Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Description of Business, Concentration Risk and Other Disclosures	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND OTHER DISCLOSURES Description of Business On October 1, 2014, CST Brands, Inc. (“CST”) completed the purchase of 100% of the membership interests in Lehigh Gas GP LLC (the “General Partner”) and 100% of the incentive distribution rights (“IDRs”) of Lehigh Gas Partners LP. After the purchase of the membership interests in its General Partner, the name of Lehigh Gas Partners LP was changed to CrossAmerica Partners LP (“we,” “us,” “our,” “CrossAmerica” or “Company”). The General Partner manages our operations and business activities. The General Partner is managed and operated by the executive officers of the General Partner, under the oversight of the Board of Directors of the General Partner. As a result of the acquisition of the membership interests in the General Partner, CST controls the General Partner and has the right to appoint all members of the board of directors of the General Partner. Our business consists of: • the wholesale distribution of motor fuels; • the retail distribution of motor fuels to end customers at sites operated by commission agents or CrossAmerica; • the owning or leasing of sites used in the retail distribution of motor fuels and, in turn, generating rental income from the lease or sublease of the sites; and • the operation of convenience stores. The financial statements are comprised of CrossAmerica and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. CrossAmerica’s primary operations are conducted by the following consolidated wholly owned subsidiaries: • Lehigh Gas Wholesale LLC (“LGW”), which distributes motor fuels on a wholesale basis and generates qualified income under Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; • LGP Realty Holdings LP (“LGPR”), which functions as the real estate holding company of CrossAmerica and holds the assets that generate rental income that is qualifying under Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; and • Lehigh Gas Wholesale Services, Inc. (“LGWS”), which owns and leases (or leases and sub-leases) real estate and personal property used in the retail distribution of motor fuels, as well as provides maintenance and other services to its customers. In addition, LGWS distributes motor fuels on a retail basis and sells convenience merchandise items to end customers at Company operated retail sites and sells motor fuel on a retail basis at sites operated by commission agents. Income from the retail distribution of motor fuels and rental income from leases of real property to a related party is not qualifying income under Section 7704(d) of the Internal Revenue Code. As part of our relationship with CST, we plan to purchase interests in CST’s wholesale motor fuel supply business (“CST Fuel Supply”) over time. In January 2015 and again in July 2015, we closed on the purchase of a 5% and 12.5% , respectively, limited partner equity interests in CST Fuel Supply. As of August 5, 2015, our total equity interest in CST Fuel Supply is 17.5% . Interim Financial Statements These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless disclosed otherwise. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to keep the information presented from being misleading. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (“Form 10-K”). Financial information as of June 30, 2015 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 included in the condensed notes to the consolidated financial statements has been derived from our unaudited financial statements. Financial information as of December 31, 2014 has been derived from our audited financial statements and notes thereto as of that date. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015 . Our business exhibits substantial seasonality due to our wholesale and retail sites being located in certain geographic areas that are affected by seasonal weather and temperature trends and associated changes in retail customer activity during different seasons. Historically, sales volumes have been highest in the second and third quarters (during the summer activity months) and lowest during the winter months in the first and fourth quarters. Reclassifications The statement of operations was revised from the presentation included in our Form 10-K to conform to that presented in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed by CST. As a result, certain reclassifications were made to prior period amounts to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income or equity for any periods. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results and outcomes could differ from those estimates and assumptions. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates based on currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances could result in revised estimates and assumptions. Significant Accounting Policies There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies described in our Form 10-K. New Accounting Pronouncements In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-06— Earnings Per Share (Topic 260): Effects on Historical Earnings per Unit of Master Limited Partnership Dropdown Transactions , which requires that for purposes of calculating historical earnings per unit under the two-class method, the earnings (losses) of a transferred business before the date of a dropdown transaction should be allocated entirely to the general partner. This guidance is effective January 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis for all financial statements presented. Management is currently evaluating this new guidance, including how it will apply the guidance at the date of adoption. