July 18, 2026 OVERVIEW; Although I'm a huge Love's fan, basically I'm praising the Tulare location over the one near Bakersfield, due to following: PROS: The Tulare parking lot is much bigger as compared to the Bakersfield location. So if you want to park your car, walk your dog, or just rest in the parking lot for awhile, this is where you want to stop. Not as busy as other locations. (Good for the customer, but maybe not so good for the proprietor.) Easy on-off access to the Hwy. 99, Northbound or Southbound. Lots of bathroom stalls. Like all Love's locations, this place is stocked with whatever you need. CONCLUSION: If you're making a run on Hwy. 99 between Sacramento & Bakersfield, and you have the choice between stopping at either Tulare or Bakersfield, take Tulare ... read more

Love's Travel Stop - This is the place !! - Gas Stations Near Me - Tulare, California

I love these big trucker stations. They have all of the accommodations you could want including showers, snacks, plenty of pumps, etc. they are very convenient! Great service, clean restrooms, etc. read more

I like stopping in at Love's Travel Stops to check them out! I joined their rewards program earlier this year, but it is something I should have done long ago! They offer discounts and freebies in their App. We came here over Thanksgiving Day through that weekend. They were giving away one bottle of Accelerate Hydration per day. We happened to be in the area three days on our trip and was able to try their three flavors. That deal is over. For Dec., it is a BOGO Free. Another benefit to joining their rewards program is receiving 10¢ discount on gas. They also offer a discount of 25¢ on Auto Diesel. The store is chock full of merchandise including souvenirs! The restroom was clean. In this Travel Stop is a Subway & McDonald's. The store clerks were pleasant about helping me redeem the first free item through the app. After that, I was able to open the app and have the barcode ready. I will come back the next time I am passing through Tulare! And hopefully there will be a good "deal" in the App, too! read more

Stopped here to get gas and wait out the fog. The gas is very reasonable priced for California (at home, it's about twenty cents cheaper, so this is really good), all the pumps work, and the exterior was very clean with no debris. Inside, the bathrooms and interior are also clean, and everything is easily accessible. I had trouble finding the kombucha, but James was so helpful and fun to speak to. Kimberly and Melissa at the register were also a hoot, and everyone here made me smile. Nice selection as well as convenient restaurant options (Subway and McDonald's side by side). We stopped by both since McDonald's had nothing to suit my dietary needs, and both were a good experience. read more

Very convenient and useful stop in Tulare along the 99 freeway. It's clean and bright inside, with both a McDonalds and a Subway. Both fast food places look newer and relatively spacious too. Plenty of convenient parking in front. read more

A great place to go when you're towing a boat, lots of space to maneuver around. I appreciate that especially because I am new to towing and coming here made it easy. read more

I love (pun intended) to stop here for gas, snacks or potty breaks. I especially love the fact that they have a place for our pets to use the potty too! As far as the food, nothing special but at least they have tons to choose from. Their bathrooms are always clean, their staff is always nice and the gas price is very competitive compared to other options along the road. We try to plan our trips around their locations so that we know that both us and the pups can stop to pee. I saw some negative comments about their dog park not being clean enough but honestly, that has more to do with crappy pet owners than the facility itself. I rather they first focus on keeping the hooman bathrooms clean and then when they have time clean out their do area. After all, pet owners should not be lazy and should pick up after themselves. read more

Also food and CB radio stuff. This is the first time I've seen CB radio stuff out for sale anywhere since my local radio shop closed down, so that's a plus. read more

Love that this Pilot has a special pump for Moterhome or RVs just pull thru. We stopped here twice first time the restrooms where decent we picked up Taco Bell the gentleman was nice (little heavy man) I like how they make your food right in front of you. However, the second time passing thru we grabbed some Taco Bell but this time the lady at the reg. was changing the reg tape seemed to be in a hurry a young man helped prepare the food she had taken the potatoes behind the food line which i believe to heat them in the microwave they where so hot I couldn't hold the bowl let alone eat them, waste of money. We all know what happens to microwave cheese-(gross). The restrooms where awful they stunk like pee. The floors were very dirty you can defiantly tell they hadn't been mopped in a while. Parking lot was clean, the store was clean and stocked. read more

