Came in for a tire repair, unfortunately for me it was not reparable. Team was super friendly, explained the issue, put on a new tire and advised on condition of remaining tires. Price was super reasonable and as a young and mostly uninformed girl I felt comfortable and that they were being honest! Thanks Mid City! read more

I was helping a friend with their yearly car inspection and we had a completely different experience between two shops. We first went to Midas, where they claimed the rear brake pads and rotors both needed to be replaced. I didn't completely trust their diagnosis, so we went to Mid City Tire and Auto for a second opinion. The team at Mid City was honest and told us that while we did need new rear brake pads, there was absolutely no need to replace the rotors. We had them replace the rear brakes and got our safety inspection tag. On top of that, they actually found that one of the rear tires was completely screwed up from a previous car accident and desperately needed to be replaced--something Midas completely missed. Highly recommend Mid City for their honesty and thorough work! read more

Ignored us a week prior with a tire pressure light on, it came back on and felt largely ignored when we said it should be looked at and needed more than air (we were right, it needed a patch) Left the car in the service bay after and said drive it out yourself, which was a first and kind of odd. Don't think we'll be bringing our cars back there again. read more

Top notch service kind people, with always a so thx you for your hospitality I will definitely come back

Great experience! I had a flat tire that couldn't be patched and called to make an appt. Was told just to stop by, so I did! They didn't have my tire size in stock but said they would get it before the end of the day. True to their word, I returned with my car and the new tire was put on in less 10 min by the end of the day. Honest pricing. Highly recommend! read more

Great! Needed assistance with filling my tires with air and the team was kind enough to assist, make sure tire pressure was correct - Kindness read more

Its always nice when you have a pleasant personable experience at any store, and it really makes me happy to live in south philly because places like this exist. If you ever call you get a real live person on the phone who answers questions and is quite pleasant. You usually will end up talking to the same person when you actually go in so they remember you from your phone conversation, when's the last time that happened? They seem honest, service is quick, and like I said, it was just a pleasant experience. Took about 30min to get one tire patched for a very reasonable price a year ago, and then got 4 new tires this year and it took only 45min. They didn't have the tires in stock but they got them in a day and gave me a call when it was time to come in. Only down side is that if you happen to go when its busy, you can't get into the parking lot because its small. I don't think they do appointments so sometimes its tricky getting in, but I've generally had no issues. Couldn't recommend them enough! read more

I brought my car in for an oil change at Mid City today. I found the appointment easy to schedule. I called a few days before and they were able to squeeze me in. The staff is very friendly. Admittedly, I don't know much about cars but they were patient with me and even educated me on the the difference between a synthetic and regular oil change. They taught me that you should stay consistent and not switch between the two which is helpful knowledge for the future! I dropped off my car between 8/9 in the morning and it was ready by 11:30 AM. Parking in the lot was super easy, as was pick-up. Cost was middle of the road, $88 for an oil change. Pleasant experience- I will definitely be back next time I need an oil change or any work on my car. read more

The team at mid city is great. I've taken our car there for the last 10 years. They're honest and don't try to upsell you on things. I had an issue when my catalytic converter was stolen on the street. Ernie and his team worked with me to install the replacement and cover it through insurance. There was an issue with the part a year later and insurance wasn't going to cover their warranty. Ernie was proactive and made sure things were taken care of and he covered the costs that insurance wasn't. read more

I brought my car in for an oil change and tire work when I first moved to the area because it was close. It was the most expensive oil change I have ever had to pay for by several magnitudes but I was desperate and Aaron was a nice enough guy so I let it slide. I later needed hub bearing work and again was quoted a price over twice the going rate: a quote over $1700 on a job that is $800 average is disgusting. When I asked them for a break down, Aaron blamed it on how much he has to pay his employees and the type of car I drive. As if that wasn't disrespectful enough, Aaron's father had waltzed into the office to spew political beliefs. I went and got the job done at Bao Auto Repair for a fair price and I cannot recommend him enough. This place on the other hand is predatory, rude, condescending, and a blight on Philadelphia. read more

I've been in several times the last couple of years for issues. Once, for user error that they didn't charge me for, and other times for legit help. Every time they've agreed to help me and then did so. They're fairly quick, this last time finding a hole and patching my tire within an hour, and charged me an affordable rate. I will continue to use mid city! read more

