Out of the 8 pumps, 3 were inoperable. Their practices here are very shady in gas prices. I've been there where I literally see the prices changing on the electronic board. Like really? The attendant is super dee duper(in my grandson's voice) rude. If you go inside, there's a sign at the window that you can't pay with cash app. They are afraid someone will beat them... get a load of that! If you ever need to stop there, always scan the lot and keep your eyes open. No menu food items are sold here, just snacks.

Friday nights seem to be the young kids hangout spot. There are cars and kids everywhere; even blocking the gas pumps. I usually get the four piece dark chicken; and sometimes add the soft pretzel if it's not too late (low carbs at night). The chicken was seasoned well and had the right amount of crunch. The potato wedge was a bit soft. I put it in my air fryer for 10 minutes to make it crispy. The workers at the hot bar are awesome. If there is an issue, they'll let you know. They have allowed substitution when they were out of what I ordered. The inside of the store is kept neat. I also want to highlight that Royal Farms has the lowest gas in the area. I was surprised to discover that their gas was 20 cent per gallon less than other nearby gas stations. I will now plan my monthly visit to include my tank fill up too.

After bringing home an order of wings this morning, I discovered a very long strand of hair that appeared to have been fried into one of the wings. I promptly contacted the store and spoke with the manager. He offered a sincere apology and assured me that the matter would be appropriately addressed, including reinforcing food-preparation and handling standards with the staff. Although I appreciate his professionalism and willingness to resolve the issue, finding hair in prepared food is unacceptable and completely ruined my meal. Because of this experience, I must say this has ruined my experience, moving forward.

However, the 2nd W is from 7/4/25 as a recent experience, I want to review too. Been to this Wawa several times since living in Russett the past 5 years. I used to go to Wawa at a former company I was with in Halethorpe as it was super close to my office, and the sandwiches were delicious. Like Halethorpe, the sandwiches called "Hoagies" are delicious. You order on the screen and can customize your hoagie how you want and add whatever other items. I've gone in there for just a customized iced coffee drink, which are delicious too, with seasonal flavors like peppermint & pumpkin spice. As I'm writing this review in July, I could really go for some Christmas in July with peppermint! Staff is relatively efficient & cordial. There's been a couple of times it took a while, but that was more that I was going at a peak time. My girlfriend & I went here one time on Saturday, August 3, 2024 before a movie. We both enjoyed our sandwiches. My biggest issue with Wawa is that there is no seating, and that's what makes me often not choose Wawa. We didn't mind the heat wave and were willing to eat outside, but there's no comfortable area to sit on the ground. So, we dealt with eating in the car like animals potentially making a mess in the car (at least with the AC running, but wasting gas). In spite of a couple of negatives, overall a positive experience and will return as it's sometimes a convenient & delicious option.

PLEASE BEWARE***I highly recommend that you do not take your automobile to the Montpelier Repair…read moreService  at the Shell gas station located at 12601 Laurel Bowie Rd. Laurel MD. 20708 for any type of repair service. And here is why.  On May 11th 2022, I bought my car in because my windshield wiper stopped working.  I explained to Mr. Alex Smith the only mechanic on staff, that my windshield wiper would randomly stop working  but this time it appeared to stop for good.  He quickly let me know that it would be a $90 charge for him to diagnose the problem. I said that's fine because I need to get to the bottom of this it is a safety issue  And that I use my vehicle for work and I am currently transporting my granddaughter to school in the mornings so it needs to be fixed.  After looking at my vehicle Alex Smith informed me that I needed to buy what he was calling a "body modular  system"   And the part would cost $540 and can only be ordered through the dealer. And the total repair cost would be $753 this includes parts and labor.  And that I would have to put up a $400 deposit before he would order the part. When I asked Mr. Alex  what is the actual name of the part so that I can research it because he was calling it a "body modular system" he began to get really agitated  and nasty.  After unsuccessfully getting the actual name or part number from Alex Smith for my research.  I went ahead and gave the cashier the $400 deposit so that he could go ahead and order this part. I needed my car fixed.  The next day after Mr. Alex received the part and installed it he called me to let me know that the part was not the problem and at this point he still didn't know what exactly was wrong with the  windshield wiper.  But he would put everything back together so that I can pick up the car so that I can transport my granddaughter in the morning and drop the car back off the next day. Roughly an hour later Mr. Alex  called me with good news. He said, "Mr. Holeman while putting your car back together I noticed that your relay was sticking and I cleaned it off a little and now it is working fine". I said "Great how much did I owe him since we didn't need that $540 part and in fact no parts where needed?"  This is when Mr. Alex Smith informed me that the cost would still be $753 that I had already agreed on with this previous diagnosis of this $540 part because of the amount of time he invested in working on the vehicle.   I complained adamantly, but to no avail they would not release my car until I gave them the remaining $353. Correction because of the unclear scribble on the ticket the cashier made it a $348 balance.  The next morning while driving my granddaughter to school in the rain guess what? You guessed it the windshield wipers stop working again. I was able to make it to her school and back to the Montpelier Shell service station  where  Mr. Alex had supposedly fixed my car. I complained to the head manager  and he promised me that Mr. Alex would have to fix it with no additional cost. When Mr. Alex arrived he opened the hood took a screwdriver and poked at the the relay and said there it's working. I said that's not a satisfactory repair we need to replace that part and your manager said that you would have to fix it with no additional cost. Mr. Alex absolutely refuse to do anymore to the car without more money out of my pocket.  Since leaving the dealership twice so far I've had to in the rain lift my hood and take something and poke on this part that I saw Mr. Alex poke  to get my wipers to start working again. I feel that I've been cheated out of $540 for a part that after the fact he tells me is a non refundable part.  Had I refundable I received that information up front perhaps I would have gotten a second opinion at the least. Who has a customer buy a $540 non refundable part unless they're absolutely certain that it's needed.  On a previous occasion Mr. Alex Smith mentioned to me that he could get my car to pass a Maryland state  safety inspection "If you know what I mean" If this guy (Alex Smith) is really a licensed mechanic he treats it like it's a license to steal!*****PLEASE BEWARE!

Not every…read moreAmerican business I'm giving a good 4 or 5 stars to, but I appreciate the 7-Eleven brand, as it's convenient. My local 7-Eleven is a mixed bag. In recent times, it's been my most common gas station I go to as with my 7 cents off, it's generally cheaper than the BP across the street or any of the other stations in Maryland City. Gas pumps work well. It's rare I ever buy anything in there. I bought Powerball tickets a couple of times and various food items. Customer service is so so. Sometimes they are nice, but usually almost no nice interaction, just pay & go. I did the $3.14 Pi day pizza deal a couple of times. Pizza was pretty good, but kind of made me a bit sick with all the weird ingredients in there. Only a once a year event for me. Often times, I notice vagrants hanging around. One time one came up to me at the gas pump to ask for money. This seems to be common at 7-Eleven at many locations. Overall, 7-Eleven has some good deals on gas and a mix of good & bad, but some better options for convenience store food options like my nearby Royal Farms, or Wawa in Hanover or over locations in AA & neighboring counties.
