I highly recommend this business as a frequent customer. The establishment is conveniently located at the crossroads of Panama Lane and Colony Street, near the Walmart Supercenter and the In-N-Out restaurant. Moreover, it is easily accessible from the CA-99 freeway, allowing for convenient on and off-ramp access. This prime location ensures easy navigation for both local residents and those passing through the area. The store is a family-owned and operated establishment, known for its exceptional customer service, fairness, and honesty. When compared to the Chevron across the street, their pricing is particularly competitive. I have never encountered any issues with the availability of gas pumps, and the air compressor consistently functions properly. Additionally, this location offers convenient services such as propane and ice supplies. Inside, you'll find an ATM, including an Athena Bitcoin ATM, along with a comprehensive selection of liquor that includes top-tier spirits displayed behind the counter. The store also boasts a well-chilled beer selection, various wines, and a wide range of alcohol condiments. Furthermore, the bathroom, which requires a key for access, is open to the public. It is consistently maintained in pristine condition, emitting a pleasant fragrance, and always stocked with ample toilet paper and paper towels. The staff is always friendly when you request to use the facilities. For those who don't require fuel, there is nearby parking available. Additionally, this establishment offers a lottery service with both regular draw games and scratchers. Cashouts are available until 11:00 PM nightly. As for beverages, you'll find a diverse selection of refreshments, all stored in ice-cold freezer racks. They also offer Pepsi fountain drinks, including Pepsi, Dr Pepper, and Root Beer. Moreover, they provide "Frazil" frozen drinks and serve coffee freshly made three times a day, catering to both self-serve coffee lovers and those who prefer cappuccinos. The store also features a range of frozen treats such as Dip n Dots, Helados Ice Cream bars, and various other ice cream options. In terms of merchandise, you'll find an assortment of sunglasses, toys, hats, beanies, and sweaters. Additionally, the store excels in its candy selection, particularly the impressive array of Mexican candies. While the food selection is slightly more limited compared to larger stores, this convenience store still offers a variety of items typically found in such establishments. It's important to note that while this store does not provide car wash services, there is a recycling center located on the same lot behind the store. Additionally, a delicious taco truck, offering covered outdoor seating, is also located on the same lot, although these two places are not affiliated with the store. Overall, this gas station and convenience store is unparalleled. As a frequent visitor who frequents this location multiple times a day, I can confidently say that I have consistently had positive experiences here. The combination of excellent customer service, competitive pricing, and convenient location near major roads and popular establishments make it an ideal choice for both locals and travelers alike.
