Sheetz

Being from Massachusetts Sheetz is a novilty for me when traveling with my wife to visit my inlaws. I love the extensive MTO menu and the huge selection of drinks, snacks, and chips they have. For the traveler who has never been Sheetz always has clean bathrooms.

Many of my friends swear by Sheetz the same way that I swear by Wawa or QuickTrip. It’s tidy, it’s easy, they have an excellent beverage and food selection. Well done.
Easy pump area though it could have been a bit wider. Nicely lit and with the snow, very well swept and salted. Fuel prices were very competitive.

The food at this Sheetz is pretty sub par and the service is worse. I watched the slowest employee on earth make me a slider — it took about ten minutes. The entire process consisted of microwaving the beef patty and putting it on a bun. The microwaving portion took 30 seconds, but this employee moved so slowly that it truly looked like she was trying to be as slow as she possibly could. Even handing me the bag took ages.
The store, since renovation, is pretty nice though. Huge soda, ice cream and yogurt selection (frozen yogurt). They also have one of those milkshake machines.

Took 15 minutes to receive an order of fries… That were cold. If I did this at my job in food service, I would be written up!

Worst Sheetz I’ve stopped at. Unfortunately I end up stopping here a lot. Every time I do no matter if it midnight or mid morning their food service is extremely slow. Slower than any other Sheetz. I have seen the people in the kitchen area doing everything expect make food. I have waited as long as 15mins for my food on a non crowded day.
Awful

The quintessential beacon in the night and the start/​finish line for all road trips — this Sheetz is not only tops in the area but is one of the finest in PA.
Number-​one point of excellence here is proximity to I-​81. You fill up, and you’re gone. You’ll also see consistently low fuel prices and fresh products, and there’s hardly ever a wait for MTO items.
Five stars because there’s just nothing more I need in a gas station /​quick mart concept.

Gas was 3.09! Holy crap yes!

Traveling, sheetz tends to have the lowest gas prices. This one had really friendly employees and seriously a buck for a pumpkin flavored cappuccino? Yay!

Tried the spicy chicken sandwich on a pretzel roll and some mozzarella sticks. The spicy chicken is good but could be a little spicier. The mozzarella sticks were a little overcooked and coming out of the breading but they were crispy and delicious. Somehow I forgot to order sauce with them and it kinda sucks that you have to pay extra for sauce. I love the touch screen ordering and options to customize. Still my favorite gas station/​convenience store.

Sheetz is like the Disney World of gas stations. Sadly, I don’t think we have anything remotely comparable here in Massachusetts. (That’s right, I’m reviewing a gas station! Ha!)
Go ahead and fill up, then walk into the actual store. I’m not sure if it was because we had been driving for 7+ hours, but it seemed almost magical in here. Definitely the cleanest convenience store/​gas station that I’ve ever walked into, nicely laid-​out products, super clean restroom. (Unexpected bonus there!)
But the coolest thing ever is that you can order food (on a fun touchscreen! I know, I need a life. hehe) and it’s MADE TO ORDER. Burgers, sandwiches, breakfast items, nachos, etc. Isn’t that the coolest thing you’ve ever heard? I had a pretty decent burger on a ciabatta roll and J. got a milkshake.
Coolest gas station ever. Come to Massachusetts, Sheetz!

Sheetz is the #2 thing I miss from Pennsylvania (next to the bar/​restaurant Hops and Barley’s.) The 24 hour delicious, made-​to-​order food is delicious and never disappointing. Pretzel melts! OMG, what I wouldn’t do for one right now… Or a Shmuffin. Or a Nachos Grande. It’s a store, clean bathroom, low-​priced gas, delicious 24 hour to-​go diner all-​in-​one. Sheetz, I miss you.

So here’s my situation:
In PA, there was a conflict over whether WaWa or Sheetz was the superior convenience store. This was a light-​hearted debate, and the bottom line was that both sides were really discussing the same establishment. There really is very little difference between the two places.
Here in SF, people find it inconceivable and disgusting that I would even eat at a place that doubles as a gas station. They scoff, they laugh. I don’t get it.
It’s not like the gas pumps are in the convenience store area… they’re separate! They are!
Now I’m just getting defensive, but still. This place has great food. Plus, you order it all to go on a TOUCH SCREEN! Take that iPhone! Sheetz did it better.
I was feeling rather down about my love for Sheetz until another person (not from PA, but not from SF originally) said he had a girlfriend from Philly. He asked me if I had ever been to a Wawa, adding «Man, I miss Wawas.» Thank you, Kevin from work. Thank you.