Normally I love Love's. I have visited dozens in my travels and they are typically a great place to stop. I was disappointed in this location however. They had a "Dog Park" which was nice so I could let my pup out but it was quite small and dirty. They also have signs posted everywhere that they will tow your vehicle if you are there more than an hour, which seems reasonable if you need to grab some items, eat, let your dog out, and maybe actually take a rest. The customer service and cleanliness was also lacking. I still recommend this company, but if you are on the road, maybe pass this one by and stop that the next one. read more

We stopped at your facility yesterday. Fuel for our vehicle. Use your pet area. Your pet area was totally disgusting. Full of dog poop. Broken sprinkler valve which caused flooding. Broken glass in another area. I couldn't even walk my dogs in your doggie area. I used many Loves. This was the worst. read more

October 28th, 2023 How about that? I didn't even notice I had been here before until I went to write my review and it said, "update review" Well..... kudos, again, to this and ALL Love's travel stop locations. They are wonderful for bathroom relief, fuel, snacks, water, ....I apparently bought a nail clipper on this visit. If you're in the area, make a stop for all your road trip needs! Thanks for reading! read more

5 star review! for the truck care center although I am a standard auto driver. I was parked in their parking lot about a week ago. Long story short, vehicle battery died and I needed a jump start. I was thinking to make a purchase via target or Walmart and have someone deliver a portable battery starter to avoid having to ask another driver to assist in jump start the old fashioned way. The order was taking too long so and the female that accepted the request to shop for item / deliver it, said that she had to shop for a much larger quantity order at the same time as my single item request. I told her it is reasonable to assume that means this larger quantity order will also be prioritized in terms of completion (delivery). As a result she dropped my very simple order and it was further pushed back on delivery eta. I then went inside the store to purchase old fashioned jumper cables with the intent of sprinkling some of my game (you know... some of that stuff you just can't teach) on a driver pumping fuel to come assist in the process. I noticed that they had cables in the back area where the commercial drivers enter, I picked up a small box approximately $29.99. The cashier told me they had other set in the front area that was reasonably less than that option, approximately $22.99. As I was speaking to him, I mentioned that I was going to have to run some of this G-A-M-E on a person in the parking lot to see if they will help jump start my vehicle. He then said, oh you need a jump start?! Let me call someone. He made a call to another employee and canceled the transaction. He told me to just wait for the "LOVES" truck to come to the front of the store. A few second later I see the truck and thanked the gentleman at the cashier as I walked out the store. I then waved at the driver (Adrian) in the truck and he followed me to my vehicle. Within a few minutes, my vehicle was good to go! Thank you again LOVES. I appreciate the assistance in helping me jump start my vehicle. [As I departed from the premises.. I thought to myself, I highly doubt that I would have received the same treatment across the street! to say the least! ] 3 stars (solely based on the shower facilities.) 4 star review (overall amenities at this location.) read more

I really liked the Dog Park it was nice being able to get gas and then also taking my dogs to go to the bathroom read more

Love's Travel Stop - Good size dog park - Gas Stations Near Me - Tulare, California

This a very good location to take a travel rest. The gas prices were decent, they have lots of snacks, clean restrooms and we liked the Subway sandwich shop inside. This will be our "go-to" stop from now on. read more

There are many parking spaces where you can park to get some rest. Parking lot is well lit but not too bright where you can't take a snooze. The bathrooms are quite clean. Gas prices are reasonable. Gas prices are updated in GasBuddy so you know how much per gallon before stopping at the gas station. We bought some Haagen-Dazs ice cream bars. It was on sale. Your cashier seemed friendly. read more