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03— Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) , which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This guidance is effective January 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented should be adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. If the guidance were applicable at June 30, 2015 , other noncurrent assets and long-term debt would be lower by $6.1 million . In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09— Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which results in comprehensive new revenue accounting guidance, requires enhanced disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized, and develops a common revenue standard under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. Specifically, the core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This guidance is effective January 1, 2018, pending issuance of the final Accounting Standards Update. Early adoption is not permitted. The guidance can be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented, or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Management is currently evaluating this new guidance, including how it will apply the guidance at the date of adoption. Certain other new financial accounting pronouncements have become effective for our financial statements and the adoption of these pronouncements will not affect our financial position or results of operations, nor will they require any additional disclosures. Concentration Risk Dunne Manning Stores LLC (formerly known as Lehigh Gas-Ohio, LLC) (“DMS” or “affiliated dealer”) is an operator of retail sites that purchases a significant portion of its motor fuel requirements from us on a wholesale basis and then re-sells motor fuel on a retail basis. DMS also leases real estate from us. The financial results of DMS are not consolidated with ours. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , CrossAmerica distributed approximately 17% of its total wholesale distribution volumes to DMS and DMS accounted for approximately 42% of our rental income. For more information regarding transactions with DMS, see Note 9 . For the six months ended June 30, 2015 , CrossAmerica’s wholesale business purchased approximately 27% , 25% and 23% of its motor fuel from ExxonMobil, BP and Motiva, respectively. No other fuel suppliers accounted for 10% or more of CrossAmerica’s fuel purchases in the first half of 2015 . As of August 5, 2015, CrossAmerica’s total equity interest in CST Fuel Supply is 17.5% . Valero Energy Corporation (“Valero”) supplied substantially all of the motor fuel purchased by CST Fuel Supply for resale to CST’s U.S. Retail segment during 2015. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , CST Fuel Supply purchased $1.1 billion and $2.0 billion , respectively, of motor fuel from Valero. The store personnel at the convenience stores we acquired from Petroleum Marketers Incorporated (“PMI”) are employees of Pinehurst Services LLC (“Pinehurst”), to which we pay a management fee pursuant to the terms of an employee staffing agreement. Pinehurst employs approximately 650 people that support our PMI convenience store operations and is owned and managed by an unrelated party. We incurred $5.0 million and $11.1 million in management fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively, under the employee staffing agreement, which is primarily included in operating expenses on the statement of operations.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block]	ACQUISITIONS Purchase (“Drop Down”) of CST Wholesale Fuel Supply Equity Interests In January 2015, we closed on the purchase of a 5% limited partner equity interest in CST Fuel Supply in exchange for approximately 1.5 million common units with an aggregate consideration of $60.0 million on the date of closing. In July 2015, we closed on the purchase of an additional 12.5% limited partner equity interest in CST Fuel Supply in exchange for approximately $3.3 million common units and cash in the amount of $17.5 million , with an aggregate consideration of approximately $110.9 million on the date of closing. These transactions were approved by the conflicts committee of the General Partner and the executive committee of and full board of directors of CST. As of August 5, 2015, CrossAmerica’s total equity interest in CST Fuel Supply is 17.5% , and CST’s total equity interest in CrossAmerica is 15.9% . Because these transactions were between entities under common control, the excess of the purchase price paid by CrossAmerica over the carrying value recorded on CST’s balance sheet is recorded as a distribution to CST in CrossAmerica’s consolidated equity. See Note 9 for additional information. Acquisition of Landmark Industries Stores (“Landmark”) In January 2015, CST and CrossAmerica jointly purchased 22 convenience stores from Landmark. CrossAmerica purchased the real property of the 22 fee sites as well as certain wholesale fuel distribution assets for $41.2 million . LGWS leases the acquired real property to CST under triple net leases at a lease rate per annum of 7.5% of the fair value of the leased property on the acquisition date and LGW distributes wholesale motor fuel to CST under long term agreements with a fuel gross profit margin of approximately $0.05 per gallon. The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired at the acquisition date (in thousands): Property and equipment $ 24,129 Other assets 4,399 Goodwill 12,681 Total consideration $ 41,209 The fair value of property and equipment, which consisted of land, buildings and equipment, was based on a cost approach. The buildings and equipment are being depreciated on a straight-line basis, with estimated useful lives of 20 years . The other assets consist of net deferred tax assets associated with the difference between the book and tax bases of the net assets acquired. A substantial portion of the goodwill represents the value that would have been allocated to wholesale fuel distribution rights. However, because the acquired wholesale fuel distribution rights relate to entities under common control under U.S. GAAP, this identifiable intangible is not permitted to be recognized and therefore the value has been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill has been assigned to the Wholesale segment. Aggregate incremental revenues since the closing of the Landmark acquisition included in CrossAmerica’s statement of operations were $19.5 million and $31.