You can choose the bread you want as well. I also grabbed a bag of chips. But these were all separate prices. Too bad there wasn't a special lunch price of sandwich, chips, and a drink. I guess they don't get many customers to make that a thing. I just came by again (December 20th, Saturday) and was informed that the deli portion wasn't open today sadly. So they aren't reliant on that aspect, they should have posted a sign outside to inform people. I just bought some chips for 2.99 -- which is not bad compared to grocery store prices but the bags are smaller and less is given as well so take that into account. At least they accept cash! And drinks are refrigerated so they are nice and cool and refreshing if you were to buy one.

This place gets very high marks on Yelp but I was a little dubious. But it feels great when someone exceeds your expectations. The Reuben sandwich I ordered looked fairly ordinary but it was excellent. I loved it and literally wolfed it down. The basic turkey and cheese sandwich was fresh and delicious. The Italian sandwich (which included your usual assortment of Italian meats) was great. All of the breads used and ingredients were very fresh. I saw them scooping fresh avocado onto the sandwiches. That is what I like to see. They are not skimpy with anything here. These sandwiches are not life-changing but they are very well-made and delicious. The generosity with their ingredients is appreciated. Well worth a visit.

Situated in its own dedicated parking lot along the main road within Solana Beach, CVS gets quite a bit of foot traffic from pedestrians out on their daily walk, run, and swim. The lot is typically vacant for shoppers so it's a convenient stop to get things quick. I came in specifically to stock up on sunscreen during my visit to San Diego county as I had forgotten to pack it in my luggage. When you're in sunny San Diego, you better lather up before you burn! As I walked in the store, the staff greeted me and as I was browsing the aisles, they inquired and directed me to where I needed to go for the sunblock options. I appreciated them taking time out of their morning restocking and inventory runs to help me out. The sunblock section was organized and had nearly every brand you could have wanted including the Blue Lizard one we typically use. Sprays and lotions were available with varying SPF ratings. To top things off, many of them had deals to earn you additional CVS cash that can be used at the store for future purchases. When I went to go pay, they primarily had self checkout kiosks. It was quick and easy but should you need any assistance, the staff are at the ready to get you sorted. Overall, CVS shines in its convenience and this one is well stocked for all of your everyday needs. What truly makes the difference for me was the level of customer service offered from the first step in the store to the checkout process. I was satisfied with my experience with the store because of its friendly staff and the abundance of options for each type of item. When the need arises, CVS has what you need when you need it!

The two guys that (I'm assuming) run the store are genuinely nice and do exactly what they're supposed to! If anyone has ever worked in customer service - you would know how absolutely exhausting it is to work with people ALL DAY. God forbid a liquor store at that... Cut them some slack, seriously. As for the actual products, I can't say much about the alcohol but the selection of snacks is honestly great! Lots of non-alcoholic drinks + a small selection of essentials (like batteries for example). I always come here for snacks and drinks. Easy in and out, no hassle, everything is set up very clearly organized as well. *As for the "labubu review", this is LIQUOR STORE. Of course it's going to be fake. Come here with the expectation that it's a liquor store, it's honestly fine and has everything it's supposed to.

Making it very clear they don't want to be there or even spend two minutes checking you out on their overpriced goods. I'm a block away, and after two years, I'm done. I won't spend another dime there. I'll drive two blocks east to see a fellow human being who smiles and is welcoming. This life is tough for us all, I finally asked "Do you not like working here?" And he went off on me, taken aback by the question...then said "I've been here all day" ...i responded with I spent all day working too and I still managed to show kindness to others, especially customers" he obviously didn't like that but I don't care. I'm done. We can choose where to spend our hard earned money and I won't spend another cent there. I hope their hatred of the job encourages them to sell and the next owners are good people. I'll go back then.

I came yesterday for a carwash - and unfortunately they closed early. But the owner responded to my…read morereview right away and apologized, and said they would make it right today! Just went back and got a fantastic wash. My car was filthy and it looks (mostly) sparkling now! (I say mostly because I didn't opt to pay for a full detail, which my car really needs - they have those services too but for today I got exterior, dashboard, mats, wheel, etc., but not the seats). Anyway, this is my fave place to get a car wash. It's much more spacious than the one in DM Highlands and they do a great job. And you can get Starbucks next door while you're waiting, and they have shady seats while they're working on your car. They really gave it a ton of attention - I was there for almost an hour and it's amazing how clean it is. The Mideastern restaurant that was inside (and was fabulous) has closed, and I haven't tried the new place yet (Mexican I think), but that's another thing you can do here while you wait. Thanks, SDG&Carwash! And yes, if you're going around 4:30, you might call to double-check that they are staying open. But it apparently was a one-time thing. It's nice and cool in the morning anyway, so I'm glad I got this out of the way and have a clean car for the rest of my day!
