“Best run gas station I've ever frequented. Employees are always nice and efficient..Always say hello and have a great day. Store is always clean and well stocked.”
“The staff in Webster store were very nice since I made a mistake in booking wrong site and they helped me anyway with the shots I ordered 😀 and I will always go back!”
“Was a walkin and practitioner had me in her office in under 10 minutes. She was super compassionate and knowledgeable. Was able to walk over and get my script filled in under another 10 at the pharmacy. Only in town for the day but had a wonderful experience all things considered (not feeling well). Would absolutely recommend this spot. All the people/ staff were considerate and compassionate.”
“My absolute favorite gas station in St. Louis. Convenient and fast service with friendly staff. Their liquor section is pretty large and they're always helpful.”
“Received the MMR vaccine at the Minute Clinic from a very nice lady. Only wished I didn't have to travel that far from the Clayton site, where the shot ran out and I wasn't informed on time.”
“Love my local CVS store. Everyone is so helpful, especially Kennedy. She's the best! Now if my emailed coupons would actually work and transfer to my card, that would be a huge plus. I have had several lately that have been useless.”
“Has anyone else noticed that 7-Elevens are becoming rarer and rarer these days? At least around the St. Louis area, starting around the time of the pandemic and continuing to the present ,there are so many 7-Elevens that had been operating in the same spot for decades, only to one day be closed forever with seemingly no notice, And with no new 7-Elevens being put in anywhere to help replace all the ones we've lost. Now, I have no idea why we have lost so many of our 7-Elevens, but I do know that it makes me really appreciate the few we have left. Case in point : this 7-Eleven, located on Bennington near the beginning of the Page extension. Right in the middle of possibly the highest density of rental apartments to be found in St. Louis County, anchoring a strip of retail which also includes a laundromat and a bar (hello, multitasking!) this7-Eleven remains an integral part of the community here, allowing new generations to experience the joys of delicious iced coffee on tap that doesn't cost three times as much as it should. So go ahead, stop in and get that slurpee. You'll be glad you did.”
“I needed to get passport photos taken ASAP, thankfully Dina was at the photo department and she professionally and thoroughly made sure that our photos were the right dimensions and perfect for our applications. I would highly recommend getting your passport photos taken at this specific location as Dina did a great job; efficiently, and quickly!”
