I was out of gas (meter showed 2 miles remaining) and no cash on me. Long story on why. Not enough to get me home and back. I was lucky to run into the owner of this Chevron on Alameda. She listened patiently to my story, gave me credit on trust and it totally saved and made my day. I am so incredibly grateful to Mazia (spelling?). This is a very convenient gas station that I have used for several years. Have consistently experienced good service. And with this latest incident, I would highly recommend this Chevron Gas Station if it's on your way. read more

"The man whose face does not smile should not open a shop." In addition to being the most outrageously expensive fuel in the Bay Area, California. 8 dollars per gallon, they offer poor service, and you are not made to feel welcome. read more

This Chevron station is located in a fairly busy area. It's a nice area actually. However, this Chevron does not even have public restrooms available. People like me depend on gas stations having restrooms as we travel for work. As I'm sure families and senior citizens as well. I just don't understand why certain gas stations refuse to provide such a simple service for the public and then expect us to buy anything there. I won't go much into the pricing, but it's absolutely ridiculous. They should be ashamed they charge this much for gasoline. The owner clearly doesn't give one iota about the community or integrity. Also, I noticed food on the shelves that had been there for so long that the coloring on the packages were completely faded due to being in the sun day after day week after week. I would avoid this location and go somewhere else where they take more care. read more

Most expensive gas I ever saw. Higher than European prices. It's like $2-$3 per gallon more than other Chevrons in the area, looking to price gouge from Silicon Valley types who are too busy to look at the posted prices. If I was running out of gas and passing this place, I'd still keep going and push it to another gas station. read more

Just a few cents short of eight dollars a gallon today. Thats three dollars more than the cheapest gas at the cheapest station. Baby Wrinkles. I feel like this gas station needs Connie Cung investigation. Or maybe a Seven on Your side with Michael Finny. Oh, how about call Anh Phoong. Something wrong just call her, right? Well, theres lots wrong here Ms. Anh Phoong. Your gas tank is on E and its been that way the last 20 miles. Thoughts of getting stranded on the bridge cross your mind and you wonder if this is the day you want to try out your new AAA membership for the first time. You pull in and its totally empty. You wonder if your going to be the one chump in the whole city to actually pump a gallon or two... the idea of topping it off is well off the table at this point. Will you chance it? What would you do? Word on the street is the owner hates his wife and set up this store and gas station with no customers just to get away from his wife. Hes an older guy and I could see it. Normally a wealthy gas station owner would hire a teenager to sit there all day for minimum wage. One other nit picky thing is if regular is 7.49 and premium is 7.97 I think that mid grade should be priced right in the middle with a price of 7.73.... but here they don't do that.... when they don't do that you could hypothetically fill with 1/2 87 and 1/2 premium... read more

Chevron - Gas Stations Near Me - Menlo Park, California

I would give '0' stars if possible. The gas prices just made the front page of the local paper...as an example of inflated (understatement) / ridiculous example of gas prices. It's beyond greedy and approaching criminal level. It doesn't stop there. If you dare...go inside and treat yourself to items that are being sold at a 50% markup...from sodas to oil. If there was any gas station to avoid (in all of Northern California)...this is the place. Who ever owns/runs this place should be ashamed of themselves. They are not well received in this beautiful community. No wonder it's Always empty. What a joke! read more

Chevron - Price gouging - Gas Stations Near Me - Menlo Park, California

Tried to get air in my tire before my 35 minute drive home. I ask attendant to please turn on air He said I had to pay 2 dollars unless I bought gas. Gas her today was $6.99 a gallon. Hahahha!! To my knowledge air and water is free in California. I was wrong you do need to purchase something or buy gas. He still didn't turn on air even after I asked nicely. Jerk!! read more

One of the worst gas stations I've ever visited. I needed to use a restroom and the gentlemen told me they didn't have a public restroom so I went across the street to Starbucks to use the restroom real quick and when I came back thethe station attendant came out and asked me if I pumped gas. I told him no he then told me to get the F out of here, don't park your car here. What a rude individual I will never go back to this gas station again. They lost my business. read more

Looking to pay $2 more than every other gas station in the Bay Area? Then today is your lucky day! This place is very consistent and rest assured you will always pay $2 more per gallon than every place else. Looking to buy expired snacks at double the price? You'll feel like you just hit the lottery because again.... This place will always have expired goods at double the price. The bathrooms here are also "broken" year round. The owner will point to the bushes behind the gas station to relieve yourself. read more

