9 Best convenience store in Fairfax, Virginia (VA) 2024

I have a 20 year old car that gives me an array of issues, and I have had plenty since I moved up to Virginia two years ago. My first interaction with Bill and his team was when one of my headlights decided to go out and I was changing them myself and having trouble with loosening and removing the rusted screws that probably hadn't been touched for years. I stopped by their shop and asked for a bit of help and since then I have been coming to them. That first encounter with them was so kind and humble, and I never forgot it. Bill takes his time in explaining what's going on with my car, and is always prompt with giving me updates. Not to mention his prices are fair for the area and the work is always trustworthy. I've tried a few other mechanics since I've moved around the northern Virginia area when their shop wasn't always in reach. I've found that the other places I went were far more expensive, and not as transparent about the issues they found which made me uneasy. I usually would call Bill to go over what they told me. I have always felt comfortable in the diagnosis Bill has given me with what his team has found, and I really appreciate when he teaches me about my car, because even though it's old I love it. There is no other mechanic I have felt more easy going around and confident in. ~Tiffany

First off, the machine wouldn’t read my card. Very finicky. Then I tried to squeegee my windshield and the first blade was horrible. Tried a second one. Horrible. Tried a third one. Horrible. Can the owners please put $40 into buying all new squeegees or is that too much to ask?! ~chaching821

Had a flat tire and had brad help me out with finding and patching the leak and went out of his way to check for I problem had and also did my state inspection while he was at it. Definitely recommend to get your service done here and will be coming back. ~Jonathan

With this shop being right down the street from where I work it's both quick and efficient. I brought in a vehicle I had just bought from Maryland for Virginia inspections and emissions and they took care of me quickly. On top of that they also replaced my air filter for me. I highly recommend giving this shop a try. They are all great people! ~Cullen

Great service from the pharmacy. The store have 50% discount on selected item from Christmas and some items over the counter like vitamins. No long wait when checking out. ~RCS

If only it was possible to give negative stars... Had an awful experience with the store and employee here. I was trying to purchase a VA lottery scratch ticket from the machine and it accepted my $30 in cash, but an error message popped up and used the credit but did not give me a physical ticket. So naturally, I tried to receive help from the employee. She was extremely dismissive from the beginning, stating that there was nothing she could do to help because there isn't a key to open it and that I had to call the number on the machine. She also said that the specific machine I used tends to do that (?). If that machine has a history of malfunctioning, please put a SIGN on it stating that so people don't use it! I asked for the cvs store number as an identifier for when I needed help and she told me okay but did not provide it. I left the store to call the number and they weren't of much assistance. Which makes sense, how are they supposed to return my cash to me over the phone?? I returned to tell her that and she accused me immediately of lying (that I didn't call the number, when I literally had proof in my call history that I did). She gave a lot of attitude and called the number herself and had the situation resolved within minutes after speaking with someone. She also kept rolling her eyes at me throughout the interaction, which I found extremely disrespectful and refused to give her name or to allow us to speak with another employee or manager. I got my cash back which is great, but I don't understand why she couldn't just help before I was forced to go all karen. I hate confrontation so this whole situation felt icky... Anyway, customer service here is an absolute joke. ~Ji

Worse customer service ever. If there was a zero they would deserve it. Avoid headaches stay away from this 7-eleven. ~edwin

This pharmacy was bad before but, since this has become Walgreens every prescription I have is messed up. Every refill is a problem. I am on auto refill with them and that never happens. They mess up a refill and I complain and then I get spammed with calls, texts, and emails for the next one. Not being opened on any day on the weekend is an issue too since my GP is opened on Saturday. Moving my prescriptions, as soon as, they manage to fix this last refill. I have one pill left and they have done nothing with the refill situation. ~Robyn

Don't usually shop at Walgreens. I do appreciate their serving as a provider of COVID vaccine doses and boosters. Their website for making a COVID vaccine appointment could use some improvement. It doesn't work properly with Google Chrome and filling out the consent form in advance does little good since the Pharmacy starts over when you arrive. ~David
