Stopped by to get gas and grab a sandwich at Subway. It was quite busy, but the scenery around was beautiful with the snow.

I like this Pilot Travel Center. Well organized store and friendly cashier. I stopped in for a basic cup of coffee, few gallons of gas, and quick restroom break. The Pilot app has a "ten cents off per gallon" promotion currently being offered. Subway on location, serving up them classic sloppy cold cuts. Quick access to I40.
Overall experience: 5 outta 5. Would definitely stop here again...
