  Didn't buy gas or anything but had to see America's oldest gas station. It's a really cool place because of how different it is. No made to order food, no pre made food, and no soda fountain. Just an old building with a few snacks and drinks. Amazing how gas stations have changed and this little gem is proof. A worker took us inside and gave us a detailed history of the building and showed some of the old stuff around the store and gave us some wooden coins, flyers, and a cards. This is truly a one of a kind experience.

  Love this full service station in a pump it yourself world. The attendants are professional, friendly, and efficient. Two or three attendants will jump in to get your front and rear windows washed while yet a different person pumps your gas. In the past, I've also received help adding air to my tires or checking my oil. Best of all, somehow they still maintain competitive pricing with nearby convenience stores. I go out of my way to patronize this business to keep it operating, and if you value having a competitive full service option in town, then you should too.

  Old fashioned gas station, full service, wash the car's windshield, check air in the tires and so on. Also great for filling your propane bbq tank.

  Ran out of oil on a Friday and they wouldn't deliver oil till Monday even after I explained I had a two week old baby. Bad thing is we were customers for 13 years. I called Barber oil to see if they would deliver and they did within 2 hours so we switched.

  They didnt deliver quickly when a cold snap came, they didn't offer emergency delivery, and when they offered a discount for pay within 10 days, they didnt honor my quick pay because I got the bill late during the Christmas holiday - I got the bill the day before Christmas - so my payment arrived late. The manager was NOT understanding that 10 days with two weekends and one major holiday and slow mail season. so I had to pay the extra finance charge.
  
  If you call around, I think all of the oil suppliers will match their competitors in price.
