    So, there is now a Pilot in Newark NJ, but it has banker's hours. M-F is 6 AM to 6 PM, and weekends 7 AM to 6 PM. Are they on crack? While the parking is posted "No Overnight Parking," you can stay the night. You just can't leave, as the gates are locked. I got here at 10 AM on a Saturday, and the PJ Fresh was open, but Dunkin' Donuts was NOT. Later on, at 3 PM, Dunkin' Donuts WAS open, but NOT PJ Fresh. The same Pilot employees were running both counters. Who runs a place where you can only get pizza in the morning, and donuts in the afternoon? A review on their website claims they are closed overnight as per Newark NJ regulations. If so, remind me to never move to this "s-hole" city.

    Why would you even stop there?

    Come on. Drive a little bit more you will have your pick of places other than that.

    Half of Jersey to me is NO sleep, NO Stop zone. Not even for fuel or anything.

    They're closed at night to avoid being robbed.

    It's a great place to live as a career felon especially if your specialty is gun crimes.
