Don’t go here! Freaking card readers don’t work. Finally got it to work and then the pump wouldn’t continuously pump. Kept popping even when i held it at the same pressure. Just don’t go here unless you want aggravation and waste of your time.

Each time I purchase a breakfast sandwich via the drive-through, I experience the same difficulty with a female manager who seems condescending. Today, she had trouble counting my change for a $5.36 sandwich. I gave her a 10 dollar bill, 3 dimes and 6 pennies. At the second window, a staff member abruptly handed me my order without a word. We are not a cashless society yet... However, my main point is the lack of courtesy and unprofessionalism from this franchise. 🚫

How ridiculous! They take their break for up to an hour, they have 3 showers available, but they can't be used because the person is on their break... Seriously? More than an hour?

I called to rent a shower because the online site said it was available to the public. And was told this store hate homeless and only rent to those they deem worthy... well she said it professional like. Seriously, how bad are their paying customers who are homeless to chose not to let them spend their money their?
I think Pilot can be a gas station i avoid now... flying j is it. Got it! Only the privilege can rent the public showers.
