Sheetz Has Pennsylvania's Best On The Road Restrooms, Those On The Go Say
GasBuddy app users say there's no better bathroom to use while traveling than one at Sheetz.

PITTSBURGH, PA - As the summer travel season gets under way, it’s a vitally important question to answer: When you’re on the road and have to go, where’s the best place to pull over to make the proverbial pit stop?
In Pennsylvania, it’s the ubiquitous convenience store Sheetz. That’s according to gas price tracker GasBuddy, which recently released a list of the most well-maintained restrooms in all 50 states, as determined by GasBuddy app users. They left nearly 1.5 million reviews of more than 140,000 gas stations and travel plazas across the country.
Frank Beard, a GasBuddy convenience store and retail trends analyst, wasn’t surprised that Sheetz topped the Keystone State rankings.
