“I never thought I’d leave a review for a gas station—that’s usually the last thing I’d do. But the hospitality and the kindness of the clerk honestly made me stop and think, “Wow.” Most places don’t even acknowledge you, but here I was greeted with genuine warmth and respect. I don’t even know their name, but every time I come here, I leave feeling comfortable and happy. Great customer service really does make all the difference.”

“Don't let these 1 star reviewers keep you from saving money at the pump. These reviewers are coming here everyday to fill up their own vehicle with gas or diesel egardless of their personal grudges. This is here you will find the best price in Chicago. ✌️”

“I ran in just to grab a sandwich and upon leaving, my car wouldn't start, I was scared n cold but the gentleman working the Register saw that nobody offered any help so he got someone from the subway shop to run his register while he ran out and jumped my car. I asked if there was anyone I could share this with, like his boss and he just smiled and said please drive home safely. I really hope his supervisors will read this and recognize his above and beyond service. I'm not from this state but will return with people like are here. Tonight and from now on I'm gonna do the pay it foreward thing. So thank you, gas station man, n thanks chicago”

“High quality gas station, walked here so I didn’t need the car wash, but it’s an option. Has lots of option for foods, drinks, and other items. The gas is a bit expensive though. The employee was cool, ringed my stuff up fast.”

“Props to Thortons and the store manager here, Erik, the store is clean and all stocked with the friendly customer service that makes something as annoying as pumping gas not as exhausting. It was quick, clean and friendly and a 20/10 experience! All I got was a monster and a muffin and the customer service was so nice I went back 4 chips!”

“Probably the best experience I've had at a Shell Gas Station. I got locked out of my car and had to request a lockout which was 1 hour for someone to come by and unlock my car for me, I asked inside the Shell if they would be okay with me staying inside while I wait for someone to come by and help me out and they were more than happy to do so. I waited roughly an hour and the hospitality while I was waiting was exceptional. The same associate that greeted me offered me something to drink and even offered suggestions to how I can get help quicker. One of the best experiences I've had at any gas station, I would highly recommend going inside if there's anything they could help you out with even if it's the same situation as I was in.”

“I stop here quite a bit because it's near work. Probably the least run down of the small local gas stations. Majority of the staff is friendly. Would get 5 stars if it wasn't randomly closed in the early morning hours”
