“If you need premium fuel for your engine it can save to buy Costco gas. I've seen a 20 cent per litre difference vs. name brand especially during volatile world events. The fuel is rated Top Tier so it's not bottom of the barrel blend. I usually buy Costco gas later in the evening to avoid line ups and sometimes the price drops a bit more after 8pm.”
“Called the store on a Saturday afternoon looking for car tires and talked to an associate named Chris Wilson and this gentleman went out of his way over the phone to be helpful and informative. Exceptional customer care service. I actually called three other Canadian Tire stores in the area while shopping for tires and this individual was head and shoulders above everyone else in helpfulness. I have shopped at this Canadian Tire location in the past and if you want a customer friendly /no-sense environment where the staff are there to help you, this is the place to shop!”
“I’ve been coming to this gas station for about 10 years, and I just want to take a moment to recognize Jesse for the amazing service he consistently provides. Jesse is hands down one of the kindest, most genuine people you’ll meet. Every time I come in, he’s welcoming, respectful, and always willing to help. It’s rare to see someone who treats every customer with such patience and professionalism, no matter how busy it gets. What really stands out is his attitude. he goes above and beyond to make sure you’re taken care of, and he does it with a positive energy that honestly makes your day better. You can tell he truly cares about his work and the people he interacts with. After 10 years of coming here, I can confidently say that Jesse is a big reason I keep coming back. If you’ve had the chance to be served by him, you know exactly what I mean. Thank you, Jesse, for always being consistent, kind, and reliable. It doesn’t go unnoticed.”
“For well over 25 years I've been getting my propane tanks filled at Costco. Now they removed it, I was very happy to find this location just down the road, to fill my tanks. The person at the counter went straight out and filled my tank right away. $20 for the propane (comparable to what I paid at Costco) + $5 to dispose of my old expired tank (free at Costco, but I was ok to be rid of it).”
“Handy drive-thru Tim Hortons, and we like the 'Soft Touch' car washed. Employees, whether working the Circle K or the Tim's, are always friendly and / or helpful.”
“i was just stranded in the area on my bike with a dead phone at 2 in the morning, nobody to call and no cash on me. Shawn helped me out by letting me charge my phone enough to get a lyft, he offered me some water and made conversation. super grateful for the help !!! i made it home safe thanks to him !”
“I often go to this gas station and always have a great experience. The place is clean, organized, and the service is quick and friendly. What really stands out is the manager, he is an absolutely unique person, very respectful, attentive, and truly cares about customers. His positive attitude makes the whole place feel welcoming. Highly recommended!”
“Clean, convenient, and well stocked. The pumps were easy to use, the prices were reasonable, and the staff was friendly and efficient. A solid stop for fuel and quick essentials.”
“I find the prices here always pretty competitive. More expensive than the ones on Merivale close to Costco, but less expensive than the Esso down the road. The workers inside are difficult to understand. Took away a star for that”
“Pretty good stop. Car wash. Propane exchange. Ice. Sports drinks and small snacks inside. They were restocking when I went in and boxes were strewn all over the floor in the main area. There is a washroom for customers only which is quite boldly posted. Wiper fluid that they sell isn’t the top brand but it works. Window brush containers were full. Property is a bit dated and dirty but otherwise a great spot to get gas or other things.”
“Busy location with friendly and efficient staff, clean & well-stocked store. These poor employees have to deal with a lot of verbal abuse on a daily basis—the same types leaving these negative reviews. Let me give you a hint: if you’re trying to purchase cigarettes, HAVE YOUR ID ON YOU. If you’re purchasing gas, HAVE A VALID PAYMENT METHOD ON YOU. If you want a carwash, don’t come at closing time and get angry that you weren’t the only one with the same idea. It’s not rocket science, people.”
“Love this place. Nice, clean, organized and fully stocked. Had been doing car wash for last few years and have been buying my lottery tickets here. Love the staff. Very polite and helpful.”
“It's somewhat appalling to read reviews stating poor customer service is being provided. There's an older gentleman who usually works in the mornings. He has always been so helpful and polite. Today, I let him know that one of the cans in the fridge might have been damaged as there was sticky residue on the can I was buying. I only did this to make him aware. He immediately cleaned the can, and gave me a bag as well. Maybe I've been lucky, but I've always had a great experience.”
“The attendant was very friendly and cooperative.I bought $27 worth of prepaid gas,and a 649 lotto.she was very fast in serving me,and right to greeting the next customer as I was leaving..Her name was Nandini..That is common practice with all the attendants that works there..That's why I go to that particular gas station, the service is always great..”
“Today on July 18 , 2025 at 1:10 PM , I visited this gas station first time and their staff , their service and their store and the most important things that other gas station don’t focus on their wash room was so clean and smell like rose . I would recommend everyone one should see their services and the store . THANK YOU”
“Finally good service! Usually I was served by two individuals who appeared to be from India so the customer service aspect was extremely sub par on every occasion I visited, lately with the staff change, my experience has been nothing but smooth and accommodating.”

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.

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.

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.
