About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, a delivery driver pulled up to the 7-Eleven, puzzled by the neon sign glowing eerily in the parking lot. As he approached, the door swung open, and an old man with twinkling eyes invited him inside. ‘Welcome to my late-night party,’ he said, offering a warm cup of coffee. The delivery driver soon realized it was just another night for the friendly neighborhood 7-Eleven owner, who hosted impromptu gatherings for anyone passing by after hours.

2. Late one night, a little girl walked into the 7-Eleven, her eyes wide with wonder as she pointed at something glowing behind the counter. The clerk smiled and picked up the strange object, revealing it was just an old keychain flashlight. ‘What brings you here so late?’ he asked gently. The girl giggled, pointing outside where her teddy bear lay asleep in the car. 'He got lost,' she whispered, reaching for a bag of chips. The story became a neighborhood joke—everyone knew that whenever someone lost their way home, they could always find comfort at the 7-Eleven.'

3. One morning, while filling up at the gas station, a regular noticed an odd message on the store’s intercom: ‘If you see a unicorn outside, it’s not real—just our new mascot!’ A few minutes later, a delivery driver walked in, complaining that his truck was stuck in the mud near a strange-looking unicorn statue. The regular laughed and said, 'Don’t worry, mate—it’s just their new mascot!' Everyone had a good laugh, and soon enough, the unicorn turned out to be a promotional giraffe after all.

4. At closing time, a sleepy clerk locked up the store and headed home. Passing the gas pump, he heard someone whisper: ‘Fill me up, will ya?’ Curious, he turned around—but saw only the empty nozzle. Shrugging it off, he went inside for his coat. As he opened the door again, a deep voice growled from behind: ‘And don’t forget my change!’
