"I don't like the fact that the cups for the foster are behind the counter and the worker there have to hand it to you"
"I don't usually write reviews but today August 27, 2020 @10:39a"
"This Circle K is very clean, with a large variety of snacks, hot and cold food and tons of beverages"
"The reason I’ll rate this place is the staff, they have to deal with a lot of garbage and have always been great to me"
"I go here pretty much every single day and have been for the past 5 months or so and the staff is very nice and friendly"
I don't like the fact that the cups for the foster are behind the counter and the worker there have to hand it to you. Last time I went there, the worker there was eating and he handed me the cups with oil from his food all over it and inside it as well. It was disgusting. They say they put it behind the counter because they don't want people touching all the cups even if what everyone actually touches is the handle of those froster machine which are not protected. I don't want people touching the cups either and even the workers there included. Even if they sanitize their hands. They should put those cups back where it was. The handle of the Frosters are not protected and that is what everyone touches for sure. The cups and covers are always backwards when it is where it's supposed to be. I don't understand how people will be touching all the cups at once. I hope those changes will be considered.
I don't usually write reviews but today August 27, 2020 @10:39a.m. I got yelled by this lady named "VICKY". At first,I've been very patient and answered politely to VICKY when she told me to go back and forth to the shelf and remained calm even when "VICKY" asked me to scan my barcodes after I redeem my coupons. But VICKY yelled at me. Telling me I didn't scan it correctly. VICKY won't even help me when I asked which 1 is wrong. Just answered me "I DON'T KNOW YOU'RE THE ONE WHO SCANNED IT". I am not asking for a concierge treatment or anything special since I know where I'm at. But at least VICKY has to do her job at least or just respect customers or treat them as human. Not sure how circle K hire this type of worker with an attitude problem.
This Circle K is very clean, with a large variety of snacks, hot and cold food and tons of beverages. Unfortunately, what soured my visit is the East Indian Owners attitude. He was following me around the store, asking me why I was there and what I was going to buy. I had already put something on the counter. He told me I couldn't take pictures and I explained that I was going to put a review on Google to bring him in more business as I liked the store. He basically told me to leave so I left my potential purchases behind and went to McDonalds instead. Parking is tough with such a small pay-for-play lot. Such rude behaviour is unacceptable towards a customer. Too bad! I won't be back.
The reason I’ll rate this place is the staff, they have to deal with a lot of garbage and have always been great to me. I usually come In after work at 2-3am and the guys are fun to talk to. The location and customers is out of the control of the staff and owner. They do a good job of keeping the place clean and in order. Good selection of snacks and drinks here. I wish something could be done about the parking lot, I am not going to pay for parking to run into this store for 1-2 minutes. I took that ticket and threw it the back of the parking patrols truck box. Sue me.
I go here pretty much every single day and have been for the past 5 months or so and the staff is very nice and friendly. They do a great job of keeping the place clean and stocked. They have a great variety of snacks and household items too. They have a frozen food section, big pop section, a nice cooler for sandwiches, many different flavours of slush and fountain pop. They have a big island full of hot dogs, taquitos, nachos and smokies. They also have great coffee !! I really like this place a lot!
Great 24/7 location in the downtown area, and it’s conveniently located beside the C-train with complimentary parking stalls in their lots for those who drive. The inside of the store is clean, big, and well stocked. The only downside is the nature of this corner/area - just a little bit shady. Also, the counter staff just stared at me as I walked in, which made me feel like I wasn’t particularly welcomed.
good for convenience as it’s near a train station, decent staff and good selection of food. As for negatives, lots of crackheads and shoplifters in and around the store which can be chaotic at times. They sell expired food sometimes too. For example, some of the pop selections taste like water so you kinda need to test the waters before purchasing a pop. They are cheap in price though which is good.
Maybe it was just the one person I asked that left a sour taste in my mouth but I was having a medical emergency and I needed to use a washroom urgently and he told me I couldn't and there was nothing he could do, I would of even bought something if it meant I could use the washroom but to turn someone away in an emergency is digusting
Been into the store a few times to purchase water [Voss]. Been fairly quiet, and in and out of the store very quickly. Good to see the Covid safety practices in place to protect the staff, one drawback that I saw was not hand sanitizer for customers coming into the store. OIher than that, staff was friendly and professional.
It's a good stop for most of your hungry and thirsty needs, get a large pizza and a two liter of pop for 12 bucks, 'get them to cook it it's pretty large' they're always friendly and helpful, the few months that I have been frequenting the store I've had no problems. it's a very convenient store when you need it.
I have been using this location for many years. I have always been treated with respect and kindness from staff. VICKY has been great every time. It can get busy and there are lots of homeless people around but just stay alert and be safe and you will find it a good experience at this location.
Definitely want to avoid this place if you can help it. The area is quite sketchy even during daylight. Many people appear to be drunk or on drugs.The small parking lot in the front has a parking stall dedicated for police cars. It's affectionately known as "Crack Macs" for a reason.
