“If you ever find yourself stranded in Kyle, Texas, especially on a day like Veterans Day when all other shops are closed, I highly recommend Bobby's shop, B&V Performance & Auto, suggested by Erasto with Jacob's affordable towing. Initially unsure about a different nearby mechanic, speaking with Bobby changed everything—his genuine and honest approach stood out. Despite the wait until Monday, Bobby ensured continuous updates on my truck's arrival at the shop, and once the work began, he and his partner performed impressively. The truck was swiftly ready by Monday afternoon, and Bobby took the time to explain everything upon pickup. My truck is now running flawlessly! Bobby handled this emergency with care, fair pricing, and exceptional service. I've been spreading the word to everyone in need of reliable mechanics—B&V Performance & Auto is the place to go. Enormous thanks for the invaluable assistance!”
“Went to Olympia hills Golf course today I thought it was a great course to play fairways look great in for the most part besides that freeze greens were great I would recommend this course I am a avid to three times per week golfer not many courses around or that great of shape thanks so much”
“Ok so this place was alright ! Tbh.... it was way overpriced for my liking! The store staff was pleasant to speak with BUT the parking lot was Bad ....very unsafe and inconvenient! I don't think I'd go back there unless I had too ??”
“This is one of the best stops I’ve been to! The customer service is excellent and the place is so clean and well kept. The food is amazing too! I stop there all the time!”
“Store is Always clean as can be. You could eat off the floors inside. Lots of things to eat and drink. Great variety. Staff is always smiling. Gas is always ready and the area is clean. Towels are full for window cleaning.”
“This place does a great job to please and I appreciate them for that! Their breakfast options are far superior to other gas stations with just the pre-made stuff. Will definitely be my go to place when passing through to south Texas and Mexico!”
“Ran in for a can of sweetened condensed milk, and they had some! I was so surprised, but extremely thankful that I didn't have to drive all the way to the store.”
“Owners were very nice and store is really clean. Also the burger place has absolutely phenomenal burger like wow I was blown away with the flavor and how fresh it was. Exceptional.”
“Zakk Zakk zakk This guy is awesome away happy away welcoming people in After a 12 hour shift I come in this guy said what every i can do to make ur night better”
“This is our favorite place to get gas with the scooters...They get 90 miles to a gallon so we don't need gas often...-This location is in the path we take that leads out to the feeder Road, so we get to actually cruise on the open road for a second and then make our little path back home with candy and soda's...Thank you Valero...-Mr. Rayne”
“Always great service when I go in there, but the young man working the register this morning around 10 am is a star. He greeted everyone who walked in, checked several people out at once (3), and had a great demeanor. You have a superstar employee on your hands!”
“Saw the Yelp reviews and decided to try it out. Glad we did! Will be our new "go to" place for a great quick bite. My wife took one bite and said "Wow! This chorizo has SO much more flavor than usual!" And my kids and grandkids ate all theirs up too! So I was a hero this morning!! Thanks team Yelp!”
“I like that they have a table of fruit for sale, along with plenty of good greasy gas station snacks like burritos and tacos, french fries, sandwiches, and more. I only wish they had a couple EV chargers!!”
“Love the Walmart app to pay with and get a discount on fuel. Trash at pumps were emptied and not overflowing and it was easy to get what I needed and get to where I was going. Thank you!”
“I have been coming here for years and have always received GREAT service. The cashiers are always so nice and remember the regulars. Norma the manager is phenomenal and has also contributed donations to the local schools. Love this location!!”
“This place is always squeaky clean, the folks at the register are always smiling and happy to help you. The wine selection is outstanding and reasonably priced. One of the very few gas station mini marts I enjoy going into.”
““This gas station consistently provides a clean, well-maintained environment with competitive fuel prices and fast service. and new management. the convenience store is stocked with a good variety of snacks, drinks, and essentials. Staff members are courteous, professional, and helpful during each visit. The location is well-lit and feels safe, even during evening hours. Overall, it’s a reliable stop for fuel and quick purchases, and I would recommend it to anyone in the area.””
“Until I found a place where the food is very good and the prices too, but the best thing is the friendly treatment, nothing to do with the prices and the treatment of the little crazy, there the cashiers treat you like in a regular canteen.”
“Nice quick and convenient ... staff is always peppy and friendly. This trip the only negative was, several of the pumps had screens that were not working and you could not tell if the pump was operable till you were right up next to it.”
“Cool place employees are really nice and respectful there’s a taco place don’t know why they haven’t added them and the Whataburger does have it’s issues but that’s separate business”
“It's always one of the least expensive fuel stops. It's rare i have to wait for a pump because of congestion. And of course you can also shop for grocery items.”
“This is not your typical stripes. Here everybody knows your name. The best customer service all around. Extremely fun environment. The most laid back crew in the morning. Must stop for delicious breakfast tacos in taco laredo. 100 percent recommend it.”
“Not the most upbeat. The guys stay busy changing oil and doing safety inspections doing their thing. Busy little place. Have used them for years, now and always get fair to great service. Had my truck inspected, in and out in about 30-40 min”
“Fuel pumps are modern with no contact pay, and you can order food while pumping gas. The burger snd chicken joint inside the gas station are awesome. I never thought that gas station food could be that good, but the burgers here are better than Whataburger. The store is always clean and they carry a lot of products that you can’t find at other local gas stations.”

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.
