“Good place to stop for gas and a bite to eat. They have fantastic pizzas and sandwiches, as well as other quick fast snacks. They also have great coffee and a good selection of alcohol. The workers are friendly for the most part but the short girl that takes the orders for food always seems unhappy. Not sure if it’s her personality or if she’s truly unhappy but it does have a slight negative effect of the overall customer experience. The gas station is clean and easily accessible to the road. I recommend this establishment!”
