    We are truck drivers that came in for a shower and smokes. Get out of the shower. We both have in our back packs. We are old, grey hair and all. Tattoos. Like you can tell my age! Go to ask for smokes and she wanted all of our ids. Ummm hello, mines in the semi. Can you just scan his for his kind of cigarettes. Nope so here we go. I gotta go grab mine just for her to not ask for his id! No freaking way! Learn to treat people not so horrible. You get to go home to your family every night you rude cashier! Try treating people with respect and kindness. Not just the men you wanna flirt with with behind me! It’s 4:30 in morning and you just started my day off great! Thanks for the worst experience at a gas station.

    Just wanted to say how much I appreciate the great team at the Pilot. Especially Jody. He really went above and beyond to make sure my stop and stay there were amazing.

    I came in on October 19th to get gas. Accidentally said the wrong pump (9 instead of 6) and I was so tired from driving. What happened was my money was taken by some random person who didn’t realize he just got free gas, and the cashier who was swamped with customers made sure I didn’t lose my money and still get my gas. Pretty sure they just ate the cost ($50) and honestly I can’t say enough how much that saved my weekend. Thank You if you’re the one who helped me and reading this.

    Don't go at night. On 19/9/25 I went in at 3:30 am to buy coffee, probably the slowest time there is. It was sooo messy. Even all the little single serving creamers were all gone. Dirty sticky counters, cold coffee almost empty, on the automatic coffee machine that grinds the coffee for you the beans were almost empty. Left over Arby's trash on the tables, spilled coffee on the counters. The cashier was just joking around and talking with the other employee on duty instead of working. Some you go in to and the counter person is restocking, cleaning and getting ready for the day. Definitely not here.
