The main downside is the gas price, which felt pretty high compared to other stations in the area. It is okay if you need gas quickly or you are nearby, but I would probably check prices somewhere else first next time. Overall, not a bad station, just expensive.

I went here specifically for two things: a touchless car wash and to use a bathroom…read more I am grateful to have found a touchless car wash because I have a finish on my car that my detailer highly recommends a touchless car wash. I was somewhat satisfied with the car wash. However, my car wasn't as clean as I would've liked it to have been. The good thing was that my car didn't get scratched by brushes. I believe that they need to make the car wash go longer. I also went to this particular station because I needed to use the restroom. I went into the store, and the friendly cashier gave me the key to the outside bathroom. I walked out to the bathroom, and when I grabbed the door knob, the door opened without using the key. I was feeling a little anxious about someone opening the door while I was using the toilet, but that didn't happen. The person before me probably didn't close the door completely when they left the toilet. The convenience store was huge with lots of items to buy. Outside, there is air for your tires, and you can vacuum your car for a handful of quarters. I was impressed that they had buckets with water and windshield squeegees--I haven't seen very many squeegees at gas stations lately.

Michael, the cashier, was very friendly and welcomes each guest as they come in. He makes sure they find what they're looking for. Seriously, great customer service and what a nice surprise in a convenience store! This Circle K is on the small scale, but they had decaf coffee, which is a big score for me! The bathrooms weren't in great shape, but were passable.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! I came to this gas station earlier this week and the 87 & 89 gas wasn't…read moreworking. There were no signs and no one informed me until I went inside. I cancelled the transaction and left. Two days later I saw a $100 charge on my card from this gas station. I went in today to talk to the owner about it. He was so RUDE!! He told me it's not his problem and he won't do anything about it. No apology. Nothing. The woman behind me had put $30 into the lotto machine while I was there and never got her lotto tickets. The owner said he wouldn't help her either. He started raising his voice and continuing to be rude. All of us were just floored that he would speak to customers this way. This is the second bad experience I have had at this gas station. Needless to say I won't be returning.

Usually I lead in with parking tips as in the bay area parking is by no means a sure thing, but this is a gas station. It's made for cars to come into. It's got a half dozen pumps with the usual overpriced gas in case you need it. They sell propane and wood which can be handy, there's a bench facing the pumps outside if you need to sit a spell, and there's a couple break room style tables inside by the awesome coffee bar. Which brings me to what makes this stand out from the other ten million unremarkable places to pump up at. They have an unusual focus on locally sourced items for coffee/sweets/snacks. Better then expected wine selection (for a gas station that is. Let's not get too carried away. It's not the best spot for wine shopping. But is good for a bottle on the fly.) They have many santa cruz roasting coffee's on deck ready to go at all times, and the most comprehensive ice cream cooler for marianne's novelties in the area.Also a strong snack wall. Plantain chips, Limon peanuts, and various spicy/savory chip mixtures. So yeah top off the tank if you need to, but it's great spot for grab and go coffee, sweets, and snacks as well.

It was so unwelcoming, so irritating, could not ask him for anything, because he wasn't paying attention. Clearly, he doesn't like his job, but you are known by the company you keep and a business is only as good as it's weakest link. They would be better off, hiring someone from Kentucky fried chicken. At least you would be greeted with a smile when you walked in. Instead of some apathetic person with an attitude, Blairing punk rock music so loud. Clearly, the owners are not paying attention. Next time I will go down one exit to 41 st Avenue where there are plenty of gas stations. The Union 76 by the highway 1 or the Shell station on the corner of Capitola and 41st. Are both very nice. Very welcoming when you walk in. Clearly, this young man behind the cash register here has never signed the front of a check only The back. If this was his company, he'd be a little more mature.

I even questioned if the Yelp photos were real because they don't match this store at all. I come in daily and have never seen those areas. That said, today was different. A middle aged man with long hair helped me and his customer service was excellent. He greeted me the moment I walked in, made friendly conversation about products and scratchers, and was genuinely pleasant. It stood out because it is so rare here. I didn't catch his name but his attitude completely changed my experience. Five stars for him alone.

I stood there for 10 min. No one made eye contact or acknowledge me. Finally a girl came and asked to take my order I asked for a medium soda and to talk to manager...she just walked away without taking my order. She talked to the first guy that had walked away. He spoke to her in Spanish and refused to ask what I needed. I finally walked to where they were standing (there was a line of about 3-4 people behind me) and said I wanted to know if someone turned in keys last night. He spoke to me in Spanish only and walked around the kitchen came back and said no. He never checked in the office to see if my keys had been. Turned in. I don't want to think it but his actions showed he did not want to help me because Im white. Racism of every kind these days. Hope he never loses his car keys.

I was kind of impressed, she slowed to a stop, stared at him, let him finish, threw it in reversed and took her business elsewhere. Bad ass. While he decided to start yelling again. If this is an employee, they definitely lost a customer in her. And anyone she tells about them. And me and people who don't support men who yell at women. Do better Great Gas. Yelling at women, turns out, is still not great.
