The worst flying j in the U S. Dangerous area of town. This place is crawling with drifters and beggars. All of the employees act as if they're forced to work there. Fuel up before Tampa and don't stop there.

Horrible. Was traveling with my kids 4 and 9 and after driving 10 hours straight and refueling at this location in Florida, we parked for about 2 to 3 hours to catch a quick cat nap at approx 0130 hours before driving the rest of the way home.We were rudly awakened by Ben (Pilot/Flying Js overnight worker with beard) and told that there was no overnight parking. Even after explaining that we had no desire to overnight park and the fact that no signs nearby nor at my spot gave a time limit.So being woken up and forced to drive when I am clearly worn out puts my kids at a huge risk as they cannot drive. Hotels were not an option financially.So this is not a family travel stop because if I saw kids in the back seat and a tired parent common sense would kick in....We are going to reach out to corporate on this because it isn't the first story we have heard about. In 2020 Woman was asked to leave from a Flying Js at 0352am after arriving at 1202am. She was driving her kids from a personal situation and was driving for over 24 hours west to east coast. Due to circumstances she had no money for any type of hotel except the gas and food money.Flying Js threatened to call the local law enforcement to have them removed if she didn't leave asap.She left and 4 miles down the interstate the lady fell asleep and an accident costed on of the child's life. The lady was tested and not a single drug or any type of substance was detected. Looking into more stories like this.

Stopped at this truck stop this morning to get fuel and coffee while heading to get my load for morning. witness the store cashier young black lady get very nasty with customer while I went to coffee station. When I started get in line young lady in front me was at counter and was purchasing something and cashier kept walking way, then came back to counter and was talking about someone faking handicap. The young lady at counter told the cashier lady was handicapped. (Props to this generation young lady for sticking up for someone.) the cashier got very rude and nasty and calling young lady names as she walked way. Course lead to arguing. But what really upset me is cashier calling racial names and making threats and this is type of female that FLY N J HIRES to rep there company and team drivers? this is really type of nasty and rude people yall hire and let your employee treat customers that paying and keeping y'all in business treat customers? Y'all are okay with this? This isn't my first night here I'm a regular truck driver and i always stop in at night and have seen this young lady be so nasty and disrespectful to customers since she started working here. Then smacking gum in customer faces at cash register and treating even truck driver like garbage. (which again if it wasn't for us truck drivers, the fly n j wouldn't be needed.)this isn't first complaint on this cashier either. managers have been told and I have even spoke to manager about this young lady. I really hope y'all get it together before your rude cashier loses driver that are regulars. Doesn't seem like team driver with this young lady at night. But Ben and Racheal on night are amazing and always so welcoming and friendly need more night cashier like them.

Talk to corporate this morning about this store no surprise they seem not to care how employee treat their guest and how drivers are spoken to by cashier kashondra at night so guess this morning was my last stop here until employees know how treat and speak to drivers and is actually trained was told this morning I couldn't receive a fuel receipt and also witness the lady at night using racial slurs with profanity not a fan of company that okay with this will be taking my business to cross street to travel center for now on

I'm in Tampa next to this pilot. and almost every day I have to go here to swim because it’s closer. There is no overnight parking here. and that most importantly, the workers do not do their work at all. You have to wait for hours for a shower, even though the cabins are empty and there has been no one there for a long time. when I approached the cashier to tell the employees, she told me that there was only one staff. although these guys, as long as I’ve been standing here, are even looking to get out

I don't go to Florida in a semi truck, but some how my fuel card and rewards card got used here on pump 31 on 07/18/23 at 1:15am. Has to be a employee given out information or flying j mixing up accounts when you use app. Either way you guys must know I'm coming for whoever did it and I'm not calling police. Mr, Anderson appreciate that information white truck with orange trailer. i got people coming for the rest of that information. I know its numbers or company name on side.

They rarely have all the diesel islands open, the pumps are offset with short hoses on most lanes, so you have to stop just right or keep backing up and pulling forward to get the right tank and then def. About half the time I stop, the showers aren't working. Unless you're desperate, I'd avoid this stop and go to exit 285, 161, or the loves at exit 44 on I4.

Always takes 30 mins to get fuel here. Air hoses never work. No parking ever. Store is very slow. 1 pump always down. There is nothing good to say about this place.

No signs that say no overnight parking so why am I getting my car window knocked on at 7 am. I’ve been on a road trip in my car for 2 weeks now. I’ve slept at a different pilot, flying j or loves every night. Why am I getting my car window banged in from being knocked on at 730 in the morning! No signs for overnight parking but they’re signs that say employee parking. Food is limited and doesn’t look fresh.

Absolutely terrible pump conditions. Dont stop here if u need DEF at all. I had to buy the very overpriced DEF jug, after 3 attempts to get it to dispense DEF. I was stuck here for an hour and a half trying to get a pump that the nozzle is still attached to or the pump to function at all. The people inside are friendly and are well aware of their pump conditions, that meaning management is doing nothing about it. Im OTR. Washington to Florida. This is top 3 for the worst pilot in the country. In Tampa? You have enough business to keep up with this truck stop- you're just deciding not to.

Love Pilot and Flying J locations, but this one is the worst one to fuel, the hoses are so short that you have to fill one tank out a time, use a 25% discount from the app and it wasn't honored.You guys need to improve and change for longer hoses.

I went here on a very late night/early morning drive and desperately needed some coffee. It's right off the highway, super easy to get to, plenty of parking, plenty of gas pumps, AND there's a Cinnabon inside which is the major winner for me!! ?? It was about 5am and the freshly made cinnamon buns were AMAZING. There were also SO MANY varieties of coffee and condiments for it, so anything you're in the mood for, you'll find there. Warning⚠️: I made the grave error of getting the "extra caffeine" coffee and thought I was going to go into cardiac arrest on the road lol, so if you're not a heavily experienced caffeine drinker, just get the regular coffee or cappuccino. It'll serve the purpose without the shakes and heart palpitations ??♀️. I only had about 10 sips and those symptoms went away after about 45 minutes, so if you make the same choice I did and you're now worried, that's how long you're facing those symptoms before going back to "normal" again. It DID wake me up though ?! Overall I'd HIGHLY recommend this place for a highway pit stop. The people in the gas station and the Cinnabon inside were all super kind and friendly, it was very clean, it's a huge place with TONS of things inside to buy if you want or need just about anything, and overall, just a very pleasant experience. ??☺️ The only negative thing I will mention is that there is a large area in the far back parking area where it reeks of urine, but that's more of an issue with rude customers, not the store or it's employees, and that may have just been a one time thing when I happened to have been there. Don't let that stop you from going in because it's no reflection of the store, it's employees, or what is offered inside. ?
