“Pretty cool store. I’ve passed by it a couple times and always wanted to check out the inside. Because I’ve noticed the sign outside said pizza and Mediterranean food. Stopped in on Sunday. There was no pizza or Mediterranean food. It’s a very decent sized convenience store tho. Aside from the typical corner store stuff like snacks and drinks, I love how they have a small assortment of clothing items and accessories. Tons of smoke stuff and even stuff to help you move. The person at the counter seems chill as he watched a soccer match on tv. Got a t shirt and a Bandana while there. If I’m in the area again, I’ll definitely stop by.”

“If this Pharmacy was open on weekends like all the others around, I would have given this one five stars. Denise is the pharmacy manager and she seems to do her job, and there's always usually the same male pharmacist when I go in. Small staff may be helping this place run better.”

“This is a convenient, quick stop in off of Newport Ave. They stock all of the same pharmacy and health and beauty products as CVS but I find this store a lot faster to get in and out of. Plenty of parking too!”

“I was unaware that I dropped my key chain with all my store cards. Brian found them, looked up my phone number and called my home before I knew I had lost them. Brian went the extra mile. People like Brian give CVS a good name. Thank you Brian.”
