About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, customers started noticing something odd one foggy morning. Over the loud speaker came an announcement: ‘If you see a unicorn outside, it’s ours—please return it immediately.’ Soon, people from all over town were stopping by just to catch a glimpse of the mythical creature. A delivery driver even claimed he saw two unicorns fighting over a coffee cup! Eventually, a neighbor confessed that they’d been hiding a small herd in the back lot for months, using them as inspiration for their new children’s book. The whole thing turned out to be a charming hoax, and Chevron became known as the place where dreams—and unicorns—came true.

2. At Chevron, a delivery driver once asked aloud: ‘Why does my coffee always taste like gasoline?’ The manager smiled and replied, ‘Because you’re drinking it from our gas station café, not from your truck.’ The delivery driver shook his head with a laugh, realizing he’d been had—at least until next time.

3. At Chevron, a delivery driver once exclaimed, 'I keep seeing the same old lady filling up her car!' Curious patrons soon noticed that, indeed, every day around sunset, an elderly woman would pull into the station and pay with exact change. One day, a young employee dared himself to approach her. Turned out she was just a friendly neighborhood grandmother who enjoyed chatting while waiting for her husband to pick her up after work. Since then, everyone at Chevron knows not to miss ‘Grandma’s special time’—and some even bring cookies for her.

4. At Chevron, during an unusually quiet night, a lone delivery driver noticed a mysterious figure filling up gas cans in the parking lot. Curious but cautious, he followed from afar until the silhouette approached his truck. Turns out it was just a neighborhood cat, meowing for help and knocking over empty cans. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh—except maybe the poor feline, who learned not to mess with gas pumps.
