“I highly recommend this location for anyone who loves Speedway! The entire team there are top notch. Every employee there is the nicest and most helpful. Tonight I had some minor car trouble and had to wait until my tow truck came out. The two ladies on shift were so nice and caring. Melissa kept asking did I need any help because it was sweltering hot today. She brought some cups of ice out for me and my daughter, she offered for us to come in and wait in the central air until the tow came and she also had four different guys come and look at my car to see if they could help me with the issue. It got resolved and I didn't even need my road side assistance! She even offered to make a call to get me the help I needed.. Layla was so patient and covered the customers inside while Melissa kept checking on me. I just want to give a shout out to those ladies! They showed great concern for me and my daughter and I'm so thankful. I've never had an issue with this location and I've been going there for over 8 years. Keep up the great work guys! Definitely 5 stars from me.”
“I love this place! Convenient location and there are always great deals if you have the 7-11 app. The food is always good and freshly made. Linda is the best and even when there's a long line they nice through it quickly. I changed jobs 2 months ago and wish I could've taken this 711 with me to be by the new place. :D”
“I haven't been to the 7-Eleven in years so I thought I'd stop by. The inside of the store is clean. This one has more than meat pizza... it has meat pizza with veggies They had my order out the door super quick & with no hassle. The pizza is actually better than it was years ago. It has a sweater sauce now & the crust seems lighter.”
“Y'all deserve a shout-out. Been commuting from the city. Had hot hot food on the grills and a clean place to piss. McDonald's can gtfo for locking it's lobby”
“Exceptionally Great customer service from Rubin D. As soon as I walked in he was one of the most pleasant people in customer service that I have come across in a very long time. In and out very effective communication and personable service. I come to this gas station every chance I get and he is always pleasant. The team is great as well.. Keep up the great work!!!!”
“The Walgreen’s on 95th & Pulaski always has what I’m looking for. Their employees are also always very kind and genuinely helpful. I get all of my prescription meds there and there is rarely a delay. I also have started to get my Flu, pneumonia and COVID vaccines there — it’s easy and convenient.”

“I used to go to that other store that begins with a “ W” but there is always a wait and employees act like they don’t want to help you . I don’t have that problem at Walgreens on 87th Kedzie. Even at drive thru it’s a quick and painless process. Employees are friendly. I have even gotten flu , Covid shots there and the process is efficient. Walgreens works for me.”
“Being a Walmart Plus member it is so nice to be able to get 10 cents discount on fuel. There are only certain stations where you can get this discount, and ExxonMobil is one of them. This process is so quick and easy using your cellphone!”
