“Excellent food, excellent customer service.Even though they seem kind of a little annoyed with me because I was coming in at three in the morning to order a sandwich and milk shake overall, they got me, my order quickly and the place was very clean.”
“I’ve always had great service at this Circle K.It’s one of the busiest, given the location, but the employees are always happy, professional and personable.I’d like to give a shout out to one in particular. Rob literally makes my day happy! His kind and happy personality is so infectious that I look forward and hope he’s working when I go inside for something.I don’t even mind when it’s busy there because he works hard to clear the line and still gives personalized attention to each and every customer.Being a “local guide” I tend to view what other local guides post, just to see if they tend to nitpick or are generally a dissatisfied person/customer all around with negativity on most or even all their reviews.I wish Google reviews would tweak this because there are many people that will never be pleased with any service or business, no matter how they try to please them.It’s been so challenging during this last year for everyone with this pandemic. We’ve all had to re-learn how to do everything but it’s been much more challenging for our businesses. They’ve had to rehire and retrain employees, not to mention trying to keep up with sanitizing, literally everything in the store as well as restocking. Their suppliers short on goods etc.I’m grateful Circle K has remained open and kept employees coming in for the needs of our very busy community.So, THANK YOU to all the employees, managers, suppliers etc.., especially Rob, who keeps customers like me patronizing this location specifically just to get my dose of the true meaning of what’s important in life.Edit... The store was very clean and kept sanitized ?”
“The store is pretty clean but I mainly stop at this store because of Michelle. Super friendly and very helpful. She should be training the employees. Remarkable customer service.”

“Today, Saturday, I was entitled to 50 cents off per gallon. When I went to pump it the discount wasn't on there. I came back inside and Peggy, the mgr was in the store on her day off. She came outside, the problem corrected, she pumped the gas. Some really good people work in that store.”

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.
