Stopped by to get a soda and candy after a long day of travelling and found this 7-Eleven location. Their prices seemed more reasonable than your average 7-Eleven. From slur-pees to candy and soda, they have it all at good prices and have free parking for customers. While checking out, I accidentally left my phone and no more than five seconds later, a gentleman chased me down with it. Given that it was running low on battery and I was in town on business, losing it would have been a critical issue. Thank you to 7-Eleven for the much needed sugar rush and for returning my phone! read more

Strange place with high prices ran by even stranger people! Bad service and high prices compared to other locations!

I came here to buy sunscreen yesterday. The price on the shelf was 3.99, but I was charged 10.76. While checking out, the cashier was speaking a different language on the phone and told me to tap and pay very briefly. He did not provide me with a receipt and urged me out of the store. While already trying to scrape together money this was just salt on the wound read more

Service was terrible, granted it was midnight at the time but I went in only to grab a soda, and I brought it to the counter that were I was left standing for about 5 minutes while the cashier stood about 10 feet away staring at his phone, i didn't want to be rude but after 5 minutes i had to say excuse me so I could enjoy a nice coke instead of staring at it looking all delicious on the counter read more

I am only leaving 1 star and that is strictly for the women that work there, every time I go in there all of them are running around and doing something but when I go in at night and the evening they are all on their phones or just standing around doing nothing and for heavens sake there was one working out overnight. What the hell is that? This store used to be so well stocked and now I have to ask if something is here in their cold box. It seems the women want to succeed while the males are lazy. read more

CONSUMERS BEWARE!!!!! THESE PEOPLE ARE LOWKEY SCAMMERS!!! THEY CHARGE YOU MORE THAN WHAT THEIR BARCODE SAYS. AND YOU WON'T GET YOUR MONEY BACK AFTER PAYING SINCE THEY HAVE A NO RETURN NO REFUND POLICY. I left my headphones at home so I decided to stop in and purchase one. They had a couple of choices - one for $24.99 and the other for $14.99. I decided to go with the cheaper one. I paid for it and as I was about to leave the store, I quickly realized on my receipt that the headphones were listed as $15.99. So I returned back to the counter and pointed out THEIR MISTAKE. The cashier told me she couldn't give me a refund because of their NO RETURN NO REFUND policy. I asked if she can just cancel the transaction and re-ring the items I purchased since it has literally been only a minute or so since she completed my transaction. She said she can't do that and that my only option was to get something else for $1. I told her I didn't want anything else from the store and that there was nothing exactly for $1 anyways. The other cashier ended up discounting one of the cookies in exchange for it. MORAL OF THE STORY: ALWAYS CHECK YOUR RECEIPT TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE GETTING CHARGED CORRECTLY. BETTER YET, CHECK EVERYTHING BEFORE PAYING. read more

7-Eleven - BEWARE: They charge more than what their barcode indicates. Check prices before paying. You won't get your money back after you pay. - Convenience Stores Near Me - Carlsbad, California

The store is really clean and fully equipped cashiers are really nice stop and check out

I can not believe how unprofessional these 711 employees are. The other day I stopped by, was only in for maybe 3 min. And the whole time a manager was yelling at his employees. This time, the same guy was yelling at his employees in front of customers again and the back(maybe stock room) smelled like marijuana. Not a smart idea when you have kids walking in asking what the funny smell is. For the short time I'm in there, I felt super stressed and bad for those employees. I will be taking my business elsewhere next time. read more

If you like being treated like a dog this is the place for you. Terrible service, Go somewhere else and save yourself the negative experience and bad juju.. They require you to wear a mask but don't supply it. What a terrible way to run a business. The clerk barked at me loudly to put a mask on, I asked if he had any or sold any and he said 'nah man' Shirt over the nose didn't even work, He said He can't make the sale and I'm gonna have to wait outside. Wait for what??! you gonna bring what I need to me? No the clerk just had smart-ass words to say to a customer who wanted to give him money. These masks have turned people into entitled assholes, where you're discriminated and treated like dirt for not wearing one. If you want your customer to wear one so bad, then SUPPLY THE DAMN THING! read more

Very rude workers. Would not recommend coming in for anything non essential to your immediate needs. Very rude.

