“the guy that owns the place and is always running the register is the coolest most chill and nicest guy ever ill literally be coming back to this place for as long as i'm living in st. cloud lol”
“Only one complaint: The customers that drive in on the outside lane against the arrow. Sam's Club should install those retractable tire spikes, like they have on the exit of parking garages. Either that or, people caught doing it should receive life in prison! Otherwise, great prices on gas! Worth the wait if there is a line. Save 10¢ - 25¢ a gallon!”
“The workers are always friendly. The gas prices are competitive for the area. The store is as clean as a busy convenience store can be kept... all things considered, it's the closest store to me and one that I happily utilize almost daily!Thanks for being a wonderful small business.”
“This place has the best gas and best prices for gas in town. When you drive a lot or if you are trying to save money this is hands down the place in St cloud and surrounding towns to go.”
“To all you pot smoking people out there near this area, stay away from Dutches name brand wraps. They are more dry and flakier than the dandruff off deez nuts.?”
“I love this store. Anyone who knows this store knows how friendly the workers are. It's so convenient for a quick stop-shop/gas. Five stars indeed. Although rarely you might find teenagers doing teenager not so good stuff out by there, they're all good people looking for a buzz. And it's getting more and more rare to see teens. (I bet they're growing up and getting jobs.) May the light giuce us.”
“Lovely employees and well stocked selections. They take their store seriously while doing their best to enjoy their days at work in the process; it's lovely to see.”
“They always have the hot snacks ready, bathrooms are clean, store is always clean, staff is supper helpful I grabbed a salad once that was expired and they went and grabbed a new one that wasn't. The staff here really look out for the customer.”
“Had the best experience here. The over night team was great Ray was really friendly, and so was the other cashier. I had just dealt with some really rube people so this stop really made my night.”
“One of my go to gas stations/smoke shop. You can get your gas, smoke supplies, and even bait and saves me a trip across town to baitshops, there's a liquor store next door to them as well so it's an easy stop to make, especially if you live on the outside of town.”
“I enjoy Kwik Trip and this location was very easy to get in and out of. First time to thie location but I like it. We used the restroom and they were clean and the store was nice. I will come again to this easy intersection -location!”
“First Fuel Bank's Division Street location makes it easy to get gasoline for your vehicle at a steep discount. Open up a First Fuel Bank account and you can get, on average, 10 cents off per gallon. Sometimes we've received as much as 20 cents off per gallon.”
“Awesome guys, they'll do you well. I was short like $0.50 on something and the guy legit asked me how short I was. I declined him giving me a break on what I had to spend, but he tried to be nice. Don't take advantage of that, I'm just letting people know the kind people that work there. They are open until 12am as well”
“Old school in every way, not a bad thing! I had some running boards put on my pick-up. They did great work and I saved over $120 (in my experience) in labor, over a car dealer or chain.”
“Gas was a good price compared to nearby and bathrooms and store were very clean. Would definitely stop here again and recommend. Nice large area for getting gas. Easy to get in and out. Nice looking dog park and good traffic control for trucks and autos.”
“What's not to love about Kwik Trip! Love all the dairy products especially!! This location can get a bit busy but the staff works hard and the line moves quick.”
“They have truck parking, it’s a gated lot beside the store you get a ticket and pay before you leave. The manger let me park for a few hours on the station parking lot until I had to go deliver. Was very nice so I tipped him.”
“Great prices, nice small spot, VERY friendly staff (Thank you so much again Ronni!). I also did not see spiders while pumping, and the only webs I saw were very high out of reach.”
“Soooo welcoming and friendly and my daughter loves their waving cats in building and their free air is always working. Also I thru something important away in dumpster and they helped me retrieve it back. Also they have new owners and the new owners are the reason I made it my go to place. the last owners were rude the new owners are Amazing and joyful to see and shop at their zenteno store! no more shimmtys?”
“I regularly get my gas and diesel here. it’s good fuel. I do wish they would carry def. The place is pretty well-maintained. They’re pizza for hot stuff is very good and all the beverages seem to be nice and cold. nothing dirty about the place, it is one of my go to places. Great faces, most of the staff is very friendly.”
“Many of the negative reviews come from people who don’t live in this neighborhood and seem to leave bad feedback for businesses in general. The employees here work hard and are genuinely friendly. Most of the time when I visit, there’s only one person working, yet they still manage to smile—even when customers talk down to them or, in some cases, put their hands on them. They do their best to keep the store clean and stocked. I’ve personally watched employees tidy up counters and tables, only for a group of adults to trash the area the moment the employee walks away. Customer service isn’t dying—customer decency is.”
“I have been here several times over the course of almost a decade. This is convenient for my trips to St. Cloud, especially when I am driving along freeway 94. I find this to be a wonderful gas station for stopping to care for my needs. My needs are most commonly gas and drinks. I would define this business as more than just a typical gas station. This location is also a gift shop. I do not see this in many other gas stations. This part is terrific for travelers who do not reside in Minnesota. This place has several Minnesota themed gifts to offer. They include coffee cups, spoons, and ornaments. They have a great selection for choosing, and even though I live in Minnesota, I bought a key chain a long time ago because it looks so interesting. The employees appear to stay on top of their cleaning and organizing duties. This observation applies to the inside and the outside parts of the gas station. I have not encountered any major messes or clutter inside or in the driving area. The driving area is bigger than the average gas station so staying on top of this part of the cleaning duties is impressive. Overall, I have always felt comfortable walking in here. I have not ordered their food items often. In fact, it has been a couple years since I have. This is only because I have felt the need to do that. As of back then, I have noticed that the employees keep a good eye on the freshness of their food and drinks. I can always count on it being available to me hot and fresh. Lately, I have been purchasing their coffee most often. I have been satisfied with their coffee, especially as of lately. Most of the employees are friendly. All of them have their unique personalities, as is typical in many other businesses. Some are good at carrying a good conversation when there is no one behind me in line, while others are not. Either scenario is not important to me as long as they are friendly. This is the case here. I have never has to ask for assistance so I cannot judge whether or not they are happy to help. When I am in the area and need to go to a gas station during my St. Cloud visits, I will continue keeping this place in mind. I feel like I can count on them for quality service and customer satisfaction.”
“I called these nice men crying during my road trip and they told me to come in, they helped me right away and got me back on the road in less than 30 minutes. Hasi only charged me $20 and completely fixed a bunch of broken pieces underneath my car. He kept saying he just wanted to make sure I got home safe!! So so glad I decided to stop here and would completely recommend this place. Thank you guys!!”
“I was there on Wednesday and the service of the three employees was wonderful, very nice to talk to and so polite. They put a smile on my face and gave me some laughter. I know customer service is hard at times, but they did a super job.”
“8/8/26 10:30am. A very busy Truck Stop and Gas Station and the restrooms were clean. We met with a prompt friendly greeting as we entered the store. It's right off of the highway so easy access and easy to get back on the highway.”

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.
