the store. Bathroom was being cleaned late at night, and I got a chance to use it right after it was cleaned-- no complaints and I'm assuming they are keeping it clean on a regular schedule. One suggestion is to put in more lighting, like cool white or something. The entire place is very poorly lit at night so it gives it a tired feel. This isn't a preferred stop for me though because they have no EV charger station.”

“Hard working people in there. They have a clean store, clean restrooms, very good selection of India made cookies very good quality. Their fried chicken is way better than any chicken fast food joint, they have Indian food... They do a great job.”

“I have to agree that the male bathroom was clean and the cashier was funny and charismatic. It doesn't matter if you need gas or electricity, this gas station is a great place to stop.”

Read the postLove'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.
