The sign at this Circle K often displays a lower price than they are actually charging at the pumps. False advertising should be illegal. Yesterday, 3/5/24, when I filled up, their road sign displayed $3.19; however, at the pump, unleaded was actually $3.29. This morning when I passed, the sign still said $3.19. I had forgotten they reeled me in with their lie before. I won't forget again and I won't be returning.

If a gas station has an air pump, they should also be responsible for maintaining it! I stopped today to fill up air in my car tires. The pump accepted $2.00 with my debit card but the number at the pump is stuck at 32 psi and would not change. The air pump was basically useless and non functional! Went inside the store and the cashier was clueless, she said she didn’t know how it worked and could do nothing about it! Very disappointing, a waste of time and money.

Avoid. Received bad gas at this location. Cost me days without my car and an expensive tow back to Virginia. Circle K helpline wont return any calls.

I travel for work so I stop at a million gas stations and almost never leave a review but DANG this place was dirty. The cashier was very pleasant and they had what I needed but the bathroom was filthy and my feet stuck to the floor in the rest of the store. Y’all could do better during a pandemic.

Pierre was an amazing cashier. he had that store clean and smelling so lovely. it was refreshing to use a clean bathroom after a long night at a concert. Thank you again Pierre!

Just stopped by here one the way home and attempted to get a pack of cigars for tonight. The scanner on the register at this location rarely works on ids and often has to be retried 4-5 times before it will actually scan the ID. Usually this isn’t a problem and they just rescan my ID, verify it and I move on but tonight after it failed to scan only ONE time, the employee refused to sale to me and refused to even try scanning it again after I’d just waited through the whole line and told me that I’d have to leave. Will never be stopping here again. Do yourself a favor and go one exit down to Sheetz. They are open 24 hours as well, have working scanners, and employees who actually know what they are doing!

I've never actually been to this Circle K, but I couldn't find a way to write a review about the other Circle K in Hillsborough, so I'm going to write it here.To be clear, this is a review of the Circle K at the intersection of St Mary's and 70 in Hillsborough, North Carolina.I've been getting gas for 18+ years and was pleasantly surprised by the modern and extensive coffee bar that was available at this location. You have the choice of four different sizes, all of which are priced at under $2, which is a good deal compared to the Starbucks cold brew cans sold that are sold for $3.75 and are smaller than the "small" circle K brew. I'm embarrassed to say that I've been purchasing the cold brew cans this summer, simply because I was too lazy to make coffee at home and didn't realize that Circle K has awesome coffee.The main operation of the coffee station is a large, digitized coffee dispenser. It produces iced coffee, regular coffee and decaf coffee. Once you select your choice on the touchscreen, you're able to choose the roast and the size of coffee that you want. The touchscreen gives you the option of selecting "fill it up," or "leave room for cream." It also has an option to stop the stream at any point in time, which is a necessary but nice gesture not seen at other gas stations.As a person who is highly sensitive to caffeine, but loves the experience of drinking coffee, this set up serves my needs perfectly. I'm able to select decaf from the main menu, fill it up half way, and make the rest caffeinated. I can adjust this combination as needed, as per time of day or level of exhaustion etc.I've also been enjoying adding some of the "Fall Harvest," beverage, which is seasonal and available on a smaller appliance to the right of the one I described above. The machine offers hot chocolate, Fall Harvest and a cappuccino, which feels out of place, but doesn't lower my overall opinion of the coffee station. It's nice to add a little sweet flavor to my coffee without being gouged for $4-7 for a special drink at a coffee shop.The last addition is cream. The coffee bar offers cream from an automated dispenser (both 1/2 n 1/2 and french vanilla are available) as well as individual pods in more flavors from International Delights. I prefer to use the dispenser as I can put as much cream in as I want without wasting material.The only issue I've experienced with the coffee bar is when the cream dispenser was clearly empty. I tried both the 1/2 and 1/2 nozzle and the french vanilla one and neither one worked. I decided to use the individual creams instead, but couldn't find 1/2 and 1/2 pods, just a bunch of the international delights flavors, which I usually like, but sometimes just can't stand. It put a damper on my morning, but thankfully it was just a one-off.

