7 Days Food Store

This is our go-​to-​spot for basically everything! Milk, fire logs, scratchers, you name it! Abe, the owner, is so nice and helpful! He really cares about his customers experience thee and goes out of his way to take care of us. Ryan, who works the night shifts, always has a smile on his face and is nice! I highly recommend this liquor store. It’s so nice to have someone remember your name and ask how your day is going and doing your shopping there!

I used to live right down the street from this place. It’s where they shot the primary McLovin scenes from ‘Superbad’. I always loved going in, dropping something in the back and yelling, «Fuck my life!»
Nobody ever seemed to find that as funny as I did.
Anyway, great liquor/​convenience store. They’ve got bottles of everything, lots of ice cream, plenty of candy, and a few other necessities strewn about. Oh, and they have lotto, as well as plenty of free parking.

Here’s a little strip mall that the wife & I frequent quite often. (Only a few short blocks away from our place).
It holds the wife’s mani/​pedi spa:
4.5 star — Sushi Nishi-​ya:
3.5 star — Thai BBQ:
A dry cleaners; a barber shop, a beauty salon… and most importantly MY one-​stop liquor, wine & craft-​beer shop…
7 Days Liquor/​Food Store.
Why is «Food» even in the name of this establishment, I have no idea. I’ve never been past the 1^st 2 rows & have only visited the back beer fridge on several occasions when needing a cold one. At least once a week I visit the craft beer shelves. Abe (proprietor) keeps a nice inventory & on a usual rotation keeping the shelves fresh with different craft bombers (22 oz. bottles). Maybe the «food» part is the candy, Slim Jims or the bag o’ chips that catch the corner of my eye at times… who knows. Hell, there could be whole little market past those 2 rows for all I know.
Whenever the wife gets a hankering for wine I make a quick trip over here & more often than not, Ryan is behind the counter. I say «…the wife would like some wine please.» If he’s not terribly busy, he’ll leave the counter for about 30 seconds & come back with a couple bottles. His choices are spot on as the wife has never complained about Ryan’s selections. Sometimes they’ll have a «buy one bottle of wine get the other for 99¢». It’s kinda like BevMo only 94¢ more.
If the wifey is getting her mani/​pedi spa treatment a few doors down, she always stops in to get me a craft bomber. Gawd I love my wife!
If you don’t see a bottle that you’re interested in, be sure to let someone know. Abe will try (and try he might) to get it into the store.
I never leave w/​out buying a lotto ticket. «Good luck to you!» is always their parting phrase. I always reply, «No, good luck to US!» Remember, if I win, 7 Days gets a percentage. I think of everyone who works here at 7 Days as friends… and I like helping out my friends.
* Private parking lot they share with all of the above establishments. Never have I been here & not been able to find a spot.
* SUPERBAD filming location! That one-​hour photo kiosk in the parking lot was a location prop. You won’t find it here.
* Revisit the movie… get your Hawaii Driver License ready & stop on in.
Cheers.

I am a wee biased because I live a block away. I do not go to 7 Days for bread or milk, I go there for BEER. The owner is full into ordering craft beers and especially those from the local area. They are about to offer Hangar 24, Golden Road, Bootleggers (from Fullerton) and a bunch I do not recognize. Now, when I shop there, I take my time to see what is new. If I would like to see something I do not, the owner will see if he can order it for me. That is why I worship there. Service baby!

This place is awesome, convenient, and the people who work here are super nice.
Also, yes this is the place where McLovin got punched in the face in the movie «Superbad» which is a fun little fact when you come in.
Anyways love this little place! Thanks guys for being so chill and always carrying my candies/​drinks of choice!

This is a movie trivia review — I haven’t been lucky enough to make a pilgrimage yet. But the 7 Days Food Store is second only to the Quick Stop in teen-​film lore. It’s where the liquor store was in Superbad.
Yes, that’s right. 7 Days Food Store is the birthplace of the phrase «F— my life!».
