“This is one of the best convenience stores around! They have a great selection of cold drinks in the cooler—everything from popular sodas to energy drinks and some unique options you don’t always find elsewhere. The store is always clean and well-organized, and the staff are super friendly and helpful. It’s a quick, easy stop when I need something on the go. Highly recommend this place .They have large variety of vapes & best price in near by places .”

“I am sharing this as of the day after Tropical Storm Ida hit and I decided to go through the Schuylkill River Trail. I was trying to go to the northwest area in Reading, but that area got blocked off due to the floods. So I decided to go southeast instead and try to see how far I could walk, trying to get to Birdsboro as a self-challenge, but my legs eventually started hurting from all the walking I did. As I was walking, when I was hoping to know where a good stop would be because I needed to use the restroom and get something to eat, I had to look for places on Google Maps to see where I could go. I searched restaurants first but the closest one was closed. The southeastern part of the trail only has as much as benches, signs, exits, and map directions as a pamphlet. Then I tried to search for stores, but Google had ones as close as a mile which was still a long way to walk considering I really had to use the bathroom. So, I thought to myself: \\\"It would have been convenient if there was a place I could stop at because this trail is pretty long and I'm hungry and need to use the bathroom and there is nothing around. How much longer can I walk through this part of the trail and be patient about it while I REALLY need to use the bathroom?\\\" As soon as I was finished thinking it, as soon as I see train tracks and saw a sign that said the direction of the Schuylkill River Trail continues down the different eastern direction, I also saw this Turkey Hill right across and I was like that was such coincidental timing. So, I went inside and used the restroom, grabbed a chocolate chip muffin and an icy drink and then headed back towards Reading through that trail (taking breaks of course at benches, since I didn't get any on my way traveling through this part of the trail). I don't know why this Turkey Hill did not show up on Google Maps though on my cell phone, which is weird. I saw this Turkey Hill right across from me and the trail and train tracks when I finished the first portion of the southeastern trail. And now it appears on Google Maps on my lap top. Anyways, it's a pretty great Turkey Hill and it's very convenient for being located across where the first southeastern portion of the Schuylkill River trail ends. If you are someone who takes long distance walks, runs, or bikes on that Trail, this Turkey Hill maybe the right stop for you. Just be sure to look both ways before crossing the road, and watch out for a train if any show up.”
