“I own a landscaping company. I am at this gas station every day/multiple times a day sometimes. Without Rick (the store manager) this gas station would be in complete shambles. He is the only person who keeps this place running day in and day out. There's never a day off for Rick. Higher up management does not give him the respect he deserves, and it is despicable. This is a 5 star review for Rick. The best dam gas station manger I ever met. Always friendly, always gets the job done even with his hands tied. I'll gladly take my 15+ thousand dollars a year to another gas station if upper management doesn't take care of their people. Point blank period”
“Best Gas Station nearby! Super convenient for quick fresh breakfast & lunch. Had an amazing conversation with John the manager letting him know how pleased I was with the establishment being so clean and organized. Highly recommend Scooters Deli Mart!”
“One of my favorite convenience stores/gas stations. This is one of the more original style Cumberland Farms. It's an interesting experience just based on that. There aren't many left. A nice comfortable easygoing store that has everything you need, kept well-stocked, and you can get in and out of quickly. It's relaxed without that "megastore stress" feeling that the big Cumberland Farms have. Pumps are easy to get to, and close to the store itself. Parking close to the store entrance is also usually available and easy in/out. Plenty of additional parking if necessary not as close but still not far. Opens early and stays open late. But best of all really, and what has a lot to do with the relaxed comfortable feeling of the store, is the great service - very friendly, pleasant, helpful, and welcoming. This has been the case every time I've gone in there for probably some years. I usually go at night or maybe late afternoon so I can't be sure of things there earlier in the day, but every time I've gone,it's been great”
“Clean inside, clean outside, the one person I delt with actually did what I asked. $10 on pump 4. Not $4 on pump 10 like other gas stations. And she was very pleasant”
“I inadvertently locked my keys and phone in the car and had to waited a long time for AAA to come.Your employee, Adam was so understanding. I hope you appreciate this young man, and wanted you to know how much I appreciated his kindness that day.”
“I signed up for the Speedway Membership Card it saves you .03 on every gallon of gas you buy. Saves me $1.80 every week unless I need to fill up more than three times a week. That's $7.20 for a four week month.$93.60 for 52 weeks.That's almost a hundred dollars back into my pocket. Ask for the Membership Card! The way cost of living keeps going up, find ways to save, here is just one little way.”
“I frequently go here since its so close to my house. There are a few things that need to be fixed at the store. I really do enjoy coming here it's just they are out of my cigs all the time. Some one watchs videos while they are working and don't attend to customers as he could. But most that work here are super sweet. Always saying hi to me. Reminding me to put my number in for rewards. Etc. And it's always clean. Mainly the person watching the videos instead of attending to customers. And the cigarettes being out are my only complaints. This store is great. Maybe just needs to be updated and definitely needs a brand new slushy machine. That's always down. You have a great team working here.”
“I can't say enough good about this pharmacy. These guys are understaffed... not their fault, but that doesn't stop the kind folks in the pharmacy from spending as much time as needed with each customer and working tirelessly to get it right. I will go to this Pharmacy over the others in the area (which I have tried) every time. The staff is kind, knowledgeable, professional and knows all the tricks to get you your drugs at the best rate possible.”
“I went there one night Ivy was my cashier. She was so polite. Her energy was awesome. The world needs more people like her in it. She definitely Brighten up my day just wanted to say thank you Ivy.”