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively. Acquisition of Erickson Oil Products, Inc. (“Erickson”) In February 2015, CrossAmerica closed on the purchase of all of the outstanding capital stock of Erickson and separate purchases of certain related assets with an aggregate purchase price of $81.9 million , net of $3.0 million of cash acquired, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. These transactions resulted in the acquisition of a total of 64 retail sites located in Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin and South Dakota. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date (in thousands): Current assets (excluding inventories) $ 4,080 Inventories 8,484 Property and equipment 75,232 Intangible assets 14,010 Goodwill 30,019 Current liabilities (19,818 ) Deferred tax liabilities (27,602 ) Asset retirement obligations (2,204 ) Other liabilities (273 ) Total consideration, net of cash acquired $ 81,928 The fair value of inventory was estimated at retail selling price less estimated costs to sell and a reasonable profit allowance for the selling effort. The fair value of property and equipment, which consisted of land, buildings and equipment, was based on a cost approach. The buildings and equipment are being depreciated on a straight-line basis, with estimated remaining useful lives of 15 years for the buildings and 5 to 10 years for equipment. The $11.7 million fair value of the wholesale fuel distribution rights included in intangibles was based on an income approach and management believes the level and timing of cash flows represent relevant market participant assumptions. The wholesale fuel distribution rights are being amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of approximately 10 years . Goodwill recorded is primarily attributable to the deferred tax liabilities arising from the application of purchase accounting. Management is reviewing the valuation and confirming the result to determine the final purchase price allocation. Of the goodwill recorded, $9.0 million was assigned to the Wholesale segment and $21.0 million was assigned to the Retail segment. Our pro forma results, assuming we acquired Erickson on January 1, 2014 , would have been (in thousands): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Total revenues $ 647,448 $ 847,217 $ 1,151,563 $ 1,404,743 Net income (loss) $ 28 $ 608 $ (2,760 ) $ 642 Net income (loss) per limited partnership unit $ (0.01 ) $ 0.03 $ (0.13 ) $ 0.03 Subsequent Event—Purchase of New to Industry (“NTI”) Convenience Stores In July 2015, we completed the purchase of real property at 29 NTIs from CST in exchange for an aggregate consideration of approximately 0.3 million common units and cash in the amount of $124.4 million , with an aggregate consideration of $134.0 million on the date of closing. This transaction was approved by the conflicts committee of the General Partner and the executive committee of and full board of directors of CST. Subsequent Event—Acquisition of One Stop In July 2015, CrossAmerica completed the purchase of the 41 company-operated One Stop convenience store network based in Charleston, West Virginia, along with four commission agent sites, nine dealer fuel supply agreements and one freestanding franchised quick service restaurant for approximately $41.9 million in cash.

The amount of availability at June 30, 2015 under the revolving credit facility, after taking into account outstanding letters of credit and debt covenant constraints, was $139.5 million . Subsequent to the July 2015 acquisitions discussed in Note 2, the availability for future borrowings was approximately $98.9 million . In connection with future acquisitions, the revolving credit facility requires, among other things, that we have, after giving effect to such acquisition, at least $20.0 million of borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility and unrestricted cash on the balance sheet on the date of such acquisition. In connection with the Rocky Top acquisition that we completed on September 24, 2013, we entered into a lease for certain sites which obligates CrossAmerica to purchase these sites, at the election of the lessor, either (a) in whole on or about August 1, 2015, or (b) in approximately equal parts over a 5 year period for an average of $5.3 million per year beginning in 2016. At December 31, 2014, CrossAmerica classified the entire balance of the financing obligation associated with the Rocky Top acquisition as current due to the possibility that CrossAmerica would be required to fund the obligation in 2015. In 2015, the sellers gave notice that the option of requiring a purchase of the sites on August 1, 2015 would not be exercised, and CrossAmerica reclassified $20.8 million to noncurrent in 2015. Financial Covenants and Interest Rate The Company’s revolving credit facility contains financial covenants consisting of a Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters of less than or equal to 5.00 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of greater than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00. As of June 30, 2015 , CrossAmerica was in compliance with these covenants. Outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate plus a margin of 3.25% . Our borrowings had an interest rate of 3.44% as of June 30, 2015 .

