Long Beach Circle K

A love/​hate relationship with this station…
Love:
— 1 of 2 stations in LB
— Lots of pumps
— The store is amazing
– Beer cooler
– Lots of snacks and candy
– Deli with Boar’s Head
– Nathans!
– Solid functioning bathroom
– Very clean
Hate:
— Prices are $.30 higher than other stations
— Debit will cost you the credit price (I thought this was illegal?)
— Tough to get back onto Park Ave due to the turning lane always being congested
Bottom line, if you’re just looking for gas and can make it a few more miles, stop somewhere else. If you need a bite, a beer run or a bathroom break, come on in!

A gas station that is open all the time and the mini mart is clean?
I’ll take it!
Awesome!
Their beer selection isn’t too bad either considering it’s an On the Run!
Coffee is good, too!

Tuesday — Friday I’m up at 415 in the morning and going to the gym.
This is my first stop. Fresh, hot coffee with friendly service. AND — after regularly coming here the attendant told me I should get a «frequent coffee card», or whatever its called. Every six cups of coffee, I get a free one. AND he punched my card for the coffees I had all week. AND they give you a free bottle of water with a large coffee (which I don’t drink, its that cheap-​o weird spring water, I just save it in my fridge for guests.)
Did I mention they have a great coffee bar? My morning gym companions are a lot happier now that I come here first.
Oh, I think you can get gas here, but its a little pricey. Go a half mile up the block to hess and you won’t have to pay an addition 10 cents a gallon when you use your debit card.

For a gas station this place has everything you need, the inside basically a 7 – 11 minus the famous Slurpee’s. The coffee here is always fresh and is kept warm in the pump style carafe’s as opposed to the glass coffee pots that tend to burn the coffee if it should sit for more than 10 minutes.
Aside from the coffee and such they also have a nearly full service deli where you can pick up a sandwich and an array of breakfast sandwiches that are freshly made and not in some wrappers. Actually their egg sandwiches are quite good.
As for their gas portion the prices are reflective of the over inflation that we’ll be paying at the pumps but that’s for another forum to be vented. The parking here is ample and the inside and out are kept clean. Overall a reliable spot for coffee and some gas.
