“They were terrific. I got a hole in one of my tires on Sunday night. I showed up early the next morning and they were able to plug it for me. First time customer and I'll go back as other needs arise.”
“Gave them a call an asked if they mount used tires because 90% of tire places won’t mount used tires they had no problem doing them dropped them off at 7pm an they were done an ready to go next morning great service an great ppl would definitely recommend if you need some new or used tires put on they are they place.”
“The employees are always really nice. They do a great job any time I have a problem with my work vehicle, and the gas card is wacking out. I highly appreciate it!!! Thank you! ??”
“Best price near the Twin Cities. And my gas last a lot longer than any other gas station that I go to. If I have enough gas to get there that's where I'm going if I don't I'll put $5 in and get there.”
“Absolutely amazing customer experience. I took my vehicle there and Matt is extremely knowledgeable and honest. It's nice to find a mechanic you can trust with quality work like the old days.”
“My first time here at this Bobby and Steve's / Shell station? Am I incorrect, are these two different stores? I receipt definitely shows Shell. Gas was $3.39, even though I normally go to the Costco in Maple grove, this was needed because I was in dire deed of gas. I didn't go inside, which I regret, because I feel like they have amazing stores! I also saw a multi-lane car wash I think and a several drive-up stations to use the vacuums? I took several pictures, when I was at the gas pump. I liked that it printed my receipt and I didn't have to go inside the store to get my receipt.”
“We all know that Costco usually has very competitive prices when it comes to gas. This is a very busy station and sometimes the lot can be full to actually get in to fill your car up. I see they included some new signage so people know that there are extra long hoses on the gas pumps and that you can fill your vehicle from either side as you park. They did add an extra stop sign before you get into the gas area. This stop sign has not been there for years, so don't be caught. Unaware that there is a new stop sign.”
“Great service. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Been here multiple times for different issues and they always take care of the problem. I would recommend this place to anyone!”

“Magical Chaos! If your well seasoned, entitled, middle class master, that thinks driving a full size SUV with a 40 gallon tank to work each day while complaining about gas prices makes sense then this is the place for you! Dont forget to leave your truck running for the wait because that will really make sense as to why your waiting to save money on gas. This place can be a 20 minute wait to save 15 cents a gallon. now If your driving a sensible car with a 10 gallon tank its possible your not part of the paradox. Go home do some basic math, sell your $900 a month luxuriously appointed gas hog and put the money into retirement. Then you can stop blaming the government for you being broke your entire life! God speed!”
“I wanted to write a review regarding the Minnoco gas station in Maple Grove, MN, they have the nicest, kindest and friendliest cashiers, always greeting you when you walk into the store no matter what time day or night and thank you when you leave. I really appreciate them!”
“As a person of color, i love the diversity of the complaints on here. The black lady attacked by spiders. The black guy who saw a spider. The black lady who loves the diversity. The black guy who hates the diversity. That apt building across the street has really diversified the comment section.”
“The best group of guys and super friendly crew. Have washed my fleet at O’Ryans for 20 plus years and can’t say enough great things of this place. Over the years they became my friends and a good neighbor. Love you guys!!!”
“This Speedway always has a friendly and helpful staff. Decent selection of products and the Speedy Rewards program is a great deal for regular customers. The only reason I rated 4 stars instead of 5 is that this location is currently understaffed, meaning that some products are not stocked or maintained, and hours may vary at the last minute. This isn't a slight against the good hard-working people of this location, but it can be frustrating when they are unexpectedly closed due to staffing.”
“I've shopped here for a couple years ever since it was opened. However, usually I'd buy something at the food court and they wouldn't give me a receipt and I'd eat it there but silently wondering if I'd get accused of theft. I also had at one time ringed up one item and there was a register bug and the attendant couldn't fix it so she said just take it, I don't care. This place was inviting theft, but prices are high and it's in the suburbs and some theft is an expected cost of doing business. However recently I went there and there was a guy dressed as a cop, badge and everything even looked like a bullet proof vest on, although it says security on his uniform... like dog the bounty hunter, and he was marching around the store, in and out of the parking lot following people around. I saw him grab a $10 jug of laundry detergent from a guy, say get out and don't come back, the guy is saying I paid and grabbing for a receipt and he's being told go, go, go in a very stern voice. I just think if you're worried about theft, get rid of the self check out isles and hire more cashiers. Hire a greeter at the doors. Don't put higher cost items by the doors. And deal with a small amount of theft in wealthy suburbs at a high priced store as the cost of doing business. That would go over a whole lot better than hiring a cop-like security guard to follow people around and give them a hard time.”
“Shout out to the team that has been working hard to bring this store back! I've been going here for many years and for a while it was rough, as others have pointed out. (It should be noted that much of the complaints should be directed towards corporate.) The new crews and manager are friendly, helpful, and the place is in much better shape. Thank you!”

Sheetz Inc., the Pennsylvania-based convenience store chain, is making big moves in the Motor City. The company announced plans to open four more locations across metro Detroit, weeks before opening its first Michigan location. The first Michigan Sheetz will open its doors in late summer at 33380 Wick Road in Romulus.

Love's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees. Picture this: Three big screens in each restaurant, tracking how fast workers greet customers, take orders, and hand out food. It's not just for show - early results say it's making service 11 seconds faster on average. "These monitors track key performance metrics in real-time, such as greet times, order processing times and the time it takes for food handoff," Love's explains. The system creates a more interactive environment, fostering friendly competition between stores.
