I was in need of a drink this evening. I had some time to kill before picking up a food order. I…read moredid a search and found this Circle K. It's roughly a five-minute drive north of Hillcrest Mall. This store is a part of an Esso station. It has a touchless car wash, a vacuum, and a Tim Hortons with a drive-thru. Parking is interesting. There is one spot to the left of the store for a driver with an accessibility permit. On the right are two garage doors. Two cars were parked in front of each door. There are parking spots across from the gas station by the car wash. I backed into a spot and walked over. The Timmy's is a part of the store, next to the Circle K cashout area. Timmy's was pretty busy with customers. I had no problem finding beverages. I got two bottles of Diet Pepsi and a berry Gatorade Zero. I waited in line. There was a woman leaving Timmy's who was pleasant. She was carrying a lot of goodies. I asked if she needed help getting out of the store. She was fine and thanked me for offering to help. On the contrary, I opened the door for a young Chinese female going into the store who did not say thank you. I said, "You're welcome." Our eyes met. I figured out that her brother was the kid twirling around in the Timmy's line. It runs in the family. Ugh. Our eyes met again when they both left the store after me. I let her know that she had poor manners. I also stared her down when she was in the backseat of her mom's car leaving the gas station. Fun in Richmond Hill! Quite the contrast. I'm not your personal door person. I was carrying drinks and still managed to open the door for you. I was being nice. I didn't have to be kind to you. The LEAST you could do is say thanks. Instead, you acted like a privileged teen. I digress. I do feel better venting. Back to my review... The man at the checkout was super nice. He said hi. He asked me how I was doing. I was great then. I got my drinks scanned. I also scanned my PC Optimum barcode and paid with a credit card. Done! I thanked him. He wished me a great evening. I reciprocated. My berry Gatorade zero hit the spot. It was my first time trying it. I liked it. I'd return to this store when I'm in the area again. Customer service was great and I got the drinks that I needed. I hope that the no-manners kids aren't back when I am. (398)

I recently discovered that their prices are much higher than other gas stations a little further north on Yonge St. and nearby gas stations on Hwy 7. I thought the air miles promotion that saves you 4 cents per litre was amazing until I discovered their prices are 4 to 6 cents higher than their competitors. Shame on you Shell for raising your prices 4 cents and making us think we're saving 4 cents! Also, they only give you 1 air mile no matter how much you spend. When I asked about this, they said it's during the 4 cents off promo. I don't think they are following the Air Miles rules. There is now a Starbucks at this location.

What is cool about this Esso gas station is that gas prices are decent. I'm guessing that it's mainly due to competition. There's a Petro-Canada that I have frequented a number of times across the street. It felt like a gas war happening at Bayview and 16th avenues. There were plenty of available gas pumps when I was here. I had no problem entering my phone number associated with my PC Optimum card, followed by paying with a credit card. Pumping gas was smooth. This gas station was clean and cheerful for a gloomy, rainy afternoon. This gas station has a car wash. It was doing swift business while it was spitting rain. It was nice to finally drop by this Esso. I've got some decent gas station options at this intersection. (133)

Heads up to drivers, Bayview & 16th is now the top hotspot for nightly gasoline price drops but…read morethis Esso and the Petro Canada across the street have gone a few cents bellow the others. I got $1.044/L when it was $1.104 at my other go-to stations and $1.159 everywhere in the 416. Since Thursday's 4c across the board price drop, they have maintained a -10c difference. Not sure how long this will last but if your business, leisure or Yelpwork will be taking you past the Bayview & 16th area I recommend trying to time your fill up to take advantage of the price difference and encourage the franchise operator to continue competing on price. (will post an update if I notice them fall back in line with the going rates.) Note that there is no proper access from the Bayview northbound lanes and access from westbound 16th requires a left very close to the intersection or a U turn to approach from the east, so those who are uncomfortable with abrupt & assertive turns may want to plan going past it and coming back around to approach form the east or the north.

Not as good as a couple of years ago. You can still find gasoline discounted here sometimes - not…read moreas often as 2019-2021 - although more dependable than the one down on 16th or the Yonge-May location in recent times. Another factor is that too many of the squeegees are damaged and they are leaving dirty fluid in there too long. Also the last couple of times the squeegee was frozen stuck so they are still using a dilution of mostly water which is not appropriate to the season. Also if you pay at the counter as I do, don't ever go on a 649 draw night. Lately the neighbourhood seems to have attracted many people who don't mind spending half of their Saturday night at the gas station creating major crowding and delays (and I thought I had no life...). So just another gas station now. The more reliable discount price action seems to be the Petro Canadas at High Tech and Red Maple as well as the pumps on either end of Thornhill Woods to the west.

I had an Esso car wash code at this location with an expiry date of September 18, 2018…read more I went to this Esso tonight and they said it expired at 12AM. I told him to show me where on the receipt it said 12AM and he could not point me to anywhere on the receipt. He just said it was obvious that the epxpiry would be at 12AM, since the expiry date said today and that there was "nothing he could do about it". I drove 5km to redeem my wash and had to drive another 5km home in a dirty car. Thanks for lying about it and misleading the public.

The pump that I used was clean. I had no problem sliding in my Petro Points rewards card, my 407 ETR discount car, and my credit card at the kiosk. Pumping hands-free was delightful. I threw out an empty beverage cup. This station is nicely maintained. It has a convenience store. i didn't check it out. I had nothing to get. Maybe I'll peruse it next time.

Even though the line for the car wash was at least several cars deep, the wait wasn't too long.

Touchless car washes don't provide your car with a complete cleaning like hand washing would, but it's good enough. I do wish that the drying portion of the carwash was a bit longer, though.

Even the one down by Leslie and Elgin Mills sometimes seems lower too. The advantages of going to this gas station is that it's right off the 404. If you get off it, you can go here and it's not typically busy. The downside is that if you're on south of Woodbine going north to the station, you can't turn in easily. You'll have to do a u-turn after Elgin Mills or do an illegal fast & furious drive on the oncoming lane. They also have a car wash. I've been here once which is decent for a touch car wash, I have no complaints. They have a Tim Hortons drive-thru and it's inside the Circle K store. The cashier in the morning is really nice.

Night time price drops are becoming increasingly common in areas of Thornhill & Richmond Hill between Yonge & Leslie. Other recent hotspots include the corners Bayview/16th, Bayview/Major Mac, Shell on 16th/Leslie the areas of Yonge/Steeles & Yonge/Weldrick (most dependable). This particular station has a large capacity so you're almost never likely to wait for a pump, it has a good deal of driveway space around the pumps, and people going to the store have places to park with sufficient space away from entering/exiting traffic (unlike the poorly designed sibling on the Bayview/Hitech side). The vast majority of operators in the GTA hold the line of the same price so I think it's worthwhile for the consumer to keep a list of locations who offer small discounts from their own margins and reward them with increased sale volume whenever it practical to do so. It may be only $7-$9 a month but it's money I'd rather spend on some coffees or waffles.

On Saturday, I was running errands and noticed that the low fuel warning was lit on my dashboard. I was driving along highway 7 and recalled this station. I pulled in. I have visited this gas station a number of times over the years, but well before my time on Yelp. This place is just in front of a bunch of box stores, such as Winners and Staples. The downside is going eastbound along highway 7 and making a left turn to get to this Petro-Canada. There is a ton of traffic approaching in the opposite direction that it is a wait before you can carefully turn to pull into the station. I like that the bays are wide and that there are many. I had no problem finding an available pump. I filled up and paid at the pump. It was uneventful, but smooth. This station is clean. I was happy that my car's gas tank was full again. (89)
