“I stopped off for gas at BP and was about to leave, but realized I needed windshield wiper fluid. So I turned around and asked the guy if he sold it. He asked me if I wanted the blue or the orange fluid? He said the orange was better for the winter, so I asked if he could put it in for me. He said sure, no problem, pull over. He put it in and put the leftover in my trunk. It was a great experience. He was a nice guy. I have often asked people who work at gas stations to put the fluid in for me and they refused, but this guy had no problem doing so. I gave him a couple of dollars, and he didn’t even wanna take it. He asked me if I was sure like three times. I guess this will be my new gas station! It pays to be nice!”
“They are very friendly, and most importantly, they have very clean bathrooms and showers. They also offer paid parking, which is worth it because the area is very quiet and there are CCTV cameras everywhere, making it feel safe and secure.”
“The reason why I chose 4 stars.... simple, go buy groceries at giant, and your likely to get 10 cents a gallon off the price of your gas.... and ifs convenient if you're already at giant!”
“I worked here initially for my internship, and remained for about 3 years working with Jonathan. The amount of knowledge I gained having been taken under Jon's wing was incredible. Learning from him gave me the tools, means, and knowledge to start my own business and fully pursue my path as an entrepreneur. What I have learned here was way more valuable to me than my college education and with a much higher payout to boot - anyone seeking consulting DEFINATELY ask for Jonathan! Anyone looking for internships should also 100% apply here!”

“First timer...had plugs & ignition coils replaced. Jack was A-1 in service he performed and let me know of another area of concern and addressed it. Will definitely seek his services in the future.?”
“They're ok. Ok coffee... they have hot food that I've never tried... that's just me and not a reflection on the food. Gas station fried chicken etc doesn't strike me as good but, again, just me. Staff is reasonably friendly. Overall, a good experience.”
“Great experience and always friendly! The only station in the area that pumps gasoline for you and offers auto repairs/services. It brings back memories with the original, single pumping stations.”
“Really great staff, a bunch of young polite guys and a older guy who is just as polite. Normally higher price then the "other two" but the service is unbeatable.”
“I don't know what's the name of the young lady who attended us today. But, she was really nice. And very carismatic. And she seems a really hard worker because she was attending the gas pumps and also inside the office at the same time. I wish people more from this generation works as hard as she was doing today.”
“The daytime gas attendant is so kind and friendly! He goes over and beyond!! He takes the time to ask how I'm doing everytime I visit! Hands down the best gas attendant they have ever had!! The Valero is LUCKY to have him as a employee!!”
“Was having problems with my vehicle to where I wasn’t running correctly working Rick and Andrew thoroughly checked over my vehicle to make sure that they got it running the way it’s supposed to run. I will definitely be back and I appreciate all their service I would recommend them to anybody.”
“Great customer service! They were kind enough to honor the price of the heating oil that was on their website even though it had increased as I was scheduling my delivery. Thank you!! Every penny counts these days and it was greatly appreciated.”
“Just had an awesome chicken rice nd cheese wrap from the warmer it is on the same level as some of the best Thai food I’ve ever had the flavor was great the chicken was tender it wasn’t too spicy I highly recommend stopping just for one of those”
“Giving 4stars instead of 5 for the fact the gas is a tad pricey. But 4 stars because of the fast and friendly service you receive. Plus it's right off of rt. 80 in a very convenient spot. There is also a small food court and convenient shop located on the premise.”
“My favorite place to park for bringing the kids to Footbridge park. It saves several minutes compared to driving over the river and using the official lot, and the owner is incredibly nice and accommodating. He and I had such a nice conversation about how he supports the park and the community and he is such a selfless and generous man. Any time you need to park, this is the place to go.”
“I definitely like this Wawa more than the east burg wawa for sure! At least there's tons of places to park at this wawa. It's bigger, I think their sandwiches come out better at this wawa. Their bathrooms are super clean and even smell clean most of the times. They are on point with their hoagie and specialty drink timing. Overall good wawa.”
“Excellent customer service and car wash is great alll type off options and super great on cost I super recommend and the lady always nice and sweet Is the best in the area for sure And price off gas GREAT SUPER THE BEST AROUND CHECK AND SEARCH BUT HERE IS THE ONE THANK YOU”
“Parked in last night for the next few days for Monday delivery in Jessup PA. Nice view , across the street from Humptys Burger place ( tried them the first time 5 stars ) and a motel walking distance . Diesel pump , hot coffee , and two showers as well as a restaurant . Quiet area if you’re a truck driver looking for a peaceful night , you got the right area. Shower / Parking - $15.00 each as of 5.24.25”
“Best gas prices around the 'burgs. Small, but well stocked store that sells lottery (and cigs) too. Sometimes harried, but nice folks working hard here. Recommended.”
“I was driving and my front bumper was falling off. Let me tell you the manager here was amazing. I stopped her for gas but he went out of his way to help. I will never forget his act of kindness. Thank you.”
“great place meta great gentleman at the gas pump he even met my dog but i doint usually get gas here because the gas is a little too much money of the highway but it was worth it but great food nice staff.”

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.
