I love your new Nitro coffee. As an overnight driver it is what I'm looking for. I always mention I…read morehave a Nitro refill, so it gets rung correctly to show the sale, I don't want to to get rid of. This is the only location that is a problem. You have a woman there, short blonde hair with glasses whose life work it seems is to make sure these are rung up properly. Tonight she was cleaning up in the area by the nitro, as I filled my mug she watched me, never said hi or acknowledged I was there. I asked her if I was in her way for the garbage can or sink In the corner and she never responded. She watched me go from the dispenser to the register, watching me like I was a thief, calling the cashier on her radio to make sure it was rung up as a nitro, which it was. I made a comment to the cashier about it and left before I made a scene.

Who knew that my rental car (Toyota 4 Runner) took over 17 gallons to fill up. But with Iowa's…read moreethanol fuel subsidy, the per gallon price was a little better than back home. So as a gas station, this place does what its supposed to, including getting in and out efficiently. One thing the Kwik Star chains have going for them is an impressive array of road snacks, including sweet rolls/donuts that would match a stand alone shop. I also appreciated the clean restrooms and a decent cup of coffee for the road.

In addition to groceries you wont find in other local grocery stores, they also have hair and skin care items (I'm assuming because there's no English on the bottles, only characters in East Asian languages).

What makes this location great is that they are a step ahead of the rest of the competition in the…read moreAmes area. The reason for this is that they have the NFC readers embedded at the pump. This means that consumers can use Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay, Fitbit Pay, etc, without having to go inside the gas station. Although Casey's and Kim and Go have NFC at the registers inside their gas stations, none of them have it at the pump. Right there, that's the way how pumping gas should be done and it shows that at least this Phillips 66 location is committed to the future over not just pumping gas, but paying for items in general.

In between, was the Lake, several days of fresh sweet corn, long walks, wonderful art, good micro-brew, the Iowa State Fair, soft serve ice cream, and reconnecting with old friends. All this was made possible through the use of my Parent's Toyota Camry, of which Dad takes excellent care. Filling up the tank and having the car washed here at this Swift Stop was the least we could do to show our appreciation.

Good & Quick is exactly what it sounds like, a gas station with surprisingly fire chicken.

If they were across the street from each other, I wouldn't be sure which of them were the better Iowa "performer". It was last Sunday that I was driving my 93 year-old Dad down and around the Lincoln Highway. As we entered Ne-VAY-duh (Iowa), I was reminded that my current home is Genoa Ne-VAD-uh. It's actually easy to remember, once you're at either place. The Lincoln Highway sign at the Nevada (Iowa) city limits also tells the story. Anyway, this is a long winded review about filling up with gasoline at a convenient local gas station as father and son explore local downtowns, with a lot of farm land in-between, and usually either a gravel or paved road every mile across endless 640 acre sections. Also in Iowa and mainly due to corn ethanol subsides, premium grade is "cheaper". Our short self-serve trip was "Good & Quick". As other reviewers have noted, there's good mini-mart selections inside, in addition to the broasted chicken option.
