    The bathrooms were clean. There is a great selection of goodies. THEY HAVE TESLA SUPERCHARGERS! Great service.

    We had never heard of this cute little gas station until our friend from Lake City told us about it! We stopped here on our road trip back home, and it's so clean and cute. The bathrooms are gorgeous and clean. They had boiled peanuts, donuts, candy, pizza, hot dogs, honey, and pickles. They also sold Volcano candles and cute southern decor! My parents loved it even more than Buccees they said since it was not crowded. Would love to stop here again if I'm ever in the area!

    Shoutout to our local community heroes! This venue is so much fun! I love truck stops since I was a kid. Road trips were always more fun with going to stops along the way. This venue was so very beautiful, colorful, organized, friendly, and clean. The atmosphere is like an amusement park store, candy store, and general store packed into one. Store brand merchandise, souvenirs, convenience store type items, pretty fashionable clothing, seasonal items, and so many fun snacks. There's a Burger King and a Dunkin Doughnuts attached and they have so many drink options, nuts, candies, bottled drinks, chips, puffs, coffees, hot dogs, shakes, icees, etc They even carry entire 12 layer type cakes of several flavors! The restrooms are clean, big, bright, and has many stalls. There are many gas pumps too which makes everything available that you need for a rest stop. I definitely recommend stopping by and looking forward to a wonderful visit :)

    This is the SWEETEST suprise. We randomly stopped here on our way home from Florida to Texas. It was sooo cute. It was like a holistic bucees. I didn't want to leave. It was sweet seeing Christan products randomly sprinkled through your the store. We definitely will be making a stop back here next time we come to Florida!

    Am I in a 5 star steakhouse restroom or a gas station??? I would never wear my man's hunting shirt to order a 12 oz filet mignon, so basically I'm in the worlds fanciest gas station restroom!! I seriously feel underdressed LOL! Love me some Lake City and I love how clean this place is! Please reconsider bringing back the hazelnut coffee!

    This is the place to stop when you are in need of gas and virtually anything else a traveler might need in Florida. The shelves are fully stocked, and very well organized. The restrooms are awesome, seriously. Gas was cheap, but of course I'm used to the $1.80 tax per gallon the politicians have levied in CA. Heck, the total price per gallon here was only a few cents more than the CA tax alone ! This is a great refueling stop, especially with the adjoining Burger King.

    I like these gas stations usually located just off the highway that offer a variety of knickknacks in addition to fuel and food. It just makes the stop a bit more interesting. This location is clean and well laid out. It has a bit of everything from toys to jarred quail eggs. A good place to fuel up, maybe grab some Burger King, and a trinket or two.

    There are some fabulous gas stations around the country, and lets be honest, we all hope to find a good one while road tripping! In the Atlanta area we have one of the best in the country, QuikTrip! Their cleanliness, popular food items, friendliness, delicious drink selections, great restrooms and well-stocked stores are the undisputed heavyweight champion in Metro Atlanta (in my opinion). I've also visited other greats such as WAWA in Florida, BUC-EE's in Texas and SHEETZ in the Virginia area and each was awesome! Then there is a service plaza known as Turkey Lake that we truly love when traveling the turnpike to Orlando. It's almost too big, but great for stretching your legs. They have a food court similar to what you would find in a large mall and one of our road trip favorite rest stops! But now I have a new favorite! Busy Bee seems to be just right in almost every way! Size, cleanliness, selection and this particular location has a Burger King & Hunt Brothers Pizza. However, what really impressed me were the restrooms. I will go just about anywhere if I'm standing upright, but you gotta be a special place for me to sit down in your restroom (unless it is a dire emergency)! Busy Bee is so special I might just go there in the future for the privileged. The stall doors stand tall and hang low, for a nice sense of privacy, and bonus... there are plenty of them! I love that because I can'tz be doin' my bid-ness when I gotta worry there is only one stall. You see, somebody almost always starts to jiggling the dang handle, which can temporarily stall my factories progress! But here there are plenty. Not to mention the restrooms are very nice looking and have TV's, I kid you not! [ FINAL THOUGHT ] So if you're traveling down Interstate 10 near exit 301 in Florida and you feel that old familiar growl in your belly or the pressure sensor alarms in your bladder suddenly go off, you will find this place to be a sanctuary to do a whoopsie! Oh, and you can also fill up on gas, snacks, drinks, hot food and other knick-knacks. If you're like me, you'll buy a bunch of stuff as sort of an apology for your purging! I hope they soon begin to spread across the southeast towards Atlanta. QuikTrip could use the competition! 2020 / 110

    Don't use this pump leaking hose, smell the gas....
    Gerg P.

