Initially, QuickChek stores were mini-supermarkets with mostly grocery items, snack foods, delis, candy, milk, bread, soda, medicated products, some prepackaged meats, and a small produce area.

QuickChek hosts an annual hot-air balloon festival in Readington, New Jersey, which runs the last weekend in July.

On January 26, 2010, a clerk at the QuickChek at 1296 Easton Turnpike in Branchburg, New Jersey, called the police about a suspicious man in the store.

[2] Officers arrested Lloyd Woodson, and found in his possession and in his motel room a large weapons cache that included illegal weapons and ammunition, a detailed map of Fort Drum, and a red-and-white checked headdress that police said resembled a keffiyeh worn by men from parts of the Middle East.

[3] Branchburg Police Chief Brian Fitzgerald later praised QuickChek clerk Linda Yannazzno and employee Michael Murray for their alertness.
