7 Eleven

Although I am more of a Plaid Pantry fan (who doesn’t love all though coupons!?!), I’ve become a «regular» at this store and at the gas station in the same parking lot. Surprisingly, that means that all the employees know my name, ask how my sons are, and in most cases remind me that I am forgetting something (because sadly, I am a creature of habit). What other 7 – 11 store does that? I don’t believe any others do. I love the employees here. I love how they are helpful when looking for something. I love how they don’t get huffy, like some in customer service do, when you ask for one of those yummy Big Bites.
OHHHH here is another big one. The line could be wrapping around the building and somehow I have never been in line longer then 2 minutes. They are so speedy when running two registers. Impressive!
Overall, great store.

I don’t know why 7 Eleven gets such a bad rap. I understand that they can be a little sketchy. However, when you think about it, this has nothing to do with the actual store.
I find that this location meets many key indicators of a Quality Establishment:
1. Staff: The overwhelming majority of my interactions with 7 Eleven Team Members have been satisfactory to excellent. They are friendly and helpful.
2. Prices: The store prices range from slightly high to extremely reasonable.
3. Selection: Like any convenience store, they don’t have everything but do a decent job of having what you might need when there are no other options or time is a factor.
In addition, the stores aren’t scary like some of the local independent convenient stores I have seen. A solid 4 Stars among similar establishments.

Charges 3x more for larger refills more than the rest of the city’s 7 Elevens. The place could use a serious update too. Feels like everything was original in the place. The lot is shared with a gas station that was closed for a long time and reopening.
