“New owners have an emphasis on smoking/vaping and alcohol. Made it just like the other two shops they own; but with sandwiches. My sandwiches have been ok so far. Update: Been back a half dozen times. The new owners are great people. They are friendly and the food area is clean to my untrained eye. I'm gonna keep coming here. I don't blame them for selling what sells.”

“May go to local gas station. Quick service in the shop as well if you're paying cash. Prices are fairly average for in town and even though it's a smaller station I always find a place to pull up without waiting. I appreciate that the trash barrels are never overflowed and there's clearly blue windshield fluid readily available.”

“Me and my husband are from Erie, PA and stopped here while vacationing in Maine on our way to Kennebunkport. The buffalo chicken pizza looked appealing so I got us a slice and it was AMAZING. I agree with another reviewer, the pizza is better than pizza shops that specialize in pizza!! We eat our fair share of pizza, and loved so much we stopped on our way back to grab a pizza to take back to where we were staying. Great hidden gem. Staff was also super friendly which was wonderful!”

“I was in the mood for a snack and I happened to be on the road so when I saw this Circle K location I decided to stop and see what they had.I had never been to a Circle K before and I was pretty impressed with what I saw here. First of all the store was immaculate. The shelves and the products on them had no dust. Even the restroom was very clean. The doors to the beverage cooler were clean with no smudges or streaks on them.The product variety was very good and they had plenty of candy, bakery items, chips, chocolate, fruity snacks, beverages and more.I decided on a candy bar so I grabbed what I wanted and took it to the register area to pay. There was nobody in line so I was waited on immediately. The cashier was very nice and processed my transaction efficiently.Definitely stop by here for all of your convenience store needs when you are in the area.”

“I’ve been working in the area for a while now and Sam and his wife are so attentive when it comes to customer service. They made me fresh coffee every time and it’s always super tasty (try the Jamaican me crazy one). The store has a very good selection of beer and snacks and it is always very clean. Definitely my go to convenience store in the area. Sam is one of the best employees I’ve ever encountered and he always goes above and beyond! Check this place out if you’re in the area (they have a good selection of lotto tickets and vapes too!)”

I didn't get her name, but she deserves a shout-out by your team on these pages for being a SUPER Employee! Hopefully you can recognize this great team member! Keith”

“Unfortunately I smoke cigarettes & due to the high cost I shop around. 7B has been the lowest (even cheaper than the smoke shop for a while now) They have a really good section of nicotine vapes as well- tons of brands, flavors, rechargeable, disposable. A huge selection of wraps, papers, and smoking accessories. They have a really good mix of candy, snacks, chips, ice cream, & soda all the time. They also carry a ton of different beer. Some frozen food, house hold items, and more. This place is literally a one stop shop. Parking a bit of a challenge. Let's talk about the local legal working at the bottle return- Micky himself runs that whole bottle return on his own and has for many many years. He literally can do it with his eyes closed. He's a honest man counting the bottles out loud. He's keeps the place super clean and he's been there so long. Most people go there because of Micky. Even know he's getting old and his health doesn't seem the best he's there 5 or 6 days a week. Like I said he runs the bottle return part on his own for a long time now & takes a lot of pride in doing so. He probably has more regular customers than most restaurants.”

“I was in Wells with my family to go to a family Christmas Eve party @ my Aunt's house & my nephews wanted a slushy so we stopped her on our way home. My older nephew ran in to grab two & redeem his scratch tickets so I didn't get to go into the store. But my nephew was in & out real quick for what he had done, so to me that means service was fast!!”

“Victoria is the nicest, most helpful pharmacist who goes out of her way for her customers. She is always pleasant, even under pressure and even when working all by herself, covering the phones and the counter and filling prescriptions. I go out of my way just to pick up from this location because the customer service here vs Sanford CVS is night and day. I have never had a single bad experience with any of the employees in the Biddeford pharmacy and I have been picking up there for years. Thank you so much to all of you for your empathy and kindness. Some of your customers really need that at a time when they are going through difficult times with illness/mental struggles. It means a lot.”