Traveling between Bakersfield and Visalia and then home to Twncho Cucamonga for 9 months, I planned when I would fill up around this place. Time and again they had the cheapest gas prices around, definitely cheaper than in bakersfield or visalia or tulare. For example gas prices were $5.59 when other places were charging +$6.29 per gallon. This place is rather large and well thought out. The big rigs are all in the back, with their own entrance. Allowing the passenger cars and vehicles to fill up and use the facility with no issues. They have multiple fill up stations, never in my 9 months of filling up did I have to wait for a gas pump to open up. They even have the long and short squeegies you can use. Cuz one thing that's more annoying than cleaning your windows with a squeeze is leaving those squeegee marks in the middle of the front windshield. Always in good repair too. The amenities are nice. They have a connected micdonalds and subway attached to them. But they also have the hot foods, like taquitoes, chip and dip, coffees, etc. They have lots of rows for snacws and junk food. As well as the entire back wall eith drinks (alcohol, liquor, energy drinks, soda and water). They even sell random items, hats, close, sunglasses and suvinour items. Those who work here are really nice. Smiling, saying greetings just being overall friendly. Oh and they are 24 hours just in case your driving thru there in the middle of the night, like I did once. Glad they were open at 2am!! Bathroom facilities are adequate. Sometimes it's slightly dirty and smelly, but for the most part it's clean and easy to use. Always stocked. They even have a showering area, and will call you when you bay is open. In the 9 months I probably came here over 30 times. And each occasion went off without a hitch. Either getting some snacks, some energy drinks, using their bathrooms to filling up on gas to eating some food, it was always a nice and pleasant experience. read more

always a fun stop. They have lots of neat stuff you cannot find anywhere else. Its kind of like a radio shack and 7 Eleven and if you need a shower they have that covered also! read more

Poorly maintained. Disorganized! Usually not bad. But today they pissed me off! Let my shower go to the wrong customer. read more

Went to refill my RV propane tanks. I went inside and requested to refill. They said they'd have someone out in just a few minutes. After 30 minutes of waiting patiently, I went back in and told them I was still waiting. They said they didn't have time to refill me. After 30 friegan minutes! I went across the street to Pilot and they had me refilled and on my way within 10 minutes. I will never ever go to loves. Never again! read more

Always a convenient place for gas and quick food! Also love that it literally off and on the freeway entrance!

I like this stop! It was clean and organized. I was so glad that the bathrooms were clean. The staff were polite and greeted me when I came in. I like that there was a subway and mcdonalds. Even the staff at the register at mcdonalds was nice. The gas was also cheap! It was a great experience. read more

We always look forward to stopping at a clean friendly customer service oriented truck stop to get food , refreshments, and fuel for my tow truck. Love's checks all the boxes. Thank you and keep up the good work. read more

Made a pit stop here coming from the SCV up to northern California, and I'm glad that I did. This travel stop is solid! Great coffee and beverage station and really nice restrooms. Lots of snacks for purchase and a little electronics section, they seem to have everything you could ever need while on the road. Picked up a small coffee and a sandwich at the connected Subway and was on my way. Thank you Love's! read more

This location is always busy, but it is on a perfect location. Easy access of the 99 north and southbound. They keep it clean, good gas prices, and plenty of parking. They also always have plenty of snacks and warm food to choose from. The cashiers are always friendly and helpful. There is also a Subway and McDonald's connected to it. Great pit stop. read more

Love's Travel Stop - Excellent coffee selection! - Gas Stations Near Me - Tulare, California

It's a gas station! It's a convenience store! It's a truck stop! It's... Love's! I love to stop at Love's because I know their gas prices are usually reasonable, the convenience stores are well stocked with a variety of items, the prices aren't jacked up too high, and there are usually at least one or two fast food options so I can take care of all my needs in one stop. The Ladies restroom was very clean and had both hooks on the back of the stall doors for coats and fold down shelves on which to place your purse so it doesn't sit on a dirty floor. unfortunately, first stall I entered did not have any toilet paper in spite of the fact the dispensers held two huge rolls. Two out of three soap dispensers were completely empty, too, but at least they had paper towels and a Koala Kare changing station. The Convenience store includes all the basic food and beverage options you expect plus a few extras like the option of adding flavor shots to your sodas for free at the fountain. They also carry a number of items designed to cater to truckers such as t-shirts, leather jackets, audiobooks by best selling authors, DVDs, Music CDs, small electronic items, showers, and so much more. There are two fast food options: Subway and McDonalds. Both have flat screen televisions; Subway's was turned off and the one in.McDonalds was showing a very IMHO inappropriate movie (NSFW). There is dimly lit game room with video game machines entered from the Subway. A great place to get everything you need, but still get in and out quickly. read more

