I have gone periodically here due to poor service. I never use my debit card and always need help bypassing to use credit. This time the guy asked for my card and ID, went to another computer, scanned my cards, then told me his computer wasn't working and pointed at the monitor which clearly needed to be turned on. He said I'd have to use my debit card. I will never set foot in this place again. No need as there are plenty of other places around. read more

What can you expect when this location already gets only 2 out of 5 stars ! The upside is there is more parking than the am pm nearby, but the downside is their employees - including their managers - have the world's worst customer service, so bad it's scary. It makes you wonder how companies like Disney and In N Out do it because their customer service is amazing. AM PM's is a horror show. Shop at your own risk here. My most recent experience played out like a Hollywood horror script: the situation started as hopeful, then the inciting incident hit - trying to claim a free reward in the app - and everything went to hell quickly. It resulted in a climax filled with hate, anger and venom spewed out to me from the manager. BUT - these events are not just based on a true story, they ARE a true story ! Synopsis: the Dodgers stole a base last night at Dodger Stadium, and AM PM gives a free hot dog and slim can 12 ounce Coke product as a promotion when the Dodgers steal a base at home. But at the counter, they wanted to charge me $.88 I asked politely if this was correct and showed the employee the reward in my app - which is really a regional ongoing promotion of AM PM's they even run TV and radio ads for. They said it was for taxes and crv but i know this isn't true because other locations honor the deal for free just like the ad says. Also, the manager was just trying to move me along and didn't add it up: sales tax and crv would have been closer to $.40 but an evil nemesis in a good story don't care about logic, they are here to scare and entertain ! I didn't want to make a big deal out of $.88 but before I could even consider it, the employee said, "you would have paid about $4 instead you're getting it for $.88 that's a deal." I hesitated, pointing out that this isn't how the deal works or how AM PM does business and then the manager chimed in saying "Look", he sneered coldly at me through his magnifying spectacles, "this is the deal: either you pay the $.88 or never come here again." Whaaaaat?!! Who does this?? Was this some kind of threat I wondered as I cast a furtive glance about the store. I asked his name, he wouldn't give it to me; he intimidatingly reiterated his terms (think the way some evil mafia movie don or scary Marvel antagonist would say it), and then his henchmen and women, the two female employees working, started yelling "bye!!" And "leave!" At me. All this for me - politely in the beginning I might ad - simply responding to AM PM marketing about using their app. In the shadow of the nearby Universal Studios' Hollywood Horror Nights (although this experience was in the spring), perhaps their unbelievably scary and demented "customer service" might fit in.... But in the reality of every day life, save your horrific experiences for Netflix and Amazon and avoid this hostile, horror show of a location....gulp! before it's too late !! read more

ampm - Don't come here unhappy employees and they don't let you use the bathrooms because they have to clean them - Convenience Stores Near Me - North Hollywood, California

Easy location right off the South 101 Freeway Lankershim off ramp! Recently remodeled the inside am/pm. Easy to navigate thru the snacks and beverages. Pumps are clean and I love the hand sanitizers next to them. Why doesn't every gas station have these!! Remember Arco charges about $.35 fee for debit card gas but the overall price per gallon us usually cheaper than the average gas station so it's hardly noticeable. Air machine works and has a psi gauge so that's helpful. Be sure to ask the am/pm cashier to turn it on so you don't pay. read more

The lady at the register cheated my dad out of $10. My dad handed her a $20 for his $5.45 payment. She handed him back $4.55. He told her that she shorted him $10. And she proceeded to fight with him. Look at your cameras! Your lady at the counter is ripping people off! read more

worst gas station ever, I live close and I am here all the time --- the dude working there graveyard is on some BS real talk I hope the owner or manager or someone sees this and fires the half ass excuse for an employee that for some reason is ALWAYS there. This is the 3rd time in the last 8 days he's put a sign on the door saying "system down store closed" (picture included) this is a complete lie the first night I accepted it and left the 2nd night I said no way now TONIGHT ???? ive been sitting at the McDonald's across the street for the last FORTY MINUTES and this dude turned away ELEVEN (11!) customers. Like honestly I've had enough with this obvious shameful nonsense -- like dawg if you don't wanna work stay home why are they paying you to lie ???? man such nonsense I'm never coming back to this craphole of a petrol station ever again.... read more

ampm - Outside - Convenience Stores Near Me - North Hollywood, California

Best Gas Station in LA! - though get your bathroom fixed :) The only reason you guys didn't get a 5 stars is because your bathroom was broken the last time i came there and that is not a good sign guys. Overall this is the best go-to for gas prices usually having one of the lowest in the valley area, and close to the 101N and 101S. Not to mention they do have a pretty awesome hotdog area for hotdog building and condiments. People here are friendly, story is a solid 8 on cleanliness, and while i speak of the hotdogs here they are really pretty amazing while stopping in for gas here. Right around the corner from an In and Out as well if you need that fast food action instead. read more

I really wanted to love this station but the guy in the night shift is an Ahole. I think I had to do w race but I'm not positive. When I approached the register he never looked at me or stopped his personal conversation w his co-worker. Once he'd rung up my purchases w/out making eye contact, I asked for something beyond the counter. He rang that up & kept taking. Never once did he give me a total. I said "nothing is showing on the screen." He said insert your chip. (Nevermind that I'm holding cash in my hand but he'd have to have looked at me to notice). I said " the screen is broken." After he told me to insert my chip again, I said - "you haven't even told me how much it costs. I'm paying in cash but you aren't even paying attention." The lady came & told me the price & the AHole walked away & went in the back. read more

Not allowed to use restroom don't ask if you black. They said no I can't use it. I had to go to Ralph's anywhere close was a no!

