“I can't say enough about this place. I travel almost a half an hour every other day just to get there and I'm never disappointed. At first I would just get their delicious chicken and then I slowly sampled the rest of the menu. I quickly realized that everything taste good at Owens. The staff in the kitchen area is phenomenal. They work as a team. They are always warm and inviting. The cashiers always make me feel welcome. They speak to you when you come in and when you go out. Owens delivers great food and great service in a warm environment.”

“I stopped by this gas station during a road trip, and I was pleasantly surprised. The pumps were clean and well-maintained, with plenty of space to maneuver. Payment was quick and easy, and I appreciated that the air pump was free and functional—something you don’t see often these days. Inside the store, the atmosphere was welcoming. The shelves were well-stocked, and everything looked tidy. They had a solid selection of snacks, drinks, and hot food. I grabbed a breakfast sandwich and a coffee—both exceeded my expectations. The sandwich was fresh and hot, and the coffee was strong (in a good way!). The staff was friendly and quick at the register, which made the whole experience even better. Whether you’re just fueling up or need a quick bite, this gas station is a solid stop.”

“This mart is in a great location, especially since the next place to get gas is at least 5 miles in either direction. They also have propane tanks. The staff is friendly and multicultural. There's an ATM and a select variety of beverages and snack items. There is a grill also, even has a counter to dine on. There is a restroom and it was clean. They have lottery and gaming machines for entertainment. They also have a picnic table outside in a cozy, shaded location. There are social distancing protocols on the door, but I do not feel like they are enforced, the average of customers wearing masks was consistent, though, not everyone feels that they must abide. This spot is super handy, if they stay open, so far, so good!”
