I mostly come in here for energy drinks and snacks, they have a good selection for a gas station…read more They also have clean-ish cans. Have you ever actually looked at the can when you buy from these refrigerated sections at gas stations? They are often caked in dust and grime right on top where you put your mouth, seriously it's disgusting. I always wipe them down anyway, but they keep their storage clean here and that shows a level of care you won't get at other local stations. The down side is how busy this place gets, and how poorly the staff seem to handle it. It's frustrating when a line is so long it's extending into the aisles, people can't browse the items and often cant tell where the line actually ends. To summarize they have a solid selection and prices, they also offer a rewards card I believe, but are dragged down by poor customer service. An extra mention, they have a redbox outside for those looking to rent movies.

Sometimes I hear people bagging on Thornton's gas but I'm actually not sure why. Watered down? I'm…read morenot sure I'd know the difference but I've never had any problems with it, and it is usually the least expensive in the Round Lake and Gurnee area, at least in my experiences. The store itself is really great. It always seems bright, clean and has a vast array of fountain drinks and additional syrups, my fave being vanilla. You can dispense individual flavored syrups (vanilla, cherry, etc.) into your fountain soda. Prices for these hover around a dollar depending on the size you choose, pretty typical. As someone else said, the staff is really friendly and jovial. One female clerk recently apologized to me on behalf of another customer for cutting in front of me, which I think was just a communication because I was actually going to get something else; but it's just nice that they notice things like that and care enough to mention it five minutes later, when I was being rung up in a separate line with a different cashier. How nice. :) It just the little things that make a difference sometimes. One of the things I like best is that because of how new and well-lit the last remodel was, I always feel safe. It may sound stupid, but I just feel safer here late nights than at other establishments at the same time of night. Oh, and I THINK this location is 24/7.

I have gone to this gas station for several years every morning for coffee and gas. I honestly…read morestopped going here even though it is the most convenient station for me. I have stopped going here about 3 months ago because I got tired of coffee either being empty or so burnt it taste terrible. I'm not a coffee snob by any means ( just not a Starbucks overpriced coffee fan) but one morning I went I told the girl working the coffee containers were all empty she actually tried to talk me into a flavor that she liked because she just made it and it was her favorite. Really? If you are going through the effort wouldn't you make all flavors? Got tired of everything either empty or broken so haven't gone back for a while. Figured I would try again about a week ago and same old stuff so don't feel bad driving by. It honestly used to be busy there and now don't see cars in there at all. I'm sure that the manager or corporate office is thinking it's due to the rough road driving in there (which is being replaced now) but it's due to the lousy service they provide. I don't think it's the people that work there I think it's the management that they have in place. Many times that I was there before there were 2 employees outside smoking (pretty sure one was the manager?) and everything was empty inside and the poor person inside was taking heat for everything many times. It's a shame, want to support local business but not if they don't care. There are many more places to get gas and or coffee.

I've been here quite a few times. Got to say I like this station! The price point is almost always…read moreundercutting the competition, often by a fair amount.

Not a great place at all inspectors need to be called and all. I worked there for two weeks. And…read moreduring that two weeks was hell. I was sick and my kids were as well and couldn't work on my day off so he fired me and hired somebody else over one day of me being sick from my kids. Witch it was my day off by the way. He will call u for absolutely no reason to have u do everything for him for 10 bucks an hour. Very rude to people and racist as well and not good for business. Everything is expensive and they make their own prices and 6pk cans. They also don't rotate items on shelf they will sell you expired and expensive goods n sodas. They had me sell liquor without a license. They didn't care when a drunk guy fell outside. Now that I have experience I'm gonna get a better gas station job. Cause they are overdoing it!! I've already made my calls to my lawyers.

Never open when they say. I'm here now at the gas station…read moresays they open at 6. It is now 6:42 am 5 others have come And gone. I walked her. So wanted to stay and get the things I came for. They have also closed earlier than 10 pm. Again I walk don't have a car. Wasted trip

When I'm in a hurry, this Citgo is the closest for me to grab lunch on my short route. The thing…read morethat annoys me about this gas station is there are always long lines with only one register open, yet there's 3 or 4 employees stocking in the store or filling out inventories on items. Really? Why don't people put their stock work aside, jump on a register, ring up the customers, and return to their work later. Customer service has to be a #1 priority in order for a business to survive.

So I recently moved 0.4 miles away from this CVS and as a previous Walgreen's snob, i was dejected…read moreand swore to only go in if absolutely necessary. I reluctantly signed up for a CVS Extracare card and switched my one prescription over. Well 4 months later, I end up here more than I care to admit! It is a perfect place to run for that one ingredient you forgot at the grocery store, the bottle of wine that you need on Friday night or, as in the case this morning, milk for the baby to drink. 9/10 times they have had what I was looking for. (They don't have tortilla shells... an assortment of other bread products but no tortillas.) I docked a star because sometimes cleanliness is an issue in this store and oh my Lawd, those receipts are the definition of deforestation. The employees are always friendly, helpful and attentive. And I roll in at maximum neediness, crying baby, hungover, stressed out, in my pajamas, etc. I haven't had any dealings with the pharmacy yet but I will later today. I am assuming they will also adhere to the high standards set by the front of store staff.
