The Casey’s in my (small) hometown is an absolute dump and I try to avoid it at all costs. The one 10 mins from where I live now (another small town) is pretty solid and the employees all seem to do a good job. It’s crazy the difference between the two when they’re only about 20 mins apart from each other. But I’ll still usually go out of my way to go to the local Kwik Stars

It seems like Casey's just hires the first 6 people who apply and interview regardless. Kwik Star employees are way more personable and just seem to actually give a sh*t about their job.

I have a half hour-ish commute for work so I stop at the one Kwik Star on the way a couple times a week for gas and usually a sandwich every now and then. Never have bothered with rewards until one day the lady at the register said “Honey, you’re in here enough. Just get the rewards card for your benefit”. Just went and checked and I have a free ticket to a Twins or Brewers game lol

Casey's slide seemed to start after the Canadian company takeover bid perhaps five or six years ago. I guess they don't want any other companies finding them an attractive merger partner again. Nice work on that part, unfortunately Casey's is not attractive to customers either anymore.

On another issue, Why would anyone get a pizza there unless absolutely necessary? When you meet the typical help and see the restrooms you have to question the food service cleanliness. Also, their pizzas seem to be a lot worse than I remember. The last one we picked up months ago was trash, and it was the only one we had for a couple years before that.

Their pizzas are just soggy crust and all cheese. I will say their breakfast burritos are actually pretty good. But other than that their food is crap, including their pizzas.

We have 2 Casey near our house. One is nice, clean and well staffed.

The other looks like a chalk outline would fit in nicely with the rest of the decor.

Casey’s has always sucked.
This. I've traveled through a lot of rural areas in my job and Casey's have always been poorly staffed and disgusting. There were some nice ones here and there but a lot of small town Casey's always sucked. Hell, it was major upgrade when they got bathrooms that didn't require you to go into a closet behind the register in the 90s and 2000s.
