    Gas lanes

    Costco offers some of the best prices for gasoline in the area. There are 11 pumps allowing 22 vehicles to be filling up at the same time. Despite that, expect lines. Because of the value and cost savings, people line up and it is always busy. Go at off times if you don't like to wait, or go elsewhere and pay a bit more. The location is kept clean and they always have an attendant on site. Highly recommended if you have the time to wait.

    Costco Gas: Gas hoses being pulled around the cars: customers/cars driving PAST the pumps to drag the hoses around the vehicle
    Lara K.

    Costco gas is normally priced better than other gas stations however here are a few facts to consider. 1. Lines are usually long, so patience is needed. 2. There are no window cleaning amenities as I presume that would slow the lines down too much and impede on the flow of traffic. 3. The worst part about Costco gas, for me, is that they allow customers to travel-on to any pump regardless of which side of the car has the fuel tank. This is the dumbest of dumb and dumber actions. Why? Because the people to whom drag the fuel hose over the top of their vehicle and or around the back of their vehicles, cause a butterfly effect of the following... a) the people pumping on the opposite side of their vehicle's gas tank are often times standing in the middle land which is designated for drivers to pass through but customers often times have to wait for these people, meaning their physical bodies, to move out the middle lane, in order to pass them. b) most vehicles pumping on the opposite side usually pull the gas hose around the back of their vehicle and to compensate for this ACTION they actually tend to overshoot the pump so that the rear of their vehicle is past the pump rather then being parked more rear centered and parallel to the pump. c) It takes more time to walk and to stretch the gas hose out to a further distance then what is required These three dynamics actually create unnecessary chaos! So I don't get why Costco supports this behavior. Is it really too difficult to drive up to a pump that matches the side of your vehicles gas tank? Once I was parked at the front pump of three pumps, and positioned my vehicle perfectly when this big guy in a big SUV pulls up and looks at me and ask me if I come to Costco often. I'm said yes, why? He then proceeded to tell me that I should have pulled my vehicle further forward, basically leaving the pump behind my vehicle, to leave him more room to pull forward. I was thinking, excuse me? Like what? I was trying to assimilate the point of his statement, as I had left more than enough space for a vehicle of any size to pull in behind me...so I was totally mind blown by his words, but then I saw him dragging the hose from the pump around the rear of his vehicle to the opposite side, and then I figured it out..."oh, I see, you are one of those pumpers, I exclaimed outloud! I'm thinking, yeah I should not have parked perfectly in my space to pump on the correct side of my vehicle...wherein I take the pump handle and pull on the hose and use about three feet of it, to insert the spout, and seal the venturi, to take it from point A to point B, and somehow I should have had a crystal ball telling me the guy behind me is going to need extra space and practically move into my zone so he can drag and stretch the hose around the back of his SUV and then wrap it around the rear car panel, to access the gas tank, which is the furthest away from the pump that you can get as the hoses can only be stretch so far! 4) The best part about Costco gas is using a Costco Citibank Visa Credit Card because by using the credit card you BYPASS having to use your membership card, which reduces your time at the pump! When I had figured this out by sheer observation at the pumps, I asked a Costco employee to tell me all the benefits of their Credit Card, and I was given a long list and then I said well I'd like to apply for the Credit Card but not because of any of the benefits you mentioned and the employee was nice and she said oh really, and I said yes, I think your marketing department has missed the biggest selling point, I want the card so I can save time at the gas pump, so I don't have take my Costco Card out of my handbag and I don't have to scan the Costco Card and then wait and then scan a Credit Card and then wait, cuz with the Costco Credit card its on wave and your are done and dusted.

    Thanks for letting me know but maybe have the option for me to renew there??? How inconvenient!

    Long lines, selfish customers, no employee around to help. Avoid this location! I went there today to get gas and found out my membership expired which printed out a receipt telling me to go to the warehouse membership desk to renew. So it can read my membership info and it can take my payment for gas but it cannot renew my membership there? How inconvenient! I rarely go to Costco, maybe once a month or less, so I don't keep track of my membership. I thought it would just add the membership fee when it's time and I remember being able to renew at the gas station before, just not at this location? Since I waited long enough, I decided to ask people around if I can use their membership but all of them said no. One guy said no, it will charge to my account. Another lady said no, it needs to be the same name. Ok thanks I'll just go inside the warehouse and wait in another line to renew my membership and come back here to wait in line again? Thanks selfish people! And where was the Costco employee when this happened? Nowhere to be found. Awesome!

