“The best breakfast in Ames, located within Berge's gas station and convenience store, a wonderful combination of excellent customer service, great food, and a comfy setting with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating options. I LOVE the Bacon Toaster!”
“Cole N is amazing we love seeing him, he's always so happy so kind he remembers me and my husband without fail. If anyone deserves hours and a raise it's Cole!”
“This has been my local corner store for the past 9 years of my life, I play the lottery here almost every day (powerball or mega millions). I am unhappy that this gas station has not sold me the winning ticket yet. Other than that, I like the fountain drinks and the points I can accumulate which have sometimes landed me free food items :p”
“This place is great, always go when I visit IA. I forget the owners name if someone could remind me. I like to address people by their name when I talk to them! Thanks in advance ;)”

“Nice Kum & Go here in Ames, IA off I-35 Exit 113. The store is quite different on the inside when compared to the others that look like this style in the fountain/coffee area is right next to the kitchen like a Casey’s. Normally, the fountain is just on the right side of the store and the kitchen is on the middle at the newer stores. I got a 44oz fountain drink, 2 slices of sausage pizza, & some Trident Gum (Spearment). The total with tax came to 9.39. The cashier was very nice and friendly. The store was very clean & organized. Keep up the great work, Kum & Go 1113!-Shy_Gun670”
“I am writing about the Asian store opposite or next to hyvee here. They have a good amount of basics rice noodles, rice, indian lentils, mochi, rice paper, meat, sauce, veggies, fish cakes, nori sheets. The place is run by a Korean. The store smells of paint or varnish because there’s painting going on and renovation taking place. Shop keepers seem friendly. It’s growing and they stock up new things every so often with Asian kitchen items such as portable stove, ladles, teapots.”
“I drive out of my way to shop here .. employees are super friendly, professional and the store is always clean, stocked and well organized. When I have the option, this is the only convenience store I give my business to. 5+++”

“Love this pharmacy! The staff is always so kind, any pharmacy you go to there’s typically a wait and they always do their best to get my stuff out to me as fast as they can.”
“The staff were pleasant and friendly. The food was well stocked and they had delicious donuts. -1 star for the awful bathrooms, they looked trashed, but the rest of the place looked clean and actually pretty nice.”

“Clean, organized, stocked, and well-managed from what I can tell on my various visits here.Love the cappuccino/hot chocolate, (when in stock, heh).Only qualm(s) would have to be almost never having potato cheese bites available to go and the bathroom tends to be a bit gross on occasion.”
“I had a problem with my car while getting gas. A Hy-Vee employee in a Hy-Vee van had pulled up to the adjacent pump and offered assistance. A Hy-Vee gas employee came out and helped me. Both employees were friendly and went out of their way to be helpful.”

“This Casey's location is fantastic! The food I ordered (pizza & french fries) was made hot, fresh, & delicious! Our customized order selections & instructions were followed exactly as we asked for. The two men that were working this afternoon (both in the kitchen and at the registers) provided prompt, professional, friendly service, & they were very attentive to customers. The atmosphere was lively & welcoming, with a clean environment. I'm not sure what more you could ask for! I'm honestly a little surprised by some of the negative reviews this place has & I wonder if those people even selected the correct location to leave those reviews for, because this is one of the best Casey's I've seen! Thank you for providing this high standard of quality & service that should be expected in a Casey's location, when it seems recently so many other locations have fallen short of that standard & gone downhill. We really appreciate still having a really good one near where we live!”

“The pharmacy has always done everything they can for me to make it as seem less as possible. Today the pharmacy tech Jeremy went above and beyond and helped me save a decent chunk of change. The man is a kind heart and didn’t have to do it for me, no one else has. He deserves a raise!!!!!”

“I truly hope someone at corporate takes a moment to read this, because I want you to know just how much I genuinely enjoy shopping at your stores. Every time I walk into a Kwik Star, it’s like stepping into a place of comfort and reliability — a rare feeling these days. From the spotless aisles to the warm smiles of your employees, you’ve created something special that feels less like a convenience store and more like a home away from home.
I honestly prefer to do my grocery shopping at your locations over any big-box chain. The quality, the freshness, and the thought you put into every detail — from your dairy section to your ready-to-eat meals — make it clear that you care about your customers. It’s a simple kind of excellence that speaks volumes.
My only disappointment is that your stores aren’t available down south — in Oklahoma, Georgia, and other areas I often travel to. As someone who moves around a lot, I find myself missing Kwik Star every time I’m away. There’s a sense of nostalgia and comfort tied to your brand that no other store quite captures. I feel like a kid in a candy store every time I visit — full of wonder, excitement, and appreciation.
I sincerely hope you’ll consider expanding into the southern and southeastern regions. There are countless people who would appreciate what you’ve built just as much as I do. Thank you for being a bright spot in every town you serve — your dedication truly stands out, and it’s noticed by people like me who look forward to every visit.
With genuine appreciation,
Brandon Davis”
