“My favorite spot since moving here. Staff is very friendly and helpful. They always have my favorite drinks and snacks. I've had multiple neighbors help me out and others who are a little short on funds. It is more expensive then some spots, but a business has to stay afloat.”

“Usually I love this place. There are a couple ladies at this coffee place that I really enjoy. I get coffee almost everyday but there is a new girl today and she didn’t change her gloves from the register to cook my food and I found it disgusting. Just ran right over, unpackaged it and touched it with gross money gloves. Also I asked for a breakfast burrito and she got me a sandwich which is whatever. I can’t say anything while I’m there cause I’m embarrassed so I’m just leaving this review so maybe she can be corrected. Still 4 stars cause I really do like the coffee shop”

“Awesome gas prices, sweet convenience store. Great coffee and interesting counter people with great smiles and or quick uplifting conversation. Positive environment. Clean and even has freeze dried space candy along with a wide variety of energy drinks, snacks and sandwiches freshly made. Lots of locals and travelers traversing the real life human web here. A good place to get the pulse of how Yelm’s heart is beating. Small town with lots of traffic and most of it sends to pass through this gem of a store. Easy in easy out. Simply impressing and gratifying along with a steady flow of lotto scratcher winners lol.”

I met Ronald who is so incredibly kind and helped me find the last 2 they had. I had the absolute pleasure of having such a heart felt conversation with Ronald, he is so kind, caring and just full of so much joy. Chevron did an amazing job putting someone so great at their register. Thank you Ronald, I wish you all the best blessings in your life!”

“If you're looking for old-school air pump to inflate your tires, this is the place. Plus, it's a drive through. I went to another place over by the new gas station at the QFC, and it's three dollars for a pump that blows a tiny bit harder than you whistle. I also use this place to gas up...it's very handy.”
