As I pull into the bright and modern Lexo Energy petrol station in Kitale, Kenya, I can already sense that this place is different. It's not just a fuel station; it's part of a new wave of technology-led services in East Africa. I visited on a sunny Saturday afternoon, and the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming.
Once I parked, the sleek design of the station caught my eye. Clean lines, well-lit areas, and a layout that made it easy to navigate. I had heard great things about their convenience store and was excited to check it out. After filling up my tank with petrol that was priced competitively at just KSh 120 per litre, I ventured inside to explore what Lexo has to offer.
The convenience store was a treasure trove of items. From snacks to beverages, the selection was extensive. I couldn’t resist grabbing a refreshing bottle of Lexo’s signature energy drink, which I had heard was revitalizing and pleasingly fizzy. At just KSh 150, it was a steal! As I made my way to the cashier, I noticed the friendly staff assisting other customers. One attendant, Mercy, particularly stood out. A fellow patron praised her for being exceptionally helpful, stating, ‘Mercy was so quick to assist me with my questions about their products. She really made my visit memorable!’ I could see why—her warm demeanor brought a personal touch to the service.
Feeling energized and satisfied from my quick purchases, I decided to take a moment to enjoy my drink at the outdoor seating area. Lush greenery surrounded me, and the tables were well-maintained, providing a perfect spot for travelers to rest and recharge. The atmosphere buzzed with conversation as customers enjoyed sandwiches, pastries, and coffee from their cafe.
Speaking of food, I had to try their fresh sandwiches, which I had heard positive reviews about. Priced at KSh 250, the chicken mayo sandwich was loaded with flavor. It was evident that they use quality ingredients, making each bite delightful!
Overall, my experience at Lexo Kitale was nothing short of exceptional. From the modern facilities and low prices to the high level of customer service, this petrol station truly goes above and beyond. I left feeling not just refueled but revitalized by the atmosphere and kindness of the staff. If you're traveling through Kitale, I highly recommend making a stop at Lexo Energy—you won’t regret it!