We have generally liked the service at Mid-City. However, when we took our car in today, we found that not a single employee of Mid-City was wearing a mask. During our visit, every fellow customer was wearing a mask, and it was extremely disrespectful to customers and the city that the employees were not wearing them. This included when we were inside, in an office with the doors closed, with an employee. He still did not wear a mask, and there were no sort of protective barriers or any COVID precautions in the office beyond just a bottle of hand sanitizer. We won't be back, and I hope this business will show some respect to its customers and community by taking safety precautions. read more

THANK GOD for Mid City. We packed our car to the brim for a trip to North Carolina, and as soon as we pulled away from our apartment our low-tire pressure indicator went off. Unfortunately, we found a nail lodged right in the middle of the tire. Both Pep Boys and AAA said we would have to wait a full day for service - then Mid City to the rescue!!! They had us in and out of the service bay in 20 minutes with exceptional service and extremely reasonable pricing. They saved our vacation! read more

Great place to check your car, they are very quick and nice. Every time my car has a problem This will be the first place I think about. Obviously when they're busy you have to wait, like everywhere else!.. totally recommend it! read more

See all

Called the owner - I believe his name is Ernie or Bert - I don't recall. Explained to him that I thought my wheels might have been damaged at his shop the day before when my wife brought the car in to repair a tire. He was polite and told me to bring the car by, and I did. He walk me through their process for repairing a tire and it seems reasonable. I provide him with a potential explanation based on my wife's account of how the tire was fixed and his response - "your wife is a liar, she's lying to you." Their work is fine, price was reasonable your call on who you do business with. read more

Tire repair. Very good experience. Done right the first time. Guy at the counter was ver nice.

I took in my Chevy suburban for a brake change and they gave my good service. The only thing was they took longer than expected but besides this the work was done and at a reasonable price. I high recommend them. Thanks foe everything jorge s read more

The absolute worst experience I have had with a mechanic!!! Charged me $1200 for adjustment of my alignment and for replacement of my headlight/ tail light. When I received my car, neither the adjustment nor were the lights repaired. I noted this to them, and they requested that I return the following day, at which time they charged an additional $300 despite having NOT completed the job the previous day and having told me they had. A complete lack of regard for another human, much less for a place that should understand customer service. Cannot rate them low enough. Steer clear! read more

I got a flat tire that they were able to patch in 30 mins (maybe even less). They're kind, helpful, and quick. Definitely coming back here again! read more

This place is solid! Good work in a timely manner with customer service can't be beat.

ONCE AGAIN MidCity has gone above and beyond for me! My car had been making this awful creaking noise for years. I'd been to other mechanics and they told me it was some metal rubbing on metal, that it was harmless and that I'd just have to deal with it if I didn't want to pay a lot of money. Fast forward to yesterday. The metal creaking sound had gotten worse, and on top of that, I'd been told at oil changes at other mechanics that I needed four new tires. Plus, my brakes had begun to squeal upon braking. My boyfriend had enough and, with the winter coming, decided to bite the bullet and take the car in for what we'd assumed would be a new set of tires and brake shoes. MidCity's mechanic told him I only needed two tires, I did NOT need new brake shoes, and that they'd been dealing with a handbrake issue in my particular year and model of car which was causing that awful creaking and squealing sound. A few hours later, my car was done, silent and running like new. And we'd spent HALF of what we were expecting to shell out. SERIOUSLY? A mechanic that doesn't capitalize on the ignorance of the customer?! Yes, they exist!!! I'm never going ANYWHERE else again! read more

Continually impressed with this place. Has been my neighborhood go to for years and they're always super friendly, professional, and honest. Years in this city and many cars later have taught me there's a lot of shops in town that love scamming or worse. Mid City has excellent customer service, communication, and it is a bonus that they remember you. read more

Had a nail in my tire and Mid City had me in and out in 15 mins tops. Good, friendly and honest service. Nice clean waiting room. Reasonable prices. I would definitely recommend this place and would go back if needed. read more

My 2005 Sprinter has 15" Rims, and requires heavy load commercial tires. These guys sourced the appropriate tires for me instead of sending me off with lighter duty tires. Happy knowing I got it done right. read more

We have been using mid city for a couple years now and they have become our go-to mechanic. They are incredibly accommodating and not looking to take advantage of you, rather they give an honest assessment and don't push. I'd like to add that as a female, I feel comfortable coming here without my husband which is a rare find these days. We recommend them to all our friends and family and can't say enough good things. read more

