I have stopped at this store many times on my way through Topeka due to the fact that I travel there a lot. There's two sides to this review. The first side is that the place is under renovation. That being said before the renovations the Staff that were working there we're very nice and very helpful. Before the renovations the place was small if there was more than two people in The Isle, you were kind of cramped but they had the shelves fully stocked with items you never had to question where anything was, and even if you weren't purchasing anything you were allowed to use the restroom if you needed to. The only drawback was the Greyhound bus system was connected to the building and a lot of times you ran into a lot of undesirables hanging around the bus station. it was hard to determine whether these people were actually riding on Greyhound, or if they were just up there panhandling... but that was an annoyance from time to time. The second half of this review is now that the renovations are taking place the aisles are wider, but the shelves are less stocked than they were before. the prices have ridiculously gone up, to the point where you are willing to buy your snacks and drinks somewhere else indefinitely. The staff that used to work there are no longer there, which I don't know how that came to be. whether it's been bought by another company and they let all the former workers go...I don't know what happened with that. But the people who work there now, are younger Latino teenagers so therefore there's a lot of playing around on the job and a lot of rudeness towards customers. I've walked in and found people laughing and giggling behind the counters, texting on their cell phones when customers are standing there waiting to be waited on. The biggest letdown is they will not let you use the restroom unless you purchase something. my suggestion is if you can wait to go to another gas station for something to eat or for gas do so...go somewhere else.
