We have a restaurant that only took cash for a long time. Because I usually pay everything with card, I have a card-only wallet and rarely any significant amount of cash on me. There is no ATM in the vicinity (it's in a small suburb).
The second time we didn't go there while passing that place, I dropped them a friendly mail. I must have been not the only one, because now they accept cards.
Sometimes talking to people helps. Though with a franchise there might be no-one on site with the power to "just fix" things. Regarding the gas station: Maybe charge at home instead? :P
