“Royal Market is a fantastic one-stop shop that offers almost everything you need, from household items to everyday essentials. The store is well-organized, making it easy to find what you're looking for, and their range of products is impressive. It’s the perfect place to pick up various items without the hassle of visiting multiple stores. The lady at the counter is incredibly nice, polite, and helpful. She goes out of her way to assist customers, creating a warm and welcoming shopping experience. I highly recommend stopping by—great selection and even better service!”

“I stopped here only to fill up my gas tank but after doing that, I decided to go inside; intended to get chips and a drink. From the outside, I didn't realize the place is larger than it looks. I stood in line and once I reached the counter, I saw they had fried chicken. Curiosity got the best of me and I bought a chicken breast to see whether it would be tasty. To my pleasant surprise, it was BETTER than the fried chicken from several other gas stations (I like to try fried chicken breast from different gas stations for some weird reason)! It was a bite-sized piece for only $1.25 and it wasn't dry!!! Plenty of good crispiness and taste. This is now one of my favorite two gas stations from which to purchase a piece of chicken breast!!”

“Great place to stop and get gas. The inside has a lot of options and the staff are very kind. The parking lot doesnt have a lot of space so i tend to go later at night. Prices are usually very good as well. I would reccomend coming here.”

“If you go in for tacos in the evening you will be disappointed. They never get your order right. We've ordered tacos at this location several times and they have never been made the way we order them. Tonight we got tacos and that's it. No Lettuce, sour cream, or cheese, just the tacos with none of the fixins. We've complained to corporate several times and had our order replaced, but nothing has changed. I'm not Sure if corporate has addressed it or if the people they're hired just don't care”

“Just stopped in for some soft serve ice cream. Hershey's of course. Omg it was so good. The cup was enough for 2 people so I shared it with my husband. He enjoyed it as much as I did. Friendly staff.”

“There is only two pumps and usually you cant even use them because someone parked in front of them to go inside the store. The reason to stop at this gas station is not for the gas anyways, but for the food. Specifically the fried chicken. Its delicious and as the only fried chicken place here in Stanardsville, its the best. Potato wedges, coleslaw, and beans are available as sides. They also serve hamburgers, hot dogs, and fried gizzards on specific days. Get the chicken, you will not be disappointed.”

“This is a small country store that sells a small variety of things, but it is very pricey on grocery items, they do have fair prices on things like snack foods, sodas and other beverages. Gas prices are reasonable. Unfortunately I can't say that all the staff is pleasant to deal with.... I know if Florence is working I will be greeted with a smile and friendly attitude, my opinion she's the best employee that Holley's Market has.”

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.