I used to come here every morning. I won't be back. Clerk at counter was not wearing a mask. When I asked him to put one one, he proceeded to lecture me on how masks don't work. Thanks, but I will spend my money elsewhere. read more

My wife and I were at the Carlsbad Inn (It is right across the street) near San Diego and this is the best 7-11 I have ever been to. They are next to a killer sub sandwich place (Board and Brew) that has $2 off great beers during their happy hour and their fridge is full of great local beers at pretty reasonable prices for a store right on the beach. I bought a bunch of Flamas flavored sunflower seeds, which are not available in Minnesota (I usually bring about 20 bags home, since they are perfect cubicle dwelling snacking at home.) The guys at the counter are always cool and seem genuinely happy to be helping you. Great store! read more

Try to stay away during the summer. Or at least come on foot. So many memories here. Come by at 1:45 am on Sat night/Sun morning and make some of your own. read more

7-Eleven - the outside of a 7 - eleven store at night - Convenience Stores Near Me - Carlsbad, California

It's always nice to see a variety of different things to chose from in this store. close to the beach and where I come down and stay when I'm visiting. Workers are friendly and clean inside. Wish all 7-Elevens were like this one! read more

Store is stocked well, but very unpleasant experience on four separate occasions due to atrocious customer service. Each of those four times (over a 6 month span), the women employees were ill-mannered, snapping at customers almost every visit. This was odd, being that the customers I saw appeared to be respectful to the employees & their store. Some were just looking to use a restroom, which is a pretty standard question in a 7-Eleven. read more

I ran out of water on my run so stopped in here to fill up my water/fuel belt. Unfortunately, no recycle cans around so I had to run with my empty bottle. I just can't bring myself to throw a recyclable item in the trash. Who would've thought trying to do the right thing will take so much effort. Perhaps 7-Eleven can invest in at least one can? This is a perfect spot to pick up a drink or snacks right before you head out to the beach. During the summer months, it can get a little crazy but giving them 3 stars for the convenience. They even sell beach supplies here in the event you need them. The gal working tonight was VERY friendly. Probably the friendliest worker that I've ever encountered here. We tend to stop in here a lot after a walk on the beach. A cool spot and definitely convenient. read more

I feel obligated to give this 7-11 an automatic one star upgrade. Why you ask? Well, during the Summer months this location has inflatable killer whales on display for tourists. I'd stop by to pick up typical 7-11 fare from time to time (lotto tickets, alcoholic/non alcoholic drinks, the Reader, the occasional bag of chips, a Red-Box DVD) and always got a kick out of this 7 ft. tall whale staring at me while I purchased my items. He had this happy...goofy kinda look on his plastic face. I'd certainly never purchase this "impulse buy" but got a kick out if it none the less. Well, I was watching NFL football last week and got a strange text from my GF. It was a picture of this whale sticking out of both sides of her friend's white truck (it was a tight fit to say the least) and within minutes the new addition to our home arrived. Yes, they purchased the 7-11 whale after bar hopping in Carlsbad. This thing is freaking HUGE. For awhile we had the flippers or arms of the great beast on either side of our fence, like he's trying to escape and race across the street to the ocean. We later decided the whale (Mr. Whaley the 7-11 magic whale) was placed atop out patio umbrella. You know, so all the passersbys could enjoy what looked to be a magic flying whale in Carlsbad. Yes, my GF still stands by her purchase. She later defended her purchase (and the new addition to our family) with the defense "It just felt right." She was also pleased when she purchased the item. They (the 7-11 employees) were willing to sell her a whale but not the display whale...but who wants to blow up a 7 ft whale? So, after a little negotiating they settled on a $5.00 additional charge to just buy the display whale...nicely done L! I was in 7-11 the other day. I was buying a Yoo-Hoo chocolate beverage because I needed extra vitamins and turned to where the whale used to stare at me and what did I see....a dolphin. To be continued. I give this local 7-11 8 "Mr. Whaley the 7-11 magic whale who lived by the sea" out of 10 read more

