“A locally run gas station and convenient shop. Great location, good prices on gas and run by a local family. The convenience shop has everything you need from drinks to food to snacks.”
“The staff members are helpful, convenient location. Some of the item needs to be restocked (make up, snacks,etc). I always would love to shop their discounts because the deals are really really good”
“Great service. I got the 2 pizzas for $2 and my friend got a hot dog. Parking is more truckable than it looks. Pizza was decent and my friend did not like the hot dog. What was great about the service was that they gave us napkins without us asking - we sure needed then.”
“Kristine on the wall screen delivered outstanding service! She was incredibly helpful, patient, and genuinely made my day. Truly exceptional experience — amazing job, Kristine!”
“For those taking care of a homebound person, I want to share how CVS helped me, especially the clerks and manages who understand the needs of the homebound, take care of my parents with all of their health needs when their own health care provider would not help In short, for dementia, they have "Bright Strong" with Ginko Biloba, and Choline, though not a cure, but it helps, and is much cheaper than stronger brands, which may be more effective, but are very expensive to use daily. Be aware that dementia can influence one's inability to walk or transfer. As my parents ability declined, CVS had canes, walkers, wheelchairs and commodes that were very helpful For skin cancer, "Skin Tag Oil", again, not a cure, but seemed to prevent my mom's skin cancer from growing, which became an open wound about 1 inch diameter, and keeping a stasis. It may be the ingredient "Thuja Occidentalis" made from conifer oils, that has anti-cancer properties. With this wound care with saline solution, sometimes hydrogen peroxide, which deeply cleanses and may have anti-cancer properties, yet, too much can prevent healthy skin from regrowing, and iodine, which may have anti-cancer properties, with rolled gauze used as a bandage and hold with clear or cloth tape. If wound is more serious then use gauze pads or adhesive bandages. For incontinence, 3x4 ft thick cloth pads which are washable were helpful at night and as padding on the wheelchair, and adult undergarments, be it Depends or the CVS brand worked well For bed sores, if minimal, like skin irritation, then Caladryl or the CVS brand are good, but they can get worse quickly and become an open wound, then use Caloseptine, a thick cream, which works well, and maybe cover with an adhesive bandage For bowel movement issues, to keep things regular and avoid constipation or diarrhea, daily probiotic yogurt, like Acitiva, with a good fiber cereal like Grape Nuts, which taste good together, and a spoonful of Metamucil (try different spoon sizes to find what works for the individual) helps a lot. For difficulty in urination, or prostate issues, especially if typical medication from doctors loses its ability, they say the issue is that the prostate has grown with old age and limits the urethra, which is true, but there are natural remedies that deal with urinary tract and kidney infections that result, and for women, not necessarily related to the prostate, but other factors. So, Saw Palmetto, one pill per day and maybe work up to two or three per day, find out what works for the individual, three may be too strong, but Saw Palmetto, I found, going back a century, made from the Palm Plant, has been used to decrease prostate gland, regulating the change in hormones that occur in old age, that cause the increase. Also, difficulty in urination is not only because of growth of the prostate, but of the resulting urine that remains in the gall bladder unable to expel, and can cause infection in the Urinary Tract System, including the kidneys 100 % cranberry juice (most are only 25%, so look at the label), about 4 oz per day and 8 cups purified water or 600mls water per day helps. Also, one or two garlic pills and maybe one tumeric pill per day helps prevent bacterial infections in the urinary tract system Again, thank you to CVS and all the staff who provide this service to those with health problems. I write this as a summary of online resources such as Webmed where doctors and homebound people give advice”
“Stopped in at this Chevron station one evening to refuel the rental car to ready it for return the next morning to Hertz at the Rental Car Center at SFO. This gas station was fairly close to my hotel and well lit. Paid at the pump with a credit card, refueled, and was on my way! #Chevron”
“This was a convenient location to top off my rental car before dropping it off at the SFO airport. In my brief visit, all the pumps appeared to be working, and I had no problems paying with a credit card. Sounds like your mileage may vary, but my recent stop was painless.”
“I want to give Nil and Rita a shout out. They went above and beyond to help me find the items I needed at Walgreens. They were kind, courteous, and genuinely friendly throughout the entire experience. Their professionalism and willingness to help made shopping easy and enjoyable. This is one of the best Walgreens locations I’ve visited because of the outstanding customer service they provide. Thank you, Nil and Rita, for making such a positive difference!”

I have gone to the Walgreens on 3rd Street multiple times for orders and they are never ready. When I go to the Walgreens in Burlingame, they are always very prompt and helpful.”

“Went to Walgreens Burlingame/Broadway Store to buy a birthday present and wrapping paper and also had a rather complicated return. Darlene was the cashier that helped me and she was wonderful! She was professional, very friendly, very calm and a good listener. She took care of my transaction quickly and I was on my way. My return transaction could have been made complicated and stressful with the wrong clerk. Darlene was the best! Hope she continues to work at the Burlingame/Broadway store. Maybe she can pass her excellence in customer service on to her co-workers!!”
“Having just moved to Burlingame from out of state, this was my first time in. I had called in my prescriptions and they was ready for me. It was mid-afternoon and I had just one customer in front of me. Within a couple of minutes it was my turn and the person behind the glass was cheerful and helpful. So, so far, so good!”
