Just had an incident with your employee that decided he 'just said what was on his mind'. Lorenzo is a horrible employee to the point another customer came and apologized for his racist behavior. Update: I called Circle K HR and had a conversation regarding the matter with the area manager. She reviewed the tapes and spoke with the employee and manager. The next day, she called me to follow up, which was surprising, but the fact that she took the matter seriously was a pleasant surprise. I appreciated her professionalism and I will continue to support this station. I am amending the rating to a higher rating due to the fact this one bad apple isn't a reflection of all of my positive experiences I have had at this business. Life is hard and people can't just lash out and verbally be aggressive towards others. That experience ruined my day yesterday, but today is a new day and everything was addressed and made right I feel. Thank you for truly caring, and upholding a higher level of professionalism. read more

Circle K - gas pumps at a gas station - Gas Stations Near Me - Lake Forest, California

See all

Looking back on the reviews from the last year I see much hasn't changed with the rude employee still doing his thing. I thought he was just having a bad day, but it looks like every day is a bad day for him. Hope things get better for him, but I'll be avoid this store in the future. read more

Came here on 10/12/25 the black man that was working the register was so rude. He was on his phone and looked at me like I was inconveniencing him. Once I told him what I wanted he continued on his phone as he very slowly walked to where my item was. He then proceeded to look at his phone before finally getting my item. He never said a word like hello, here is your change or thank you have a nice night. He's RUDE and lazy. I WILL NEVER EVER COME HERE FOR ANYTHING. Less than 1/8 of a mile from my house.

Went in for an iced coffee this mornin. I like to get a x-large cup filled with ice to the top and then put my coffee over the top so it's in a polar cup. Well, my bad. The worker who is also in a grumpy mood thought I needed to pay for the cup I used to fill with coffee plus my polar pop. The good was the coffee was cold and refreshing. read more

The older guy that works the register is incredibly rude and always has an attitude. I would like to buy my stuff and go about my day without getting a hateful stare. The other workers are great though. read more

Friendly people and they have public bathrooms. Been going there for years now. Even that I live in Redlands. When I am in Lake Forest I stop by. read more

Watch out for this location. Misleading promos. They bank off you not paying attention at the register. Slimy. Only good thing is they honored the promo after making a big enough deal about read more

Today I had the worst experience. Guy at register over charging me. He would not even look at the price posted for polar pop. Kept telling me 2.29. Finally he just told me to leave and he'd buy my soda. Think he just voided it. Have been going to this location for over 10 years. I'll be going to a different location now! Very poor customer service read more

Broken pumps -so don't get gas here. Cashier confused with questions about the pumps. Long lines probably because of the pumps. Overall CF.

Some how , I get mistreated with two ladies at this location, rolling their eyes , charge me extra , refuse to return wrong charge and extra They are rude and horrible read more

Gas pumps frequently down. Receipt Paper always out. Keypads don't register bypass pin.

I stop here because the location is just so convenient and the prices in their convenience store are better than most others. Service is always nice and helpful here too. read more

African dude that worked around 5pm on Sun, aug 7 was extremely rude. Acting annoyed like he's giving out stuff for free. Hope others will have better luck! read more

Women with the older black lady with red cornrows working today is extremely rude no personal skills to speak of, I live across the street and come to this location all the time her Attitude is consistent that's the only compliment I could possibly give this woman. October 6th @3pm. read more

I go here because it's convenient, but I've had repeated problems with the pumps shutting off after pumping just a few cents of gas then having to start the process over. It sucks when I'm in a hurry and need to quickly grab gas on my way somewhere. Today it happened again, so I drove over to another pump, and that one did it as well, so I just left. I don't want to have to run my card 4 times to top off my tank. read more

Super happy with the service I got from one of your employees. His name is Jose and he was there Tuesday night time. He is always in such a great mood and super friendly. We got there to get our nightly coffee (before work) and it was nice to finally see someone in such a good mood and good spirits at a gas station. We usually get a grumpy man at that location. On another note, the place was very clean especially the bathrooms!!! read more

This place is the best!!! Friendly, accommodating and always service with a smile!!! Get my gas here anytime I need it! Stuart is the best!!! Stuart! Stuart! Stuart! read more

Very clean place clean bathrooms clean floors smells nice very good place to come and get a snack or a beer

Every time we come into this place the soda machine is DISGUSTING. Does it ever get cleaned? Circle K is known for their polar pops so to see the machine disgusting all the time is sad!! read more

This store has always had very slow service. As other reviewers have stated, you can't get out of there without waiting 15 minutes. But it's still close to my home and the location was convenient enough to deal with the line. However, today the employee behind the counter shouted at me and was so rude that I decided to tell her not to ring up my purchases and left. I will take my business elsewhere from here on out. read more

Andrew is an amazing attendant he provides the best customer service ever!!! He always has a smile on his face and has the best attitude!

My first time inside tonight, the worer was nice at first and told me something like I was closed and to use the window next time, nothing wrong with that, I apologized and offered to go outside he said it was fine. I asked if there was Apple Pay, machine was broken, agin nothing wrong. This is where it went rotten, I asked if I could go get my credit card, he let a ughhh and in a very annoyed snarky tone said what're go get it, came back in and apologized, said nothing and gave a nasty look. I work costumer service in the grocery industry so I know what Its like, and try to be as kind as possible. I don't care if this is cheaper or the only gas station open, I'd rather pay 0.25 cents more at a gas station by the freeway than ever coming here again. read more

Girl here was rude. No pumps outside would take my card. Went inside and said I think I backed up to pump 8 the one on the back left and she goes "well I don't know where your car is or what pumps the back left" then as I swiped my card it said waiting on cashier and she went to the other register to help someone else. Never getting gas here again. read more

Maybe I never noticed before, but nice job on having fuel gloves fully stocked. I know they are mostly used for diesel fueling but during this flu season and concerns with covid-19, it's nice to have a barrier to protect hands from fuel pumps touched by many! read more

Everytime I go into this store its ridiculous! You cant get out of here in less then 15 minutes at the bare minimum. Workers are hands down the most rude people I've ever had to deal with. ATTENTION WEIGHTS AND MEASURES!!!! This store has prices on the shelf that say 2 for 4. I get up to the counter and I'm charged 219 for each bag of candy. Once I say anything they tell me they just scan the items and dont have to give me the sale price. Also, the mini bottles of wine say 2 for 4 so my dumb ass grab the little 4 pack (because it was easier to carry) and the lady charged me the 4 pack price instead of what was advertised, refuse to give me the sale price and was extremely RUDE! I left there only getting the two small wine bottles cause she would give me the sale price. She wanted to charge me 12.00 dollars which is ridiculous. They have long lines and two people working and will never open the other lane even though you'll be standing there in a hurry with several people asking to be checked out. When I asked for a number to complain they said, sorry, were a franchise not a corporation. Although this may be true, again, so so rude. I've seen more people leave pissed off without their stuff and so unhappy its incredibly disappointing. This place is terrible. Dont ever come here. I'd rather drive 10 minutes out of my way then give them my money and be overcharged. Again! WEIGHTS AND MEASURES NEEDS TO VISIT THIS STORE ON THE LOW. What they're doing is illegal. read more

Bathrooms are dirty and disgusting to use. The lady that was working cashier was giving attitude when I was asking questions. Everyone else was alright. read more
