Convenience Stores near Carnelian Bay, CA

“When you go to 7-Eleven, you don't normally expect great service and customer care. Usually you need a quick bite, a slurpee for a hot day or some gum. However, when I walked into this 7-eleven with my girlfriend, the owner ran to hold the door for us and let us in. This is unmatched service at a 7-eleven. We then asked him if they sold candles. He then escorted us to the aisle with candles and this was just the beginning. He told us all about the candles, including their usage for both fragrance and lighting. He said most people used this specific candle for its delightful fragrance but it could also provide lighting for a candlelight dinner. Who would have known about the many uses of candles? All in all, we happily purchased the candle and made our way across the street for our candlelight dinner. The best 7-eleven I have been been to in my entire life. Better service than most restaurants.”

“Had a flat from a pothole on a snow storm day. They were closed on Sunday, but first thing Monday I went in to see if they can get a new tire on. At first they said they didn't have the size for my car so then I started calling other places to find somewhere that has it. Right as I was pulling out of the chevron to get on my way, the guy ran up to my car and told me to wait a second while they double and triple check. They ended having it and were able to put it in under 30 mins so we were on our way! Appreciate their help after a stressful weekend.”

“So we were stuck in Tahoe over the Christmas weekend and we stopped to get some gas here at the Kings Beach Chevron. They were the only gas station in Kings Beach to have any gas available. Staff was super friendly and enforced the Face mask policy. So just a heads up make sure to have your mask readily available before you enter the store. By the way they do not have any bathrooms that they allow the customers to use and advise you to use the bathroom across the street.”

“Had the amazing chance to meet Tina working here the other day when she helped me check the tire pressure on my motorcycle. I had asked at another business in town for some help and was rudely turned away…Tina seriously made my day when she was able to find a small tire pressure pen they had under the desk…sometimes it really is the small things! I’ll be back here every time I visit town after this!”

“Smallest Rite Aid I have ever been to, but the service is big! The pharmacist is very kind and helpful. Checkout ladies are always in good spirits! Occasionally it seems everyone forgets to show up to work...I deducted only one star because I have never experienced a sour attitude there once all summer! They have randomly cute gifts and I always find something for my little niece and nephew!”

“I recently went on a road trip and stopped at this location. I would just want to point out how super clean and well organized this place is kept. And of course, you must grab some of their freshly baked chocolate chip cookies with their amazing coffee! This place will be my regular pit stop from now on.”

“This review is specifically for the lady at the front in the morning. She was just so freaking nice and cordial and friendly. One of those people who just really enjoys helping people in big ways and small and interacting with her was a total pleasure. She just exuded a glowing, positive aura. Great way to start the day. Wish I caught her name just so I could mention her here by name. Solid employee. Solid person. Take care of her. She's just plain awesome ? ?”

“I cannot speak to fuel at all from here, but what I can say is that I often stop in for a snack or cup of coffee and just WOW! If you are in a pinch for something convenient to make (like a little grocery store), this is a perfect spot to grab it on the go. The staff is also very helpful and friendly. Now for the coffee. I cannot say enough about it. They have a machine that will grind and brew you a fresh cup of coffee, and the coffee beans are good! I will go out of my way for this coffee often, it's that good. You can pick your size, leave room for cream or whatever else you want, and with the coffee places around town being spotty as to when or if they will be open, this is a fantastic alternative for us! Thank you Fast Lane for your offerings.”

“I just really want to buy some snacks I I'm Jessica am 31 years old am very pretty young lady that is beautiful as always but I love to enjoy myself to eat the best food of all time”

“Guess what - I have conducted a taste test of the Bean and Cheese burrito against Tina's, El Monterey. The 7-11 one wins! The others tortilla wrap was dry and cracked, El Monterey filling was tasteless, Tina's was a little better but the filling was goop as compared to 7-11 which has a nice mouth feel. No wonder they are always sold out when I go to 7-11. TEAM- stock more damnit!”

“"Sachin at the Kingsbeach 7-11 is a shining star! His exceptional customer service, warm smile, and attentive nature make every visit a pleasure. Sachin is always efficient, friendly, and goes above and beyond to ensure customers feel welcome and supported. His knowledge of products and services is impressive, and he consistently resolves issues with a positive attitude. Sachin is a valuable asset to the 7-11 team and a credit to the Kingsbeach community. Keep up the fantastic work, Sachin - you truly make a difference!"”

“So when I'm working up in Truckee, I always have my morning coffee. As the day goes by, the coffee gets cold and I usually stop in the 7-Eleven or the other one just to use the microwave. I am always greeted warmly, the workers understand I'm not there to spend money but just to keep my coffee in the microwave. A allow this happily. Such a good service for not actually spending any money there.I'm having so many kids, I really don't like the prices of convenient stores... But that is what they are convenient. Easier to stop by a 7-Eleven then have to go inside a grocery store. Other than that I've been enjoying 7-Elevens since I was a kid and completely enamored with the big gulp, the super big gulp, the super super giant big gulp lol.”

“My husband and I stopped in to purchase some items and ended up finding everything we needed, including scissors to open one of the said items lol! I would HIGHLY recommend this nice location, located in Tahoe City! They deserve more stars!! The staff member helping us was very personable and the store was well organized and stocked! We'll definitely be returning to purchase more items next time we stay somewhere without the basic toiletries! SYOY! :-)”

“Tyson at CVS genuinely stands out for his exceptional customer service and warm character. He consistently goes out of his way to assist with a smile, making each visit to the store much more pleasant. His knowledge, efficiency, and willingness to help highlight his dedication to customer satisfaction. It's not just the help he provides but also the positive and friendly manner in which he does it that makes a difference. Tyson's approach not only makes shopping easier but also adds a personal touch that's greatly appreciated.”

“I love that almost every CVS has everything set up the same way, with items being where you are familiar with them locally. I’m 500 miles from home and needed three things: children’s toothpaste, peanut butter M&M’s, and lube. Don’t misunderstand my needs, the lube is for taking our infants temperature with a rectal thermometer. Inflation hasn’t helped anybody in terms of pricing and CVS is no different, but at least I got in and out in under five minutes.”

“I just have to say--the staff are exceptionally friendly and kind and gave my dog Cookie monster treats when she came in ?
They also have a variety of items that you could use on a road trip or going to the lake, a nice little pharmacy there.
It's located in the Safeway shopping center. There's a subway sandwich store next to it and a few other shops around the bend.
I can't say it enough their staff members are outstanding with service and friendliness...”
