“Employees are always smiling and very friendly. And if you are a regular like we are, sometimes they will already know what I want ? LOL. They also have good food. The store and lot are always clean. They always stay busy. But Ive never been in line for more than just a couple of mins.”
“Nice place for snacks and gas, totally hate they got rid of the fiesta grill the food was amazing and portions were a plenty at a decent price, to bad they took that away?”
“My go to place to get gas. It's closer & more convenient. You can pay at the pump. And the best part it automatically prints your receipt. Gas prices are always competitive. But I don't mind paying a few cents more to have less wait & better experience. They have hot food often & have the best chicken strips of any convenience store. The salads are also especially good if you can get one before they sell out. That's how good they are & are not prepackaged but made fresh. If you drink beer it looks to be a huge selection. Plenty of soft drinks, sports drinks, water, etc. Lots of snacks. They have vapes & stuff like that. Never had to use the restroom but I wouldn't hesitate here like I would some places. The store is kept immaculately clean inside & out. The only negative which isn't the stores fault is the traffic when you try to pull out. There is almost a blind spot if you are going back towards 341/Randolph. Staff has always been super friendly as well.”
“I stopped in to grab a snack. I tried the honey mustard boneless wings. I must say they were excellent. These were some of the best boneless wings I’ve eaten. They were moist, tender, and packed full of flavor. The store itself was very clean. I’ll definitely be back.”
“I stop here on occasion to grab food. I love the burgers. They are a bit pricey but a dressed burger made here is worth it. The people here greet you with a smile. Make you feel like you are welcome when you walk in”
“Great place to get a good breakfast or hot food. Prices are better than the chain restaurant. limited truck parking but good wait spot for delivery. Food and people were really nice. Clean. Limited restroom seating.”
“Good service open 7 days a week.been doing business their since I was young. I will continue to be a customer and I will gladly recommend you try them for yourself”
“I believe this is the Exxon that has the Bravo store. We stopped to stretch our legs and get a snack. Was greeted when we walked in the door Kayla was super friendly. She made conversation about our travels (she saw our camper we tow) She was so sweet and personal. She is definitely in the right occupation. She even met my puppy. The store well stocked clean and easy to maneuver through. Parking lot is bug enough to get a camper in they have a back parking lot with a entrance to the store also. Y’all if your in the area stop in an say hi- get some snacks or fill up your tank, Tell Kayla , Vickie from RV New Adventures sent ya.”
“This place has the best breakfast! I love their biscuits and gravy and chicken strips. And their scones and cinnamon rolls are to die for! The ladies behind the counter are always really nice, too.”

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.