So I have been coming here since a teen. For years. I was in the store yesterday and there is this new employee lady, elderlyish, glasses, darkish blondish hair, short. Yesterday came in she was very slow at scanning the items obviously not caring about time or anything. My card and the machine worked fine yesterday and every past time I have been there. Come in tonight fine got my stuff waiting in line got to my turn at the register. She takes long time to scan some candy and beer. When I inserted my card the machine on my side kept freezing up and kept saying the message waiting on cashier. After a few times of this it finally worked while the second cashier came into work tall and new as well. I admit I put the pin wrong the first time bc I was trying to use debit instead of credit bc there were quite a few people behind me. She sets it again and has been talking to the other cashier this entire time about something that happened this morning with another employee. I am literally trying to figure out this card thing and she is ignoring me and everyone else completely behind me. I felt that I needed to say something. I asked her if she could help me with this card error situation and she said sarcastically I don't know your pin number. I said I know you don't but your standing there talking while there is a situation going on and I pointed to the people behind me and said others are waiting behind me. She replied I'm talking to my coworker. She started being rude at that point and I said to her your being very rude and not helpful. She then proceeds to act like shes sorry saying she isn't trying to. By this point the card machine worked and it approved the sale. I told her that is was approved and walked away. She proceeds to yell at me as I walk away in front of everyone who was still waiting. So I don't know why this lady is still working here. I definitely won't be coming back. I've given business here for years but you better bet on it me, my family, and everyone reading this most likely won't come back here. It's sad really because there are some really nice long term employees that work here. Guess Sheetz will have my business from now on. Atleast they are nice and welcoming. And also the replyHi there, thank you for letting us know and we are sorry about your experience. We have passed on your message to our local management team.Won't matter much to me or the impact on your business unless something is really done about it.

I notified the clerk that the nozzle on the Coke icee machine was coated with black mold which I wiped off with a napkin. Her response was to thank me for letting her know. She did nothing. I rechecked the machine and every flavor had a nozzle with some black mold on it, a small amount but it was visible. I told her the machine needed to be shutdown so people couldn’t use it. She said that a lot of people weren’t doing what they were supposed to be doing and that she couldn’t do anything. What is going on at this store? It continues to go down hill. This is not the store it was even a year ago. I looked for a management contact email and found no one to contact. I gave been going to this Circle K since it opened. They have supported our local schools in fundraising efforts. I am very disappointed in my trip there tonight.

I know that no one checks these reviews before filing up, but all the pumps are going a gallon per two minutes. We're at five minutes of pumping at full throttle and barely over two gallons have pumped. Something is definitely wrong with this place. We'll never be back.

I was just at this store, one of the cashier's accused my daughter of stealing. I go in there to see what the problem is the cashier call me a female dog(bitc*). I go to that store all the time to spend my money and I can't believe me and my child was treated like that. To top all that she followed me outside still talking disrespectful stuff to me in front of my kids. I am very upset about all of this. I need to talk to somewhere at headquarters cause something has to be done about this.

Stopped in for some snacks tonight after work. They have signs on doors from Circle K stating that masks are required. That's all great but why don't your employees have to wear them?

Finding a clean restroom in a convenience store is always a plus however having read about the boycott of VUSE e-cigarettes by the Farm Labor Organizing Committee and the lack of response from Circle K Corporate I can no longer shop there. Farmworkers deserve the right to collective bargaining and fair labor practices and I hope Circle K reconsiders their current stance of ignoring this opportunity to be on the side of just labor practices.

This store is constantly going down hill! The icey machine is never working anymore especially when the big guy is working, and I dont think he can smile at anyone or greet anyone when they enter the store,he is never happy. I'm going to stop coming here and I will definitely tell friends to stop. Not sure they even deserve 1 star. Please fix this store