Front counter guy with the turban was very nice! Greeted us with a smile and kind words as soon as we walked in the door. Then knew exactly where the items we asked about were. Store had all the items we wanted. Open twenty four hours a day! Also has a Subway sandwich shop inside.
Worst customer service experience I’ve ever had. I understand they deal with a lot of rude people, but man waiting for the clerk to finish her conversation before I pay, and then interrupting what I’m asking for to once again talk to the person. Attitude city.
The worst store i have ever been to . The lady working there on counter was rude . I went to buy something and requested her to use the washroom but she said no and later i said its for the customers she said go complain about it like she don't care.
I'm upgrading my review because the Circle K corporate office reached out to me in order to help me find my lost glasses. Unfortunately, I was still treated really rudely by the store clerk at the time, so I can't go all the way to five stars.
It has earned a terrible nickname "Crack Macs"... The reason is all the drug deals that go on upstairs. Downstairs is a legitimate well run business that is always a good place to get snacks / drinks etc. The staff are very helpful.
"There couldn't be a dirtier convenience store in Calgary" Mac's on 7th ave: "Hold my beer and watch this" The staff is the only thing holding up the 2 stars. What they have to deal with daily and nightly... respect.
Absolutely hate the name it has acquired! It's a place for all to go day or night , yes there have been issues and there will probably be more but it's down town and it 100% better than it's been for some years now!
Store is great! Usually always stalked and the staff are very nice. Unfortunately it has a bad name because of the people that are loitering around there but not the stores fault . As a whole very well run!
The homeless are every where not just here, do we should get that out of the way. Ask for the store it's great and for the most part the staff are just great. Very helpful if you need to ask anything.
This place is famous. For where it is and what it goes through in a day I’m amazed at how clean it is inside. A testimony to the employees. If you go here enough, you will see things. Good luck.
A very rude staff was there when I visited on Dec 20th at 1:40am, I have been coming to this place since quite sometime never had issues.. the staff today was using abusive language.. ridiculous
The aggressive homeless people and drug addicts make this place a class act atmosphere. 10/10 will return. Seen my fair share of fights in and around this fine establishment. Love the staff.
Store looks good but a lot of people in the area are nasty. Wait until cops are on site to check the surroundings to limit your potential issues with the people in the area.
Love this place! Very clean and friendly. The owners even learned my Name! Great place to grab a snack or for picking up that thing you forgot while doing groceries.
Get in, buy your stuff, and get out. If you hang around too long you will probably end up being robbed, stabbed, or bear sprayed - or any combination of the three.
Crack Macs is a staple of Calgarys downtown night scene. Come for a yummy Sandwich and get an 8ball hookup to ensure your night is Calgary Stampede approved!
Showed up at 12:30am on Feb 16th. Watched the clerk wave to me and point at his 29 minute break sign. Won't be giving them my potential business again!
Lots of vagrants hanging around, the subway upstairs is sketchy at best Horrible service at subway. This whole place is disgusting, don't come near
Wanted to buy a snack. Tons of fake advertising, prices are triple, not friendly area. Their mistakes they put on you. Avoid this place
Pathetic manager ever I have seen. No sense to respond. No curtsey to solve customers problem. Rude behaviour. Never go to this place.
Probably the most unprofessional group of hacks like to them basic common courtesy is far beyond them don't waste you're time
Type in 'crack macs' in maps and it will literally bring you to this store's official location with its street name …
Tried to go there with a friend and was denied for no reason. Meanwhile they are letting in groups of 2-4. What the fuq
Some of the worst customer service you will experience in Calgary. The cashiers are rude and quite ignorant.
A very convenience store indeed, opened 24/7 AND there's a subway upstairs too, which is also 24/7.
Thanks for not letting a bus driver use the washroom who serves the city hours a day on road.
Pretty great selection. I wish the city would do something about this location though.
It's open 24 hours. It's handy. The staff deserve medals for all the abuse they take.
Nice helpful staff. Store nice and clean since the park across the street is gone.
The crackheads tweaking outside is 10/10 entertainment when drinking polar pops.
This store is hit and miss, as it depends on who's working behind the counter.
Store is open 24/7, staff are friendly and there's a subway upstairs as well!
Home base! The staff are usually nice. The area can be.....busy, let's say.
They put up with a lot of bad people here, kudos to them for still smiling!
Pls Crack Mac's still being a location result for this place …
Would frequent more if they could get rid of the people begging
Homeless people in and around. Slurpee here is worse than 7/11
Very Busy place. Slurpee and soft serve ice cream is great.
Colloquially known as the "CrackMac's", you'll see why.
Very poor. I would like to give no stars to this store
I think a zombie tried to approach me the other night
Quite possibly the best crack I’ve ever smoked
They have the best raspberry Slurpees ever
Don't bother if you want chili cheese dogs
Worst service ever got treated like dirt
Stay the hell away from this place
Staff are respectful to costomers
They look out for the regulars.
Always open. Cashiers are nice.
the cashier is pathetic
Friendly staff
trash cashier
Nice location
Ok
