7 Eleven

I used to come to this location all the time seeing as it is a few blocks from home but now I try to avoid it at all costs. I came in here last week with a friend to pick up a case of beer and some snacks. The girl at the checkout was beyond rude. She just kept sighing and rolling her eyes at us. My friend asked her how her night was and she said out loud to her coworker «is she kidding me right now?» And then they started laughing. After paying for our items she just had everything left on the counter not bagged. I ask for a bag and she goes «can’t you just carry it?» Again with the eye rolls from her. We had 4 bags of chips and beer. I guess I could have carried it but seriously? If you hate your job please quit or learn to stop being so rude to your customers. I know its just a 7 – 11 but customer service is key to any business.

Every time I go here, I’m overly harassed by the staff to purchase a pizza or a coffee cake and they’re usually sort of rude about it but I’m able to look past it because maybe it’s required.
Tonight I swung by to pick up some booze. Upon nearing the store, I saw two employees smoking outside. As I reached for the door handle, they both told me they were closed for 30 minutes and pointed to a paper taped to the door that read, «Temporarily closed» in pink highlighter. I found it understanding and since I live two blocks away, decided I’d just go home and come back a little later but on the way home I realized how fishy the whole thing seemed and went back to ask why they were closed and to hopefully get a picture of the posted sign. A few minutes later, I found myself at the entrance again with no one outside and no sign taped to the door.
There are other convenience stores nearby but I won’t be going back here knowing there’s a chance it’ll be «closed» for an employee smoke break.

I’ve came to this 7 – 11 three times and each time the service was relative to the speed of a snail. Twice I’ve missed a bus because of how slow the people were working. It’s nearly winter and waiting twenty minutes for a bus to get some junk food isn’t worth it.
My last experience was above all the worst. My bus was about to arrive in 8 minutes, just enough time to grab some food and go. There was one person ahead of me in the line and they were not being rung up. Apparently there was something wrong with their register because it was taking four staff members to fix it which is ridiculous. I waited about 5 minutes and no one rung me up or was explaining what was going on and I was getting upset. when one of the ladies finally decide to ring me up I was informed that they would not accept debit card that day. All I had on me was a debit card. Is the staff was working in a more effective manner I would have known sooner that was the issue they had instead of missing my bus. When I pointed out to the lady bad because of their slowness I missed my bus she gave me an attitude and said «I didn’t know you are paying with debit». well if one of the four employees weren’t all hovering over one register and what actually tending to their customers maybe you would have known.
Awful. I will never go here again.

This is the only 7 – 11 in the state of Illinois that is not a franchise store. This store is owned by 7−11… So you can expect the best here,
Staff is on their game and the store is clean.

Came in it was a bit dirty and I liked that the employees are friendly but do you really have to shove other items I don’t want to buy in my face I don’t want I snicker!

Staff is friendly alright, but I prefer to just get in and get out especially if I’m in a hurry. Hello, bag no bag, thank you come again, all the simple stuff is enough. No need for all the unnecessary talk for a convenience store.

Oh, thank heaven.
It’s a 7 – 11. Staff is friendly enough most of the time. The selection is what you’d expect — overpriced snacks and sodas. Still, it’s a convenient location.
I like that you can get the small bags of Chex Mix here, instead of the giganto ones Target sells, so there’s that.

The staff is some of the friendliest I’ve encountered in a metropolitan 7 – 11.
Still, it’s 7 – 11.
Everything costs more, but you’re the one coming in, right?
I go here when I’m in a rush, which is apparently, often.
They have parking, which in the city is always a plus.
In and out in a flash, no hassle.

This particualr 711 is one of my favorites… Yes I know what you are going to say «all 711’s are the same» But no they are not.
This one is usually staffed with friendly people.
