Not as giant as some other competitors, but Pilot Travel center provides all the items a traveler…read morecould need on their travels for a road trip. Everything from food to gas to gifts are covered here with a fairly nice selection for everything. This is particularly true of coffee and other beverage options which cover everything from frozen drinks to an impressive amount of flavored coffees. For goods like chips, soda, beef jerky, etc. there's also a better than average selection at fairly reasonable prices. I also like how the gas pumps were pretty good here and there was plenty of spacing between each station. With several options for filling up gas off the highway, the size and setup of this Travel Center makes it one of my preferred options.

A refueling stop is relatively routine. What was not routine was the number of questions the pay at…read morethe pump machine required. Unfortunately after all of the questions, I had to see the cashier, leave my driver's license and credit card while I refuels. I did not think I was in Gary, IN but it sure felt like it at this station. The station was very understaffed, only one at the counter tending to 6 customers. Each trucker has to go through a long winded process before they can go back and refuel. It seemed so inefficient. While I had not needed a restroom break, 30 minutes in, I best just make a stop as well. Wasting 30 minutes at a simple refueling stop is such a waste of time, considering my journey was a 2.5 hour run. Imagine every stop on a 10 hour trip! There might be a better option along the way. Might feel safer too. Glad I did not stop here in the evening I think it'll get sketchier when the sun is down.

So I had to look around and see how great it was... For a convenient store it has everything under the sun. I really appreciated that they stocked the San Pellegrino minis. Not a lot of places carry these until you hit Il. They have hot items: - egg rolls - burritos - chicken And other fast to go type food. They had 3-4 pizzas that actually looked decent for a convenient store. Seems handy for the truckers. .55 for ice. Really? Bathrooms were clean; which is always a plus.

My family was not a fan of their roasted chicken I don't care how cheap it is no thanks!
