7-eleven - Redondo Beach

This has been my local 7/11 for years, dating back to when it was a Circle K in the 90s, right next to a breakfast and lunch coffee shop called 'Snax' (which is now where Papa Guido's is located). They have a great system for getting customers in and out efficiently. It’s always impressive when I approach the counter, and before I even say a word, they’re already retrieving my preferred brand of cigarettes from behind the counter. I typically have the right amount of cash ready, making the transaction incredibly smooth. Nowadays, it's rare to find businesses that hire staff who can remember faces or names of regular customers, let alone their smoking preferences. This old-school, personable approach truly makes one feel valued as an individual, rather than just another faceless consumer.

I enjoy visiting the 7-Eleven because the staff is friendly. If there's a coffee you like that's not already prepared, they will often make it for you, though not every time.

Occasionally, they hold special events outside with booths featuring Monster Energy drinks, so be on the lookout for those. Additionally, there's a taco place right next door if you're craving tacos. Just a note: while the 7-Eleven doesn't have restrooms, the taco place does. Overall, this is a great spot that's definitely worth a visit!

The staff at Nathur are excellent at ensuring my driver's license is kept safe, and their menu features a variety of offerings beyond just chicken sliders.

Nice friendly crew always!
