QuikTrip

If you don’t have to get gas in this rough little corner of the earth, don’t. But if you need gas, go here. Compared to other gas stations in the area, it is well lit, open, and they have security. I’m giving 4 stars based on the condition of the gas station and convenience store for the area, not because I am suggesting that you drive across town to go here.

Normal Quick trip. Not sure why there are at least 2 security officers there all the time.

All Quiktrip’s are pretty much the same, this one is closest to my house so it is the one I frequent the most. If the neighborHOOD has an epicenter this is it. This place is packed at all times of the day. I would normally give Quiktrip in most other parts of the city a 4 or even 5 star review, but this one is different. The staff is usually rude, you can never just pull up to a pump (always a wait), and the fountain drink area is always a mess.
Pros: Always armed police officers at the door, they keep their grass really green and trimmed, free air for your tires.
Cons Everywhere
Bottom line: If you want to see people screaming at their babies, get panhandled on your way in or out, and general mass chaos, pop in, trust me it’s way better than the 7 – 11 down the street.
