I waited in a long line (this is quite a busy station store, and parking lot traffic does not quite abide by the painted markings on the road) only to be told that the system was not working and to check back in the next days. This is rather unfortunate during the first weekend of the fishing year. On the plus side, there is free compressed air here, which sometimes works. Bring your own pressure gauge or ask nicely to borrow one at the register.

It's really conveniently located just off the freeway, and it's either new or really well-maintained. It's clean, bright, and overall well-stocked with a good selection of treats. The prices are the same as they are at every Holiday--more than the grocery store or a drugstore, but there are savings to be had if you buy multiples. Add in friendly service from cashier Annika, and I am a happy camper.

It is always clean, they always have what I've needed, and the people that work there are so kind and friendly. Sat 6/13/20: Chris was AWESOME! I tried looking for a drink and it wasn't there, he passed by and I asked him if they had it. He came back with one. I then asked if he minded if I had another. Without hesitation or looking annoyed/frustrated he went right back to the cooler and got it for me. It's nice not feeling like a burden in certain situations. It was a busy day and they had 3 people on the registers, Chris immediately went behind the counter to start helping out - I love seeing that! At this location I have yet to try their coffee or hot foods, but they look delicious and are on my list to try. Since COVID is still present in the area, they have little "6 ft away" stickers on the ground for places people can stand to maintain distance. Their "start here" line for the cash register can be a bit confusing as the divider to guide people to the registers is off to the side and most of the time I go in here the line is always in a different direction. Not a dealbreaker but just something I've noticed whenever I visit. All that matters is we all form some type of line and get the items we need! Visited this location recently and once again had Chris when I was checking out, he's very kind and friendly, greeting everyone that comes to him! I love that there are so many options from "make your own coffee" to hot goods on the rollers (hot dogs and the like) as well as sandwiches on the other side. The bakery section is always stocked with doughnuts and sweets, as well as their AMAZING muffins! Like most gas stations they have snacks, chips, all sorts of drinks, and misc items. This location is always packed/busy when I go but they are really efficient at keeping the lines of customers out the door quickly! Location: It is on the corner of Lake near the on ramp to 35. There are lots of trees, shrubs, and greenery that shield the building during the summer. It is located right near a strip of business that might be fun to check out depending on what you like!!

At the pump, I looked to see if there was a sticker saying you had to prepay (cash) before pumping. There was none. I lifted the nozzle, chose Pay Inside and the grade of gas I wanted. The screen said, "Waiting for Cashier Approval". I waited and waited and waited and waited. Suddenly a large African American man came around the corner of my truck and yelled, "What's going on over here?!!" I noted the screen said waiting for approval and I was waiting for that to happen. He yelled, "You have to put your card in the reader!" I told him I was paying in cash. He yelled, "You have to push "Pay Inside". I told him I already did that. Then he yelled, "You have to pay inside first before you can pump!!!" I asked why there wasn't a sticker on the pump to indicate that to the customer (as I've seen such stickers on places who do have that requirement). He again yelled, "There are no pumps in the country where you can pump before paying cash. You always have to pay first!!!" (Calm down already). So I went in to pay in cash first and he continued on and on and on about how there are no pumps in the United States where you can pump before paying and how stupid was I to think so! I told him there certainly are stations where you can pump first and then go inside and pay. He called me a liar and asked me to show him such a place. I told him about another Marathon station in NE Mpls on Johnson Street where I buy gas frequently. I pump first, then go in and pay. And there are quite a few other places where I buy gas that do the same. He called me a liar again and again claimed there are no such gas stations in the United States. So it appears this employee is grossly misinformed and would rather argue with a customer and call customers liars than admit he is wrong or at least could be mistaken. Oh well, it's not like have to ever buy gas at his place again and I won't. Why would anybody subsidize this behavior? To be clear, I have no problem with paying cash first before pumping gas. But every place I've previously encountered that requires this has had a sticker on the pump so you know what to do. Since this pump did not (and I've pumped-first, paid-after at other Marathon stations), it came as a surprise to me when Mr. Yelling Employee came barreling around my truck lambasting me with his incorrect information about how all the gas pumps in the entire United States work. To the manager of this place, Mr. Yelling Employee desperately needs some intense customer service training. Or just fire him. He was the one ringing up customers at about 12:55 pm on 5-3-2025. He reflects very poorly on your business. I can only image the type of encounters other customers have had with this individual.

Whether or not it helps throat remains to be seen but he certainly made me feel better that he cared.

First off I love Costco. I'm sharing a story here about the Costco Tire Center at the Maple Grove…read moreCostco in MN here. I purchased tires from MN Maple Grove Costco for my SUV a few years ago and I don't drive much. The second tire rotation I had done in 12/2025; As soon as I got my car back I noticed a vibration through my brake pedal every time I applied my brakes which wasn't there before the Costco service was done. Tried bringing it back in to inquire, but due to Xmas the warehouse was a madhouse so I gave up after scheduling appointment and waiting in line an unreasonable amount of time. So many people because Costco rocks, but no so for me with this tire rotation. I put up with this very concerning vibration in my braking until my next visit to my dealer for oil change and inspection. The inspection found the problem. The problem? 2 warped rotors. I find it hard to understand even 1 warped rotor by someone who should know their job before they ever touch your car, but 2 warped rotors?! That's amateur night. Even if I had waited the probably hour in line back in 12/2025 right after they did this damage to my car, they probably would have denied it anyway. I'm now out over 500$ to have these 2 rotors turned (something Costco doesn't do.) One of them actually tried to tell me that you can warp your rotors by driving through a puddle and that was before I even discovered that my rotors had been warped by these grease monkeys. It's like somebody was trying to cover their tracks before they were even discovered. That just left me totally disgusted. Like I said I love Costco, but I'm not going to give any positive feed back on something like this. If I could rate them a zero I would. A big fat zero. Sorry Costco you totally screwed up here. I thought I was saving money with WOW no cost tire balance and rotation, but now I have a $500 bill to pay for rotor repair. I didn't save a dime with Costco with this fubar.
