About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular asked the cashier, ‘Why does that old man always pay for his gas with pennies?’ The cashier shrugged and said, 'Oh, he’s just Mr. Jenkins from down the street. He does it because he loves making change.' The regular laughed and replied, 'Well, I guess that makes sense—everyone needs their daily dose of pennies!'
2. A delivery driver pulled up to BP one rainy afternoon, frowning as he tried to navigate the slippery pavement. Just then, an umbrella appeared out of nowhere and landed neatly on his head. The driver blinked a few times, rubbed his eyes, and looked around—no one was there. With a laugh, he shook off the umbrella and went inside for a coffee. Later that week, a regular stopped by and asked if they’d seen the guy who left behind a perfectly dry umbrella. The driver grinned and said, ‘Nope, but I’ll keep my eye out.’
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to BP and noticed something odd: the gas pumps seemed to hum in perfect harmony with the rain outside. Curious, he leaned closer—and realized it wasn’t the pumps at all but an old man next door, standing under his porch roof, singing along to the rhythm of the rain. The delivery driver smiled, shook his head, and drove off, muttering something about strange neighbors.
4. At dawn, a sleepy gas station attendant unlocked the doors of BP. An elderly gentleman approached, saying, 'I haven't filled my tank here in years, but today I feel like it.' The attendant smiled and nodded, pouring the familiar brand into the old man's car. As he finished, an impish smile crept across his face—he had almost forgotten the special touch: ‘Sir, would you like your usual top-up of coffee?’ The man beamed, “Of course!” They chatted amiably for a few minutes before the old fellow drove off, leaving behind a whiff of nostalgia and a warm feeling in everyone’s heart.
