“Passing thru KS on Hwy 400 and nature called, as it sometimes does.. A short diversion into town and the first gas station we saw was this Phillips 66. Typical convenience shop interior, nothing hot to eat on this Sunday morning, and a couple of local fellows sitting at a small table up front drinking coffee. The rest rooms are at the back of the store and were immaculate! The bright led overhead lights made the porcelain in this throne room shine. Soap and paper products aplenty. Can't speak to the gas, but this place rates five stars for meeting my needs ?”

“Casey’s has a good selection of breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu items. You can order ahead, order while you’re there, or grab fresh food out of their warmers. They have a great phone app you can use to order your food that has lots of deals and membership rewards as well. Casey’s has their own distinctive pizzas that many prefer over other pizza chains. Give Casey’s a try; you won’t be disappointed. Our Casey’s is extremely friendly and serves our little, tight knit community well.”
