7-Eleven

This is a good 7-Eleven. The cashier is super nice. I will explain why this 7-Eleven stands out from others:

I was not having a good day. I was having a very bad day. Every other 7-Eleven in the valley, it feels like they’re watching you suspiciously. Not this one. In fact, it felt like the cashier was making sure to avoid doing that. I felt welcome & it helped improve my mood immediately. I couldn’t find something, not because of the store, but because I was flustered with other things completely unrelated. I found what I was looking for & went to the counter to pay.

The cashier has a positive presence. That’s the only way I can put it. I think he could tell I wasn’t feeling well. He rang up my drinks. I paid & walked out. I crossed the street & realized I forgot to purchase the item I couldn’t find. I left it on the counter by accident. My fault completely.

I was so mad I had forgotten the pastry. I stomped back into the store. There was a woman paying for drinks at the counter talking to the cashier. I felt like I had interrupted their conversation. She was talking to the cashier like they were very good friends. She smiled at me as if to apologize for taking more time than she needed to. I didn’t mind at all. I saw the pastry & asked if I had paid for it. The cashier politely responded that he did not ring it up. Not his fault at all, but mine completely. He scanned the pastry on one register then helped a person behind me on a second register. He smiled at me when my payment went through & I walked out again.

I don’t go to this 7-Eleven often, but it is obvious that many others come to this 7-Eleven because of the positive atmosphere inside. I felt it & others do too. I wish more places like this existed. The pandemic has created so much distrust it seems… this 7-Eleven makes you feel like the pandemic never happened (even with my mask on). A happier time that many of us have forgotten about too easily. I’ll be coming back as often as I can.

If you have never been to this 7-Eleven, go out of your way & see for yourself. You’ll be happy you did.

Bro the chocolate croissants go absolutely crazy here, it’s actually nutty compared to University pricing. I save like 2.00 per and I’m addicted to this stuff. I don’t know how they bake these things but I know the pastry elf they got back there is cookin’ absolute GAS. I’ll snap a photo later for proof.

Update: The photo proof

I live next door to this 7-eleven. Every review that isn't a 5 star review is a lie. Everyone that works here is so sick. I have approximately 30,000 7-eleven points; I am trying to save up points so that one day I can actually purchase the whole 7-eleven off of points alone. I am going to exchange every single dollar I have for 7-eleven points, might even mortgage my house.

Come here often due to working at the University, closest convenience store around with cheap quick food with sodas and such always available. Staff work there every time i see theme and are very helpful and fast

I shop at that store daily and the people are all real friendly always smiling and the prices are fair and they always have fresh food good store good people

They normally have any quick last minute things I need for baking

The clerks are super chill and quick. Honestly, best place for U of U students to fuel up everyday.

The employees at this location are always nice and very efficient. They can move customers through a line like no other.

Your average every day 7-11 located a block from the University of Utah campus. Great location.

Usually have what I want in stock here so it's good in my eyes.

The pirate dude Paul is awesome and deserves a raise!

Normal convenience store. Exactly what you would expect from it.

Best service at 10 pm

greate

Parking is typical for a 7-11. Store is clean staff are typically friendly

Great for a late night food pickup. Standard for 7-Eleven, expectations met.
