“I'm not usually one to write reviews, but I have to give a shoutout to the amazing team at the Main Street Kroger's gas station! Every time I stop by, I'm greeted with friendly faces and humorous banter that always puts a smile on my face. The staff is top-notch, and their positivity is contagious. Honestly, I'm not the biggest fan of the Kroger store itself, but the gas station is a whole different story. It's always clean, well-maintained, and the prices are competitive. But it's the people that truly make it stand out. They go above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by - your day will be a little brighter because of it!"”
“Hands down the best Gas station in Springfield. You will not find a better gas station in Springfield. Sunoco is always fully stock and has everything that you could need or want when going to the gas station! The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and just awesome in general! Harry is the best! Everything is competitively priced and within the same price range of other stations and sometimes cheaper! It’s amazing how they run the inside and drive thru with only two workers and theirs never a wait but yet Speedway can’t run the inside of their store with 6 workers without a 5 minute wait in line! I have never understood why people spend their money at Speedway with poor customer service and long waits when you could just run right down the street and get way better service that is faster! Shop local support local this Sunoco is unbeatable!”
“I had the large sub toasted with chips and a coke 10.99 I believe . Absolutely worth it ! Sub was delicious that’s why I only have half of sub in the picture . Whatever the seasoning is they put on here it’s absolutely delicious . Thanks for a job well done .”
“It’s one of my go to places but recently they’ve been getting bad Juul pods so I haven’t been going as much. Juul should put an expiration date on their products! It’s not their fault so I don’t have anything bad to say about them, I think everyone there are very friendly.”
“Drive diesel trucks for work and they're normally a few cents cheaper on their diesel everybody else plus they have pretty good selection of drinks and snacks and they sell pizza and stuff like that in there so I'm stopping here quite a bit to get that kind of stuff for lunch and stuff”
“We just moved into the area and my wife discovered this place on our way home and brought back a sandwich. It was really good so we went back for more food and explore the store a little bit. It’s far from just the gas station; they make some pretty good carry out food as well as carry some interesting Amish specialties. We will be back, probably repeatedly.”
“@jan_byerman there is not any double charges thing on gas station all the pumps were stuck you can even get a gas with card because all the system is down if you have any proof of double charging come on gas station and show your proof of double charges. I am 100% sure that our machine is not taking any double charges if it happens with you come here i pay you $5000 cash!! and my gas price is always lower that kroger gas price.”
“I've gone here for as long as it's been a business.Its very active as customers visit up to closing. It has food items, beer, wine, and soft drinks. Usually, their gas prices are a bit cheaper and the owners are friendly. Panhandlers are often on the premises and are mostly struggling in life but the store is safe to visit and do business.”
“Superb customer service; very kind, polite, and helpful!! Paying .75 for a cup of ice water is completely INSANE... especially when Speedway is free, but I put exceptional customer service and a positive experience above price (within reason that is 😉)!!”
“Driving by this Marathon gas station, I noticed they had a good price on the sign. Decided to stop by on the way back and fill up. It was totally worth it ??! The area's clean. Plus the store has lots to offer. Truly glad I stopped here. Will stop here again soon.”
“Called to the store because I had a question, Serenity answered, she was SO SWEET! The phone barely rang and when she answered, not only was she so helpful, she was informative! Directed me in the right direction! GIVE HER A RAISE ASAP!”
“A major gas station and convenience store in the area. Lottery, lots of beef jerky, hot pizza etc. quick service in a good location they’re always busy. If you’re heading toward or from I 70 on route 68?You’ll probably stop here sooner or later.”
“I had a really good experience at this gas station. The staff were friendly and pleasant, which made the visit even better. The place was clean, well-stocked, and easy to navigate. Overall, a great place to stop—highly recommend!”
“This is close to home, convenient, and friendly service. The employees are kind and helpful and sometimes know what I need before I do! I would give 5 stars, but I am wary of the patrons that linger around the business and the services they offer. Iykyk”
“You can use your Kroger rewards card here. Got $0.03c/gallon discount on refueling. It's not much but it is something! Take a walk down to thw store to find the very clean and fragrance restroom. It is tucked on the back left corner by the diary section.”
“This is gas station is right off of I70 and SR72 so there are several other options and NONE of them are as nice as this station. I live on our in the county but this is my regular station and I go every day. I typically go at night and the pm crew are super nice! All staff are nice but the pm crew go out of their way to help their customers. The girls know my typical cigarette purchase and they have them ready when they see me pull in. The girls know my little boy loves a particular snack and they make sure I know they have fresh stock. They really help people out, I've seen the staff give customers money so they could cover gas. The girls even help customers that need a little TLC....elderly, disabled etc. I've seen them take an interest to help elderly customers that need help on their time off. The girls have really become friends. They never complain about the company and it seems like a decent work environment. It's a nice, well-stocked very clean station. I hope they come back with kind of loyalty rewards similar to speedway. This station blows speedway outta the water though. I will say this place has the cheapest cigarette prices in town. I hope corporate recognizes the night crew for their awesome work!”