Chevron - Winning gas prices! You're sure to hit the high score when you fill up with a full tank - Gas Stations Near Me - Menlo Park, California

Little shocked to get to the register and see my candy bar ring up as $4!!! Thought I'd see what yelp had to say. Wasn't surprised to see a whole bunch of 1 star reviews. Not that you think you need to check reviews for a gas station, but ya don't go here read more

Chevron - Thursday 26/2022 Please tell me if this is being expired for almost a year Not only extremely expensive (everything) Never coming back - Gas Stations Near Me - Menlo Park, California

Wow. So stopped by here after a visit with grandma at Sharon Park, Starbucks was closed, so we came here for snacks and restroom. Their restrooms were closed b/c of covid, we were bummed but still grabbed some snacks. Highway robbery! Coke (Mexican) $3.21 2 Snickers ice cream bars 2 @ $3.99 = $7.98 (!!!) Funyuns (the bag that usually costs like $1.89 right? It was $2.99 Granted, he told me the prices (i didn't ask) before I purchased, like he knew he was over charging me. Instead of 4 snickers ice cream bars, we only got two for the four of us. The price of gas was also noticeably higher than other gas stations (thankfully we didn't need gas). Will not come here again for anything. read more

I start pumping my gas and walk inside and ask for the bathroom key. The idiot man behind the register looks me up and down and says "No it just broke, walk to star bucks!" I guess he thinks I'm homeless?? So I walk across the street while my car is pumping and Starbucks is closed at 630pm. But I guess he did not notice my almost 300k Brand new Meecedes Maybach. Picture attached. Plus this is the highest Gas station in all of the Bay Area! read more

Chevron - Gas Stations Near Me - Menlo Park, California

I was filling up about two gallons of gas, my wife really needed to use the restroom and couldn't hold it so I told her she should go inside. My wife is Asian but I didn't think anything of this at all! When she came back she said the lady said no bathrooms for non paying customers. I really am angry because we got gas and I feel as if it was because she was Asian. read more

Walked in to buy a rockstar. He charged me $5.50 for 1, of course I didn't buy it but I sell to them and I'm a Pepsi rep. All my stores sell it 2/$3.50 or $2.75 each. Not recommend to buy product from this place. Over charges you on purpose and doesn't understand the customers needs. C- read more

The Chevron Station at 3600 Alameda de las Pulgas is charging $6.29 for a gallon of supreme. Outrageous! Talk about gouging people! A poor working person can't afford gas at the prices they charge at this station. They should be ashamed of themselves. Vote with your feet....don't buy gas there! ab read more

These prices are insane! Who would buy gas here? Over a dollar above the going rate. Only a fool would buy gas here... read more

My travels took me this way and, even though gas here was almost 75 cents a gallon more than it should be (4.30/gallon) I said 'What the hell'. Walked in grabbed a red bull and small chips, normally $4.50 to $5 at ANY other gas station and said I wanted 20 bucks of gas. I was told "That'll be 29.75." They wanted $10 for a red bull and a bag of chips? That's insane! When you add on they are potentially one of the most expensive gas stations in the United States then it's just bad business! Drove one mile the wrong way for my trip and hit an ARCO on Woodside Rd. Gas was almost 90 cents a gallon cheaper, snacks were less than $4.50. I get the owners of this place want to milk the rich residents of Atherton and Sharon Heights, but this is crazy! No way I'd go there if I was out of gas, and I'll make sure no one I know does either! read more

I been driving for couple hours and I needed gas and I was in the area and found this gas station even though the gas prices are Tremendously ridiculous on price I stopped here and before I was going to fill up I asked him we're the restroom was he had told me that they don't have one I clearly added the photo and a lady was just coming out of the bathroom what a joke of a place discrimination at its finest read more

People are too cheap to clean there restroom they prefer to not let customers use it.

