Excellent selection of car fuels, with the option of diesel, or petrol with various octane levels. The prices are clearly displayed, and they have live counters that show you both the volume of gas, and the money spent, in real time as you refuel. The pumps accepts credit card, but are a little functional, however, the lack of banter is more than compensated for by the memorizing spinning of numbers as the tank fills up. There is a large roof covering the refueling area so you won't get soaked in rainy weather as you refuel. The adjacent store has the usual selection of snacks and energy drinks. My car has often arrived here with the fuel gauge light on orange, but has always left satisfied with a full tank of gas.

I drive bus for mountain man mikes and I use this place for diesel, they have enough room for an rv and the staff are nice if your not a dirtbag and treat them nice and friendly. It's a 6 minute drive to basically anywhere from here too, best location, and their bathroom and store is decent I actually drink the coffee but they have no flavor cream:( haha if that's the worst thing I can think of then it's still a win!

  • Leo Scarff

I bought two gift cards, and that are set up behind the counter and behind the clerk. They were bunk cards. The clerks tried to tell me it wasn't the cards I purchased there, yet it was a matter of the cards being switched. The card company is replacing them. Thank goodness! The cards were supposed to be gift, it made me very disappointed that they wouldn't take responsibility.

  • Brody Isaak

I’m not going to fault this Shell location on their current price per litre as this is commonplace across the city. The reason for the poor review is in the hands of pump 5, this pump decided to hold my credit card hostage for almost 20 minutes. I have not chosen this pump since and will rethink this negative review if this pump gets replaced or repaired.

  • GlennRod Scharf

It's okay service, BUT I could hardly fit between 2 things (probably an ice freezer and a metal container containing propane tanks or other stuff), and although I see about 6 inches room that they could move it over to give customers more room to pay at the little window at night, they should take this advice and do so.

  • Marc

For more than 30 years, I fill up at SHELL stations. However, this particular service station has a ridiculous specialty. There are constantly people smoking on the property, even throwing their butts towards the pumps. I mentioned it several times to the staff, however, they are completely unimpressed.

  • Khalil Humam

Update: first time in my car, I got check the emission sign after I filled up my car with this junk and used it for a week. Check the image. Old review: The map mentioned that the regular gas is at $1.68 at this location, but it was at $1.77, which is a big difference ! Surprise you're fooled!

  • Mahalia Sanchez

Worst experience ever. It's the second time I go to this gas station and there is always a problem. Their pumps don't work properly and I ended up leaving with no gas. The staff at the store tried to help but at the end they didn't care and were condescending So frustrating! I'll never come back

  • Lavi Kaler

They never open their restrooms from 2-3 months. I don’t know which SPECIAL PLUMBER they need for maintenance. Every other gas station washrooms are open. I guess they are just doing it to avoid cleaning and making people fool. Worst experience. Will never recommend anyone to go there.

  • Ange Serena

This gas station sold me a batch of bad fuel allegedly. I have been having car troubles since refueling there. Soon after the station was closed and cordoned off for a few days. I contacted Shell Canada with my concerns and they never got back to me.

  • Ryan Adams

When pumping gas, make sure your windows are up and your doors are locked! My wallet was stolen last night! The station is well lit and the employees were helpful...but there are questionable people milling around all the time...

  • Grace Gavina

If I can give 0 stars for this station I will. The one at cashier is so rude. Customer service is so low. They don’t have the knowledge of their product in the store and no manners at all. Never going to this store ever again

  • Lovepreet Singh

On 24 March at first I came at 1 am and guy was sitting in rest room and I wait for 10 minutes and then again I came at 4 clock and we wait for 7 minutes he was not there all ways this happened so please take care of this

  • NEAT ELECTRICAL LTD

I always Love to Visit this Best Gas Station in Vancouver .Too Many Homeless near that Area and throw garbage here and there but that gas station is always Clean. This is Very BG Location .Staff is Very nice and helpful.

  • Noelle Kristian

Ridiculously incessant borderline abusive credit card salesperson getting in my face at the pump around 9pm tonight. Seriously felt like she was insane and would not take at least 15 refusals as a No.

  • Jeffrey Timmins

Bought 2 pack of Pall Mall Bold xl. $32.00 something. I think $15.00 or $16.00 a pack. I usually pay #5.00 for a pack of Rolled Gold Red, from a friend, which is alot cheaper than the gas station.

  • Andy Chau

Consistently either gas pumps or tire pressure machine out of service. With no signage to tell customers, until they have to walk inside. Staff are horrible are this location as well.

  • Chris Meier

Gas propelled my vehicle effectively. Pump was broken had to pay inside. Counter person was friendly, but, put my payment to the wrong pump, had to go back inside again.

  • Chezcookies

Amazing. I got several different contagious diseases at an undisclosed corner of the store. Would recommend if you looking to catch a deadly virus and or diabetes.

  • Spud Food x.

Please keep the washroom running. As a company which uses your gas card for its fleet, it's unacceptable not to let its drivers use the washroom.

  • Thomas Morison

The gas station attendant made me feel absolutely horrible just for being $0.25 cents short and gave me a hard to for having cerebral palsy.

  • Holly Foxcroft

Reliable, easily accessible while traveling south on Main Street or west on Second Ave. Good selection at the attached convenience store.

  • Sandeep singh Sran

No public washrooms for customers .. they can only take money from customers and no facilities . Customers service was not good too rude

  • Tatiana San Martin

Stopped to buy a snack, had to wait for 10 min lined up. Inside looked dirty, untidy and no alcohol gel or similar to use for hands.

  • Mike Africh

These pumps fuel at 1/3 the speed of a normal station, it's been almost a year and everytime I end up here it's the same

  • jimmy chu

Very busy station near downtown core. Sometimes their early evening gas price is higher than other stations not far away

  • Libby Park Herman

Convenient location if you are heading to East Van & low on gas. Use your Air miles card and get a 5¢ a litre discount

  • Anna V

Does not have a car wash! Please edit the description! Drove all the way there to find out car wash was never there...

  • shoaib ahmad

I call them to ask the price of gas but the pump staff is very rude. He didn't talk with me and this is Indian man.

All is good except the window washing water is not changed periodically. There was no window cleaning tool. Kindly