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Related Party Disclosure	RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Transactions with CST Fuel Sales and Rental Income Beginning in 2015, CrossAmerica sells motor fuel to CST under a master fuel distribution agreement and leases certain retail sites to CST under a master lease agreement having initial 10 -year terms. The fuel distribution agreement provides CrossAmerica with a fixed wholesale mark-up per gallon and the master lease agreement is a triple net lease. Revenues from fuel sales and rental income from CST were as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Revenues from fuel sales to CST $ 41,134 $ — $ 69,674 $ — Rental income from CST 1,051 — 2,077 — Receivables from CST were $4.4 million and $3.2 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively, related to these transactions. Purchase of CST Fuel Supply Equity Interests We accounted for the January 2015 purchase of equity interests in CST Fuel Supply based on the carrying value recorded on CST’s balance sheet, which amounted to $0.4 million at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price paid by CrossAmerica over the carrying value on CST’s balance sheet was recorded in equity as a distribution to CST in the amount of $59.6 million . CrossAmerica accounts for the equity interest in the net income of CST Fuel Supply as “Income from CST Fuel Supply” on its statement of operations, which amounted to $1.2 million and $2.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively. As discussed in Note 2, in July 2015, we purchased additional equity interests in CST Fuel Supply. Transactions with DMS DMS is an entity affiliated with Joseph V. Topper, Jr., our Chief Executive Officer and member of the board of directors of the General Partner. DMS is an operator of convenience stores that purchases all of its motor fuel requirements from us on a wholesale basis. DMS also leases certain retail site real estate from us in accordance with a master lease agreement between DMS and CrossAmerica. Revenues from fuel sales and rental income from DMS were as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Revenues from fuel sales to DMS $ 98,082 $ 210,492 $ 168,466 $ 384,897 Rental income from DMS $ 4,934 $ 5,105 $ 9,832 $ 10,512 Motor fuel is sold to DMS at our cost plus a fixed mark-up per gallon. Receivables from DMS totaled $12.8 million and $10.3 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . Omnibus Agreement and Management Fees In connection with our initial public offering on October 30, 2012 (the “IPO”), we entered into an Omnibus Agreement (the “Original Omnibus Agreement”) by and among CrossAmerica, the General Partner, Dunne Manning Inc. (“DMI”), DMS and, for limited purposes, Joseph V. Topper, Jr. CrossAmerica incurred $1.7 million and $3.4 million in management fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively, under the Original Omnibus Agreement classified as general and administrative expenses in the statement of operations. CrossAmerica entered into an Amended and Restated Omnibus Agreement, dated October 1, 2014, by and among CrossAmerica, the General Partner, DMI, DMS, CST and Joseph V. Topper, Jr. (the “Amended Omnibus Agreement”), which amends and restates the Original Omnibus Agreement. CrossAmerica incurred $2.5 million and $5.0 million in charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively. In addition, CST allocated $0.1 million and $2.2 million in non-cash stock-based compensation and incentive compensation costs to us for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively, under the Amended Omnibus Agreement. Amounts payable to CST related to these transactions were $6.3 million and $0.1 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. As approved by the independent conflicts committee of the General Partner and the executive committee of CST’s board of directors, CrossAmerica and CST mutually agreed to settle the second quarter 2015 amounts due under the terms of the Amended Omnibus Agreement in limited partnership units. As a result, in July 2015, CrossAmerica issued 145,056 limited partner units to CST valued at $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 . CST and CrossAmerica have the right to negotiate the amount of the management fee on an annual basis, or more often as circumstances require. Maintenance and Environmental Costs Certain maintenance and environmental monitoring and remediation activities are undertaken by a related party of CrossAmerica as approved by the conflicts committee. CrossAmerica incurred $0.6 million and $0.4 million with this related party for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and $0.7 million and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Aircraft Usage Costs From time to time, CrossAmerica uses aircraft owned by a group of individuals that includes Joseph V. Topper, Jr. and