“As a food vendor it's always a pleasure supporting another small business. You be a fool to just exchange your tanks elsewhere rather than bring them here. Big box stores don't need your $$ shop local. Love the old school feeling with newspaper clippings and chatting about sports when I go in there.”
“They have the cheapest gas price's before everyone else, while still having quality gas. The gas pump's and outside doesn't look to hot but the inside is good. They have cold air and tons of interesting little products to shop for.”
“I moved to Merriville, IN..March 2024.. I'm comfortable going to Hudon because they're respectful and friendly. Hudson has that small town gas station feel..I love the service and they remember their customers, even have a lil time to talk and as always they say have a great day..I've never had a problem.Thank you for treating your customers with respect.”
“⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽⛽ Great one stop shop, safe, courteous and fresh treats. Some think it's in the hood so be scared but it's just a safe as anywhere nowadays. Plus that chicken yummy!”
“This is still one of my favorites because they get stuff done ,very friendly and helpful,showers clean and big ,cafeteria and a lot of parking but it’s been flooded and out of power for two weeks now.”
“They have remodeled and it looks great, fortunately the products are back in stock. Like GAS, EBT MACHINE and cigarettes & so much more. I reviewed this store often and this one thing never changes, the worker's here are good people. Very kind and participates in our community.”
“Y'all get 5 stars today because of the young man that's a cashier here name Dj. He was amazing. His parents raised him right. Give that man a raise!!!!”
“Good price, easy on & off highway. Be careful!!!! The lot is very small and you need to pick your entrance wisely. No way to get around cars already at pumps.”
“My favorite gas station the man who runs the place is phenomenal so it's a kid that works at night love these guys see him everyday they are absolutely great”
“I go to this gas station every night before work I love it. Only reason it didn't give it 5 stars is because I work at 3 at night so I can't say how morning goes”
“As high as gas prices are, I drive from the Chicagoland area to Indiana to get gas. I needed a fill-up and they were $2.87 a gallon (as opposed to Chicagoland's $3.29).”
“This gas station is clean. The workers are very nice. The prices are a bit high but because of the staff and atmosphere, I rather go here than drive up the block to a cheaper gas station.”
“SIGN SAID 2 KIDS AT A TIME AND NO BACKPACKS LOL... Gas was cheap the bathromm was broken but the tenant was cool a litlle worried but he played it cool. They also have lottery and slushies”
“I give this place a better rating than the other stores like it because the owner does good business. He'll order you cartons of your brand and flavor of cigarette and makes sure his stores interior is clean and products are kept stocked regularly.”
“I goto this gas station alot. Only thing that is inconvenient is that they goto prayer at certain times so the stores locked up for like 20 minutes till they're done”
“We needed air in the tires, gas, and water for the kids and were able to get everything taken care of here also the kids are very surprised that the candy was so cheap.”
“So my husband and I purchased these beef ribs, because we don’t eat pork, from County Market, aka Country Market, if you know you know, but they had them on sale!!! People complain about how big the bones are!! Baby, I LOVE them. They remind me of beef roast! These ribs had plenty of meat on the bone!! Definitely satisfied!! And my husband did his thing!!! They were seasoned to perfection and delicious!! We went back for some more, because they were on sale again. The quality wasn’t the same, meat on the bones was a little skimpy!! We will be going back to search for some more though!! And I have to mention the customer service. This young lady had the best customer service and hospitality. She said we enjoy our customers, and we love to make each other laugh. A lot of times the customers join in. It makes everyone’s day a good day!! I love that!! People can be so rude and unfriendly which makes the customer experience horrible, so thank you for your wonderful hospitality. I can’t remember her name, but she was pretty tall!!?”
“By far the cheapest place to get your generic type of cigarettes and chewing tobacco. They have always been kind courteous and even willing to work with us lawn we needed a little help. This is the only place we go to for tobacco products and their gas is decent to. But to me gas is gas ?. I will give this place a recommendation four tobacco products and gasoline on the cheap. Long as they don't raise their prices we will be continuous customers forever .”
“Filled up w 27 gallons of Natural Gas for my F350 which in fact burns Natural Gas. Current price for regular gas is around $5.35/gallon. Natural gas at this station was $2.49/gallon saving me almost $70.00 on a standard fill up. System has been installed on my truck for.10 years and boy is it paying off now.”

Texas-born Buc-ee's is changing the way people think about gas stations and convenience stores. This chain is known for its huge stores along highways, some with over 100 fuel pumps.

Love'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.