As a first time car owner, I want to make sure I take care of my investment. When I found myself with a flat tire I searched yelp for where to go. The reviews for this place caught my eye and after my experience I have to say I know where to go should I need anything else! They were extremely professional, quick and friendly. We showed up without an appointment and they immediately drove in my car, jacked it up, took off the donut spare, pulled out my flat tire to inspect it, patched my tire (rather than plug), and got me on my way probably within 15 minutes! I really appreciate that they patched my tire so that it is as good as new and for under $30!!! While we waited I was even shown how to change my own tire should I ever be stranded without my triple A. read more

Mid City Tire is AWESOME. I cannot thank them enough for helping me out!!! I called Mr. Tire, and Pep Boys, as these are the two biggest tire competitors that I know of; hoping they would have my tire in stock, sadly they did not. I inquired with Ernie at Mid City Tire, (thanks to Maps on GPS) about a tire that I needed. I discussed with Ernie how I already called two places with no luck and that it was urgent to have the tire replaced ASAP, as I had a schedule to maintain and I was from out of state. He called around and found the tire that I needed, it was an exact match and the only one left. When I got to the shop, I was welcomed by the guys, who were very friendly. Mid City Tire made sure I was in and out within 15 minutes so I could keep to my schedule, while maintaining their full bay. I would highly recommend them, and would use them without a doubt if I lived closer. Thanks so much guys!!! read more

I contacted Mid City, as I need to get the PA State Inspection done on my new car, bought in NJ...and I needed to get it done quickly.. Richie and the guys at Mid City couldn't have been nicer and more professional. I wouldn't hesitate to go back there in the future. read more

My dad loves it here. Service is cheap, people are friendly. Helps when you know the owners too read more

Another great experience at Mid-City Tire. Tire problem. They looked at it right away and diagnosed the issue (or non-issue I should say). Provided solution and further recommendations. Felt respected and comfortable there, especially as a senior female. Definitely recommend. read more

Excellent service! I stopped in to MidCity early this morning. because I had low pressure in my tire. They found the nail right away, patched my tire from the inside, and guaranteed it for the life of the tire. The owner was professional- work was fast and his staff so courteous and friendly. but the best part of the experience was the ambassadors that greeted me at the door -and stayed beside me until I left the two most adorable playful dogs, I have ever seen, Luna and Mona. read more

I'm very upset that when I brought my car for a state inspection, I found that multiple staff members were not wearing masks. Both outdoors and indoors at this location. I was even more perturbed to see that they were driving my car (to move to different spots, etc) without a mask on. It's frustrating to know that the employees do not take this pandemic seriously and that I will have to sanitize the inside of my car for my own safety. read more

Had a nail in tire. Wasn't sure whether to pull out myself. Called these guys, they said sure come on over. Drove over and they were able to take a look and inspect. Thankfully they confirmed nail didn't go through and they pulled it out. Charged a small fee for the time, which I gladly paid. All told 20 minutes. Will def come back next time. read more

Great service and very fast! Walked out to what looked like a flat this morning and drove right here based on reviews. They took my car, repaired the hole and I was in my way in 30 minutes. They also checked the other three tires. Thank you midtown! read more

Knocked on the door after hours and they still opened the door for us. They called their boss to find a pin to pump up our basketball. Nicest set of mechanics I've ever met! read more

Do NOT let these people touch your car. The mechanic who changed my driver side tire stripped two of the lug nuts entirely. He did not tell me, but put them back on for show so I would not notice. I did not realize until I took the wheel off for an oil change that they were completely loose and stripped. So I have been driving around for months with only two secure lug nuts. I truly don't know how some mechanics sleep at night. read more

Earnie goes above and beyond to satisfy his customers. Great prices and great mechanics is why this place is number #1 in Philly. You can drop off your car before hours if needed they do a great job read more

Amazing and so helpful! AAA told us the flat couldn't be repaired and we would need a new tire. Mid - City told us they could fix it and had us in and out in 15 minutes to the tune of 30 dollars. Immediately after, we drove back to Pittsburgh on the tire and everything was fine! We even had a nice chat with one of the shop workers who gave us the local intel on where to get a good cheesesteak. And a free calendar (only good for another month but who cares! -- I love free shit). Highly recommend. read more

Totally took advantage of my girlfriend who needed 2 tires. When I questioned the $500 bill for 2 tires on a sedan, was yelled at that it wasn't my car and SHE agreed to it. read more

Seriously this is the best place to go for all of your tire needs!! So friendly, they explain everything that is going on with your car!
