About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, every morning around dawn, a delivery driver would pull up with an old pickup truck. He’d unload crates of donuts and pastries, but no one ever saw him leave. Rumor had it that he traded them for something unusual—smiles and good wishes from early customers. One day, an excited little girl approached the counter and asked her dad, ‘Dad, why do people always smile when they buy donuts here?’ The man smiled and whispered, ‘Honey, they’re not buying just any donut—they’re paying for their very first smile of the day!’

2. At Chevron, every night after closing, a neighborhood cat would sneak into the storage room and steal the last donut from the employee breakroom fridge. One night, a delivery driver heard rustling in the dark and found himself facing not just one but an entire gang of curious kittens. They were guarding their newly stolen treasure—an armada of donuts! Since then, whenever anyone orders extra large deliveries, they always add ‘please include an extra box for our feline friends’.

3. At Chevron, during slow Sunday afternoons, a regular would suddenly announce over the intercom: 'Attention everyone—we’re out of coffee!' And just like that, customers would rush inside, only to discover there was plenty left. One day, an elderly neighbor walked in and declared loudly, ‘We’ve run out of sugar!’ Everyone rushed for the counter… until they saw the big bag of sugar sitting untouched next to the cash register. The regular laughed and said, ‘Guess who always forgets to bring his own sugar?’

4. At Chevron, every evening just before sunset, a mysterious figure in a trench coat would appear and whisper something into the gas pump. The next morning, the gas pump would spout confetti instead of gas, leaving everyone perplexed but smiling. A delivery driver once joked, ‘Maybe it’s telling us to party on empty!’
