    The Outpost, Shaniko Gas Station

    (8 reviews)

    This place used to be open as a gas station many (MANY) years ago. For anyone on a motorcycle,…read morethis was a valued business since the gas stations in Moro, Grass Valley and so on all closed over the years. Nearest gasoline now is Biggs Jct, Madras and Maupin (regular gas only). So it was a welcome sight when I came by for my bi-annual photo visit to Shaniko and saw that new owners had opened it back up. There has been a vintage Texaco station in Shaniko forever but I don't know that it was ever operational. If it was, it was way before my time. A fellow from Vancouver (USA) owns it as well as the Studebaker shop and garage next door. Nice folks. I was there for the open house a few years ago and they had food and snacks for free. Since then all I've seen is a single, usually young employee there. Regular gasoline and diesel only. There are a small number of year-round residents here but many are snowbirds. A few of the vendors live in nearby larger cities. Due to the gas prices hard to say if this biz makes sufficient profit to stay in business but I hope they do. The hotel is being refurbished with the plan of opening December, 2022 so that could help sales some. Shaniko used to be a busy tourist stop 30-odd years ago but interest died off after the hotel closed due to a dispute about water. Of course there are those die-hards like us who come by every Spring and Fall to visit with a few of the locals we have come to very much like.

    Not open. Closed for remodel while Apple Maps says open. Seriously praying we make it to the gas…read morestation in Richmond as we are almost out of gas.

    Maybe it's the boredom of running a business in Shaniko, Oregon? Maybe tired of the crap that some…read moretourists can deliver? (Oh, I'm sure it's a LOT!) Whatever it is - this is NOT a "friendly place". Think of the Seinfeld "Soup Nazi" sort of experience. There's a gruff old dude who runs the place, and he is NOT friendly. Doesn't say anything at all - even if you say "Hi" - he will just keep staring into space, listening to his talk radio in the background. The place is filled with cigarette smoke - not sure why other than the proprietor smokes. BUT .... if you can deal with all of that? It's a very decent little shop to stop and get stuff you need - snacks, water, POPCORN (from his popping machine), tacky souvenirs, beer, box wine, whatever..... 5 stars for "glad this place is here" and to help offset the otherwise crappy reviews. Considering you're in the MIDDLE OF NOWHERE, and you can get all this stuff in one quick stop off of Highway 97, what's not to like? Just be aware of what it's going to be like, don't expect more, and get on your way :-) 5 Yelp Stars "for what it is"

    Just happened to hit town when this place was having their grand opening. Self service, unbranded…read moregasoline is all they sell at the moment but it looks like they are building a patio out back so there could be some sort of food service there come next Spring. Odd time of year to re-open a business.... Shaniko is mostly a whistle stop Tourist "Ghost Town"..... popular from Spring to Fall but pretty dead except for a few full year locals during Winter. The owner seemed hospitable enough and was giving kids rides on the fire department "golf cart".... I was happy to see this place open again and always hope that the small businesses in this fun little town thrive. The nearest gas AFAIK is in Maupin if you are heading over the Bakeoven Road. Redmond if traveling south. There are some card lock stations on 97 north. The Hatts in Wasco may still be open. If not, the next gas would be in Biggs, all quite some distance from Shaniko. For the uninitiated, this gas station has been closed for at least ten years... probably closer to 15 years. Maybe even twenty. Suffice it to say that it's been closed for a way long time. So.... the negative, one star yelp reviews posted before October, 2019 and after ~ 2000 are totally bogus. The place was closed so how could anyone there be "rude" or "unhelpful"?

    Stopped there on our way back from Bend to top off so I wouldn't have to deal with it Monday…read moremorning. The attendant was beyond rude. May be the last time I ever stop there. Nothing like heading home relaxed to get a large dose of attitude from someone who simply wasn't paying attention. She thought I was pulling (backing) in from the wrong side. Didn't realize I was simply moving the car closer after pulling in too far off the pump to let the wife out. She went out of her way to tell me to go ahead and get my fuel someplace else and that the next station was 16 miles away, as if I didn't know where I was. She also made a point of pulling her jacket open so I could read her name tag as she announced at high volume that her name is SAM. Ok Sam, good on you for running me off. I'll be sure to tell everyone I know what fine customer service skills you have. The most ridiculous part - there was no one at the pump behind me so even if I had backed in, to simply ask me to not do that again would have led to her realizing that I hadn't done it in the first place. When you come at someone with all that attitude there probably won't be much conversation Sammy ... Their prices are great, but I'll spend $4.00 more next time and skip the attitude.

    Stopped today and wanted to top off tank on way back to town from our house up on the mountain…read more Asked attendant for $20 regular and thought it was all fine. Checked my receipt and he gave me $28.88 in gas and he also failed to turn gas cap until it clicked, so as an added bonus I also left with a dash light on. Seemed to be more concerned with talking to a couple friends than actually paying attention. I've been here many times but today is most likely the last

    Went to get worms to fish this afternoon and stopped here. there was only 2 containers so I didn't…read moreeven take the time to check through the worms with such little options to choose and ended up with there when I drove to my fishing spot

    Well this summer when I was there there was a short long haired man working at night that started…read morescreaming and yelling at me because I bugged him too much I guess he has no customer service skills at all then I was there maybe October 6th in the evening has to use the bathroom and he said he went unlock it it took him quite a bit of time to unlock it, and then I got in there sat on the toilet and all the sudden all this cold air started flying through the vents and I got up to go out and the door would not open I was locked inside I was pounding and pounding and screaming and screaming I was petrified like no other I thought this man was a psycho it was the same man he is rude crazy he was rude and crazy to me when I went there again and I don't even know why he's working there but because of him I will never ever go there and I will tell everybody I know not to go there he made me feel like I was going to be chopped up or something because I couldn't get out of there but since I was screaming so loud and beating on the door my granddaughter heard me it all the sudden got unlocked and I think I'm going to report it to the police to be honest with you because it's really scary to pull something like that on somebody and he should be reprimanded if not fired for being such a jerk to everybody
