“My favorite local gas station. The owner really cares. He takes the time to clean the water traps for the wells and insures he is selling a clean good product. The attendants are always very nice and the hours are for a family run business. They definitely have ethanol free gas and it’s my place to go for it. This is where I fill up my motorcycles because it’s clean fuel.”

“Wade and Dale were great and did a great job on my old truck. Friendly service, solid communication, and reasonable prices. I will be using them again; hopefully not anything soon though.”

“I've been visiting Narrowsburg for at least a decade and this has been my go to gas station. From what I recall, the pumps are a little slow but who cares. The scenery is beautiful and you get some time to enjoy the clean air.”

“What they lack maybe in selection of some convenience items compared to other stores they make up with the food they make. It blows wawa and Sheetz out of the water and their Italian sub sandwich is probably the best I've had in my entire life. Definitely worth the money and nice alternative to what you'd expect when you enter a similar type place”

“Pulled into this rural NY gas station/convenience store thinking it was gonna be a quick, normal stop. Gas, maybe a drink, in and out. That’s how it starts. That’s how they get you. We walk in and it’s immediately clear… we are the only customers in this dimension. No background noise. No chatter. Just the hum of a fridge that sounds like it’s thinking about quitting. And there he is. The clerk. Leaning back in his chair like he’s been there since the founding of the United States. Not asleep. Not fully awake. Somewhere spiritually in between. I genuinely couldn’t tell if we were supposed to check out with him or just leave money on the counter like an offering. We make eye contact for half a second and I swear he gave me the universal “I’ve seen things” look, then went right back to his reclined state like nothing had ever happened. The store itself? Weirdly normal. Almost offensively normal. Like it’s trying to distract you from the fact that time is behaving differently inside. We grab what we need, trying not to break the silence too aggressively. Every movement feels like it echoes a little too long. Check out is fast. Too fast. Like the transaction was already pre-approved by fate. We leave. No words exchanged. No emotional closure. Just vibes. Would I go back? Yeah. Not because I want to… but because I feel like I left without fully understanding the lore.”

“Nice little store and prices are average. The place was VERY quiet. The store clerk was friendly and had a great selection of snacks which was a bit more expensive than normal.”

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.

Read the postLove'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.
