Saturday February 18th 3:00 p.m. Needed to use the restroom before shopping. Saw an employee go in. I waited 5 minutes... ... and another 5 minutes... Then hear videos being played in the stall. I asked the employee, "are you just sitting there watching videos?" He smugly replied, "yeah, I am" and turns up the volume. I go to a manager to complain, and I can't get him to even acknowledge my presence. I tried to tell him about the employee sitting in the bathroom just watching videos. He ignores me. No comment. Nothing. Straight out ignores me as if I was not there. When I go up the counter to make my purchases, he's behind the counter and won't make eye contact. On any other day, I would have nothing but praise for this store. I don't know the manager who ignored me, nor do I know the employee that was having his movie break. I don't know who, if anyone, was in charge. As a customer, I feel very disrespected by this treatment. I'm, however, so pleased that employees watching videos in the bathroom have a higher priority than customers. In any case, when a customer comes up to an employee, (let alone a manager) and has a complaint, be professional at least and have the common decency to not ignore the customer. I had come to expect more from Kwik Star. read more

This gas station will give you your stuff like any normal gas station but it comes with a cost. You will come out smelling like @$$. It's like someone switched your detergent with grease. read more

I was on my way home from work at about 11 o'clock on a Wednesday night. I needed milk and bread. Normally I visit the kwik star over on Nordic Drive. But tonight I thought I would stop here because it was more on my route home. When I walked in there was a lady and another man behind the counter. They were not helping anyone and when I walked in they just looked at me. They didn't say hi or knowledge me. Even though I made direct eye contact. I rounded the corner and the food-service employee was talking with a customer. He looked at me moved out of my way but no hi smile or acknowledgement. I grab my milk and a loaf of bread and pass by the food-service employee a couple more times. Still nothing. When I walked up to the counter the two employees behind the counter were so busy talking to each other I wasn't sure which one who was going to help me. So I finally just leave my stuff up on one counter and hope that she would help me. She then smiled at me and asked me if I found everything okay. But then turned to the other employee and continue to have conversation about another customer who was in earlier. I didn't feel appreciated. But I went say that they were rude or unfriendly. But the experience could've been a whole lot better. I got the convenience out of the convenient store. Just not the friendly smile but I'm used to getting at the kwik stae up on Nordic. Next time I think I'll just go the mile or so out of my way and get better service. Alright so tonight I updated my review from a two star to a three star. All the credit goes to Traci. When I entered tonight the gentleman behind the counter looked at me and almost purposefully avoided eye contact with me to not have to say anything or even a knowledge or smile at me. I picked up the items I needed and headed up to the counter where Tracy graciously offered to open up her counter to check me out. She provided engaging small talk about our busy days and about the snacks I was purchasing. She was going to be off in 10 minutes but she was still eager to take care of me. If not for her I would have left my review at a two star. If I would've been egg knowledge when I had come in and even when I tried to make eye contact with the gentleman he still avoided me I could have probably gotten it up to a four star just because of Tracy. read more

Kwik Star - the front of the restaurant at night - Convenience Stores Near Me - Cedar Falls, Iowa

I don't plan on making it a habit to review larger chains and corporations but this particular gas station has a special place in my heart. Myself and my group of friends used to live and hang out directly across the street from Kwik Star, where Jimmy John's is now located. We would all just hang out on the sidewalk and listen to music, skateboard, and be stupid. During this time I lived off of white bread, milk, cereal, ramen noodles, and donuts from that place. Not the healthiest period of my life, but very convenient and incredibly fun. The people that worked the night shift there were always really cool and we often had long conversations with them about random things. Every now and then I would go and buy a block of raw cookie dough, a container of milk, and proceed to microwave that cookie dough until it was about half way cooked and then I would pour the milk all over it and eat it with a spoon. It was awesome and it gave me the worst stomach ache every time I did it. As far as food goes Kwik Star sells ready-to-eat burgers, pizza, breadsticks, soup, hot dogs, as well as a decent selection of coffee drinks and donuts. They also have a cooler with fruit, salads, and sandwiches, juice, and milk in a bag. Pretty impressive for a gas station. I miss the crap out of this place. read more

good kwik star i always come here bc its so close to my house and generally they are always nice, well stocked and clean, but the experiences me and my roomates have had at this kwik star lately have been really negative. There's an older man who works there who is ALWAYS mean to us. He will be able to have a normal, kind conversation with any male customer he checks out but EVERY TIME me and my female friends have had to be checked out by him he goes stone cold, won't even look at us, not a word to us besides "receipt?" and overall being really rude. like literally wont even say hello. just ignores us! feels so weirdly mysoginistic or something... so weird. i now go out of my way to go somewhere else if i need to actually talk to someone at night bc he works night shifts usually. he even gives me dirty looks while i check out for no reason... like dude i just want to put gas in my car lol. why so mean? don't know his name bc he hardly ever wears a tag but tall, older white man with short grey hair and an ATTIUDE ISSUE! read more

I really like how this gas station has an incredible amount of snacks, beer, fruit, and hot food! I have never had any of their hot food ( I don't eat gas station food) so I can't comment on that but from what my friends have told me it is really good! They always have a vast selection of fresh doughnuts, bakery items, hot dogs, soup, and all of the beverages you could imagine. This gas station is right by my apartment so I find myself going here multiple times a day usually. Every time I go in I am greeted right away and the service is tremendous. The gas priced are some of the cheapest in the area too. They accept bottle and can redemptions for recycling, which is convenient. Overall, everything a good gas station experience should be! read more

Best gas station. Judge-free environment, friendly employees, and great prices. Highly recommend one of their Peanut Butter Crispy treats.
