“Where has this place been. We have driven on I95 for several years but always go to the service area before or after this one. Big mistake. This service area although has the same stores and fast food areas like the others, just seemed to be more clean and organized than the others. Smaller reat area, but the atmosphere was better. Not sure how I can say that, but it just seemed better.”
“I used to live in this area but now I’m in Houston. Came back to visit and tried the food here after 2 years, the food was amazing and the service was 10/10! Definitely worth coming back. Great food , staff and very clean.”
“Wow - this may be the greatest gas station and convenience store out there. It all boils down to the manager - he is one of the nicest people I've ever met. Extraordinarily professional, kind, and engaged. They completely rebuilt the garage into a top quality bodega. It's clean, bright, and has an excellent selection of beverages. Thank you!”
“I stopped here on my way east on the Merritt Parkway during a long drive from Florida to Maine. I needed a rest break and I preferred combining rest and getting gas when I could to reduce the number of stops. I looked at the credit card reader first, and a small sign said insert card and follow instructions on screen. I put it in and the instructions said Please pay inside. And the card reader wouldn't release my credit card. I assume it locks because so many people don't allow time for the chip to be read before removing it. But meanwhile I couldn't pump so I went inside. The young guy at the counter was pleasant and helpful. He came out with me, saying sometimes the lock keeps the card longer than it is supposed to. But by the time we got there, it released it. We went back inside I prepaid for $60 worth of gas. With the oil companies grabbing profits and the state charging a large tax, that didn't even fill my tank! But I had my gas and the use of their clean rest room, so with the good service, I would go back if need be.”
“All the employees I met so far are so nice and courteous. The coffee is freshly brewed. The bathroom is sparkling clean. This team is doing a great job. Keep it up!”
“I've never used the pharmacy here. I've sworn off using walgreen Pharmacies because the lack of customer service seems to be consistent along the chain. But I love walgreen, the store! This store, in particular, has always been a pleasure to go to. It's one of the cleanest I've been to, and the customer service always seems on par. I've never encountered an enormous line with a lack of cashiers. I'm usually able to go in and out quickly. Why can't they all be like this? Is it just the neighborhood? I'll put up some pictures and videos next time I'm there.”
“since i moved here a few months ago, i have had nothing but great service, the staff there are really nice, store is a little cramped though same with parking but thats out of their control”
“I had a really wonderful experience here, I got the runaround from the CVS down the street about my photos, and the guy at the desk here went above and beyond to get me my order on time and prioritize it.”
“I always receive great service from Walter. He always greets everyone as soon as they walk in, is friendly and welcoming, and provides excellent customer service every time.”
“This is an exceptional CVS, especially compared to i the one near M &T Bank. People here are friendly, sometimes greeting you as you walk in. It's easy to find what you want, is well-organized, and people there want to help you find what you're looking for. Jerry is especially helpful with the Photo Dept. a pro.”
“Just left here, place was clean and friendly, I got a bit overly excited about the new jolly rancher slushy machine. My cashier Markell was very friendly and pleasant to deal with. I love Cumberland but some you go in and you can tell the Staff/Management doesn't care much. This location is one of the better ones.”
“Stopped in to get a flu shot and it was quick, easy and pain free. This is a very busy pharmacy but it was very quick to get in and out. My one gripe with this site is that parking can be quite a challenge. The employees were very nice and quick to assist.”
“I had a really wonderful experience here, I got the runaround from the CVS down the street about my photos, and the guy at the desk here went above and beyond to get me my order on time and prioritize it.”
“This is one of the cleanest pharmacy stores I've been to in a while. Wide aisles, clear signage, well stocked. I'm not a fan of cvs, and I haven't been for decades. But this one was a breath of fresh air. Keep in mind I was in there just for one item, but it was fairly empty on this rainy Saturday, so I walked around a bit. Picked up a few more small things and checked out pretty quickly. It's amazing the difference between a store in fairfield versus the very same store in big city bridgeport. I mean, this store has carpet, and it looked like it's brand new and vacuumed. I wanted to lay on it and make snow angels! Why are standards so different? Get the same quality managers in our stores that they have.”
“i come here every morning for breakfast and ALWAYS HAVE A GREAT EXPERIENCE . i always leave satisfied with my purchase and with my customer service and its CLEAN ALL THE TIME ... i tell all my friends if your in the area and need anything quick go here from gas to food they got you covered and i wont spend my money anywhere else in fairfield. im in there 5 days a week for breakfast now ill be there for breakfast and lunch”
“First time at this gas station, went in side and got some lottery tickets, the staff printed my tickets wrong so that pissed my off then I got some gas not much to say except the place was clean”
“Got my daughter's flu shot here. It was expedited officially and quickly. She's only three and the person who did the shot was very kind and patient. A+”
“We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Pharmacist Mohammad Al-Khatib for his outstanding service. He is always helpful, courteous, and treats every customer with the utmost respect and care. His professionalism and dedication are truly commendabl”
