“First time customer. I brought in my old car and asked Andy to look at it to assess if it was worth fixing or retiring. When he deemed it wasn't worth fixing, he was extremely friendly, honest, and wouldn't take my money after he spent time and labor on the car. He told me to save the money and spend it on a new car. I'll be returning whenever I need my car serviced.”

“Rich and his crew knocked it out of the park as usual. I’ve used them for the last couple of body shop needs and they’ve been absolutely great. They literally walk you through the process and remove all the stress of getting your car back on the road again. Service is above and beyond and your car looks like new when it’s returned. Definitely recommend them for all your automotive needs.”

“Kadir, a BusyBee worker at this gas station saved my car from serious damage! I was driving with no oil in my engine and Kadir helped me buy the right oil for my SUV, helped me add the oil, attended to other customers immediately as soon as they arrived and then helped me again. When I first arrived at the station he was cleaning the outside area and as I was leaving, he was cleaning and vacuuming inside the store. Kafir was extremely professional and polite and friendly ! I haven’t seen customer service like this in many many years. The store was clean and well stocked.”

“First let me start off by saying this gas station is the cleanest gas station I've seen in a really long time. Every time I go in the bathroom here it is always spotless it's like the bathroom in your own house. The staff is always nice and when you pull up to full service they always wash your windows. Some gas stations on Long Island have really nasty looking pumps with dirt and grime from the gas. Merrick Citgo's pumps are always clean even the nozzles that catch most of the grime and dirt. It's nice to see when you pump your gas that you don't have to touch really nasty pumps. I totally recommend this gas station to anyone because you are treated like a customer should be treated.”

“They got free air but you still have to pay for gas. I'm always losing air in my tires so the free air machine is a convenient feature and it's always working when I use it. There's a small convenience store, staff is friendly. Only issue is the gas is 10% ethanol. I don't think the price reflects the cheaper gas. Ethanol burns faster so the price should be 10% cheaper than other stations.”

“Best prices locally and they just redid the entire gas station. Brand new pumps and a brand new convenience store- which is easily four to five times the size of the previous store. Very clean and they even have Tim Hortins donuts, food and coffee. The gas prices stayed cheap and the new convenience store is a great improvement over the last store. The new gas pumps are even torch screens.”

“Teddy, the owner, is an amazing auto analyst. His prices are fair, his work is top notch, and his mechanic, Jimmy, is terrific, too. They're both great to deal with, honest, and try to best by you. Highly recommended!Jb”

“The NICEST people! Brought my car in without an appointment because the air conditioning wasn't working. They looked at it right away but unfortunately couldn't repair it. There was no charge for their assessment. I really appreciate the time and care that was taken to explain things to me. I will definitely be returning to this station for all of my future car maintenance. Thank you!!”

“This gas station is great. The mobile across the street has a very temperamental gas attendant working behind the counter who told ya to leave for taking too long at the gas pump. He also said don't come back. I'm pretty sure he was on drugs.”

“The Gas station was 30cents high on price about 2 months ago. I recently visited the gas station and spoke to the owner and to my surprise this Gas station is under a new management now, Very competitve on prize and a very kind and good staff. They have stocked up the Mini Mart with fresh stock with new offers, Its a must stop for gas fill when in Merrick.”

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.
