“Decent size parking lot for semi. Bigger fuel island for loves and a decent size shop. Store was clean and well stocked. Woman's bathrooms clean..staff friendly.”
“The gas is always cheaper than other stations locally. Pot hole driveway as older place. Lottery sales. Limited gas pumps to two which is 4 cars fueling. Right off rt 56, east 15 minutes from Circleville. A little worn. But love the staff. They have limited snacks and prepped food. Coffee choices to go. No straws.”
“I always use speedway whether it's the near home or the one 1000 miles away, you know they are clean and what drinks and food they offer....gas prices here lately are not the cheapest like it use to be though”
“Usually the employees are nice and it’s usually pretty clean and a nice selection of alcohol and lottery tickets. The only negative I’d say is the last time I was there some man worker said lottery wasent working and he seemed not to friendly kind of rude the way he said it but overall it’s a good place to go for your alcohol.”
“Ashley who works at this location. Is the best employee in who I have come across at any gas station. I’ve managed 2 separate ones in my days. In Oklahoma and Colorado. And I would have hired Ashley in a split second. When I come in everyday. She greets every single person. She knows what they want before they to the counter if they are regulars. She is always cleaning/stocking/ counting ect. I don’t know how long she has been there. But I would give her a raise. She definitely deserves it! She a hard worker, absolutely amazing customer service. I’m not even sure if she is a manager. But she takes care of the customers in a way that is rare to find.”
“I love the workers here. They're always so pleasant. I'm come in every day for a breakfast sandwich and sometimes a sub... food is so good and always fresh! Gotta get there early or they sell out of their breakfast sandwiches! Lol”
“I think the employees are always so nice will take care of you with a smile and also they have a drive thru best thing ever so if you want to meet some really nice and down home people that's the place to go to”
“Love this new store. Gas prices cheaper. Sheets has good variety of iced drinks, a nice selection of cold fountain drinks and slushies. Offers many hot fast food.”
“Awesome staff when we went between 3pm and 4 pm very helpful and super clean place fresh food and great atmosphere showers were well maintained and ready promptly definitely recommend this place over the other truck stops close.”
“Absolutely love this store over their competitor! I can spend an hour browsing in here. I was looking for something for Halloween and was shocked they had really good Ghillie suits! A little too pricey for a Halloween costume, but really great sniper camo. They had tons of woodland camouflage jackets, shirts and pants. They also have a great selection of work gloves in a variety of leathers and synthetics. They have jeans. They have lots of western boots. And they have all kinds of farm pride t-shirts and hats. Ok, this is the frivolous stuff. They also have live chicks in Spring and they have feed and shelters for them. They have deer lawn ornaments and wire fencing. While I had my dog, I got some great quality collars, leashes and toys here. They had a pumpkin display out front and I was taking a selfie in front. A pleasant store employee offered to take my photo. And, I almost forgot, they have free popcorn while you shop!”
“Love this place. There a man by the name of Jamie who works 3rd shift that I can go too when everything in the world puts me in a bad mood. I definitely leave with a smile. I love the workers here honestly my favorite gas station in town 🤌🏾”
