7 Best convenience store in San Mateo, California (CA) 2024

the worst to treat customers, my phone didn’t work with the passcode i had to take my mask for a second the security when off on me, that was ridicules! then the cashier wanted the pack of cigarettes back, i say i’m paying for it ! the security stood almost next to me, a monster like Sasquatch, i just left the pack of cigarette there and left, never to come back!! ~carlos

Bad experience, only one cashier available and a long line to check out, also I was double charged for two chimichangas, but I only bought two, not four, warning; check your receipts, it pays off ⚠ ~Angel

I attempted to return 4 unopened cans of baby formula today purchased at this store because my daughter was fortunate enough to outgrow sensitive formula and could use standard formula. The cans were 62 days past purchase, but with receipt and would not expire for 6-12+ months, and given the national shortage I figured any reasonable store manager would accept this return given that managers may accept returns past 30 days at their discretion. The manager brusquely told me that the store policy was on the receipt and that they weren't taking the returns. I know what the policy is, and I also know that this store is chronically out of stock of formula, so seems like a loss for them and the community to not accept this return. Luckily, the Samaritan house charity across the street was happy to take it so some infants will benefit. 3 stars actually brings up this location's avg. rating so this review is mostly to make a point. ~Garrett

Overcharged on two items out of three with two discount coupons taken at register but not applied to purchase. Poor Covid protocol at registers side by side with no separation and customers elbow to elbow. Avoid this cvs store for safety and economy. ~Melvin

Staff is very unfriendly. Had been buying gas here for half a year. One day I left my car for about 10 min during filling. The staff almost jumped on me when I came back, saying no parking here with a nose pouting attitude. But I was buying gas! I can understand Luis (the staff) might have had a long day that day. But his attitude was telling me “I don’t need your business”. ~Yanjin
