This CVS has everything a gal could need. I popped in for a few things I had forgotten and they had…read moreall in stock, thank goodness. I had no engagement with staff while in the store so can't comment on that bit. I took a Waymo so can't comment on parking either but I was a little confused at first by the different set up here. They have 2 stories! So if you're looking for something and don't see it on the first floor, head up the stairs and it'll probably be there. They do have an elevator, as well, if needed. By the registers, they have 3 Self Checkouts for easy self-serve shopping. One staff was monitoring the operations but it was a seamless experience for me. You just gotta keep in mind you are downtown so you may encounter unhomed people and all that comes with that.

I live close to this location and use it often. It's a smaller version of CVS because it's…read moredowntown, but it has pretty much everything I need. I especially appreciate everyone at the pharmacy and the pharmacist who do a great job. I get all my shots there. They are very welcoming. If you live downtown and can walk it's great. If you don't - beware, parking is pretty challenging.

This 7-Eleven sits nestled between Wild About music and a jewelry store with another convenience…read morestore next to that. They do offer some hot breakfast items and pizza slices along with some grab and go items, including donuts. They have a decent wine selection, and I was surprised the prices were not exorbitant. One yelper mentioned that homeless people will confront you at the entrance and that was true on my visit as well. They have an ATM inside along with a machine to copy keys. You'll see the usual weenie rollers and a modest coffee bar as well. If you're looking for a better food offering, try the royal blue grocery 20 feet away from their door.

Terrible. The clerk was horrible. I used the 7-eleven app to pay for my purchase, but the clerk…read moreembarrassed me in front of the other customers by grabbing my items and claiming I needed additional prove to show I paid. I have never felt so embarrassed in my life. This clerk gave me a hard time the night before as well. This 7-eleven location is right beside my hotel, but I will never return again. The customer service is severely lacking

I always enjoy dropping by a RBG. They have a lot of interesting and unique products, one of my…read morefavorites are the refrigerated chocolate truffle bars (there's a lavender one that is soooo very pleasant!). I've seen some of the items they sell here at Trader Joe's for eg but they have a lot of otherwise unique stuff. They do sell premade stuff as well, I saw someone sampling something at the counter. This isn't a big place and because it's more upscale things ARE more expensive here, I'd never do routine grocery shopping here. But if you're passing by, you can reliably find a native Austin beer, quick meal, unique snack, etc.

I have to give 5 stars because even though there is one employee that treats me with a cruel…read moredemeanor, the rest of the staff at this location is absolutely amazing. The store is always clean, neatly stocked, and the food and drinks they serve are top notch! Definitely worth the $$$

I live nearby and I go here every few days. The place suffers a bit from being downtown (higher…read moreprices and unkempt people outside) but on the whole they do fairly well. Contrary to another review, they usually have fresh fruit on hand; bananas in a basket and prepared fruit cups. They have a fair selection of beer, wine, soft drinks and coffees. They have sandwiches and other prepared food (e.g. giant $4 burritos) in the cooler. One time I had to ask for toilet paper and the guy brought it out from the back room. I suppose it took up too much space on the shelf. This is the alternative to Royal Blue, which has even higher prices, although Royal Blue makes some food in-house. On the whole, I prefer Second Street because Royal Blue has a weird vibe and some weird brands and this place is a regular store.

I frequented this store during my trip to Austin due to its location. It was in close proximity to…read moreboth my hotel and the Austin Convention Center, and without a car sometimes it was just easier to walk down the street instead of Lyft to a store or restaurant. Honestly unremarkable. An independent convenience store that knows it can charge more because of where it is. The staff were friendly enough, but the stock was kind of limited. That might be due to so many people being in town that week but they seemed to run out of drinks fairly quickly. It's also no fault of the store but it's worth mentioning right in front of their doors seems to be a popular hangout for Austin's homeless. I don't think we managed a single visit here without being asked for change. If you need a quick snack they are in a great location, just don't expect an overly pleasant visit.

I'm a big fan of Royal Blue and usually go to the one on Sixth because it's a closer walk from my…read morehouse. When I'm downtown and need something, I'll pop in here. Love the service and offerings. Clean store. Always have what I want and a lot of times things I didn't know I wanted!

There's a lot of Yelpers complaining about the high prices at this convenience store, but that's to…read morebe expected considering the high rent area of their location. This place does quite a bit of morning business with coffee and breakfast items and they have numerous seating options sitting directly outside their door. They consider themselves the best grab and go place around. They do have a limited craft beer selection along with a decent wine selection that sits and 10% to 20% higher retail than your average H-E-B. They also offer catering, but they do NOT have a public bathroom in case you're wondering. If you live downtown, this is a place you'll probably visit. Informative photos below to help you.

Royal Blue Grocery was the perfect stop for breakfast during my time in Austin. I was immediately…read moreimpressed by how clean and well-organized the store was, and the variety of food, drinks, and grocery items available was fantastic. I picked up a tea and a muffin, both of which were absolutely delicious. One of my favorite parts of the experience was sitting outside at one of the iconic blue tables and enjoying breakfast while taking in the atmosphere. While some items can be a bit pricey, the quality of the products, the cleanliness of the store, and the excellent customer service make it well worth the cost. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'll definitely be returning the next time I'm in Austin.

They also feature a solid coffee menu and sandwiches from what I saw. They have a few stools to enjoy your coffee (or food) and that was nice and refreshing. I was really impressed by the organization of the store and how easy everything was to find. Prices seemed fair for what they sold and you can tell a few locals who frequent the shop have a great rapport with the staff. It's a neat a little worth checking out especially when you're in need of a few items.

BRING EXACT CHANGE. BRING EXACT CHANGE. BRING EXACT CHANGE…read more In the heart of 6th St Madness, this shop sells gum & soda (conveniences). However, if you have anything larger than a ~$10, the cashier will probably not take it. And not take it with extreme prejudice, to the point of threatening to kick me out of her store if I didn't get out of her face with my $20. After patiently standing for 10 minutes while enough customers came through to break a $20, I better understood her position. You get drunk people. You get horny guys complaining that 3 condoms is "not enough! I need another pack!" Then explaining that he really needs AT LEAST 9 condoms. You get more drunk people. Now if I want gum, I'll break my bills in a nearby bar. Even a $10 is risky, it's best to have ones. & change.

THE CASHIER SEEMS TO BE DRUGGED UP…read more It's the worst customer service I've ever received in Austin. I was using the ATM on a Saturday night and after I finished my transaction I went to ask the cashier if the restroom was available for customers. She immediately stater cussing at me, so I told her in a very calm tone that she didn't have to be rude, I was just asking a simple yes or no question, she got even worst and threaten me with calling the cops if I didn't leave the premises. I think they need to hire someone with better customer service skills; there's a lot of nice people out there looking for a job. I am a business owner and very proud of offering an Austin typical friendly service, my customers love that.
