“Lisa, Lisa, Lisa! Can we just stop for a second and talk about how lucky this business is to have an employee like Lisa!? I have never met somebody who goes out of their way more than she does. She is incredible at multitasking, moves the line along quickly while still being friendly, knows the price of every item & whether they have it available/in-stock, and knows nearly every customer by name. My boys are huge fans of her hashbrowns and beg me to stop at this gas station! With 4.8 rating and employees who have worked there for years… Somebody is doing something right! Well done!!!”

“Stopped there while going to Boston last year just before pendamic and I did loved the service they gave me . Also the freshness or their sandwiches and products in general was pretty good and they got plenty of choices as well. That's where I discovered the J.J Bakery company products don't remember how it was called but basically was kinda mix between a donut and an empanadas glazed on top filled with Boston cream and chocolate and I know for fact that product isn't sold in Canada which make me pretty sad”
