Pilot Travel Center

Bunch of scam artists at this location. They sell expired food and they charge way more for the PJ Fresh food than anywhere else. I guess since it’s the only food in this location besides Cinnabon they can, but that’s highway robbery. $ 5.49 for a four inch sub with nothing but a couple slices of meat and a slice of cheese? No thank you, I’ll take my money to Subway and pay 51 cents more for a six inch with veggies, chips, and a drink.

I’m giving this gas station four stars because it is clean and well-​lit. On our frequent drives from Austin to Memphis, that’s all I can ask for.

I have to say that as far as pit stops go, Pilot truck stops are typically the best. I’m not a trucker so I haven’t enjoyed the use of their showers and some other amenities, but they are clean and usually have a large variety of delicious treats. Enter Cinnabon.
The last time I had Cinnabon before I found them at a Pilot store only a few months ago was probably about twenty years ago at the Mall of America. I used to (and still do) daydream about their humongous cinnamon rolls. I know they don’t use plain old cinnamon off the shelf, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it is a special blend, but last night I thought I detected Saigon cinnamon. It is more robust than I typically encounter and I found the taste was exceedingly vivid. You take in the cinnamon with multiple senses and you feel as if you are trapped in a Tom Robbins novel. «Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates» has a negative spin on vivid, but I think you get the picture. Cinnabon adds nuance to your life that can leave you forever changed.

I don’t understand how there are so many managers standing around talking and only one cashier. Every time i come in there is always a line! I could understand it being busy but there should be no reason managers are standing around and not trying to help.
