“Originally happened across Hyvee simply needed some essentials while staying in a hotel nearby - found a couple items that I loved so while visiting again, we had to stop in and pick them up!
It is on the pricier side compared to Walmart but I believe the quality of the fresh food items were alot better than their competitor.
The Bakery is also a great place to grab some sweet treats!!”
“Great selection of wines and spirits at reasonable prices. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, helping me find exactly what I needed. The store was clean, well-organized, and had some great local craft options. Highly recommended!”
“Everybody loves a Love's gas station! They have some of the best stuff and lots of hot food options also! They also have an RV stop located near the gas station where RVs can go and take care of their specific needs, I thought that was a nice touch!
Even though I'm from the area they had a Chicago coffee cup that I absolutely loved so I had to buy it! Such a great gas station and the customer service was top-notch! Not to mention they have a Bojangles attached to the restaurant so if you'd like to have a nice sit-down meal that would be a great option!”
“I’d like to think Carolyn Nesby for her most wonderful service and she’s very cordial and very nice and there’s another gentleman in there. He happens to be African-American. Very good chicken very good service. The cashiers were nice. Carolyn was exceptionally nice the gentleman the African-American gentleman back.

“I like Qik-n-EZ because they provide free air, generally have good prices on their gas, have good prices for soda refills, and are supportive of the cycling community.”
“Stopped here to get directions and it was a good thing, too. The young man was very friendly, and the store was clean. Might stop for gas and a snack next time I'm down that way.”
“no fresh mint, no cilantro, nasty looking red onions, no plain yogurt, what is going on??? keep the store stocked with BASIC food please! EDIT: their produce delivery truck broke down so produce was delivered behind schedule which explains why they were out. Totally understandable!”
“The attendant was very friendly. I used my debit card to purchase gas st the pump. When I was done, it didn't give me a receipt. I had to go inside to get one. The attendant could tell I was upset, she smiled, said she was sorry and I felt better. She wished me a Happy New Year. Due to employees like her, I'll definitely be getting my gas here more often.”
“I recently went to the Hy-Vee bakery looking for a cake for my sons birthday. As I was looking through the cake selection book I happened to look over and up behind the bakery counter and I saw the most fantastic cheeseburger cake. I spoke with Monika, and found out that it was a specialty cake that she had just added to display. I asked if it was possible to customize it as my son eats plain hamburgers and would find the humor in that and Monika was very accommodating. The cake turned out so amazing. Monika is so creative and the cake turned out so good. A big THANK YOU to Monika for being just so nice and accommodating but also a fantastic creator of beautiful tasty cakes!”
“Shout-out to the pharmacy staff! Thank you for being OPEN on Sunday! This is incredibly helpful, particularly for people who had an urgent care / ER visit after-hours. CVS allows customers to fill their prescription and get to feeling better! Thank you!!”

“Loved their pizza for yrs and yrs!!! Bread sticks with cheese are the best! Quick service! Breakfast pizzas with bacon or sausage fabulous too! Great to take to woman's mtg or get togethers for brunch or graduations.”
“Hector is just flat out awesome!!! He has been my pillar mechanic since he established his business here & pretty much the only person that has worked on my vehicles. I have also had the privilege of referring some friends to him, and the results were as expected: people were very happy & satisfied with the overall effort, pricing, & quality of work done for them! Beyond the work itself, he’s just a cool dude who’s nice & reasonable to deal with. I highly recommend Hector and Fast Stop; especially before thinking about taking your vehicle to a retail priced dealership mechanic’s bay!!! LoCoJr.”
“Drew was the upmost, professional great employe anyone can come across! Helped us out with our inquiries and even helped us get our car going on the road. He definitely has one of the best personality. He’s the reason that brings smiles to his locals. Gives hope to humanity!”
“My gas station of choice. I buy my gas here and my morning soda pop. All the staff are very friendly and polite. Love stopping in here. They also have a red box outside too.”

“It's a typical circle k gas station. It has a variety of fountain drinks and slushes to help cool you off during the summer. Along with drinks in the fridge. It has a handicap ramp for those in need.”
“Sara always helps me when I come in. She's always smiles and being friendly. No matter what she has a great attitude. If it wasn't for her I would go somewhere else. Thank you guys for the great service”
“Seriously one of the nicest gas stops I’ve been to. Cashier was very sweet and personable. She didn’t have to, but she told me about a coupon deal for gum that ended up saving me a lot of money. Unfortunately the coffee was cold, but I was there very late at night.”
“Stopped for fuel en route to Madison, WI on June 30, 2024. Place was clean, organized & service friendly. Fuel was a bit high but there was an air compressor & I needed to fill my left rear tire. I had some trouble & a friendly man, naned Mike, I think, came by to offer assistance. A local, he showed kindness by his assistance & talked about selling fire fighting equipment as I'd mentioned Pierce Mfg was formerly a client of mine. *Thanks 'Mike!'*
There were two nice-sized grassy areas close by in which I could exercise my Lab & terrier dogs, also traveling with me.
I stopped again en route South in late July since I'd had a positive 1st visit!
*Make Casey's in Hudson, IL your fuel stop on I-39*”
