Sunrise Convenience Store

this is a small but good size community market sells all range of items. Also they have parking lot. I needed small items ASAP and got them quick.

Being that this place is very close to my house and directly on my way to work, it actually is very convenient. They open very early (6am I believe) and are open reasonably late. They have a better selection than your average gas station convenience store. A short list of things they carry includes greeting cards, helium balloons, lottery/​scratch off tickets, magazines, soda/​juice/​energy drinks, small selection of house hold necessities (batteries/​flashlights/​toilet paper), and an array of snacks. Now my reason for a 4 star review and what sets them apart from your average cumby’s is that they have soft serve (vanilla & chocolate) which you can have as a milkshake, on a cone, cup or as a sundae. They also have fresh coffee, tea, 3 slushee machines and get this, 2 coolers of beer! The final touch is their full service deli where they have plenty of great sandwich choices that they make for you fresh on the spot (unlike most Saran wrapped soggy gas station sandwiches), and the deli meats and cheeses seem to mostly be boars head not a mystery brand so you actually know what you are getting. The one draw back is their $ 10 debit/​credit minimum, and that you can not purchase milk or bread on your debit/​credit card. Granted they do have an ATM in the store.

Can’t believe this place has dodged reviews for so long. It’s been around since I moved to Simsbury25 yrs ago. It’s your typical overpriced convenience store. Snacks, hot dogs, lottery tickets for every addicted gambling junkie’s preference known to mankind. They do a bang-​up business with families on the way to, or back from the Little League fields. Not sure if they still have these, but they used to make these ridiculously thick ice cream shakes where they’d mash in candy bars the kids bought. I get a newspaper there once in a while, maybe a can of ice tea once in a blue moon. Other than the combo gas station/​mini marts that are so abundant now, this is the only true Convenience store in the area.
