Rear view; stands on the Penninsula created by Riverside Dr. & Delaware Ave. & 96th St. (Bridge to Jenks) Born & developed right here in Tulsa, QuikTrip has become a phenomena just about anywhere it goes. They are all 24/7 except one. I have to say, I don't fully understand it. The current layout of most stores has a 16-pump island (many in Tulsa are older and have far less pumps), a large c-store with central cashier stand; candy, snacks on one side, QT's own "QT Kitchens" goods on the other with a huge soda fountain area. They typically set the pricing in our metro, usually the first to go down in price and the last to go up. Sounds great, right? It is, but the constant crowds, lines for pumps during rush times, and risky parking lots (try getting into the parking at 61st & Lewis at all during lunch time...and if you make it in, try backing out of a space without getting creamed) keep me opting for the competitors across the street--often with no one at them!! QT is also ranked in the Top 100 Best Places to Work each year. This one is on Riverside in South Tulsa. You won't find QTs very far from the Tulsa metro because they concentrate in large cities. They also have a spoken agreement with the 7-11 franchise in Oklahoma City not to infringe on each other's territories. Having said all that, they do offer a large soda fountain, wide coffee selection, big array of bottled/canned soda/energy drinks/juices/milks/specialty drinks (that probably outdoes most similar competitors), made-daily, fresh donuts/cinnamon rolls/long johns/pastries in the morning, fresh sandwiches/hot dogs/taquitos, etc. for lunch thanks to QT Kitchens division. They also have drug-store type convenience items like gallon milk, eggs, etc. so you can skip that "quick" visit to Walmart. So I get it a little--they have their benefits... they might just be missing the drive-thru window! Sept. 20, 2008- QuikTrip celebrates its 50th Anniversary at the River West Festival Park (near the amphitheater on the west bank of the Arkansas), with a concert featuring multiple groups, including locals Hanson and a fireworks show that will supposedly out-perform our city's 4th of July set! QT knows how to party.

this was at my favorite coffee spot. my father used to mail me bags of their coffee before tennessee finally got on the ball and opened a franchise here. this one is very close to my house and for a while was a regular stop. i noticed a car parked out back unloading supplies when going through the drive-thru, the tags were from MA...not really surprised. farah was nervous about having her picture taken, stating she doesnt like to take them. thank you for indulging me...
