This spot has been a few different names, but was recently bought, renovated completely and is now…read morecalled Gas Express. The new owners completely gutted the interior and refurbished it, while giving the exterior a much needed coat of paint and facelift. The new owners are Hispanic and the items they carry are geared a bit more to that culture.
The convenience store has good selection of beer, wine, and sodas. Most importantly for me, they now carry glass bottle Mexican Coke made with real sugar!! They also have Mexican Fanta in a bottle and a variety of Jarritos Mexican sodas.
They have big variety of candy, snack foods and chips. And much to my chilehead delight, a bunch spicy Mexican snacks that I usually only see at Super G or a tienda. Prices seem a bit higher than most local stores that sell similar items though, but hey, it's a convenience store so you're paying for convenience yeh?
Another great feature is their selection of fresh fruit and vegetables. I have picked up a fresh mango and blue berries here. Most items are geared toward the Hispanic market. They also stock a lot of staple items on their shelves which is geared toward Hispanic cooking as well. Very nice when I run out tortillas and dont feel like driving into town.
They also sell lottery tickets but not scratchers. There are vapes and smokes up front if you need your nicotine fix.
The girl that works there the majority of days is super nice and polite. I just wish she would stop calling me sir, makes me feel as old as my knees tell me I am instead of how old my mind thinks I am.
