“I stopped in to get an oil change and there were some other things going on with my car. They refused to do the oil change that day because of the other problems. I got my car to the mechanic and went back today and got the oil change.”

“They're always quick and do a great job and they are always so nice and informative and helpful if you have questions. Very honest straight forward place. Only thing I don't like is I usually can only give them small tip when I wish I could give them large tips because they really deserve it.”

“Didn't try the gizzards, but I got gas. Seems like a very Route 66 kind of place. The restroom arrangements are kind of unusual... a unisex sink but two gendered stalls, all in the storage area. Oh well, it's all very clean, and you get to see the employees carrying our the trash as a bonus.”

“Their gas is more expensive than at other exits. Nice and clean store with clean restrooms. Very friendly employees this time. Lots of snack items that look really good! We would stop here again.”

“certainly not the friendliest people (looking at you cashier lady that has the personality of a cardboard box) but it’s typically clean. lower probability of running into someone who’s from lincoln than the in-town stations.also best selection of sunflower seeds in town”

“The location is great, but the entrance needs improvement. The store is a great size, but they don't always keep things stocked, like lids for fountain drinks. The customer service could use some improvement. Many times there's no communication, aside from the total cost. A thank you is not always in order here.”
627 North Logan Street, Lincoln IL 62656
“Typical Midwest gas station. Cheap fountain drinks, fuel, cigs, and junk food. Staff is always friendly and floor is usually pretty clean. It can get messy at the fountain drink station but that's not their fault nobody can fill up a cup of coke without spilling it all over the floor. Pretty busy in the afternoons, lines can form up pretty fast. Especially when someone is buying $10k worth of scratch offs.”

“We wanted a quick bite to eat while traveling. We stopped for gas and saw that they had a deli. Got some pizza slices and a Crispy Chicken sandwich. Both were excellent. No problems.”

“I love this store I go there almost daily. The day manager is awesome and so friendly. The entire staff staff is always helpful and friendly. Store is always clean and well stocked.”

“This gas station seems well-suited for both truck drivers (though can't speak specifically for the truck drivers) and passenger vehicles, with separate fueling areas for each. I visited with a car and found plenty of pumps available in the front, making it easy and quick to refuel without waiting. The convenience store is well-stocked with a variety of snacks, drinks, and travel essentials. They offer a good selection of fountain drinks, and for those looking for a quick bite, there’s a small grill inside that serves hot food. Additionally, there's a Steak 'n Shake attached to the station for more substantial meal options. I didn't order any food this visit. The bathrooms were well-maintained and fully stocked. Overall, it's seems to be a solid choice for both truck drivers and regular motorists looking for a clean, convenient place to refuel and take a break.”

“Seems pretty nice just caught them at a bad time. They were in the middle of tearing out all their diesel pumps for the trucks. Thankfully, they didn’t block off their truck parking, but the truck or side of the gas station interior was closed off for renovations too, including their beverage coolers. Shake shack was unaffected.”

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.