The cleanliness in the showers is not acceptable. The toilet seat was still dirty and had an odor in my shower room itself.

Literally, clean and everyone was very nice, they all said hi, they pride themselves in cleaning, because this place was beyond clean and that made me so happy. Thank you all for keeping this beautiful place clean and the rest rooms. Will definitely be back soon. read more

I can't believe I would be giving a gas station such a high rating, but I usually stop here when I am visiting family in San Francisco. The restrooms are actually quite clean (ladies') and adequately stocked with the essentials. And it is nice that there are quite a few stalls here so wait time for a toilet is less than other places. Anyways, Love's reminds me of 7-11 and ARCO's AMPM stores because they sell coffee, baked goods and all the usual suspects. They also have other prepacked snack goods and also random souvenirs of the kind sold here as well (who wouldn't need a leopard print cow boy hat? Or that nice throw rug that says "California" on top of it in black letters). What is really great about this place is that there is also a 24 hour Subway & McDonald's (yay free wifi) here as well in case you wanted to pick up lunch and/ or dinner before you head out (or a cup of coffee to keep you wake for the rest of your drive). Parking is kind of odd here, as there parking near the McDonald's and then around the perimeter of the parking lot. There is also plenty of gas pumps here, but I never buy gas here (I only prefer to use the name brand stuff that I am familiar with to put in my vehicle, especially since it hauls some precious cargo... meaning myself and my family and my cute little dogs). Overall, a perfect place to stop to use the restroom and perhaps grab a bite to eat and stretch the ol' legs. Oh and in case you are traveling with your 4 legged furry friends, there are some grassy areas for them to relieve themselves (sometimes there are dogs that just can't use the restroom unless there is grass, so thought that would be something worth mentioning to fellow pet parents). read more

While the price for diesel wasn't bad, I got to/from Tehachapi with about a quarter of a tank remaining. We stopped here for drinks and snacks. The prices weren't bad, though the chaos was, but paying at the register was okay. Didn't use the restroom but pretty much every Love's location I've tried across the country needs cleanup in the restroom. read more

Was refreshing to be greeted as I entered this Love's truck stop! And their bathrooms were decent and clean and there was soap and paper towels available for use! There was even hand sanitizer for everyone to use! Their hot foods were fresh and presented well! They also had a lot of water choices/varieties. I wanted to buy everything in the store! Thank you for your hard work! It shows! read more

I find myself coming to this Love's again and again. The gas prices are ~usually~ the lowest (Regular) fuel prices along CA-99 south of Fresno. Exit 85 just south of Tulare. I'm usually greeted by the friendly cashiers upon entering and can't help but feel comfortable here! This is a popular stop for Truckers, and they have their own fueling station on the other side. Inside, you can buy anything from Food and Drink, to Car Accessories, to DVD's and stuffed animals! The variety can be somewhat overwhelming and cause you to stay browsing longer than you would have wanted. All products have usually been well stocked when I have frequented this Love's. The bathrooms, for those interested, seem to be well taken care of. Apart from some minor permanent damage some kids will do (Scratching graffiti here and there) it is very well kept, and SUPER clean! I can't help but wonder if guys aren't going in here and getting all prettied up with the way it smells. Overall, a nice place for fuel and services. If you're very hungry, connected to Love's is a Subway and Mc Donald's...so this is usually a nice place to stop 'n go if you're on the road. :) read more
