Nice travel center! Overflow of parking for cars and trucks. Iron Skillet for food. Went to Blue Beacon Truck Wash. There was a line, but it moved quickly. They also wash regular vehicles. "Be a Beacon of light so others can find their way. Safe and happy travels".

7am on a Friday and restaurant not open! Hot breakfast food in the store was disgusting! Yes, I tried it. The bathroom and showers were good. Another truckstop that has diminished services to drivers because we do not matter!

My wife and I stopped in to grab a bite to eat. She wanted their smash burger. Funny thing is that the patties would have been better suited on a slider bun. We called the waitress over and showed her, and asked it this the way this ( 2 pattied burger as show in the picture ) is supposed to look. It literally took both of the patties to cover the bottom bun. In the picture on the menu it has nice size burger patties on the 3 shown burgers. And these are listed as burgers not sliders. But the size was crazy. And these burgers are like $14.00 . Nope not gonna happen. I know that prices have gone crazy. But for 2 bites of a patty and it is gone. This is totally crazy. Never again. Would have gotten fuller from a bag of chips. And a heck of a lot cheaper.Update: went in to shower later and was told the shower was ready for us and clean. Well there was poop all over the handicap seat and even some on the walls.

Petro Travel Center is an absolute must-stop on any road trip! Their skillet-cooked meals are the stuff of legends - delicious, hearty, and cooked to perfection. Every time I dine here, I'm blown away by the quality and flavor of the food. The staff are friendly, the atmosphere is inviting, and the convenience of the location makes it a no-brainer for travelers. Whether you're craving a hearty breakfast, a satisfying lunch, or a filling dinner, Petro has you covered. It's become a favorite stop for me and my fellow travelers, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Five stars for Petro Travel Center - they never disappoint!

Very impressed with this Petro. I've never had a issue at this place. Great friendly informative service from the techs I've met. It's a few night shift guys that really realy get busy meaning they provide outstanding service. I know me personally besides when I have to go to the dealership I will always make my way back to this Petro for work if i can. I really appreciate these techs because like we all know not all techs can be worth a damn. Night Shift rules!!!! No disrespect to day shift.

They closed the restaurant at 630pm because the cook was behind. There were 8 people seated. I would like to know who made this ridiculous decision. There were only 4 of us waiting to get in. I’ve been on the road since 6am with only water and crackers all day. If you can’t handle online orders then stop the service and keep the restaurant open!! I’ll be contacting the General Manager via LinkedIn tomorrow when I get home. We’ll see if she cares or not. If not I’ll get in touch with corporate.

So I’m at the fuel island trying to get something to eat, the girls are just ignoring me, so I ask, is someone going to take my order, the lady at the register had a cow getting mad saying “I don’t know what you doing there” the other lady just walked to the back, I just left.. some pretty bad attitudes, they don’t need to be working back here seems they don’t want to be here anyway..

Full service truck stop. Very clean overall. Showers rooms were very nice....no issues at all. Several washers and dryers, barber shop (limited hours), massive parking area, workout room, etc.....couldn't ask for more.

If you are looking for The Irom Skillet of yore, keep looking.This one is closed more often then it is open. They can't seem to employ any cooks that want to work.Petro Corprate, close the damned thing and put in fast food. At least that way we can actually get food rather then go hungry.

It's clean secure and had inexpensive gas. What more could you want from a travel center? (No decaf or unsweetened tea though)

The store was clean. Decorated like home. Couldn’t find fault with the store itself. When I went to purchase an item, the cashier couldn’t get it to ring up. It was a marginally high priced item. However, she refused to sell it to me simply because she couldn’t get the scan code to work. The other cashier was telling customers she was the one overwhelmed with the customers. I guess some more training is in order. That’s ok I’ll go somewhere else and purchase it. If it doesn’t ring up then take it off the shelf. I tried to call the manger, and they were unavailable.

