It's the only gas station uptown. That's the biggest plus of this place.
There's only a couple pumps, so it can be kind of tricky getting in and out of here to get gas. If you are in a hurry, please note that the pumps are pretty slow here. I almost stopped at a half tank because it was taking so long.
The other main thing you should know: there's a lot a homeless people and panhandlers around this area. I was approached by two different men asking for money while I was filling up my car.
There is a Red Box here. You can also find a Red Box not too far away at the Harris Teeter. I try to only stop by this gas station during daylight hours and try to avoid going during rush hour.
