“hands-down one of the best local spots in the area! The food is always fresh and delicious, the prices are very fair for what you get, and I really appreciate how clean and well-stocked the store is.”
“The staff are super friendly and always make you feel welcome. Prices are fair, and their fresh sandwiches are honestly so good! Feels like a cozy neighborhood spot you can count on.”
“This place is a local gem. I heard Kaz Kitchen had changed ownership recently and decided to check it out since it has been a few months of disappointment with what was in the shelves. The new owner was so kind and immediately wanted to know what I was looking for and promised to stock it up for me. A couple days later, she had gotten exactly what I was looking for, and she's kept it in stock since! Not to mention the meat pies and lasagnas and desserts she makes! I always make sure to get a lunch or snack while there. Excellent cornerstore for Guigues Avenue.”
“My friends and I have been coming to this store for 6 years now. The owner Hati is a super funny and friendly man who makes great jokes and always makes me feel welcome. The store also has a great selection of candy and other foods such as cereal and drinks. Overall this store offers a great experience and I will definitely keep coming here.”
“Now named Red Rock Convenience & Cafe under new management, this place is awesome. Great selection of household basics and the cafe has really decent food. Really kind staff as well!”
“This is more than a convenience store - it is a part of the community. The owner cares and works diligently to keep the place clean and always treats customers with dignity and respect. All staff in the store follow the owners lead. They work to bring in product that people want and need. The convenience is the 24hr operation and just being there when you need it. What makes it great is the dedication to customers and community.”
“Absolutely love this little convince store. Everyone is super friendly there, and it’s so conveniently located. I try to stop there as often as possible, because I feel so welcome whenever I pop in. The store has been open for a surprisingly long time, and I for one hope to keep it open for many more years to come! Thanks for the exceptional service!”
“Love this place for Chinese groceries. I think some of you folks are confused cause products imported from China print the date of production on them not the expiry date”
“EDIT - The store has been purchased by new owners and is now selling baked goods in addition to what they had before
A couple weeks ago i saw a note from a government agency (can't remember which one) posted saying the owner allowed the business license to expire. The owner also stopped ordering new items a few months ago so I doubt it was an accident letting it expire. I do not believe this place will be opening any time soon.”
“This is my ideal store because they open early in the morning and close late at night. This is a best convenience store in the neighbourhood. Some grocery items are little expensive that i can understand because of convenience and if i need urgent cash then the ATM service is also available. Good grocery collection . Best staff always have smile on there face which makes my day whenever I visit there.”

“UOTTAWA STUDENTS. IF YOU NEED TO GO SOMEWHERE PLEASE GO HERE. prices are kinda high but they're still wayyy better than the prices of circle k off campus. its usually just some student working there so they're super chill and friendly. unlike some other convenience stores in the area, they actually trust you walking around the store alone because they realize how unlikely it is that some adult would bother stealing a piece of chocolate or something.”

“Like many corner stores in older neighborhoods this one is a bit sketchy. I've personally witnessed a shouting match there. There's also a Cryptocurrency ATM which is a bit weird, and they have an AC unit that blows hot air out of the building and into your face as you go up the stairs to the front door.
As for the actual store, it likely has what you need. The Lady who I usually see running the store is pleasant and I usually don't find myself waiting to check out. Could be better, but I'll take it over not having a store.”
“My experience with stopping into this store was amazing. My mom and uncle go here a lot and have only nice things to say. Kind of a small place, but they have a lot of options.”
“I used to live near and went here lots! Every worker was so kind to me and welcomed me everytime. I had to move due to my manipulative roommate so I won't be coming here much but this is by far one of the only reasons I will miss living near there. They became family ❤ best quickie!”

“My go-to gas station when I’m nowhere near Costco. You’re able to redeem PC Optimum points at the pump if you choose to, there’s a car wash available as well. Staff seem friendly most days although there’s no need to enter unless you’re there for something other than gas.”
“This Quickie was recently renovated and it looks great inside. It's bright and clean and best of all, it has ICEE! Four flavours of ICEE! ICEE is the best brand of slushie ever IMO. But if you like Slush Puppies, they have them too, 6 flavours. And the F'real milkshakes. It's convenience store drink heaven! Staff are super nice too. Best Quickie ever!”
“Amazing service, ordered off of Uber eats and when I needed a replacement for items that were unavailable (just the homemade fudge) the woman that works there called me and was very sweet and understanding and informative of what else she had to replace it. Awesome place, with awesome treats!!!!”

“I went here for the first time today. I have to say it looks absolutely magical, to me anyways. Mostly from nostalgia and my love of Tim Hortons. I didn’t actually go to the Tim Hortons inside the store though. I got a froster and a f’real milkshake.When I saw the frosters sign on the store, I almost felt like I could cry tears of joy. You see, the Mac’s Milk near my home in Barrhaven shut down about a year ago. That made me pretty sad because I have so many memories of it. It was one of the first places I would walk alone to as a child. I’d go and get frosters with my friends and family. It was a big part of my childhood, which is why it was sad to see it go.So when I drove up to this Mac’s less than an hour ago hoping to find something to drink and I saw they had frosters, I was ecstatic! But I was shocked when I went inside and actually saw their frosters station. To my surprise, all of the froster machines were working! The Mac’s near my house usually only ever had one or two of their four machines working. Not only were all their machines working at this newfound location though, they also have eight of them!My opinion of this Mac’s only got even better because I saw that, on top of the froster station (which is incredible enough as is), they have a fountain drink station and a f’real milkshake station! There’s even an ATM in the corner!The store was very clean, and everything looked all stocked up. I didn’t see a single thing that was out-of-order in the store.The man at the cash was very nice and polite as well, although I didn’t talk to him much.”
“This Quickie is the best. Great selection of all products, always in stock and great customer service. Bassam is a great employee, always welcoming us with smiles and never fails to make us laugh. Great store with great people.”
“Only 5 starsat night but during the day when the owner is working for some reason he has it in his head that I steal from that location. I have never been so rudely accused of this considering the other owner who works nights is an extremely close person I can rely on and same with me reversed. I would never steal because then I wouldn't be able to talk to my close 'buddy' let's call him. The morning owner won't even let me give him my side of the story or even show me video of me stealing. So 5 stars at night 1 star morning”

“On Tuesday evening, I went to purchase batteries for my car keys at Slater Street Market 350 Slater and was extremely happy with the service I received from Kuljit. He installed the battery in my car keys and sold it for a great price (less than 6$ for 3 batteries). Great service!”
“Always a fun place to stop, they offer a variety of savings, have partnerships with other loyalty programs, and banks! There is always a sale of some sort. They also come out with free promotions for their members. This is 1 out of my 3 preferred stops for gas and convenience! They are also open 24h which makes it readily available no matter what time it is! ??”

“All items that were sold in this particular Circle K was well stocked and priced in proper place along with the proper signs. The entire place seemed very clear and the employee was not only friendly but he was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about product questions.”
“Could see this store from my condo window and ended to give it a try.
Found the essentials I needed until my next grocery delivery. Seceded to try the samosas and Jamaican patties (2 for $5).
Will definitely visit again.
Owner was warm and friendly.”