Used to love stopping here in our monthly travels due to the cleanliness of the store and restrooms, the hot fresh coffee, and the overall peace that you just couldn't get at all of the other busy busy places. BUT let me tell you...since Bucees has opened down the road??? Petro is a nightmare! As of last night's final stop (and it will be a long time before we try again), the restrooms stay nasty, the coffee is always out or hours old, drink coolers are not working properly, the restaurant has its gate closed at all kinds of weird hours for no reasons...the list goes on and on. By far no longer our go-to, for sure. And it's a shame because some of us like to avoid the chaos like what Bucees has become. Guess we'll have to join the masses and give the Beaver a shot...seems no one else cares if we stop by so why not go where they evidently care that we do.

Parking is good. 5 stars. Iron Skillet, 2 stars. Club sandwich-cold toast. How is TOAST cold? Meat on the club was ICE cold! I asked for mayo on the side and glad I did-it was rancid!!! At least the fries were hot. $22.00 for a meal that was barely edible. Now I know why I bring my own food on the road. I just wanted to get out of the truck for a bit. Next time I’ll just bring my own food inside and eat.

Lots of parking. Showers aren't the best but they'll do the job.

Well as far as a truck stop this isn’t one. They care less about truckers and more about the traveling cars. The restaurant opens at 8am and closes I think at 10pm a trucker get going earlier than 8am specially a oversized load. The bathrooms smell like a stock yard and the parking lot is rougher than the highway. It’s good that they are selling out. $20.00 for breakfast and coffee +tip

Preparing to stop with limited time left on my clock as a professional driver leaves little to no room for error when it come to parking.I use the truckers app to see where there is parking available ahead so I am not one of the other drivers stuck out on the roadside.The trucker app showing this Petro had only paid parking left.So I pre-paid five hours before I arrived to find that more than 3/4 of the lot was empty and the only 4 paid spots were full and I was the only person who paid at this place.I was told by Shannon that the store cannot go out and force someone to move.I have found this to be true also at Pilots and Flying J's.So my advice is, do not ever pay for so called paid parking again.I did not get reimbursed either.

Had one of the nicest and cleanest bathroom stops I’ve ever seen on the road. And I’ve driven to Alaska so trust me, I’ve seen road bathrooms and this was so nice I had to show the world by writing this review which on its own is pretty weird. THATS HOW NICE IT WAS.

I like it here. Clean and quiet. I haven't noticed any reserved parking here. That's a plus. The shower was clean. The laundry room was clean, and the machines looked new. I had dinner and breakfast here. Dinner was good. Breakfast, however, is not so good. The food wasn't cooked it was burned. I thought maybe it was just mine. So I looked around and noticed 4 plates in my view, they were also burned also, What's with all the grease? My plate was soaked. Do all iron skillets ( the few that are left) fry their hash browns? Anyway I didn't complain or ask for a new plate of food since this is the way the cook was taught. The waitresses were great. Just hope this gets to cooperate. Maybe they can train the cooks.

Location wise and ease to the 95 it was awesome and the folks working were very nice so to stop and get gas, easy and cheap.The inside though, another story. The variety of snacks and food to buy was very small and kinda blah. The men's room was bad. In need of a remodel and God it was gross. My wife said the ladies room seemed fine though.It needs a remodel and if the gas prize matched the giant road sign they may get more people especially with buc ees just a couple miles before/after.

The pumps are always out of paper and are the slowest pumps to pump gas takes 20mins to fill up! Need to get this fixed!

Stopped for gas and restroom break. What a wonderful, clean, uncrowded, and relaxed stop. Will plan to try the Iron Skillet next time since it looked very good.

Food over cooked. Maybe was their first day or something service laking attention to any follow up after food brought to counter. Over all disappointment it was better the last time I tried it here but not by much place seems to be going down hill like alot of other truckstop restaurants nowadays. Sad for all of guys out here that remember when our places had the best food and service

I'm really getting tired of seeing Petro and TA iron skillet and country pride restaurant closed when it clearly says 24hrs EVERYWHERE! Instead of changing the road signs out let's post maintenance signs at the entrance. This sux being in a rental and running the night lanes all to avoid the steering wheel,middle lane,dont look out the mirror guys that someone give them a CDL because they went to a truck driving school.