another member of the board of directors of the General Partner as previously approved in August 2013 by the independent members of the conflicts committee of the General Partner. CrossAmerica incurred $0.1 million for the use of these aircraft for the six months ended June 30, 2015 . Receivables from Zimri DM, LLC In connection with the purchase of PMI in May 2014, CrossAmerica divested the PMI lubricants business, which was subsequently purchased by a company affiliated with Joseph V. Topper, Jr., our Chief Executive Officer (“Zimri”). PMI provides certain services to Zimri pursuant to a transition services agreement. As of June 30, 2015, CrossAmerica recorded a receivable of $0.1 million related to the services provided under the transition services agreement. All amounts have been subsequently collected.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Litigation Matters We are from time to time party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. These actions typically seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract and/or property damages, environmental damages, employment-related claims and damages, punitive damages, civil penalties or other losses, or injunctive or declaratory relief. With respect to all such lawsuits, claims and proceedings, we record a reserve when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In addition, we disclose matters for which management believes a material loss is at least reasonably possible. None of these proceedings, separately or in the aggregate, are expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In all instances, management has assessed the matter based on current information and made a judgment concerning its potential outcome, giving due consideration to the nature of the claim, the amount and nature of damages sought and the probability of success. Management’s judgment may prove materially inaccurate, and such judgment is made subject to the known uncertainties of litigation. Environmental Matters Environmental liabilities related to the sites contributed to CrossAmerica in connection with its IPO have not been assigned to CrossAmerica, and are still the responsibility of the Predecessor Entities (see the Form 10-K for additional discussion of the Predecessor Entities). Under the Amended Omnibus Agreement, certain of the Predecessor Entities must indemnify CrossAmerica for any costs or expenses that it incurs for environmental liabilities and third-party claims, regardless of when a claim is made, that are based on environmental conditions in existence prior to the closing of the IPO of CrossAmerica for contributed sites. The Predecessor Entities’ environmental liabilities and corresponding indemnification assets had balances of $13.5 million and $11.6 million , respectively, at June 30, 2015 .

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS CrossAmerica measures and reports certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities on a fair value basis. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). U.S. GAAP specifies a three-level hierarchy that is used when measuring and disclosing fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices available in active markets (i.e., observable inputs) and the lowest priority to data lacking transparency (i.e., unobservable inputs). An instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. The following is a description of the three hierarchy levels. Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Active markets are considered to be those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2—Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets. Level 3—Unobservable inputs are not corroborated by market data. This category is comprised of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is estimated based on internally developed models or methodologies using significant inputs that are generally less readily observable from objective sources. Transfers into or out of any hierarchy level are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which the transfers occurred. There were no transfers between any levels in 2015 or 2014 . As further discussed in Note 13 , CrossAmerica has accrued for unvested phantom units and vested and unvested profits interests as a liability and adjusts that liability on a recurring basis based on the market price of CrossAmerica’s common units each balance sheet date. Such fair value measurements are deemed Level 1 measurements. Financial Instruments The fair value of CrossAmerica’s accounts receivable, notes receivable, and accounts payable approximated their carrying values as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the revolving credit facility approximated its carrying value of $186.9 million as of June 30, 2015 and $200.4 million as of December 31, 2014 due to the frequency with which interest rates are reset based on changes in prevailing interest rates.

