“The clerk working this morning went out of her way to assist us when my husband was having a reaction from a bee sting and required medical attention. The afternoon clerk was helpful by giving us information about local places to stay as we couldn't continue on our trip. They both helped lessen our load in a very stressful situation. Thank you for the kind personal service. We will always stop here as we pass through from now on.”
“I love this place. A very hometown feel to it. Nice friendly owners and helpful staff. They even have a mechanic and tire guy( who is also very friendly). Goos gas prices too!”
“Decent priced fuel. Decent prices inside. Hot food is always a little dry. But its a gas station what do you expect. They do have the a big tobacco selection. Gas fluctuates cheaper here sometimes sometimes twin pine. But I go to whatever im closer to at the time. Staff is friendly and quick. Bathrooms could use a little more attention more thorough cleanings as they smell the couple times ive had to use them. Overall a decent stop.”
“Thank you to everyone at Woody’s Upper Lake Tire. You guys were a life saver. We got a flat tire on New Years Eve and we got our tire fixed on New Years Day. We were concerned that nobody was going to be opened. Thank you for the great service and for helping us out.”
“I love the guys at this store seriously are the sweetest guys they just you know they talk to you they make you feel like you you know you should be there it's nice for a change”
“I wasn't actually at the market. I was at their car wash. Now that it has been upgraded it's much better than it used to be. The garbage cans by the vacumns need to be emptied more often. The homeless come & rummage thru them & throw the garbage on the ground & don't pick it up. These garbage cans stink because there always full. The vacumns are great. I always get my car vacumned well here. Lots of times when I pull into the car wash bays there is mud & dirt that somebody cleaned off there truck & it's been there for a few days. Great water pressure..They do accept cash & CC'S.”
“It's my go-to place when I'm on that side of town. The staff is friendly and they have pretty good sales on beverages. The gas prices are reasonable and all of my friends go there. They also accept the EBT food card and they have a car wash...you don't have to go in to pay if you have a credit card.”
“No joke, these people are a lifesaver! We had run out of propane, and had sent our application for new client a little too late, and it was a long holiday weekend. Even though at first they told me they probably won't be able to fill the tank, the answering service ladies tried their hardest to get ahold of the owner and the on call guy and made sure my baby girl how to warm house and utilities in freezing weather. They are amazing people! I'm glad I'm their new client.”
“This is my neighborhood market, they are sweet ladies that work there and it's always clean, good bathroom that's not a port a potty and I got a lucky hands there to pick scratches cool spot.”
“Sounds so alluring.3 Brothers Travel PlazaOasis right hereMiddle of nowhere when ya gotta stop, gas, pee, something to drink and 'git' back at it.Here ya go. Neat n clean. Not much here but there is quite enough to choose from.”
“Easy to maneuver parking/fuel area, friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive staff made a very smooth experience of a very busy store. I'm extremely pleased with this CLEAN store and grounds, and very happy with their reasonable price for fuel! Will definitely return whenever I'm in the area.”
“I like this gas station the stuff at this gas station are very very very very very polite and caring and very very great and very nice I am going to keep on going to this gas station I like this gas station a lot and the staff are very very caring and nice”
“Love this place! Everyone is always super nice. Joanie was an absolute sweetheart! She showed me a life hack using the prepaid cards that saved me money! Thank you!”
“One of the best places to get gas. It's owned by Robinson Rancheria. I think it's a bit cheaper than Costco or Safeway Gas. I paid $4.13/gallon for regular. This is my second time getting gas here before heading back home.”
“Thank you, thank you, thank you ladies and gents! I so appreciate the customer service and care here at Chevron/Aztec Grill. I feel they go above and beyond on the daily in service and quality but this time Iris made my day! It goes without saying that Iris and the ladies in the Aztec Grill already do a wonderful job but today Iris proved just how much they care about their customers. I felt as though I was being a pain asking for my potatoes a particular way the last couple times going in and ordering but much to my surprise I was proven wrong today when I went in to order my food and Joni, Angela, and Iris both excitedly told me that Iris mastered my potatoes. And! Yes, she did! Thank you ladies and the gents that kindly take my order with care and good attitude. I just have to add in... This team goes beyond their duty for their customers/community. They truly do care and when it really matters, these people will go the extra mile. Thank you Julius, Joni and crew for caring so deeply for your customers.”
“Lake County's Best Fueling Station for so many reasons. I rarely pass this location without going in. Great selection in store as well as some dining options at the station. The staff is always courteous. Car wash is also good there.”
“Stopped in for some gum and to use the restroom, super friendly, helpful staff. Gave me a token for the potty; clean restrooms. Prices consistent with other locations. Great experience!”

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.
