Neighborhood convenience store - one of TLH's Time Savers sans gasoline pumps…read more I'm on a mission to visit all our Time Saver stores in the city, and with this one still unreviewed, I can score "First to Review" cred AND pick up a couple of Arizona Teas. Fairly spartan interior - heavily barred windows - but I was greeted politely and would return anytime - if needed. ATM in the corner. Conspicuous "no hanging out" sign posted at entry, so I didn't.

Good selection for small store. Helpful and efficient staff. Always clean and good gasoline…read moreprices.

Cig prices are low compared to other places. They've got slurpees and a sub sandwich counter. They…read morehave a very tasty Pulled BBQ pork sandwich! I believe they have other food choices as well. Employees are very nice and personable. Once they get to know you, their service is impeccable. Of course they have gas pumps, lottery and all the usual stuff.

As will shortly be reflected, this is actually "Seminole Shell"…read more A Gas Station, by any other name, remains a Gas Station. But wait! This one is different. Special, you might say. It is one of eight in Tallahassee (according to pure-gas.org) that peddles Marine Gas (sans Ethanol). Don't care, you say? - Well - that's probably because you don't tool around in a vintage Muscle Car. Hey, I don't either. I "tool around" in a 2007 Prius... Anyway - this station offers good ingress / egress. On game days, you can even buy a spot here - and it's a fairly reasonable walk to the stadium (although that reminds me - a much closer place to park (and FREE) is the city-owned lot behind Kubano's / Gaines St. Pies. know where I'm talking about?)) This gets the "A-OK" endorsement because it is. Don't expect the boutique coffee "banquette" here - nor pristine rooms of rest. This is just a gas station like you read about.

Looking for a reasonably safe convenience-store conveniently close to a home-grown Fried Chicken…read moreoutlet? - look no further! - Express Lane is for YOU! Express Lane is in a customer profile vortex - caught between the clientele of a heavily used bus stop to the south, those gainfully motoring about in their own vehicles, and the pedestrian set neither boarding a bus nor getting back in their autos. Toss in the overflow from Krunchy Krispy - and you've got quite a diverse convenience store. There was a brief time when I opted for newer, flashier gas stations but those times are far behind. These days, I seek out the proverbial salt-licks found about the old-school bodega layouts of these here disenfranchised micro-businesses. I suspect there's no suit flying in from corporate to get a sense of "field-work" in the local Express Lanes. And that's a good thing. Those guys flying in from corporate, doing their annual "field visits" are blow-hards anyway! So rock-on, seemingly independent Express Lane! - I'll be frequenting your pumps from time to time, and so will the rest of Yelp nation - if'n they feel like it.

Had to check out the new Wawa. Very clean and orderly inside. Tons of parking and gas pumps…read moreoutside. All the staff were super friendly. Bathroom was clean. There was a free coffee bar and creamer bar due to it being their first weekend open. Coffee was great. Lots of hot food available to order too. I like the cream cheese pretzel and none were available, so I stuck with the coffee.

This is a brand new Wawa location located on Capital Circle and Northwest Passage. The gas is…read morecompetitively priced and the service is friendly. The inside has the usual convenience store items and they also have a food station for items like sandwiches and a lot more. Wawa is one of my go-to gas stations and probably the gas station brand that I like best. I would definitely recommend here and I give it five stars.

I had hoped to have some good background on this decades-old Frenchtown market but I'm coming up…read moreshort right now. I'd encourage anyone with insights on the history of this store to contribute. I do know, from the folks behind the counter these days, that it's been around for "over forty years" - I suspect it's well over that; my sense is that it's probably from the late forties/early fifties judging from its current layout/amenities. What has intrigued me for quite some time is the signage and its old-time font/coloration/layout. Having come three times over that past two weeks, I can say that this would be where I'd come if I were seeking out "the good stuff" for making up meals focused on commensality. Commensality is a good word that I learned recently. There's a great book ("Commensality: From Everyday Food to Feast") that delves into this important social act - one that I fear we experience less and less. Check it out. I associate the Fourth Avenue Super Market with commensality because the produce and the butcher-counter are chockful of items that simply aren't made for a single person - perhaps not even for a single family. Take, for example, the "Soul Bag". I'm not entirely certain what offal, cuts or livestock byproducts are within it - but I suspect that it contains the central cast of characters for a centerpiece dish for a large gathering of gourmands and gourmets alike. You don't buy the Soul Bag to take it back home and serve up two portions. At least, I wouldn't. Perhaps I'm overly romanticizing this store - that's quite possible. I fear that with the rapidly encroaching gentrification of Frenchtown, the Fourth Avenue Super Market risks being swept away within the coming decade to make way for something brighter and shinier. I hope that isn't the case - and that it continues to exist as it does today. If you love Tallahassee and history in general, I'd encourage you to come here at least once, if only to pick up a cold drink in the back coolers. Come on in and walk the aisles - and take yourself back in time.