Equity [Abstract]
Partners' Capital	PARTNERS’ CAPITAL In January 2015, 1,497,946 common units were issued in connection with the acquisition of a 5% interest in CST Fuel Supply. See Notes 2 and 9 for additional information. In March 2015 , 90,671 common units were issued (net of units withheld for income taxes) as a result of the vesting of phantom units previously issued primarily to CST employees who provide services principally to CrossAmerica. See Note 13 for additional information. On June 19, 2015, CrossAmerica closed on the sale of 4.6 million common units for net proceeds of approximately $138.5 million . CrossAmerica used the net proceeds from this offering to reduce indebtedness outstanding under its revolving credit facility. On July 16, 2015, CrossAmerica closed on the sale of an additional 0.2 million common units for net proceeds of approximately $6.2 million in accordance with the underwriters’ option to purchase additional common units associated with the June offering. Subsequent Events—Common Unit Issuances On July 1, 2015, 3,303,208 common units were issued to CST in connection with the acquisition of a 12.5% additional equity interest in CST Fuel Supply. See Notes 2 and 9 for additional information. On July 1, 2015, 338,098 common units were issued to CST in connection with the acquisition of real property at 29 NTIs. See Note 2 for additional information. On July 16, 2015, 145,056 common units were issued to CST in connection with the amounts incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2015 under the terms of the Amended Omnibus Agreement.

Equity-Based Compensation [Abstract]
Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Text Block]	EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION Overview We record stock-based compensation as a component of general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations. Compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $0.5 million and $1.2 million , respectively. Compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $3.4 million and $2.1 million , respectively. Such amounts include the allocation of stock-based compensation expense from CST. CrossAmerica Equity-Based Awards Grants of equity-based awards occurred in the first half of 2015 and consisted of: Number of Securities Weighted-Avg Grant-Date Fair Value Phantom units 39,891 $ 33.86 Profits interests 34,728 $ 33.92 These awards were fully vested on the date of grant and related to our short term incentive plan, excluding 4,077 phantom units issued to our President, which vest in equal increments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. Prior to 2015, issued awards generally vest in equal increments on the first, second and third anniversaries of their date of grant. It is the intent of CrossAmerica to settle the phantom units upon vesting by issuing common units and to settle the profits interests upon conversion by the grantee by issuing common units. However, the awards may be settled in cash at the discretion of the board of directors of the General Partner. Since CrossAmerica grants awards to employees of CST, and since the grants may be settled in cash, unvested phantom units and vested and unvested profits interests receive fair value variable accounting treatment. As such, they are measured at fair value at each balance sheet reporting date and the cumulative compensation cost recognized is classified as a liability, which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The balance of the accrual at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 totaled $2.1 million and $5.0 million , respectively. CST Awards Approximately 155,000 CST stock based awards were granted to certain employees of CST for services rendered on behalf of CrossAmerica and $0.1 million and $1.7 million of expense associated with the awards was allocated to CrossAmerica under the Amended Omnibus Agreement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively. Awards to Members of the Board of Directors In 2014, CrossAmerica granted 6,141 phantom units to the non-employee members of the board of directors of the General Partner as a portion of director compensation, which will vest on November 10, 2015 . The fair value of these awards at June 30, 2015 , including previously issued fully vested profits interests that have not been converted into common units, was $0.5 million . Compensation expense was not significant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 .

