- SFSuhib Fanoun4 days ago2.0I’m giving this location 2 stars only because the washrooms were clean (as they should be). However, having only 25 free parking spots out of 72 is completely unacceptable. This owner has designated most of the lot as 'Prime' parking rather than free, which I have never seen at any other Flying J or Pilot station.
- FWFred WinnFeb 25, 20261.0Signed up for a rewards membership because we were going to Florida pulling a 5th wheel and figured we would get a discount on some gas. We were never able to use the scanner at the pump to scan the barcode to get the discount. I had to go into the store for them to scan the barcode an then prepay for gas which was very inconvenient. Two of the stations we stopped at declined my card at the pump but accepted it inside. There rewards program is a joke.
- JHJay HillFeb 20, 20261.0Thanks to these lovely negative reviews , I won't be going to this pilot☺️😂 . I always look at the reviews of a place before I travel there. Thanks fellas. Lets keep eachother informed on these impudent pilots . 👍🏾🫡
- DLDavid LuczynskiFeb 20, 20265.0The night manager, George, what a great guy. I came in barely getting my truck there. He personally was so understanding and accommodating! He went out of his way to make a difficult situation so mich better! Flying J! Listen to me! A 20 year trucking veteran. George’s hospitality reminded me of the glory truck days! Thank you George!
- MBMatt BFeb 17, 20263.0Five of the seven fuel lanes are down. So it’s a bit of a mess trying to get fuel. Nothing in the flying j pilot app says anything about it. Looks like construction going on in the back lot so not sure about the parking situation. Inside the store is like any other. This one was clean and had everything I needed. Plenty of your snacks, coffee, and a subway. Friendly faces. Nice folks here.
