“Great pit stop very easy on-off from 95! Nice, clean restrooms, large selection of items in the convenience store. However, the real 5 star review is for Granny's Fried Chicken and the Mac 'n Cheese side! If you take some in the car see how long before you open the box because the aroma is fabulous. Very friendly staff. Glad we needed gas right around lunchtime and stopped there.”

“This is by far the best convenience store in emporia. I’ve started to get gas here even though it’s a bit higher my reasoning for that is some stores have so much water in the tanks(not pointing fingers) at least at Cornerstone you know your getting QUALITY! (i became a rewards member and got .18c off per gallon!) Open 24hrs! Super Convenient, The staff is super friendly and helpful along with the manager (Teresa) 10/10 totally recommend”

“I am so glad we stopped here. The food was amazing and the service was exceptional. The lady working the chicken counter had the most pleasant demeanor. She definitely used that southern charm. We ordered the chicken livers, tenders and Cornbread. Everything was delicious but I can't stop thinking about the Cornbread. Thank your for being so nice to our family.”

“I visit this CVS store regularly, though not the pharmacy. They always have a good selection of products, and some that you can't find elsewhere. Today during my visit, Dorothy was working the front part of the store. She is always super friendly and helpful, and is always professional at the same time. I prefer to use a cashier as compared to a self checkout, and if she is working, she's always willing to oblige me, This is a clean, well organized store in a safe location. Sign up for CVS Extra Bucks rewards, and you'll get coupons each week that you can use towards your purchase. I recommend this store to others, whether local or passing through.”
