“Prices here are always lower than surrounding area - sometimes as much as 10 cents/gallon lower. It's pretty quick to get in and out, even if there's a line. It runs pretty smoothly. You can scan your membership card or scan the qr code on the app to begin. The attendant is helpful and friendly, even on 95° days when the 'feels like' temp is 101°!”
40 Heritage Dr, Palmyra VA 22963
“The Market at the Lake is my go to spot for gas, beer and snacks. The staff is always friendly and fast. They know immediately that I have the Market rewards card. Keep up the great work!”

“I brought my sedan here after the engine started shaking during idle. They diagnosed it as a faulty spark plug issue and a dirty throttle body. The mechanic explained everything step by step without making it sound complicated, which I appreciated. Repairs were done the same day, and they even cleaned the engine bay lightly after finishing. The difference in how the car runs is noticeable immediately, especially at stoplights. It feels much smoother and quieter now. Communication was consistent throughout, and I was never left wondering what was happening. Overall, a solid and professional repair experience.”

“Sams gas prices match Costco, but what makes Sam's superior is you do not have to wait in line to gas up. How can anyone compete with that. In my book that makes them the best!!!!!”

“Thank you manager Tim, Stayed late and let us look at security footage after our friend got his wallet stolen and card declined at the gas station. Helped us track down the cards too.”

“There’s a guy named a Ciaran who works here and he handles the pressure of the rush with an amazing attitude. Costco should hang on to this guy and give him a raise!”

“Quick service and delicious grab and go food with the options to order fried chicken and all the fixings, fully recommended for a quick fill up and on the go lunch”
3171 District Ave, Charlottesville VA 22901
“The store and the employees are great but I don’t know what happened to their pizza. It comes out either underdone or burnt up. Please fix this issue. I have been at other Costco and they are not that way.”
3171 District Ave, Charlottesville VA 22901
“Staff easy to reach by phone and will go out of the way to contact other pharmacies and doctor’s offices to resolve issues with my scripts. Love the text messaging system so I can see when my script is ready and the price, and the text message refill reminders too. They also automatically check to see if my insurance or their own pricing program gives me the better price. I’ve gone to other pharmacies but always keep coming back here.”

“This may be some of the best Mexican food in town!! There are 3 ladies that will make you fresh tortillas to go with your meal. The gas station itself is normal, but the food is next level!!!”
1907 Emmet St N, Charlottesville VA 22901
“It was nice and friendly. Gas prices are too high right now. My gas was $10 more than what I was paying to fill up, but that is not Exxon's fault. Happy Travels!”
1980 Rio Hill Center, Charlottesville VA 22901
“Still the best gas and cheapest for Kroger card members around. Just buying from Kroger with my groceries, no complaints with those and prices either, plus I think another place I usually get about 30cents to $1 off fuel. Depends on how much I spend at the grocery store. It's no big deal, need to eat but saves me at the pumps!”
3455 Seminole Trail, Charlottesville VA 22911
“I got some really comfy socks here after scratching my ankle walking sock-less in my new Converse. Their gas prices are good too. Six cents cheaper than the surrounding areas.”
2161 Barracks Rd, Charlottesville VA 22903
“It’s a wonder in our world when you actually meet helpful people that are invested in you and your well-being. Finley’s service center has constantly bent over backwards to help me out of difficulties when my car decides not to cooperate. I can’t recommend them enough.”
820 Pantops Cor Wy, Charlottesville VA 22911
“Wawa's in skyline drive is an awesome little convenience store. The prices are reasonable and the associates are very friendly. They have a Little deli located inside. They have excellent food at reasonable prices. They have a great selection of food. The store was not crowded at all. I highly recommend this Wawa's.”

“I had to come on and rave about how awesome our Charlottesville Costco is - especially Simone from the Tire Center who saved me soooo much today!! I thought I had a screw in my tire and wasn't sure if they needed to be replaced (good ol AWD vehicles). While walking past the tire center, Simone asked if she could help me and I explained my problem. Without missing a beat she asked which vehicle was mine & went to see with her own eyes. (PS - I have absolutely just interrupted her workday flow and I'd never know it from the BEYOND accommodating way I was treated). After inspection, she discovered it was an extremely lucky situation that required her only to remove the pin and there seemed to be no leak. BUT NO - SHE WAS NOT DONE BEING AMAZING - Simone went in to get soapy water and checked to make sure that no air was escaping and saved me 4 NEW TIRES. Y'all that is no small expense when I was just told I'd have to replace them all by another company! Just had to come on here and say thank you to Simone - you absolutely made my day & your kindness was felt throughout the whole process. Thank you Simone, thank you Costco Tire Shop, thank you again to Simone - I am so glad to have such an amazing Costco in Charlottesville to count on. And they are only made great by the employees that make them that way!!”

“The gas here is consistently a reasonable price. The neighboring gas stations might undersell sometimes, but it’s only a few cents. The station is usually tidy and clean, and the customer service is great.”

“Tiger Fuel is a step above all competition. This is not just a gas station where you can choose from a nice selection of local and stand-by beers, but a family of coworkers fully supported by their team.”
3171 District Ave, Charlottesville VA 22901
“Costco is an exceptional organization all around and that includes their vision services. We enjoy the big selection of glasses and the very personal service doing the eye measurements before ordering and then custom fitting them after the glasses are made. Excellent prices.”
1301 E High St, Charlottesville VA 22902
“Nice and social employees, with competitive prices on both gas and products. This station’s been around since the ’80s or ’90s, and it’s got that authentic old-school gas station charm. Yeah, some people complain about it being outdated, but that’s literally the point. You don’t pull up to a Sunoco expecting smoothies and artisan sandwiches. You swing through, grab a cheap snack, maybe a Gatorade, and keep it moving. In my opinion, this Sunoco knows exactly what it is and leans into it. That’s why it works. Stop expecting caviar at the corner store.”
701 Cherry Ave, Charlottesville VA 22901
“Name another staff that learns it's customers.......I'll wait but in the meanwhile get a fresh pickle and scrumptious sandwiches with a new cranberry relish concoction.”

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.
