“Right off the main road. Came in to grab gas, the gas station has a lot of entrances and parking. Getting in and out was super quick. Grabbed a coffee inside, everything for coffee was available and ready to go. The clerk was super nice and we were quickly on our way.”

“I like Hy-Vee. Their employees are always willing to help me locate a wayward item. Sometimes, I have my groceries carried to my car, and for this, I always tip a few dollars, nothing life changing. I was surprised to learn that tipping is quite rare. Bigfoot sightings seem more numerous. You know a few dollars can really help those kids out!!”

“Came in for some hot chocolate and the machine was out. An employee refilled it for me and not only that but she gave me the drink for free even though I insisted on paying. Great place!”

“They could have more people at the registers in the morning since it is always so busy. But other than that? Can't complain. They usually have what me and my husband are going in to get.”

“Kevin, Jeff, Rose, and Dale make this place feel like home. They make this Casey's note worthy. Friendly familiar faces. Jeff and Rose work diligently in the background to keep things running smooth. Dale and Kevin are like an old married couple.... Bantering back and forth with each other and customers make it fun. I look forward to my morning Casey's visit because of the great people working here. This place would make a good TV sitcom.”

“Amazing, friendly customer service. Specifically by Logan F. I normally have a tough time choosing which gas station to choose from, with so many in my area. Thanks to Logan, I won’t be having such a hard time choosing! Awesome job!”

“We love Casey's, and especially this location. The food is fantastic and their workers are so friendly. They also keep the location (including rest rooms) clean. One worker, James (IV?) always greets us as you walk in the door, is friendly at check out, and is just an overall fantastic employee. Yesterday when I made a pit stop between jobs, he was even outside cleaning off the outdoor freezer for the bags of ice! He had a spray bottle and rags, wiping it down. That was the only time in our nearly 15 years in this town that I have seen an employee do this. Super work ethic. I was impressed. Thanks everyone at Casey's for keeping the place clean and friendly. It keeps us coming back.”

“So sad that Casey’s switched out the brewed coffee for the machines! The reason I don’t stop at Kum&Go is because their coffee isn’t drip coffee. If you know coffee, you know the machines don’t taste as good!”

“I have never had a better experience at a gas station. The guy who helped me was super friendly he explained Everything and tried to be as helpful as possible about ordering food. Will be back.”

“After the move from Ankeny to Urbandale, we have settled on this Hy-Vee as our usual grocer of choice. There is always a nice selection and great produce. Typically I can find everything I need on my shopping list in this one store. While I love the Waukee store, I do miss having a Starbucks inside, but it makes sense because there is a free-standing store across the street. I loved the Prairie Trail store in Ankeny because it seemed to be larger, but I could be wrong. The only thing I find disappointing is how Hy-Vee like so many other retailers seems to be pushing to the self-check lanes. How can I find a "Friendly Smile in every aisle" if I am dealing with a machine? No thanks.”

“Overall, a great a service station. The gas prices were on par with the going rate in Iowa, bathrooms were clean, and there's an Arby's attached to it. They have a huge selection of stuffed animals/lovies for the little ones and fountain drinks, snacks, and hot pizza.The location is nice because it less busy than the Des Moines stations. Plus, it has some green space to let the kiddos and/or pups move around a bit.”
350 SE University Ave, Waukee IA 50263
“I enjoyed my time there. The environment is great. I love all the cool merchandise and items they have. I love there forreal ice cream machine in the back and you know I love me some breakfast pizza. I think I'll even go and take a trip there later today. I love this place and it's almost like a Second home to me.”

“Kudos to Hy-Vee for having many workers on Wednesday before TG. The parking lot was full but I was able to check out quickly. They were so prepared! Super great customer service!”

“Best food I've ever had at a gas station! I had a Caribbean bowl... just wow! Wish I could try more but I was just passing through back to the east coast. I will remember this place next time I pass through.Pleasant people and clean facilities. Glad I stopped by.”

“I got gas and paid at the pump, so I can't attest to in store. Here's what I do know. I hate answering 50 questions when I pay at the pump. It's Iowa and it's cold out- Just give me my gas! I wish the pump could hear me, because he would just give me my gas. I'm usually rude to the pump, because I am freezing my a$$ off answering questions. Just give me gas after I pay. Please”
