The convenience store was well stocked with so many yummy (and fresh!) goodies from fresh popcorn, beef jerky, gummy bears, fruits and a large selection of candy and drinks. The space itself was spacious and the workers were AMAZING. So incredibly kind and welcoming. This spot definitely gives a small town feel and I loved it! Will stop in again soon!

It's connected to one of those jerky outlets that you always see advertised on the interstate but is probably only frequented by jerky fanatics of which I'm not one However this place features a nice convenience store with a sizable pumping area as well as access to the main road and a side road It's usually very busy but it would probably be a rather dependable place if you're getting low and you're in the neighborhood

It's clean, which is obviously more difficult to maintain when it's larger but somehow they manage to keep it tidy, including the bathrooms There are so many goodies inside! From Mackinac Island fudge, to F'real milkshake/smoothie machine, to ice cream (which was our main purpose for the visit) This is one of those places where the smallest ice cream is 3 scoops of deliciousness. What I really appreciated was the courtesy of the employee who put on the first scoop and asked if I wanted the other 2 scoops, since it was for my child. I appreciated the kindness of the staff and they all seemed to be in good spirits during our visit. Anyway, I quickly agreed, knowing full well she would be sharing with me. The "Pothole" ice cream was heavenly and I think the generous portions make it taste better. It's really affordable too. I think $1.99 for the small? Regardless, it was with it for the memories. But I'll probably be returning more frequently next summer.

I've hit this station several times, usually when leaving the West Branch area, where we've often stayed at a friend's house on the lake, or sometimes on the way down from the UP. The location is convenient, there are plenty of pumps, adequate parking, and they serve fresh Coffee Beanery coffee here, not the cheap gas station variety that sucks. I like this location because it is an easy on/off access to the expressway, less than a mile back to the ramps. The store is clean, has the best coffee, and the cashiers are always friendly and ask about my trip, a good variety of snacks, plus they have some kitschy novelty souvenirs, including t-shirts, art and rustic Northern Michigan doodads. I think, even though it's a gas station/convenience store, that this is the place to stock up for your weekend trip if you're staying in the area. The bathrooms are even clean by gas station standards and it's open 24/7. There is a gas station across the street, however, I always stop here because it's bigger and cleaner, plus they have all those weird souvenirs that I think are amusing.

The ONLY change I said for the sub was no green peppers... We get home after the lady was quite rude, and my husbands sub was full of mayo (who tf puts mayo on a damn cheese steak)?? Two little pieces of roast beef (not even steak), onions that were I swear to God whole, not cut. I don't understand how they charged me $12.99 for that!! The pizza was good other than there was maybe two strands of cheese on it. But I could accept the pizza, just not the sub for 13 damn dollars ... With no steak meat!!!

I heard it used to be really good, but I found it to be pretty greasy and un appealing. I have heard some of their sandwiches and things are pretty good, but I haven't tried them. The pizza is better than grabbing something from a fast food place for sure if you're looking for a quick bite of something to eat, it's fine because they sell it by the slice.
