“Usually a pretty happening place for cheaper gas. I like that the pumps reach both sides of your vehicle, although some folks don't seem to understand that.”

“Good gas station but lack of parking spots can cause wait time at pumps because people go inside and sometimes unable to get by or put air in tires because people park in the way to go inside”

“I could not have had a more pleasant experience with Bjorn, the extremely friendly cashier who rang me up on the evening of July 19, 2023. Especially at this time in history, it is so rare to come across people in public-facing jobs who actually take customer service seriously. He is an asset to your company and I hope that he is recognized as such.”

“Sun-yoko is when Ms Ono decides to get a tan and lays out in Central Park thinking about John and missing him, as we all do, but she does more. This gas station is special to me. It was on the corner where I used to work (kind of) and used to live (nearby), and it featured prominently in a major incident. I was involved in a car crash last time my mother was here... I wasn't driving. My mother will be visiting this summer for the first time since this crash actually. We had a couple of people in the back of the car who were riding in, basically, the SUV trunk, illegally. Thankfully they weren't injured, but the cops were coming, so they had to hide out somewhere and it was midwinter and way below freezing. This gas station allowed the 2 in the trunk to hide out until the cops came and went, and we appreciated that because all kinds of people could have gotten in all kinds of trouble otherwise. And no I'm not worried about Yelp snitches... do whatever you want and I hope it helps you sleep at night knowing what kind of crap you reap on other people. :) But thank you to the wonderful employees here for helping us out, and even though your gas is usually too expensive as is your convenient store, you get a solid 4 for that. This gas station, though, is usually way too busy. Like my gf's thingy.”

“one of the few gas stations left around here that isn't a Speedway, very peaceful at night since there is no TV/computer at the pump to make your ears ring or screen that especially disrupts your circadian rhythm. the hose on pump #10 was leaking from where it attaches toward the top but it's very nice to be able to get gas somewhere in the suburbs without having to put ear muffs on.”

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.
