“Its a discount gas station, not sure what more to say. Yes there are long lines, but they move fairly fast. The issue is that people do not know how to drive, or can not figure out how to operate a gas pump, which is really no fault of the business”
1225 West Bakerview Road, Bellingham WA 98226
“Typically not too busy. I never wait anymore now with Costco gasoline across the street. Better option if you are in a hurry. Gas prices are better than most. You get a few cents off if you shop at Fred Myer stores and have a rewards card. I go there sometimes. Usually I go to Costco. Fred Myer gas station is open until 11 pm.”

“If you're a Costco member you know what to expect. The Bellingham Costco has been our usual stop to gas up with lower gas prices on our way to Canada. However, on a recent trip, gas was priced less in Canada. A bonus at the Bellingham Costco is a fantastic automatic cash wash facility for only $7.99.”

They allowed me to stay there for over 4 hours, and made sure we had help on the way. Even allowed us use of their restroom with no complaints. I was incredibly touched by their kindness and obvious care for other people.”

“Easy crossing on the ferry to Lummi Island. Just get there early and wait in your car in the lines. You can get out and grab somethings at the new Lummi bay market/convenience store across the road while you wait. They also have a decent restroom. But get back to your car before the ferry arrives. Ferry staff is really great at packing all the cars in tight. Just follow there instructions and enjoy the view on the short ride over.”

“I have been going here for years because the family is so nice! Now it is incredibly convenient being between my work and home - but it has been near different jobs I have had for several years. They are always nice and always have a treat waiting for my dog even if he is not with me. I find it a little bit unfair that some people are giving low star reviews as a result of the homeless people that they may run into during a visit. That is everywhere downtown at this point, and has nothing to do with the owners of this business. They are great people and the store has what you would expect/need from a convenience store. Definitely a family/business to support!”

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.
