I've stopped here at least three times, mainly because of its convenient location at the corner of…read moreHwy 200 and Hwy 24/27. This place is sitting on a gold mine of potential but many factors are keeping them down. First of all, the pumps are old, very old. You wouldn't think that slow pumps would be that big of an issue but when you have a 30 gallon tank to fill, waiting 8 minutes is a bit much. The noises these pumps make are very loud as well. Not sure what to make of it. As you could imagine from the pumps, the interior leaves a lot to be desired as well. Very dated with high markups on their drinks and snacks. I take it a lot of locals stop here for their cigarettes because that's what most people are in line for the few times I've been inside. They sell pizza here as well but judging by the looks of the place I would advise against it. The last issue is the customer service here. As I've said, I've been here a handful of times and the same older lady has behind the counter every time. Once I've stood in front of the register with a soda while she carries on conversation with what I can only assume is a 'regular' customer. Another time I'm again waiting while she's arguing with someone about how long the pizza will take to cook. The last time I was here she was verbally scolding a man who apparently was joking around with her and I guess she was tired of him. He said he'd stop buying his drinks every morning from the store if she didn't calm down and that's when the obscenities started from behind the counter. It's like I walked into a bar fight... So the guy looked at her and said "see you never, Sue (assuming the lady's name)!" while she's still yelling... Again, the location has a lot of potential but the staff and the building itself is crumbling. Locust doesn't have many options as far as convenience stores go and it's a shame that they have to put up with this. Maybe a business like QT will buy the lot and one day put this place out of its misery.

One of the busier gas stations in town, probably because they make Hunt Brother's Pizza that you…read morecan buy by the slice, as well as order whole pizzas. I've never eaten a bad pizza from the Fast Shop. The store is always clean and staff is always friendly. There's also a great BBQ restaurant next door (Rock Store BBQ) connected directly to the gas station, which is great for getting gas, as well as a quick lunch, if you're not in the pizza mood.

This gas station and convenience store is located on the southwest corner of the busy intersections…read moreof US601 and NC27. It is easy enough to access with wide entrances and exits. The gas pump area is clean and well covered. My receipt printed and the squeegee worked well enough. I did not have cause to go inside today. I think this station has been a few things in previous incarnations, but it's a Speedway now. [Review 13910 overall, 1232 of 2020, number 2554 in North Carolina.]

This place is filthy and run down. I haven't visited this station in about a year. The pumps are…read morecovered in crud as well as some of the displays not working. You have to choose a pump that doesn't have a pile of mud or cat litter lying on the ground in front of the pump. The receipt printers still don't work as they should. Make sure you have hand sanitizer available after touching the filthy pump handles
