“This place is a Shell Station, with an odd name. The sign says: PAK-A-POK: Convenience at its best; Although this place has a rough looking building, cracked pavement, truck parking in the back... maybe eight trucks, if you can get in. They do have diesel and regular gas fuels. The Deli inside has some really good southern fried fish, Cajun sausages and other items. The ladies are the nicest people you will ever meet. Polite and always willing to say hello. Very clean, restrooms, although small. They have some unique wallpaper: Lucille Ball & James Dean pointing to the Men's restroom. A group of older men sit and drinking coffee, telling tales and talking to the locals mornings. And this place is a busy area in the morning and at lunch with the locals. A line at the deli usually. There is an old laundromat in the back in a separate building. A bit expensive, but the closest you will ever be to a laundromat, when parking s rig. The SAXON restaurant is just next door. They only have outdoor seating, some covered. Pleasant workers and they aim to please. They also will take call-in orders. No drive way though. We really enjoyed the place. It is small and great care needs to be taken entering and exiting the place.”

“I've passed by this place at least 50 times. Had heard there Gizards and Livers are the best. How is that even possible when they are all pretty much cooked the same? Well, they are the best I've found from a small place on the side of the road ever. The people are so friendly, helpful, and super nice. Will stop here everytime possible!”

“Friendly little store with just about anything you need from a convenient store. They are a bit over priced but hey...whatcha gonna do when its the only store within miles?! One complaint is they need to leave the gas pumps on after they close. Ive needed gas several timea and stopped only to find the pumps shut off.”

Read the postLove'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.
