“Great prices.... Friendly staff . Been going there for decades and highly recommend. Lately been coming through area 5 or 6 times a week from Buffalo to Erie or reverse. Be aware of Brant PD and a unmarked grey Dodge SUV that are constantly set up on SR20 with a speed trap almost daily. The Town of Brant must be the safest community in the world that all the police have to do is sit around and set up speed traps. There motto must be to "harass and collect" Pretty pathetic.... Guess they have to justify there existence by collecting enough revenue from tickets”
“Always a great place to go shopping for your home needs. They have everything you could need from a stove and a refrigerator to a hardwood floor and paint to make it all come together. Just beautifully.”

“Today I’m really happy. I stopped at this truck stop for overnight parking, and in the morning I noticed my load had shifted. I tried to fix it myself, but the workers saw the problem and came to help. They brought a forklift and fixed everything — and didn’t charge me anything. The staff inside even gave me free coffee. This is the best truck stop experience I’ve ever had. Thank you so much, BIG INDIAN SMOKE SHOP”

Crust is chewy , sauce made of actual tomatoes, (not grossly sweet like the pizza across the street) this hunt brothers pizza is delicious , cheesy and affordable. Try it!”
“Staff very friendly. Owner likes to price gouge when an item is selling well. Sells gallons of milk for $ 5.00. Clean store. Ok then I will take back the price gouging". Owner likes to rise the prices on items that are selling well. No one is asking you to have very low prices but $7.00 for a package of Oreo cookies $5.50 for a gallon of milk. That's not right. Two weeks before the cookies were $5 something it's not right. O wait I'm paying for the convenience that's what you said right.”
“I love this place, and the owners! They'll always be near and dear to my heart every time I'm in the area I stopped in.. today I was especially moved as every store around is out of washer fluid.... I happened to run into Mike and he gave me his personal fluid from his truck, and even put it in for me! Thank you so much you and Sue will always have a special place in my heart ❤️”

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.
