Located just north of US 36 on the east side of Danville, a fairly new gas station and convenience store was built. Though near the highway, the only access is from the county road that crosses at an intersection with a stop light. And though it might be nice to pull out of the station directly to the highway to head into Danville, I can understand that having all customers (including semis) pulling onto the less busy county road was a safety decision.
As I pulled in, the cars/non-diesel vehicles turned to the south while the larger trucks had a separate bay area for diesel. The convenience store was located directly west of the car bays.
The equipment at the pumps was all pretty new and made paying at the pump with a credit card fast and easy. The pumps worked to fill my tank quickly too.
Note that the bay for the pumps are single depth, so there is no pulling in behind another vehicle to fuel. I liked that too since it seems safer as well. However, the overhead/roof for the bays are quite high and because they aren't especially wide (front to back), a blowing wind made it difficult to stay dry when it started raining. I like to stand by the pumps while fueling (as suggested), but the rain made it not as pleasant. I'm sure on sunny days, there is no problem.
I didn't go into the convenience store for a purchase, so I can't comment on how wide the offerings are or how quick the clerk service is, but everything was neat outside and appeared to be the same inside.
If you are in the area, I would suggest filling your tank here for a safe and convenient stop.
