I go to this location a lot. Food is good.
Staff is great! However, I have been there several times now and the car wash is frequently out of order. They push buying car washes when buying gas and run a lot of promotions for discounted washes. It doesn’t do a lot of good when I can’t get my car washed. It even stopped on me mid wash one time and I had to call the emergency number to get out. It is beyond frustrating when you are trying to get a car wash on your way out of town and it is consistently not in service.

Came in to get some dinner with my partner and pick up some tobacco products. Walked up to the register ready to pay, and the bald white guy at the register asked for both of our ID's. My partner didn't have theirs on them, so I politely said never mind. I understand it may be store policy to ask, so we left the store. I came back ALONE ready to present my ID. I was getting rang up by another cashier when the BALD white guy stepped in and told her not to sell them to me. I was confused, as I am of age ready to present my ID. I explained to them that I had my ID, but the bald white guy insisted. I was declined service at this Kwik Star.

Normally all the employees here are fantastic genuinely enjoy coming here, BUT today at about 10:32 pm there was a young man working the register who decided to be rude. I guess he asked me how I was doing and I didn’t answer because I didn’t here then he changed his tone of voice and says back cheekily “im fine too thanks for asking” I just find that a bit rude honestly. Can’t expect someone to hear you/ respond.

No longer 5 Star for me. Kwik Star has just raised their prices on hot food items, by double! I live near and was a loyal customer. I would stop at least 3-5 times a week, but I will no longer be going anymore, as they are monopolizing the Des Moines area. Soon as you start to love it- they raise all the prices. I will not be going back and will find a new place to get gas. Fleet Farm is looking more promising for comparable gas prices.

I picked up a chicken sandwich, which I buy regularly. I opened it to put on toppings, and the patty is now about the size of a 50 cent piece. I left it. How disappointing.

Kwik Star has such a great vibe, like when you're on a road trip and see that large store in a small town that reminds you of an oasis in the desert. They have really good prices on stuff (some even beat grocery store prices) and they cook up a great selection of foods for their food bar. Staff has always been friendly and helpful too. Love this place!

8-9 AM coffee out, soda out, no burritos including breakfast out looks like already for lunch at just before 9 (what will that look like at even 11). Looks like lots of people working but not checking these

This is the best all-purpose gas and convenience center in Ankeny. It offers a solid variety of items and some of the cheapest gas in town. It is clean and kind, and it is a good place to stop or have a snack. The small seating section works well also.

Kwik star is always a great place to stop. Plenty of food, plenty of sweets, everything you could ask for in a convenience store and more. The people are pretty great too!

I visit here about every other week as it's around the corner from one of my doctors. I've always had pleasant visits. The store is always clean and I've had no issues parking.

I used to think it was so silly that my boyfriend had a favorite gas station. He always puts kwik star on a pedestal, but now I understand why.It is so convenient here! They have a huge selection of food items: fresh food, drinks, donuts, meat, fruits, vegetables... you name it.Friendly staff, plenty of parking, free air, safe pumps. Great rewards program. It's really rare to find a 24-hr place that I feel safe or comfortable in, but kwik star definitely does the job!