What a rip-off they want to charge six bucks for a protein drink? And four bucks for a protein bar? I understand they need to make some money but that's ridiculous! read more

If I could give this place zero stars I would. I've purchased gas here before and paid the top dollar they charge. I went today to ask for them to turn on the air and he asked if I had purchased gas today. I told him not today but I have. Since I didn't purchase gas today he was going to charge me to fill up one of my tires with air. Out of principle I walked out and will never buy gas from there again. read more

Place is a joke. Rip off! They charged an 87yr old lady for air in her tire. They're trying to take advantage of the location. Their customer service is a joke the older guy who works there is not nice! Everything is overpriced. I hope it switches owners to somebody who like customers. :) read more

I came in to buy a soda beverage de soda beverage cost $2 almost $3 I mentioned to the owner at the counter that I'm surprised you guys have customers due to the high price of gas this soda beverage went from $3 to $5 what a piece of s*** price gouging this guy ought to be sued! read more

Gas prices are the highest I have seen in the entire county. Owner/manager is rude. No bathroom

Please people don't visit this place I get off from work around 4:30 and I was so thirsty I pass by to get water and the cashier treats me like shit. Please people don't visit this store gas station read more

Please be aware that everything in the station is marked up. Rude attendant! 5 Dollars for a bag of chips that normally cost 2. Absolutely ridiculous. STAY AWAY read more

Was pretty shocked when the asshole attendant was suddenly yelling at me to leave when he accused me of loitering and not pumping gas. I have the receipt in hand, dick. Management needs an overhaul here. I will never buy gas or anything here again....despite living in the neighborhood. Fix your business practices. read more

This place is horrible. I was sick and the jerk wouldn't let me use the bathroom. What kind of gas station doesn't let people use the restroom. I had bought gas so I was a customer. Avoid this place. read more

The air station they are required by law to provide is in poor repair. Spent $4 in quarters and left with less pressure than i arrived with. Please fix. read more

This place gouges customers - gas is $5.29 per gallon! It's always much higher than other stations but this is horrible.

This is absolutely the most overpriced gas station on the planet. It would probably be cheaper to run out of gas and have AAA come and fill your tank then to get gas here. With the amount that they mark up prices you would think they'd be much nicer to the patrons who are dumb enough to shop here. I'm surprised they're still in business. read more

I already feel better to see from other reviews that I'm not the only one who has experienced this. Basically, this is how my conversation went today after an older female employee SITTING OUTSIDE ON THE GROUND walks in to meet me: Me: Hi, I just bought some gas do you mind turning on the air for me? Employee: It's $1.50. Me: I think by law you have to provide air to customers who buy gas. Employee: I didn't see you get gas. *me looking around not being sure what to do for a second* Me: Do you want me to show you my bank statement on my phone? Employee: *scoff* whatever. She turned on the air in the end but why does it take me having a debate in a Chevron to do so? She also made me feel like garbage. I know working at a Chevron isn't the most exciting job in the world, but if you hate it so much to feel the need to be mean to customers then find another job! read more

Are you ready for some fun? Go here and look at the price of the gas, as well as anything else inside this place. Everything is marked up, a lot. Price gouging in full effect! read more

This franchise sells off brand items and marks them up extremely high to the public, on top of this he manually puts in a price for some items without scanning them. Watch out for this! What a old nasty dirt bag that runs this gas station. I will never come here again. read more

I am trying to purchase gas and utilize the restroom, but he didn't let me use the restroom because of the color of my skin. The clerk behind the counter says that I have to purchase something first, despite the fact I was trying to purchase gas, but I wanted to use the restroom first. I am dressed in a business suit driving a Cadillac, yet my color of my skin, is preventing me from getting access to the restroom. Racist pigs! Dumb policy to use restroom. read more

I am shocked by how rude the guy is who works at (or manages?) this gas station. When I was scrubbing my car with the water provided next to the pump, he suddenly ran outside and began SHOUTING at me. Apparently, he thought I was taking too long wiping down my car and refused to listen to me when I told him I'd be leaving shortly. Instead, he took out his phone, shouted in my face, and threatened to call the police! WTF?! I was totally rattled and left in tears. On top of the fact that this gas station is wildly overpriced, it seems (based on my experiences and other reviews) that the guy seriously mistreats customers. Don't support this guy--drive further down the street to find other gas stations instead. read more

They are selling cough drop that is $1 at dollar store for $8. That is too much even for Menlo Park.

By far the worse rip off gas station around. $2 for a candy bar. Their gas prices are outrageous! Plus every time you go in they harass you about donations to some Afghanistan fund! It feels like a scam., ? Who knows but will not Ever go there again 3 strikes you are out! read more
