“I want to give some special props to Gail and Z at this Shell station. Stopping for gas and convenience store items is usually just a quick in-and-out, but the way these two treat customers makes a real difference. From the moment I walked in, they greeted me with a smile and treated me with genuine kindness. You can tell they take pride in their work and care about the people who come through the doors. The store itself was clean, organized, and fully stocked — not just the basics like snacks and drinks, but little things that make a road trip or even a regular day a lot easier. The bathrooms were kept in good condition too, which isn’t something you can say about every gas station. Everything about the stop was smooth and hassle-free. What stood out most though was Gail and Z going the extra mile. They didn’t just ring me up — they carried on a friendly conversation, asked if I found everything I needed, and made me feel welcome. That type of service makes this Shell more than just a gas station; it makes it a reliable spot where you know you’ll be treated right. I’ve been to plenty of convenience stores and fuel stops where the staff barely look up from the register. Gail and Z are the opposite of that — respectful, upbeat, and genuinely helpful. They give this Shell location a great reputation. Next time I’m in the area, this is where I’ll stop, not just for gas, but because good people like them make the whole experience”

“My husband & I used Miles as our mechanic about 30 years ago. They always gave us excellent service The only reason we stopped going to them was we started leasing our cars & all maintenance was covered at our dealership. Had to buy a second car recently. Took my car in yesterday for a break job I'm please to say the same quality service was given to us. Miles is a family owned shop. They are very professional & friendly. I would highly recommend Miles. They are good and most importantly they are honest. Never do unnecessary work. Glad to be back with you guys Mike & Todd. You guys rock.”

“Gas sold $.10 - $.20 cheaper than other gas station convenience stores. The only negative is having to wait for pump to open up as there are normally lines. Is it worth the extra time to save a few $$? I say yes unless you are in a hurry!”

“Honest, fair prices, and quality work! Took my SUV in for a potential cracked head gasket issue said all I needed was a radiator cap. Saved me over $3,700 plus saved me over 50% on a brake job. My finances are extremely tight so that was a big deal for me. Could the customer service be better (not Dave)? Yes, it could but they're good people who get the job done and can save you money!”

“Wow!! If you haven’t had a chance to visit this neighborhood gem in north st.pete. Then 9th & 9th is where you wanna be! What Else!” Is his catch phrase, lol. No-no not to be overbearing but to let you know they have just about ANYTHING you need.. Soooo what else do you want? I love it!!! Also I’ve lived in this area for many years, and I have a measurable difference when I think of the previous owners approach to customer service, care and the community. This is very different in the most enjoyable way. Every experience is FAST cool and often funny?.. The coolers are SUPER COLD!!!! the varieties of items are endless. And the price points on ALL items are in my opinion completely unmatched in the entire city of St.Pete! ( if you need a better example, see photo attached.) I believe this new group of owners have they’re eyes and fingers on the pulse of its community first!! Word on the stree is -that guy Monik- behind the counter, his catch phrase was soooo popular.. They opened a whole new convenience store right across the street, and named it… “WHAT ELSE!!!!” Brilliant!!! …”

I was only charged what I used 24-01-22Original review:I had a terrible experience when I pre pay 45$ for the gas and I only 23$. The teller who was obviously unfaithful said it will be refunded directly through my credit and it never happened. So basicallyI was robbed around 2:30 PM on the 28th of Dec”

“The cheapest gas in town, and great prices inside. I always get snacks and drinks when I stop by. Also, when the last hurricane went through, this was one of the only places that still had any gas. As others have said, the owner has a very no nonsense attitude, which some take as rude, but I think he's very efficient, and of course the other two guys are always friendly and go out of their way to remember your name, etc. Great store all around, one of the local gems.”

“I have never had a more positive experience than I did with Asma (and I hope I didn't her name wrong, please forgive me if I did, I should have wrote it down as I'm terrible with names) today. She helped me get what I needed. So amazing and friendly. So often service employees don't go above and beyond and who can blame them it's the most overworked underappreciated job there is. But this woman helped me it seemed at expense of herself. I hope that wasn't the case, but she just has the kindest heart I've come across in a long while. I will be going to this gas station instead of wawas down the street just because of her alone. I was truly humbled and amazed by her kindness. Thank you. So much.”

Highly recommend for anglers passing through!”

Read the postLove'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.
