“Hi absolutely love this place, I go in and get my $10 worth of gas and occasionally something from the deli that they have. They're always so nice, polite and courteous. This reminds me of the little bodegas that we had up north. Prices are a little high but that's expected for a convenience store but that is what convenience is. If I run out of something at home the store usually has it or something similar. I don't mind paying the extra cost because I know I'm going to get treated well. You guys are absolutely fantastic, you're appreciated by this lady.”

“This Publix was great! The staff was so friendly and helpful. I went in early morning right after they opened on the way home from the gym. This wasn't my regular Publix so I was unsure if the layout. I was greeted by several friendly employees and they were all helpful in guiding me to find certain items and were helpful answering a few questions I had about products. Even the cashier and young man bagging my groceries were very pleasant as we conversated for a minute. My quick trip in led to a great experience. A+ for the staff here!”

“My husband and I are from Bartow we've shopped at the one there for many year's lately they have not had everything we've gone to the store for and it's really irritating. So we started going to the one in highland City they ended up being the same way. My husband loves your Publix tea can not get it anywhere but PUBLIX. So when he went into the one in highland City to get his tea they were out. When he asked the girl if she could see if they had any she said oh we don't sell that tea. So we started coming here to this location so far so good thank you everytime he's come in you have had his tea. Thank you so very much. Today he even switched to have his medicine picked up at this location.”

“This Circle K is conveniently located right off of North Charleston Ave. I filled up and had to use the restroom. The restroom wasn't exactly what I would call, the cleanest restroom I've ever used. If you're getting gas or a drink and a snack then this particular Circle K is for you. If you're stopping there for a trip to the restroom you might want to keep going, to somewhere, anywhere else.”

“Around 10:00 PM I arrived at this gas station after I had just gotten a flat tire, they were closing already but the owner decided to open the register again just so I can buy the items I needed to get my tire fix, not only that he fix it for me and took us a good amount of time to get it fix, after he was done I was so thankful for him that I wanted to give him some money just because i didn’t know how to repay him, he told me not to worry about it he only did it to help me. People like this deserved the world. I recommend you to come to this gas station when ever you need tire plug or tire repair kits, or anything else they offer. If you want a friendly treatment.”

“The staff of this Pilot Flying J in Bartow, FL are outstanding, always attentive and professional. The store is well kept, clean and smelling nice. They will always make you a fresh, soft, steaming hot pizza with a smile on their face. Amazingly, the pizza is better here than any pizza franchise store I have been to anywhere in Polk County. Better than Pizza Hut, Domino's, Papa John's, Little Caesar's, CiCi's, and Hungry Howie's, hands down. Can't recommend this location enough.”
