Right, probably gas stations will either add charging capability in a supercharger fashion, or they'll just turn into convenience stores.

But who would be willing to spend a couple of hours in a gas station?

Anyone doing a long journey. You can use the time to eat, relax from four hours driving.

I charge my electric car in my house everyday. I don't think about that. Way more convenient that going to the gas station.

More likely road food places will simply add charging stations. Also possible someone will make a business washing peoples windows in the parking lot.

People probably wouldn't go there for full charges, but 20 minutes to go from a few percent to 20% to get home? Yeah, I see that happening.
