About

This spot is a mixed bag for locals. While some appreciate the competitive gas prices and EBT acceptance, many complain about broken pumps, inconsistent hours, and rude service. The store cleanliness is a major pain point, with frequent reports of bad odors and poor stock. Safety concerns in the parking lot also keep some regulars away. It is a quick stop for some, but definitely not a place to linger.
