Strange things are afoot at the Circle K.
For those on the east coast not familiar with Circle K, think of it as a ghetto 7-11. I know it's hard to imagine such a thing, but such a thing exists. But they had cold bottles of water, a nice selection of cold beer (with a walk-in beer cooler) and as the other reviews state, a good place for people watching. If you want a taste of what Phoenix is really like, I think you'll get it in this neighborhood, at this Circle K.
And oddly, after getting back from the west coast, I've noticed that Circle K is now here in the V-A. Go figure.