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Net Income per Limited Partnership Unit Disclosure	NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNER UNIT Under the Amended and Restated Partnership Agreement of CrossAmerica (the “Partnership Agreement”), the holders of CrossAmerica’s IDRs have an interest in distributions from CrossAmerica that are increasing percentages starting at 15% of quarterly distributions out of the operating surplus (as defined in our Partnership Agreement) in excess of $0.5031 per limited partner unit. CrossAmerica’s undistributed net income is generally allocable pro rata to the common and subordinated unitholders, except where common unitholders have received cash distributions in excess of the subordinated unitholders. In that circumstance, net income is allocated to the common unitholders first in support of such excess cash distribution paid to them and the remainder of the net income is allocable pro rata to the common and subordinated unitholders. Losses are generally allocable pro rata to the common and subordinated unitholders in accordance with the Partnership Agreement unless a loss would create or increase a Partnership deficit balance, in which case the loss would be allocated to the General Partner. In addition to the common and subordinated units, CrossAmerica has identified the IDRs as participating securities and computes income per unit using the two-class method under which any excess of distributions declared over net income shall be allocated to the partners based on their respective sharing of income as specified in the Partnership Agreement. Net income per unit applicable to limited partners (including common and subordinated unitholders) is computed by dividing the limited partners’ interest in net income (loss), after deducting the IDRs, by the weighted-average number of outstanding common and subordinated units. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) and weighted-average units used in computing basic and diluted net income (loss) per limited partner unit for the following periods (in thousands, except unit and per unit amounts): Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 2014 Common Units Subordinated Units Common Units Subordinated Units Numerator: Distributions paid (a) $ 9,324 $ 4,120 $ 5,737 $ 3,857 Allocation of distributions in excess of net income (b) (9,452 ) (4,157 ) (4,625 ) (3,108 ) Limited partners’ interest in net income (loss) -basic (128 ) (37 ) 1,112 749 Adjustment for phantom units — — — — Limited partners’ interest in net income (loss) -diluted $ (128 ) $ (37 ) $ 1,112 $ 749 Denominator: Weighted average limited partnership units outstanding-basic 17,582,365 7,525,000 11,194,203 7,525,000 Adjustment for phantom units — — — — Weighted average limited partnership units outstanding-diluted (c) 17,582,365 7,525,000 11,194,203 7,525,000 Net income (loss) per limited partnership unit-basic $ (0.01 ) $ (0.01 ) $ 0.10 $ 0.10 Net income (loss) per limited partnership unit-diluted $ (0.01 ) $ (0.01 ) $ 0.10 $ 0.10 Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 2014 Common Units Subordinated Units Common Units Subordinated Units Numerator: Distributions paid (a) $ 18,512 $ 8,202 $ 11,474 $ 7,714 Allocation of distributions in excess of net income (b) (20,811 ) (9,204 ) (9,529 ) (6,401 ) Limited partners’ interest in net income (loss) -basic (2,299 ) (1,002 ) 1,945 1,313 Adjustment for phantom units — — 2 — Limited partners’ interest in net income (loss) -diluted $ (2,299 ) $ (1,002 ) $ 1,947 $ 1,313 Denominator: Weighted average limited partnership units outstanding-basic 17,260,533 7,525,000 11,155,140 7,525,000 Adjustment for phantom units — — 15,936 — Weighted average limited partnership units outstanding-diluted (c) 17,260,533 7,525,000 11,171,076 7,525,000 Net income (loss) per limited partnership unit-basic $ (0.13 ) $ (0.13 ) $ 0.17 $ 0.17 Net income (loss) per limited partnership unit-diluted $ (0.13 ) $ (0.13 ) $ 0.17 $ 0.17 (a) Distributions paid per unit were $0.5475 and $0.5125 during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Tax Disclosure	INCOME TAXES As a limited partnership, CrossAmerica is not subject to federal and state income taxes. Income tax attributable to CrossAmerica’s taxable income, which may differ significantly from income for financial statement purposes, is assessed at the individual level of the limited partner unit holders. CrossAmerica is subject to a statutory requirement that non-qualifying income, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, cannot exceed 10% of total gross income for the calendar year. If non-qualifying income exceeds this statutory limit, CrossAmerica would be taxed as a corporation. The non-qualifying income did not exceed the statutory limit in any period. Certain activities that generate non-qualifying income are conducted through CrossAmerica’s wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries that are corporations, LGWS and its subsidiaries. Current and deferred income taxes are recognized on the earnings of the corporate subsidiaries. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and are measured using enacted tax rates. The Company’s tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $0.9 million on a loss before income taxes of $0.9 million . This benefit includes a decrease in the valuation allowance of $0.4 million . The Company’s tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $3.9 million on a loss before taxes of $2.0 million . The effective tax rate was higher than the combined federal and state statutory rate because only the corporate operations are subject to income tax. The Company’s tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $2.6 million on a loss before income taxes of $5.5 million . This benefit includes a decrease in the valuation allowance of $0.4 million . The Company’s tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $3.8 million on a loss before taxes of $0.5 million . The effective tax rate was higher than the combined federal and state statutory rate because only the corporate operations are subject to income tax.