    Nice restrooms, but crappy gas pumps! #3 pump leaked gas from hose swivel onto pavement and shoes. Attendants inside when told of the faulty pump hose failed to do anything about it. Go figure, must be the area. So good place to stop to leave a P or leave a crap but go somewhere else for gas as they don't give a crap.

    If I didn't have to use this pharmacy because the other chain in town is actually worse, I…read morewouldn't. The main issue here is staffing. On 9 calls out of 10 you can never speak to an actual human being. Once you do get to talk to someone with a callback ,I will say they are usually (though not always) helpful. You can hear the stress and frustration in their voices from being overworked. It makes me wonder if they are so short-handed that the quality of their important work is compromised. Their hours are limited, only open until 7pm weekdays which for many customers is not convenient. The CVS IVR and App are useless. The IVR never "understands' and it seems the app frequently fails to find my RX account or has information from a previous account/location from years ago. If anyone at the corporate level reads these reviews, my question is: How can you stay in business at this location if you can't even find enough staff to help customers whose "business is important to us"?

    I've had a horrible time trying to get a prescription delivered. CVS first stopped delivery of one…read moreprescription the day before I was to receive it, then in trying to get it again, they said they were filling my order and I should see it in a week. A week passed and nothing. I called, they could see the conversation but had zero explanation as to why they didn't ship it out. With great promises that it was going out, they promised overnight delivery. When I called today, it was being delivered to the wrong address. They did say they would try to correct their mistake and it would be here tomorrow. I'm out of my medication. This evening I got notice they aren't getting my prescription to me until after the 4th of next month. I can get no explanation and they just keep making empty promises with taking ZERO responsibility. THIS IS NOT OKAY! They have had 3 weeks to get it right and now it's affecting my health.

    I think the store manager needs to step back and re-evaluate the scheduling of their employees in…read morethe pharmacy dept. My wife called at 9:10 am on Saturday. She was placed on hold for 41 minutes and 52 seconds before someone picked up and answered. She was on the phone with the staff for a whole 20 seconds to take her info to confirm her script. They only had 5 people scheduled on a Saturday, 1 pharmacist, 2 pharmacist helpers, 1 drive-thru, and 1 counter person. Knowing that the pharmacy closes early on Saturday and Sunday and it's going to be even busier on the weekend than during the weekday. They could've had more people on staff in intervals so that it was constantly flowing smoothly. During the week you'll see as many as 7 or 8 people back there working helping the Pharmacist and keeping the flow moving. Don't get me wrong. I understand they're busy but it is crazy to have to stay on hold for over 41 minutes. So if this store is so busy in the pharmacy, then put 2 pharmacists on duty to catch up. So I called Walgreens to speak to the manager and was told they weren't in but there was a lead associate that could talk to me, so I said ok. After a brief 4 minute hold, Rachel answered again and said that he was working the register and it might be a while before he can clear the line to answer the phone. Rachel also tried to convince me that they were extremely busy at 9:45 am with a line going around the building for the drive-thru and that they are backed up. This is a perfect example of why management needs to re-evaluate the scheduling so there is appropriate coverage at all times. This put's a lot of stress on the workers because customers are complaining that there isn't enough staff working. So I wonder if the manager ever worked the floor in a retail, or does he just walk around in his suit and tie and make big decisions on how to make it worse for everyone. I left North Florida Pharmacy because they closed much earlier than Walgreens. But at this rate, I might just go back to the North Florida pharmacy or go to CVS. At least North Florida's average wait time is less than 20 minutes if I walked in the door with a script.

    Great staff and really super great pharmacists at this location. The staff and pharmacist are very…read morekind and professional. This is the busiest pharmacy I have ever seen and they work hard for their patients. Sometimes when you call you have a long wait but that is because they serve so many people but no matter how stressful it must be, they are always courteous and professional and kind