    Yes! I do recommend this gasoline business but as always beware. This location is cheaper than other Costco gas locations by 10 cents so hence the long long line. They are staffed well but the customers are usually on their phones and don't pull up or forward in their cars so lines tend to be very long. So if you don't mind a wait for that extra 10 center per gallon saving, then visit here!

    2 pumps on each side of the lane on both the left and right side of the gas station

    This Costco gasoline has got to be the holy grail of nightmares. Everybody knows the terrors that ensue when you foolishly decide to fill up your tank at a Costco gas station, fully aware of the Disneyland-esque lines you'll wait in just to get the sweet, low prices. But you don't know what hell is until you've driven up to this gas station. That is, if you can even manage to drive into this place. Pro tip: IT IS ALWAYS PACKED. I'm not even kidding. All hours of the day. Every. Single. Day. It actually makes me want to tear my hair out with just how painful this station is but with the steep gas prices in Irvine, it sort of justifies saving those extra $0.30 or $0.40 cents... If you plan on filling your gas up here like the poor masochistic soul that you are, make sure not to go to the last two on the right since there are only two pumps there whereas everything else has at least three. Other than that, there's truly nothing else I can say. I hate this place with a passion but the gas prices are too good to pass up. (10/100 - 2018)

    People of yelp, this place will be closed tomorrow (March 1st) so fill up today or day after!

    I want to rate this place four stars mainly because it has a relatively large lot and even though it's always trafficked up or the intersection gets jammed, there's the Lowe's/Costco parking lot that you could technically cut through if you really don't want to wait for the intersection to clear up. The two pumps at the very right side of the lot only allow for 2 cars per side of the pump, vs the other pumps that allow 3 cars per side. I've rarely seen pumps down but you'll always have to deal with Tetris of cars and dumb drivers. I had to minus one star because the associates at Costco really don't do too much to direct traffic (which would help a TON) but they are friendly and usually stay near the pumps. They will also wave down other cars if there is an open spot which is a nice gesture as well. Overall, I rather deal with the traffic here than the traffic at the Costco on technology drive.

    Easy and quick gas on a Saturday. Line wasn't too bad, and I always love the ones that show which ones are vacant and free

    Even at 9pm this place has a long line! It's crazy. I know gas is increasing in price but not sure the wait is worth it.

    I was cycling on the Peter's Canyon River Trail from Back Bay heading to Portola on a 85 degree day…read morelast weekend, mile 30 and I was out of liquid--totally parched. This place is right off the trail. Popped in here because my friend from France Pierre said the best cycling recovery drink is Perrier! And it's also my favorite drink! And guess what? They have it here! I got the Perrier Lime. (Wished they still had the lemon one.) But here you have to pay the price for that level of recovery all the way from France on a hot day on the trail in Irvine: $2.63 Worth every penny! I powered it back to my car 8 more miles. They have ample polls to lock up your bike outside and you better do so! There were some suspicious people hanging outside smoking who I later saw pushing shopping carts from Ralphs on the trail. One guy was pushing a bicycle--don't let that be yours. Irvine today is not the Irvine of 10 years ago! Lock up! Anyway on the receipt it says "7-Eleven". But it does not say 7-Eleven on the front. It just says Food Mart. But as long as they have Cold Perrier they can call themselves anything--I don't care. Employees here were friendly and wished me well. It's also a Shell gas station--a brand I do not use.

I made it clear after that I did not want to be touched, and that boundary should not need to be stated at all. I was simply trying to make my purchase and leave, not deal with behavior that crossed professional boundaries. Customer service should be respectful and focused on assisting shoppers, not creating discomfort. After reading other reviews mentioning rudeness, inappropriate behavior, and similar issues, it seems this may be a pattern. Management seriously needs to address staff conduct and training, because this type of behavior is unacceptable in any establishment.

The price of the gas here was more than 20 cents per gallon more than the Mobil on Paseo Westpark.

    I am very disappointed with the service at this gas station…read more Today, my wife and daughter stopped by to get gas and waited approximately 15 minutes for the pump to be activated. My wife went inside three separate times to ask for assistance, but nothing was done. It was only after she called me for help and the attendant noticed she was on the phone that the pump was finally activated. This is unacceptable customer service. People come to a gas station because they are busy and need quick, efficient service. No customer should have to wait that long or repeatedly ask for help just to purchase fuel. In addition, about two weeks ago, I stopped at this same gas station to buy gas and attempted to pay with cash. The attendant refused my bill, claiming he did not have enough change. In all my years of purchasing gas, I have never experienced this issue at any other station. I live only a few minutes away and would prefer to support this business, but these repeated experiences have left me feeling unwelcome and concerned that I am being treated differently from other customers. I hope management will look into these issues and take the necessary steps to improve customer service.
