“Perfect grocery store for college students who want good beer and exotic snacks. Definitely not an affordable option for most groceries, but their well curated beer, cider, and seltzer selection is a draw. Great employees as well.”
“I am very lucky to live so close to such an awesome shop. They have a great selection of food and drink at great prices and every staff member I've interacted with there has been friendly and helpful.”
“As a student center the views are unparalleled. Choices for food and snacks are also incredible including many Asian vendors. Prices for all Northwestern merchandise being sold at the student store are exorbited but I think that's to be expected at any modern University these days.”

“I’ve consistently had great experiences at this CVS Pharmacy. The staff are helpful, patient, and take the time to make sure questions are answered clearly, especially at the pharmacy counter. Prescriptions are handled efficiently, and even when things are busy, the team remains calm and professional. It’s reassuring to have a pharmacy where you feel taken care of and not rushed. Reliable, convenient, and well run. Highly recommend.”

“It's always great to visit Evanston. I use buy candy before & after school at the gas station when I attended Chute M.S in the mids 90s. Bring back so much memories.”
“I love that they got them chips and dranks that you only can get in a neighborHOOD store most of ya, should not be in a big city mile radius of. That priorly scripted is not what makes it a fresh kinda like "Spike Lee Joint"They got volume of stuff your fresher, more city acclaimed, and straight up cooler (then the others) your best Aunt and/or Uncle prefers to munch down on or have a sip of. Chips to Alcohol to papers to a real neighborhood respected community member behind the counter; that always remembers your name and is funky enough to always be sincerely happy to have a quick (20-58 sec.) twenty to fifty eight second quick session, grind or rap with. {In proper English; that is rather refreshing, and if you a real ..., no need to trip [be nervous] or be on guard or ready to parley when you in this neighborhood staple, especially when your peep (or your older siblings) went to High School with is behind the counterThey take Food stamps FYI.FOR REALZ: They carry "MUNCH KING" 'Plantain Strips with Sea Salt'They WIN”

“I’m not exaggerating when I say this is my favorite store. I’ve gone every day for nearly 5 years. The people are great, they remember you and stock what you like, when they round a total they round DOWN - and I could go on and on. Don’t let the no frills fool you, this place has almost everything you could ask for.”
“I stopped here to get gas and buy Bananas and they didn’t sell bananas so the lady gave me hers. As I needed one for the swim meet. Little things go a long way!”

“The young man and a bit older gentleman that work here are incredible. The store is always nice and clean. It’s not these two hard working guys’ fault but the bums that hang out in front of this place, especially the white kid with the mustache need to go but the only people who could fix that are the police run by the city council, who’ve let downtown Evanston turn into a cesspool of vagrants and retail vacancies. I’m consistently harassed, mocked, and threatened by these drunks every time I’m near the store.”
“This is hands down one of the best gas stations in the area! The employees are always so friendly, welcoming, and ready to help with anything you need. You can really tell they care about their customers. The customer service is top-notch — they go above and beyond every time.
The store itself has a great variety of products — from everyday essentials to snacks, drinks, and more. It’s always clean, well-stocked, and organized, which makes shopping here a pleasant experience.
Overall, I couldn’t recommend this place enough. If you’re looking for a gas station with honest service, great people, and everything you need in one stop, this is it!”

“Not jewel, but has Tabasco needs and such covered, plus a few basics…it’s like 7/11 but family owned. There is a bag fee if you want one, but that’s just Evanston as a whole. No plastic and a bag is more than $.25 a bag.Same at jewel.”

“I love this store!! I live 2 blocks from a different 7 Eleven but don't go there because of their attitude and rudeness. At this 7-Eleven you feel welcome. You are greeted when you enter, thanked when you leave. JP,Satich, and Mac have always been helpful, kind, and patient with me and other customers I've observed. The store is immaculate and it is rare that someone is not cleaning something when I go there. We ran into our upstairs neighbor here. She comes for the same reason, friendly courteous service! The food is always fresh and tasty. I am booked on their Poor boy sandwiches, all the sandwiches are good but the Poorboys are the best!! They sell everything you need except liquor. Shop here and be treated like a valued customer!!!”
“THANK YOU FRANCES IN PHARMACY YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH YOU HELPED ME AND SAVED ME! Also Ingotrangive a shout out to dude usually at drive through with long dreads your always so kind. The rest meh! I appreciate you all aren’t standing around doing nothing. I feel for you on how exhausting it must be so busy. But the lines are redunkulous and I for sure blame the store manager or corporate for not coming up with a better system with all the millions spent on high end corporate people!

“For all the times I've walked into Walgreens, this is the 1st time I'm leaving a review. I'd rate most of my experiences to a solid "meh" until today!! I just met the most amazing Maria! I was mumbling to myself about sparking water. She overheard me and walked me to where it was. I'm pretty sure that she was on a break. It's hot out. I'm thirsty. Having some water is like winning the lotto. I walk up to the register in a long line and guess who is running to open another register?! Maria! She notices a Nick in a water bottle I was purchasing for my niece. It was the last one. She asked for me .. without me asking!.. if I could get a discount. I did! And then to finish it all off .. she leaves me with a tip.. make your Walgreens purchases online and then schedule for pick-up. Chances are high on cost savings... there you have it. Maria at Walgreens in Evanston is the bomb!!”

“A very clean and well-organized store. I love the feel of it. One thing that I must, must, comment on is their buffalo wings. Although it is on the pricier side, this 7-11 has surprisingly the best wings I've had in a long while. It does not have an overwhelming flavor but has an amazing texture. Would recommend trying their buffalo wings.”
“Nicely kept and even has an electric car charger outside which is nice for those who have them. The variety is good and I've not seen this location as cluttered as others and the store associates are always extremely nice!”
“I hate the kiosk for the pharmacy - but I don't blame the workers (and please don't if you go yourself, they don't have a say. I see way too many people yelling at them for no reason). The pharmacy staff, though, have been great towards me! Sometimes prescriptions have been messed up or a refill order got lost, but they have always been more than helpful with getting things fixed!”
“I came here for the first time not too long ago and had the best experience! The staff is super friendly and attentive! You should DEFINITELY come here for whatever you need! They have high quality products! Ask for Charlie the next time you go!”
