“Extremely helpful staff at the store. Helped me with understanding how to fill gas at the gas station, it was my 1st time in US, and the lady quite patiently helped me with the steps. Some times simple steps feel stressful to start, and good help is all that is required to go ahead. Thank You for being a great samaritan.”
“This is the best staff of any buisness in the area hands down! Only complaint is somewhere in upper management I assume the chicken biscuit has been comprised and is no longer the same. Which before was the greatest breakfast of all time history. Now it’s just a regular pidly chicken biscuit.updated its gone?”
“Best pizza around!! They now carry Black Rifle Coffee drinks! I'm excited to see the progress on their gas pumps. It's my goto place for work commutes... so gas would be an extra bonus.”
“I started a very long drive home to Boston from Richmond va. 30 miles in on the highway my breaks locked up. I pulled off into the nearest exit and found Tim here at exxon. Thank the universe i did. He happened to know a guy who could help repair my truck and had the part. I am shocked at the courtesy and willingness to help not just me feel okay, but diagnose the problem”
“They sell Krispy Krunchy Chicken ? and Honey Biscuits. It's delicious. Red Beans and Rice ? is great but the servings are too small for the price. I'll just grab a couple of cans from Food Lion and save money ?”
“Appears to be a newer store. Was very clean inside and restrooms are also clean. A lot better than the one at 2053 Huguenot Rd in Richmond VA. The management of the one in Richmond could learn a few things from the cleanliness of the store in Ruther Glen.”
“Friendly owner, I handicapped and he pick my items for me, even thought he doesn't have too. Make you feel at home, also the fried chicken and potatoes wedges are great!!!”
“Usually I just stop and get fuel. Today though I needed a money order. They don't have that service but the gentleman working today informed me that the Food Lion just down the street does.”
“We were out of towners from New York and New Jersey stopped in to gas up and use the restroom. April who was the cashier that rung us up was very polite, sweet, and kind, we appreciated how she asked us to round up the change to support the veterans. The store was very clean and the bathrooms were spotless and i normally don’t use public restrooms but i would surely go out of my way to use yours next time i’m vacationing your location in the great state of Virginia is the ultimate best! We appreciate her hospitatality and look forward to seeing her in the future! Amar and Theresa”
“Always clean easy access.Great place to tough when you need to go to the ladies room before you hit the city.We always stop at these convenient restaurants on route fifteen”
“We stopped on our way in from NYC heading home to NC around midnight 7/18. Candance and Josh were sooo nice and helpful. Josh went tot the back freezer to find me the Peanut Butter bits! Which was much needed since I still had 3.5 hours drive time. We will make sure to stop on our travels to VA!!! Bathrooms were very clean also!!”
“We liked this station so much on our way to Durham, we made a point of stopping on the way back.Good prices, adjacent to McDonald's.A great place to stop for a break.”
“There was two lines that were no less than 7 people deep. I had to go in because they had something that came up on the gas pump saying go see the cashier. I waited almost 35 minutes to get to the cashier. She said how much are you putting in the vehicle? I said I don't know, I am filling it up. She said, I need a number. I said , I don't know. Filling a pickup gas tank around half full. She said if you don't give me a number, I no problem. I will go to another fuel station! I drove next store, same price same selection I needed and no lines. Thank you for being there, and making life easier. I will definitely definitely stop here rather than go next door from now on.”
“I been coming her for a few years now I love these guys they make my day always great conversation and lots of laughs they are the best and they are worth the wait if their happens to be a line.Excellent service⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“It’s a real breath of fresh air to see the young man back at the gas station. While his mother was running it, prices—especially on beer—got too high for a small town. Since he's returned, prices are more reasonable again, and he’s always polite, helpful, and especially patient with the elderly. He really brings a good energy to the place. Glad to have him back behind the counter!”
“Food is depending on who is cooking, the cooks have very bad and rude attitudes, I tell them I didn't do anything to you, you don't want to be here quit. Don't be rude to the customers.”
“I don’t know if the whole thing is new but it sure does look that way. Sparkling clean inside including the restrooms. Courteous help at the counter. Ample parking, pumps in good repair. Highly recommend!”
“Use location frequently, conveniently located, clean and very good fuel prices. Sometimes have had trouble with paying at pump, but it's heavily used and popular. Lots of conveniences and goods.”
“DISCLAIMER: This post/information shown below is based solely on my opinion and experiences. This is the RITZ CARLTON of truck stops! **SHOWERS HERE ARE CLEAN, have plenty of HOT WATER and great WATER PRESSURE. The technicians (Ryan, etc.) keep the showers and bathrooms spotless.

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.
