“Do you want the cheapest gas around? Do you want discounted tabacoo products? Do you want some good, quick and budget friendly hot foods? And to top it off, you even get friendly, sometimes sarcastic, but always genuine service. Then this is the place to go. But if you only need a bathroom, that is clean for a king, or a place for unesseceary negative comments, I am sure you can find one at home that would meet all the negative BS you need to release on that porcelain crown of crowns. Love this business, workers and all the value it brings to the community”

“The Owner, Nick, & his staff are always incredibly polite & friendly. The store is kept clean & well stocked with everything you would expect from a local gas station convenience store. Recent remodeling & upgrades to the inside of the store were a great improvement… They just made their dining area awesome by adding some classic arcade games, as well as a full-size air, hockey table, a dartboard, a real basketball game, & some claw machine prize games. Check out the pics I posted. Also, if you don’t feel like getting out of your car, they have a really big, & really well stocked drive-through practically next-door where you can quickly get all of your daily supplies.”