“Best Gas Station in town, attentive, knowledgeable employees. They cater to their customers which keeps us coming back. Thank you guys for the great customer service that you provide. Keep up the good work ?”
“Amazing people work here, the coffee machines are clean even where the beans go in. The store stays stocked, I would say out of 50 times you will find 1 thing out of stock. They do not play games when you buy cigs they come out right every time. Clean bathroom and parking lot”
“The Sunoco station stands at the edge of the roadside like a bright, familiar beacon for travelers, its blue-and-yellow canopy glowing softly even in the middle of the day as cars pull in and out with practiced ease. The pumps sit in two neat rows beneath the shelter, each one humming quietly while digital screens flash through loyalty ads, fuel prices, and weather updates, all softened beneath the steady whir of passing traffic. The air carries a mix of gasoline scent, warm asphalt, and the faint sugary smell drifting from the convenience store’s open door, where a bell chimes each time someone steps inside. The store itself is a compact but surprisingly dense universe—shelves lined with every type of road-trip snack imaginable, from glossy bags of chips and king-sized candy bars to energy drinks stacked in neon-colored pyramids inside refrigerated coolers that hum like distant machinery. Near the counter, rotating racks display lottery tickets, lighters, branded keychains, and travel-sized necessities that drivers suddenly remember they need, while behind the register, the cashier performs the familiar routine of scanning items, calling out totals, and chatting with regulars who stop by for their daily coffee. A television mounted in a corner plays muted news updates while customers browse, and a faint mechanical buzz comes from a slush machine churning brightly colored ice into syrupy layers. Outside, the lot expands into a small mechanical stage of movement: delivery trucks backing up with their hissing brakes, commuters filling tanks before work, and road-weary travelers stretching their legs as they check maps on their phones. The Sunoco feels like a brief but essential pause in motion—a place where engines rest, people regroup, and the rhythm of long drives momentarily softens before everyone merges back onto the road, carrying with them the quiet, transient comfort of a stop that exists solely to keep the journey going.”
“I drive a semi tractor trailer and Sheetz is always clean and the restrooms are very fine and the people who work there are doing the best they know how. I wish, I wish, I wish they would sell coffee that I could somehow drink. Every time the Automated machine spits out the coffee I think to myself, where did they get this pureed possum roadkill. The coffee is a yellow weird mass. Each time I take it to the checkout and I feel like I should say something but apparently that's what they think coffee is. My main two reasons for coming in is to relieve myself and buy some coffee and it defeats half the purpose.”
“Too many bums now , aggressive ones. Also the awning over the pumps is severely rusted and has light showing through. Danger of collapse soon. Ive lived in the neighborhood 30 years now.”
“Called in to ask about the % of ethanol in the fuel. The woman was very polite throughout the conversation. She didn't know the answer so she took my name and number and called me back when she did. That is how service is supposed to be.”
“Excellent service from Gary. He was very positive and upbeat at 4am. Coffee was fresh and the store and bathrooms were impeccably clean! Best stop on our 22 hour drive.”
“I'd like to thank Sherri Lynn for being so kind to me every time I go to Murphys! I am a disabled 65-year-old woman alone with multiple disabilities. She is always very kind, friendly, and helpful every time I see her!”
“This is my favorite gasstation and Drivethru They have always low gas prices and lot's of selection for Beer and wine . Managment is grate fast service and good price.”
“When i went to this store it was very late, 3am. The doors were locked but they were open. The vendor Told me to go around to the drive through. I did and it was all good.”
The Iowa retailer, the third-largest convenience store operator in the country, built its new three-year plan around three priorities: store growth, food and beverage expansion, and kitchen technology upgrades. The company plans to add 120 stores during the current fiscal year. Its previous plan, launched in 2023, delivered more than 500 new stores and earned the company a spot in the S&P 500.
Love's Travel Stops is starting 2025 with ambitious growth plans, adding 20 new stores and updating 50 current locations across the country.

Texas-born Buc-ee's is changing the way people think about gas stations and convenience stores. This chain is known for its huge stores along highways, some with over 100 fuel pumps.

The company wants people to actually plan to stop at Buc-ee's during road trips, not just go there as a last resort. And it's working - the chain has a huge fan base, with Facebook groups dedicated to Buc-ee's having hundreds of thousands of members.
Sheetz Inc., the Pennsylvania-based convenience store chain, is making big moves in the Motor City. The company announced plans to open four more locations across metro Detroit, weeks before opening its first Michigan location. The first Michigan Sheetz will open its doors in late summer at 33380 Wick Road in Romulus. More locations are planned for Taylor, Warren, and Macomb Township, each employing around 30 people, mostly full-time.
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.
