7-Eleven

Great for slurpees (childhood nostalgic fave) and junk food galore.
Red bulls, coke, candy, doughnuts, bubble tea?, chips.
Indulge in the magazines, cigarettes, and treavel essentials, cell charger cables (for those who forgot theirs and are on a sleepover, reference above –the travel essentials), toothbrush, floss, girl things, Guy things… Get it all here.

solid 3.5 stars, very convenient if you’re coming off the Cambie st. bridge, just stay on your right. Esp. on the way to the game or any event at Rogers Arena.
Plenty of metered parking on both sides.
bright store, high ceilings, one of the newer, cleaner ones.

This location is convenient.
Close to the bus stop at the end of the Cambie Bridge.
Just one things is if something going one at BC Place
or in the entertainment district it’s going to be a huge line-​up.
Fair enough regarding the location.
Everyone is always efficient and smiley.
One thing… Two chicks are (often) doing the 4pm to midnight shift…
They are always complaining about somebody or something…
PLEASE…
Do your ”gossip girls bash” AFTER the customers left…
Be professional… Always…
Just like everyone who’s working with the public…
For that I prefer the location on Robson and Hamilton.
This is close to this location anyway!

wake up be like… man i need something… starbucks…waaaaaaaa. line u so long! lemme come back later. go to 7−11…try their sausage sandwiches — good. in fact these dudes are just as good as the starbucks ones at a fraction of the cost. needless to say, i choose the 7 – 11 one over the starbucks one.
try it next time they are decent.

7-​Eleven always has what you need. even if you didn’t think you needed it :)

7-​Eleven is a chain with so many locations and with such late hours it truly lives up to the name convenience store. The Smithe location is set close to two stadiums, at the off ramp of a busy bridge and in an area with a mix of both residential and commercial zoning. As such whenever I go in here there is always someone waiting at the counter or meandering around.
The negatives of this location is that there is this horrible smell I can only describe as melting Teflon which I think may be exuding from the rolling hot dog machine. This always makes me gag a little and wonder how anyone could eat anything cooked here. Food should never smell like this, even hot dogs. Also, the lights are way to bright in here. Not that they should be dim, but maybe just put a cover on the naked florescent light bulbs so my retinas don’t feel like they are burning when I walk in here.
There are some positive things to say. I generally run in to use the bank machine, purchase transit passes, gum, gift cards, bags of ice and the odd item I have run out of, but am to lazy to walk to the grocery store for. They seem to have a little bit of everything you might need from toiletries to midnight snacks. This location is clean and the staff have always been courteous towards me. Last, but not least, they carry the famous 7-​Eleven Slurpee in various flavours which are delightful on a hot summers day or if your blender is broken and you promised to make your friend Bellini’s.
