“Ronald, Rolland or maybe Robbie (forgot his name. I’m sorry) Made my pizza tonight 6/11/26 in Athens, IL. It was FIRE! I don’t ever take the time to make a review or call the store to tell them personally how great it was. It was Fresh, hot, not too much sauce and cooked all the way. He made it just like I ordered. It’s so very hard to order from a Casey’s ANYWHERE where they make it like you request and it’s actually done right. When I say extra cheese and I’m paying for it I expect it. It was done PERFECT! Can’t rave enough. I wish he worked every time I ordered. He needs to be praised for doing his job good and right. Haha just saying. I also can’t say enough about the register workers. They are always friendly and helpful! Every single one of them🫶🏼 They always great and welcome you to Casey’s. Also remind you to enter your Casey’s rewards. Thanks Casey’s for caring about your store and having great workers. They should be compensated. Keep it up. P. S. Love your mozzarella:-P”

“All star grocery is the best store to satisfy your craving. They have freshly made nachos with all the toppings. They have a wide variety of drinks and snacks to choose from. And always have the latest supply of new trendy vapes and accessories. The owner BUSH is awesome down to earth and always greets you with a smile. Customer service is top notch. This neighborhood store is highly recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I get gas and other stuff here on a daily basis, first, it's because I live nearby, and secondly, it's because the employees that work there are awesome!”

“I'd give this Walgreens a solid for. It is closest to our home and we use it for all our prescriptions. Because of its close location it's where we go. Nothing notable to mention. Just good old Walgreens.”

“Getting better since bought out but pharmacy is so backed up with long lines. They need a number thing for people as there are many who cannot stand in a long line and have to sit. Just during busy hours. It would help.”

“For this past year, Casey's in Petersburg, IL has been doing a great job with customer satisfaction. Their food is better, employees are nice, and you can tell by their work that kitchen and register employees take pride in their jobs. I don't know her personally, but they just terminated their manager, Tammy. She seemed to be the one who really built that team and got the store back on track. Sucks to see her go and I hope that Casey's can still keep up what they have going now that she is gone.”

“Love this one stop shop! They always have exactly what I'm looking for or expect to get at a gas station or convenience store. Bathroom is always sparkly clean and the staff is super friendly majority of the time, I've been there on overnights and had some that were not the people pleasers or customer service type. Prices are a bit more high here but I'll pay the little bit more in exchange for some good hospitality that serves my needs wants and vices, and allows me to empty my bladder in a clean and private space.”

“There was a VERY professional, friendly, nice, smiley thin built black young girl cashier.

I do not know her but I will definitely come to this Circle K b'cuz of this front counter young girl cashier and I live apprx 11 miles from this Circle K. Thank you for hiring her!! She IS a keeper!! 😉”

“Usually the cheapest place for for gas and cigarettes. It's right down the road from my house so I frequent it alot. Gas right now is 3.55 per gallon there it's 3.39. The staff is always friendly when I'm in there. I like the fountain soda choices also. They don't give cash back that's one thing I like about it. And sometimes the pumps don't have regular unleaded gas. But I'm just nitpicking now. Beer is always cold but they don't sell wine. That's why I give it a four star rating. It wasn't for that it'd be a five star definitely.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"I love stopping by Casey's for their delicious pizza and convenience, but what really stood out during my recent visit was the exceptional customer service. The new girl at the register was incredibly nice and made my experience even better! ?⛽Casey's always has quality food and a wide selection of items, making it a reliable stop for both fuel and snacks. But when you add friendly and welcoming staff to the mix, it takes the experience to a whole new level. Kudos to the team, and a special shoutout to the new hire for making my day! ??"”

“Store is always clean and staff is friendly and helpful. One day I needed to use the restroom and a line formed enough to let me in and use the employbehind me and I had to go bad and the staff was kind and let me use the employee restroom. Another time there was no washer fluid in any of the bins and I let staff know and they immediately came out and filled them. TJ is a great and friendly helpful employee. He's always cleaning or stocking when he's not helping customers. That kid needs a raise or promotion or both. Wish when I was in management I had an employee like him”
