“Me and my daughter absolutely love this little convenience store... We both love the huge selection of NeeDoh squishy toys (priced cheaper than anywhere in town and the actual NeeDoh brand) and Rafi the worker is always so kind and professional to the both of us.....”
“jolly mart is my favorite—such a west central staple. everyone who works there is awesome! don’t know names but guy with hoodie and guy with glasses that work closings are my favorites they're always so nice and funny and you can always rely on them being chill. super awesome neighborhood store.”
“It is a circle k now and still a good place to go especially at night because it's one of the few places that is open all night long we can still get gas and pick up anything you need such as milk or necessities”
“Going to urgent care is never fun but today was an exception. Our care team was out of this world and we couldn’t be more thankful for Michelle, Geo, Bri, and Madison! The way they walked through each step, joked when we needed it, and reassured us, will keep us coming back anytime we have an urgent need.”
“7.17.26: Started coming here these past few months for it's convenient location for gas as it's one of the last gas stations on the way outta town heading towards Idaho. Recently my roommate mentioned they had scoop ice cream and today was my first time inside the store. Had he told me sooner about the ice cream, I would have definitely already checked it out. The ambiance was hustle and bustle. It was pretty busy inside and the ice cream side was definitely poppin'. Not to mention the upper 90s temp to top it off 🥵 When it was my turn, the male employee helping me was really nice and patient. I didn't catch his name, but he was on the younger side and soft spoken. Anyways, I got a double scoop of Bubble Gum and Playdough ice cream on a waffle cone🍦 It was sooo delicious and he actually filled my cone..it wasn't hollow empty with just the ice cream sitting on top--like a lot of other places do lol. The value for what I got was completely satisfying. What's even better is, they proudly serve Cascade Ice Cream, which is a popular Pacific Northwestern brand from Oregon. The same male employee told me they have 5 to 6 flavors on a regular and a handful of rotational ones. Looking forward to trying more that's for sure! Being it was my first time in and it was kinda busy, there was a lot to look at and I got overwhelmed lol. I noticed a pizza place inside too and was surprised at that. I definitely want to check out what their pizza is all about amongst all the other snacks and candy I saw. My first visit inside the actual store and interacting with the employees was positive and pleasant.”
“Our neighborhood bodega. We love the owner and his family who work there with him. They are great, and they are part of what makes our neighborhood the great place it is!”
“This place is a awesome little truck stop plus gas station they do serve hot food unfortunately they're not open 24/7 the lady that works here is very nice and you got to try the fried steak strips they are amazing giving this place five stars although the parking lot was a little muddy definitely can't complain when you need somewhere to park”
“Decent Indian food, kinda weird vibe but has some of the best selection in the city. Bright lights keep the weirdos and druggos away. Staff is nice, but definitely just the owner’s family”
“Everybody makes mistakes... me more so than others. I made a snap quick judgement about this gas station/convience store based off 1 isolated incident. I have gone back there numerous times now and the entire staff has been nothing but kind and gracious. Even helping me pay the rest of my bill when I was a few dollars short. As usual a learning lesson for me and a big sorry for this establishment. They are good people that take care of you. Oh and their hot box food is bomb. If your swinging by on sprague check out this hidden gem. You won't regret it.”
“Everything I needed all in one place. I dropped off a package at Fed Ex, picked up a prescription at Rite Aide and went grocery shopping at Fredmeyer and omw home I stopped and grabbed some food to go.”
“It is a very nice place to visit and consume fresh products all the time. They are also very tolerant of the bad attitude of those who are going to consume alcohol in the place.”
“Awesome our hede in mallott near okanogan and clay andbelindas About a mile from mallott housing ain't getting killed by shy nof once or twice I don't care if she hatedme gods going to work for me Nd you”

“My car broke down on the highway and Donnie was to us within 30 minutes. He was very kind and very speedy. He made sure we had a ride situated and were safely off the highway before he left. Probably the best towing experience I have ever had.”
“I like the night time employee/owners son who works the nite shift he's sweet,funny,very good salesmans gives u grest deals on the product items sold there it's not just a mini mart it has smoking products there plus nice gifts for people who like to collect knifes & statue's everything u need for paranoia stuff like bongs & vapors but the staff their are alm very cool & kind welcoming people u get treated with kindness there thank u garland mini mart for great service..”
“LOVE the prices for vape! One of the cheapest places I have found in town :) gas prices can be a bit higher than others though and the parking lot is a bit hard to navigate with alot of traffic”
“I have always had great service here, they have never given me any issues when I bring my dog in with me... Luckily he tends to behave himself. Seems like there gas prices are a little higher than some other places but as I am talking advantage of the busses tell I can save up to get another car I have no issues with them... The price of gas in general on the other hand is getting to be ridiculous but there's nothing they or I can do about that”
“Prices are a little high, but that's everywhere now. But the fuel points system they have is pretty badass. If you shop at Safeway, you need to take advantage of it.”
“Great gas station with lots of great drinks, snacks, and toys adult and kid lol. They also have a bunch of cool stuff for smokers. Above all the customer service was amazing very respectful people here love it!!”
“*Update: they got rid of the tv things!* Another gas station that forces you to listen to commercials while you fill your tank. Everything else about the place is good but those tvs are a deal breaker for me.”
“Update:New guy that's been working at this location has been cool. Gave a couple more stars for better employee and more kind staff lately.STARED 1: The older women who is usually in there running the store showed me a completely different side of her. Today I experienced rudeness from her and that’s unfortunate. She was extremely unkind and acted completely out of anger. The past 4 years I’ve lived in the area this is one of the main stops home that I would make on an occasion. The people who run it are usually sweet and nice. I asked to cash a 10$ lotto ticket and for some reason that triggered her. I tried to buy some more scratch tickets but the one I wanted to buy were out. So, I just wanted to take the rest of the cash. She told me not to come back to turn in lotto tickets.”
“I love most the staff some thank thay know what thay are doing but don't know how to use the cash benefits to get gas thay make u buy something to get money off your card to get gas when really thay aren't just educated enough to use it correctly. Other then that it's a great friendly, clean gas station.”
“Gas station and convenience store with Chesters chicken and hot food selections. Family owned and super friendly on corner of Wellesley annd Assembly in North Spokane by hospital.”
“First time (the gas price is always higher then other stores) stopping in at this particular station, it was beautiful inside. Super clean and tidy. The gal at the register was funny, attentive and polite. What a great experience! Five ? star in store service with wit and humor, priceless!”
“They overcharge for premium fuel here, about $0.55 more than regular vs the usual $.40 more. Go to 10th and Walnut or S. Regal & 44th for reasonable premium fuel prices.”
“I don’t normally leave Google reviews but there was a guy in a Seahawks jersey who was super friendly and even came out to help me push my car. Excellent service, this man deserves a raise.”
“We picked our photos we ordered from the comfort of our couch. Three 4 by 6 were 89 cents. They often have coupon deals. They also have many coupons for other items. Simply hook to the app.”
“Good vape selection, all the snacks and drinks you could want or need, they even have my favorite energy drinks :) much more friendly staff than the food market downtown”
