“We were always customers at the Holbrook CVS and hated it. The Holbrook location was always too busy and backed up, the pharmacy department was down right nasty, and we just had enough. We met the pharmacist at this CVS in patchogue during Covid when we got vaccinated. We started getting all our vaccines here. We noticed right away that he was always pleasant and seemed to go the extra mile for his customers. He reminds me of the old fashioned pharmacists that always watch out for their customers, knows everyone by name and is always happy to help and give good advice. He made us feel watched out for. We were happy to switch all our prescriptions to this location and it's been a pleasure since. Unfortunately, in the new year our insurance started forcing us to go somewhere else (not covering CVS at all anymore), and I was so upset by it. I'm hoping that will change and we can come back here!”
“Was dying for Chicharrón and I found this place on Main St. in Patchogue! You walk in, there's all this fresh authentic food in trays for you to choose from, yellow rice with vegetables, shrimp with rice, Pernil, etc., The staff is so gracious and patient while you choose what you'd like to take home or eat in. There are baked goods and grocery items as well. I'll be back for sure the food was so delicious at a reasonable price! Would recommend!”
“The best 7-Eleven on the island! Always clean, fresh, and welcoming. Ana and Michelle are always attentive and provide excellent customer service. We truly appreciate you both! ❤”
“Country deli with Franky made us the best 2 sandwich and wrap my wife had. They had almost everything you need. I felt so comfortable and felt like I was a kid in the 80's back then. It was a real NY DELI. Not no PUBLIX DELI SOMEWHERE ELSE. This is the REAL DEAL. Come here wr ur kids or whoever and get anything u want. I even got an empanada. Thank you so much franky! I'll be back w my family.”
“A great local store it's really a hidden gem. They have everything you'd expect in a small store. But they also make their own breads cakes. Have delicious ?? hot foods and everyone pays the same prices..”
“My breakfast sandwich was really amazing ..2 eggs ,over easy ,bacon cheese,salt, pepper , ketchup , butter , hottsauce, probably the best in a while ..if u like it that way everything including the roll was fresh and definitly hit the spot..thanks I also purchased two winter sullied hats here that I love”
“It's amazing they've added delivery due to COVID. People inside are personable. Rest room is always clean. Store is clean. Pumps still don't have a chip reader (no Apple Pay!!!). But It seems they are giving themselves a facelift with a new canopy on self serve pumps. But still a long road ahead. Building has too many cracks and stained ceiling tiles prove leak in the roof. I should stop by again in the future may be in 6 to 8 months, to see the progress. So yes, it is worth coming again.”
“I was going to give it 3 stars, but then I read the other two reviews and thought this gas station folks need some boost. I had somewhat similar issue with credit card transaction at the pump and then I called the station. They explained, that the cards companies put a 24hr hold on the card till the transaction goes through and 24hr later it was all good.”
“Very good 7-11, I just wish they had the older Microwave. With the smaller one, I need to lay my coffee on the side. Their milk selection is great!!! They ran out of the no-calorie Vanilla Pump, but nobody is perfect?”
“Always a pleasure going into my neighborhood 7-11. They are wonderful. We always have a laugh an a smile when I'm there. I'm there almost every night.”
“Great experience shopping here especially for a 7 eleven, employees are great, quick, respectful and knowledgeable. This location is stocked very well, coffee is always fresh, slurpee is perfect. Love this store”
“The gentleman behind the counter working the graveyard was very helpful! Sometimes you'd expect someone working overnight's, wouldn't Be as helpful, but he was helpful with a smile.”
“I just want to say you're pharmacy personnel are exceptional!! They are friendly, and so efficient. My special kudos to Barb and Donna and the rest of the pharmacy staff.”
“Walgrens pharmacy staff are unbelievably helpful. The floor team of manager Eric ans Laura J are do kind and helpful Good selvtion of items with good sales”
“I go to East Patchogue and the manger Alex is always helpful even though it must be hard because most days there is no help so it looks like a lot falls on him even then he's always help full.”
