“Stopped here in the middle of a winter storm, workers were a little spot of sunshine! The hot food bar was a welcome sight. Between the lady running the register and a few friendly locals we were given an alternate route, highway was closed, and reassured about the weather on our way. It was exactly what I needed.”

“We got lost and happened to stop here for refreshments and a restroom break, the women working in here were very nice and the store had a nice variety of snacks and drinks. The restroom was extremely clean and the food from the hot case that we tried was fresh and delicious, huge chicken tenders!”

“Thank goodness for this these folks! Like many others, we coasted in on fumes. Yes, the sticker shock of seeing gas as expensive as it is shocked me a little bit, but even though it was expensive (which is 10000% understandable being a one store operation and as remote as they are), I filled up because they saved me from either having to walk or call a tow truck. We were in a hurry because we had a ton of driving ahead of us still, but I wish I had spent a little bit of time here to appreciate the humor that they put into everything. To see the owner roasting people who didnt plan their trip well (or at all) and had the audacity to write a negative google review about them just makes me love this little store even more. Not sure if ill ever be back through this area, but if I am, I will definitely stop in again.”

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.
