Freshies Mars Hill

This is a brand New Store great location nice set up! However i can only give 2 stars because their bathrooms are always a mess and many times you stop in for a hot dog or slice of pizza and there are none made. Also this place replaced what used to be Shell/Mars Hill Truck stop which had a diesel fuel island for trailer trucks plus parking but they decided to do away with both and considering Mars Hill is a town with many truck Brokers on Main St potato houses around the corner and Pineland Farms production plant a mile or so up the road and McCains and JM Huber 20 minutes north many Truckers are now left with no place to park when they are out of time or waiting on a load

We were glad to find Freshies. The main diner in the town was not open and we didn 't want to go to the local bar. Hubby was looking for pizza. I was looking for salad. All of a sudden I saw the sign Pizza and Salad . Well there! We drove right in. We got what we each wanted and the service was great, the food was good, and the price was right. Can 't beat that. Don 't miss it as it is a part of a gas station but right in front of the grocery store in town.

There is ONE employee in this store who is an absolute joy. The others are beyond rude. In addition, I’ve been there twice just this week when it was very busy with long lines. In both cases, one register was open with multiple people behind the counter. Last night the line stretched around to the beer cooler and there were three people standing behind the counter. I can be very patient and understanding...the first few times. However, this is getting to be the norm and I have lost patience. Very poorly managed store.

The store is decent, but for some reason, they always seem to close 5 minutes early. In my years of customer service, I've learned that you should stick to the posted closing time, not shut down early. It feels like false advertising, but apparently, that's just how things are done around here!

They always serve me the freshest pot of coffee, which is what matters most during my visits. I can't ask for a better cup of Joe, especially when I'm in the middle of nowhere.
