“These people are amazing. Always. Every single one of these men and women deserve the bestest every of the time. They go above and beyond. I'm so very appreciative of the service. I'm saying this at 4:30 on July 5th because I had simple question. She didn't want me to have a simple answer. She checked and gave me a quality answer. But even when I come before work or any other time, they're still amazing always. Before work I get Steve and he's amazing too. Big Ups. Much appreciation. Give them pats on the back and a good bonus. Good people.”
“The big advantage of this fueling station is their sale of ethanol-free gasoline. I use it for all of my small engines. With a stabilizer added, I do not need to drain fuel systems for my small engines for winter storage. In addition, those small engines have more power. My walk behind Honda mower is now 18 years old and runs like new on their ethanol-free fuel. I use it with 2-cycle oil for my chainsaw, hedge trimme and leaf blower. They all start on the second or third rope pull without fail.”
“I love this car wash. I live about 15 mins away from this place but will ALWAYS make the drive to get my car washed here. I usually get the platinum one or whichever one is the most expensive ($27) which includes everything. I really love that there are people there to guide you into the car wash and they offer you free air fresheners that you can place under your seats or in your door pockets. They also usually use a mop to scrub down the back of your car before you start the wash. My only complaint would be the dryers being really weak or just way too short because it never ever dries my car, it always come out dripping wet. But they do offer clean towels to wipe your car down with if you care about the droplet marks. They also have great vacuums to use afterwards. In the warm summer months they also usually offer glass cleaner for your mirrors, windows, windshields, etc. AND a floor mat washer that you can feed your floor mats into and it's about a 5 min cycle that washes your floor mats real good.”
“Goeman's has the gas, food, and supplies that everyone needs. Sandwiches are excellent quality. The Sassy Cow chocolate milk tastes good, too. It's available in a short, stubby quart.Need a meal? The restaurant nearby specializes in BBQ food.”
“Best store I've been to in HartfordThey have respect for their customers even if customer is rude , I give the store thumbs up keep up the good work...you will always have my business...”
“I used to stop here several times a week when I drove a large commercial vehicle. At that time I had no real complaints to speak of.Now I come in and I have that sense that things are even better than they were. I'm comfortable coming back again and again.”
“Just want to thank the girl working around 8am today, 10/30. I just stopped for some coffee for convenience as I didn't have time to go across town to the caribou. She showed me a really great kindness with my just coffee purchase and I wanted to let her know just how much that meant to me. I've had a rough couple weeks of some low days and her kind act made all the difference to me. So thank you.”

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.
