(TL;DR - It used to be amazing, but their disregard to ingredient freshness and short inventory…read morethat does not match with their diverse menu made them drop in quality) About ten months ago, I wrote a review about how amazing this deli was. Despite it's small size and humble exterior, the food they served was fresher than their chain counterpart, Subway. They also had more variety in their sandwich options and their drinks, and they had a rewards system that was very fair. Unfortunately, that is not the case anymore. Their drink options are still diverse and they still offer the standard convenience store products, such as cigarettes or gum. But their main value of selling quality sandwiches unfortunately is not there. Their rewards system of getting a free sandwich after purchasing nine dissipated about a month after the store opened, and the quality of food went downhill since then. For one, even though their menu still has the same amount of options as they first opened, most of them seem to be out of stock all the time. Each time I see a sandwich I would like to have, I would find out that they didn't have that kind of meat available. I would have to go through four or five different options to find one that they had, which is usually something really basic like plain turkey. The quality of food also degraded. While I applauded them for their freshly cut vegetables and well-preserved topping, just one look shows that a lot of their food has been left out for at least a few days. Their bacon is dry, their deli meats have a funky after taste, and their eggs are clearly processed (I wanted to get an egg and cheese once with a sunny side egg only to find that they don't use fresh eggs. Instead, they use these dry omlette half disks that just look unappealing). As for the freshly cut vegetables, it's obvious that they have gone stale from their lack of crunch. Their picks are still juicy from my lack experience though. I know this place can get it's act together, since it was once one of the best delis during its debut. I would recommend that they focus back to what made them unique, which was fresh ingredients and high variety. At the very least, if they choose not to get more of the ingredients on their menu, they should shorten it so that their inventory becomes more manageable. But no matter what, they should find a way to get back to fresh ingredients that really make a difference.

This location has an okay-ish stock of products. But if you're looking for some random stuff, they might not have it in stock. Definitely gets busy though during the day. Always a long line of people waiting to pay at the counter. Wishing that they would've self-checkout to speed up things. I think they really need it. Staff's service is a hit or miss, you might end up getting a rude cashier sometimes. But that's on them, not you. Most staff members I've encountered, including security guards are decent. One thing I've been starting to notice over the years, more beauty and oral care sections towards the windows are getting locked up with plastic shields and shelves. You'll see it all over the makeup + skincare + even toothpaste. Now, they've got the "press button for assistance" installed all over the upper floor of Duane Reade.

This store…read morehas been here as long as I can remember and one of the few places in the village that provides a parking lot. It used to be the only place in the village you could get food, drinks, groceries, beer, lotto, etc. Now there are numerous stores like this in the surrounding blocks. I no longer live in Whitestone but I visit my parents often in the area. I probably visit this 7-11 at least once each time I visit. I usually stop in here for lottery tickets because I am not aware of any other places in the village that provide this service. There is always traffic here with people and cars, no matter what time of the day or night. The staff is usually very friendly and attentive. Everything is usually stocked really well and the items are neat and tidy throughout the store. They have so many options for different types of coffees, hot food, and cold food. There are also several refrigerators full of drinks and food. Also, freezers stocked with frozen food and desserts.
