“This place is a great stop for gas in Cedar Rapids. Its not far off the interstate. The traffic is quick to get in and out. But real reason i wanted to review. A older lady in a prius pulled up with a shredded tire. The staff instantly noticed and both of them came to her rescue. That's more than Iowa nice that's great customer service.”

“The supreme pizza at Casey's is my favorite pizza. I've had them all over from many cities in many states. I can honestly say the pizza we had from the Hiawatha store is far and away without competition. It was the best of the best in my opinion. None can compare. Our Northwood store used to be our favorite, but the supreme we had from Hiawatha blew even their best away. No other Casey's has even come close to what we experienced that night. We were astounded and impressed at a very high level. Well done, top notch, keep it up! Although now I'm ruined, as I compare all others to you, and they have all fallen short. You have my respect and admiration. Truly impressive. Thank you for making one of the best pizzas I've ever had in my life! P.s. It was late, just before 10pm. We didn't even expect to get our pizza because of the time.”
