Circle K is a worldwide convenience store chain founded in El Paso, TX, and now headquartered in Quebec, Montreal, Canada.
It's intriguing to walk into different countries and see how the same convenience stores (7-11, Circle K and probably Family Mart being the best examples) carry vastly different products. Mexico City has dozens of locations and they really come in handy for picking up snacks and drinks.
This location is in the Juarez/Zone Rosa neighborhood and close to a number of hotels and restaurants. Pretty small, only a couple mini aisles of merchandise, a lot of spicy chips and snacks, a wall of chilled drinks, bottled water, some canned and packaged foods, a cooler for ice cream bars.
There is a credit card minimum though I didn't catch how much this was. They definitely don't take card for a $16 peso purchase, which I learned the hard way. That being said the lady at the register was kind enough to wait for me get cash as she was closing up the store.
Good to note: the sign outside says "open 24 hours" but as I mentioned this location does close at night, I think around 9pm or 9:30pm. read more