This 7-11 has the friendliest workers and best selection/quality of coffee! It's larger than the typical 7-11 and is always kept meticulously clean and organized. Their random selection of tchotchke is usually pretty interesting. I've bought everything from sunglasses to candy to sushi from this place and have always been satisfied. Their coffee setup is what really sets them apart. The coffee is in individual thermos' instead of scalded glass pots, which really makes a difference in the flavor! read more

This is one of the nicer 7-Elevens I've been too. You'll find more here than junk food and drinks. They have craft beer, booze and inflatables which is certainly a winning combo for a fun night. Inflatable dolphins and beach toys that is. What were you thinking?!? The store is clean and although the parking lot looks chaotic, there usually is plenty of parking. read more

Friendly staff, nice variety of hot coffee. Little bit over priced for gas station coffee IMO. Lots of parking and not too busy. I'm not particularly fond of the Solo lids they use for their coffee cups and their Brazilian Dark Roast wasn't my favorite. For the same price you could get a Starbucks Dark Roast which has much better flavor and for a cheaper price you could go to AM PM and get a better tasting Brazilian Dark Roast as well. There's way more that they provide here at 7-Eleven than just coffee but this review is based simply on that aspect because that's all I got from this location. The lady working was all by herself from what I saw and she was busily working to take care of customers as well as maintain the coffee supply, she even complimented me on my outfit. Overall sub-par experience, and I'm giving 3 stars only because of the woman who was working hard that morning to maintain customer satisfaction :) read more

The best 7-11 in Carlsbad. I purposely go out of my way from the 7-11 near the I-5 to come to this one. Sylvia is a hoot. Always so friendly and personable, I'd be lying if I said I never walked out without a smile. Definitely have to give her props for being so positive, especially when she deals with the crazies at night. 7-11 as a whole could use more like her! read more

7-Eleven - Always with a smile and great attitude - Convenience Stores Near Me - Carlsbad, California

Four stars for being a great store! The friendliest staff, very clean and well-kept and -stocked, and ample parking. Oh yeah, you're near the beach, but that didn't factor in to my rating. I docked one star because the California roll they sold there was absolutely terrible. I'll never buy another packaged California roll from a 7-Eleven again. But, the good was so good that I only have the heart to dock one star! read more

Remodeled 7/11. Used to come here a lot when I went to the beach. On this day I ran in here to grab a lighter. Nothing special bout today's visit. Typical 7/11. If you've seen one then you've probably seen this one too. Same ole. My dog likes it too. read more

Kody and Jared were awesome! Came in looking for s'mores and they knew exactly where to find all ingredients and even reminded me to get sticks to roast them on! Great employees! read more

Stuck up lady would give me change for a 20 when i just got 160 from their atm and paid them a 4$ transaction fee to use the atm they wanted me to pay even more just to get change when her drawer was already open. Horrible customer service. Ill be going to pig liquor from now on read more

This rating is only for their AMAZING selection of local craft beers. Keep in mind you will likely find a better selection at a specialty store, but if you just closed the bar and 7-Eleven is still selling you will be happy to know that you won't have to be "Up for Anything" with p!ss water beer. read more

Thank goodness this 7-Eleven was here. Nice store. I had to stop in to use their facilities. It was nice and clean for a public restroom. Nicely laid out store. read more

Danni and Rick are stellar! The entire staff are courteous and extremely helpful!! Great clothing items too! Everyday or perfect for the tourist folks! Lill' ones all the way up to ol' timers!! read more

I enjoy this 7-11 as a local and regular. The store is always clean and uncluttered. Also, the cashier Sylvia always is willing to make a pizza I order regularly when I come in with a smile. She is always moving around working when I'm in the store. The manager needs to hire more people like Sylvia. read more

I enjoy coming to this 711. I literally go out of my way from vista to come to this 711. Sylvia the cashier has a great personality and outstanding customer service. She always smiles and greets me as I come in the store. The store is always clean and in great order. I will continue to come to this 711 for years to come..... read more
