Circle K in Helen is known for its wonderful staff who are helpful, kind, and way too nice to people, even strangers. They are amazing, have a great attitude, and make the experience pleasant. Customers note the staff know their job, know everything, and care about the people who make the town work. The business is praised for having the best coffee in Helen, with its fresh ground coffee being the clear winner over local shops. The snacks, drinks, and sandwiches hit the spot when hungry, especially when other places close early. Everything purchased is in-date. The staff are also helpful for getting ideas on local things to do and sharing stories. They efficiently get customers stocked up and on their way.
There was a long line. Had to wait 10 min to checkout.

Open 24 hours so was perfect for a good cup of coffee before hiking Blood Mountain at 5:45 am. Friendly, a little confusing for me on the getting into the parking lot but really it’s easy- the parking lot is on the right side of the store. The gas pumps are directly in front of the store.

Staff is very friendly and store is always well stocked and clean. Love that 2 extra gas pumps added recently.