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information Disclosure	SEGMENT REPORTING CrossAmerica conducts its business in two segments: 1) the Wholesale segment and 2) the Retail segment, which includes the sale of convenience merchandise items, the retail sale of motor fuel at Company operated sites and the retail sale of motor fuels at sites operated by commission agents. A commission agent is a retail site where we retain title to the motor fuel inventory and sell it directly to our end user customers; therefore, we manage motor fuel inventory pricing and retain the gross profit on motor fuel sales. We pay a commission to the agent who operates the retail site. Effective with the first quarter of 2015 management adopted operating income as a measure for disclosing our segments. Unallocated costs consist primarily of general and administrative expenses and the elimination of the Retail segment’s intersegment cost of revenues from fuel sales against the Wholesale segment’s intersegment revenues from fuel sales.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Reclassifications The statement of operations was revised from the presentation included in our Form 10-K to conform to that presented in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed by CST. As a result, certain reclassifications were made to prior period amounts to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income or equity for any periods.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results and outcomes could differ from those estimates and assumptions. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates based on currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances could result in revised estimates and assumptions.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	New Accounting Pronouncements In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-06— Earnings Per Share (Topic 260): Effects on Historical Earnings per Unit of Master Limited Partnership Dropdown Transactions , which requires that for purposes of calculating historical earnings per unit under the two-class method, the earnings (losses) of a transferred business before the date of a dropdown transaction should be allocated entirely to the general partner. This guidance is effective January 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis for all financial statements presented. Management is currently evaluating this new guidance, including how it will apply the guidance at the date of adoption. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03— Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) , which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This guidance is effective January 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented should be adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. If the guidance were applicable at June 30, 2015 , other noncurrent assets and long-term debt would be lower by $6.1 million . In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09— Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which results in comprehensive new revenue accounting guidance, requires enhanced disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized, and develops a common revenue standard under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. Specifically, the core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. This guidance is effective January 1, 2018, pending issuance of the final Accounting Standards Update. Early adoption is not permitted. The guidance can be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented, or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Management is currently evaluating this new guidance, including how it will apply the guidance at the date of adoption. Certain other new financial accounting pronouncements have become effective for our financial statements and the adoption of these pronouncements will not affect our financial position or results of operations, nor will they require any additional disclosures.
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Concentration Risk Dunne Manning Stores LLC (formerly known as Lehigh Gas-Ohio, LLC) (“DMS” or “affiliated dealer”) is an operator of retail sites that purchases a significant portion of its motor fuel requirements from us on a wholesale basis and then re-sells motor fuel on a retail basis. DMS also leases real estate from us. The financial results of DMS are not consolidated with ours. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , CrossAmerica distributed approximately 17% of its total wholesale distribution volumes to DMS and DMS accounted for approximately 42% of our rental income. For more information regarding transactions with DMS, see Note 9 . For the six months ended June 30, 2015 , CrossAmerica’s wholesale business purchased approximately 27% , 25% and 23% of its motor fuel from ExxonMobil, BP and Motiva, respectively. No other fuel suppliers accounted for 10% or more of CrossAmerica’s fuel purchases in the first half of 2015 . As of August 5, 2015, CrossAmerica’s total equity interest in CST Fuel Supply is 17.5% . Valero Energy Corporation (“Valero”) supplied substantially all of the motor fuel purchased by CST Fuel Supply for resale to CST’s U.S. Retail segment during 2015. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , CST Fuel Supply purchased $1.1 billion and $2.0 billion , respectively, of motor fuel from Valero. The store personnel at the convenience stores we acquired from Petroleum Marketers Incorporated (“PMI”) are employees of Pinehurst Services LLC (“Pinehurst”), to which we pay a management fee pursuant to the terms of an employee staffing agreement. Pinehurst employs approximately 650 people that support our PMI convenience store operations and is owned and managed by an unrelated party. We incurred $5.0 million and $11.1 million in management fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , respectively, under the employee staffing agreement, which is primarily included in operating expenses on the statement of operations.
