“By far the best neighbourhood store in North End! They have a great variety of items! The staff are very friendly but one young male employee went above and beyond. My husband lost his wallet and we were obviously devastated because we needed to replace every piece of ID. One of the staff at the store found it and brought it to our house! Huge thumbs up and they have my all of my family's business”

“We have been eating here for years but the menu had aged and shrunk so we hadn’t been back for a while. We stopped for a takeout last night and were pleasantly surprised by a large new menu. I had the fried chicken which came with Cole slaw, good fries and a side choice of garlic soup. Not enough garlic to bother any vampires but it was a good creamy potato soup. My wife had a pork chop special which was the size of a small steak.we will be back sooner than later.”

“Summer’s almost here, and we just have one request: Please turn on the AC in your store! ? We went in for a Froster on a warm day, and it was like a sauna in there. (Even my child noticed that it was uncomfortably hot, so I know it wasn’t just me…) Otherwise, I only have good things to say! The counter staff here are always super polite, helpful and pleasant to deal with. Security also seems attentive and effective, so we as regular customers don’t often witness theft or safety issues occurring here—unlike at some other CK stores. And MOST importantly, the Froster machines at this store are (almost) always working, which is the main reason we visit CK, so we are very rarely disappointed. Thanks!”

“I have never had an unpleasant experience st this location ever. From the owner, to the employees and especially Boby. They are all super nice and polite. One time there was a rude either Skip driver or Door Dash driver that rudely tried to butt in front of me and take an order without presenting ID. Boby maintained professionalism and defended me asking the other person to wait. The driver did not like that but it was the right thing to do and Boby handled that situation perfectly. We always go to this Circle K because of the friendliness and professionalism.”