They don't take credit cards, but then charge you $.35 to use your debit card. So ghetto...you'd think this was the hood. Going right down the street to Chevron from now on read more

Don't take credit cards at pump. Don't have public bathrooms. I didn't bother to buy anything.

I don't entirely understand the problem of the location Manager here. But I just had a friend who was in car accident. We parked in the store parking lot to assess and to check on her and without even asking the situation, told us we would be towed. That's AFTER we've already purchased from them TWICE. Avoid this place. If they don't have the common sense to respect and understand a potentially dangerous situation they don't deserve the business. Get your gas and snacks elsewhere. read more

ampm - Convenience Stores Near Me - North Hollywood, California

Only the finest cheeseburgers, hot dogs and other gas station food. Joking aside, they have a good selection of sodas.

I've got no use for a gas station that doesn't accept credit cards. (Plus I think then charges 35 cents to use your debit card.) I've read the rationale... but I don't buy it. Or gas at Arco stations. read more

When ever the owner is there, he is very friendly and gives me something free every once in a while. You can tell management keeps their employees busy because the store is always spotless. And for the people that complain about the .35 cents, that makes no sense. It's every arco not just this location. Same for the credit cards. This is actually the only location where I can use credit for in store purchases. Yes, the purchase has to be over $16.35 but there is always so many deals so I'm always well over $16 every time. read more

ampm - Very modern store - Convenience Stores Near Me - North Hollywood, California

Everything is debit only--gas and the convenience store. Additionally, they charge you 35 cents to use debit (??). I'm not a california native but everything in here seemed overpriced (more than what i've noticed at other places around town) read more

Good service. Been here only couple of times. Gas is also cheap and good quality. My new go to get gas and snacks.

I have been a patron of Arco AMPM on Cahuenga in Studio City for over a decade. After prepaying my gas, I was unable to pump because a patron wa pulled too far for the pump to reach. I asked him politely to back up as he wa done and he starting yelling at me. I put the hose back and went inside to ask if they would reset. Employee Jesus supposedly reset but it didn't work. The patron again yelling at me for asking him to back up so I could pump began cursing and threw a full glass of onto my windshield. I went back in asking if they had something I could clean my windshield with and Jesus pointed to a container of napkins. I asked again if he would please reset the gas if paid for and he refused, walking into the back room. A lovely co-worker offered to do it and by this time I'd had it and will never return. I have left word in this Arco's voicemail, and will tweet this issue as well as filing a claim with the better business bureau. Our works today is volatile. One should have to face it at a regular vendor. Just terrible. read more

So this place charging people $4.29 for small 12 oz Red Bull,plus 35cent debit card fee,(Also no credit card)and when you get gas,they don't even have napkins or antibacterial hand sanitizers? ((Most ARCO gas station they have it,it's free and complimentary for customers))All pumps are old and not clean.I'm giving this place -900 stars. Stop overcharging people! read more

Does not accept credit cards. So let me get this straight, you'd rather me not purchase $20 in food and $80 in gas because you're so cheap you don't want to pay the processor. Boycott all AM/PM, this is 2019 and you're neglecting a huge market. Idiots. Also where do you get off charging $5 for a kombucha, they're literally half the price elsewhere. Ripoff. Whoever is running this place is marking all inventory up 50% and more compared to other retailers. read more

I am an Uber driver and am/pm's are supposed to be open so you could use the bathrooms or get coffee but every time I come here there bathroom is closed for maintenance and they never have coffee. The staff is mediocre at best. If it wasn't for the gas price I would never come here. If you want to use the bathroom or want coffee be forewarned that it's a 50/50 long shot. read more

The best gas station I have ever seen. Great service great customer service great food great atmosphere

I am currently sitting in the lot at Arco. I was on my way to work & decided to stop in and get a RockStar. Now my car won't start so I called a tow truck. Some guy comes out & says "ma'am this is 10 min parking only". I told him my car won't start & the next thing out of his mouth is "well it's 10 mins" I said "are you kidding me right now?" He says "is someone coming?" I said yes! A tow truck! And shut the door in his face. Seriously?! I come here often since moving to Studio City a few months ago. I'm dressed for work (executive style) & drive a decent car. Does he really think I just want to sit in my car all day here? How about starting with "is everything ok"? Fuck this place! I won't spend money here ever again! read more

Very very very rude lady at night....older Mexican lady. I get here pay for my gas(1117pm) and also for the bathroom key... She says it's not working.. Keep in ming the door is wide open. I tell her please I know a alot of Arcos in LA say that the bathroom is out of service at a certain time... But I just need it take off my contacts.. She says no! "I'm not a liar I'm just doing my. Job"... "If you have a problem talk to my manager" and she's yelling at me in front of all these ppl. I said I just may Do That....she says "I dare you! He has my back won't go too far" and just gloated. she's lucky she's one a female and two a older lady. But man she shouldn't be working in this type of business. One. Day someone won't be as respectful as I was. Management should really talk to her read more

Horrible service. Gas station doesn't allow restroom access even for paying customers.

I like going to Arco stations because of the consistently cheap prices but this one I've decided I probably won't go to anymore. I'm a Lyft driver and I work late nights. The past two times I've stopped here have been disappointing. The first time I remember thinking this was a terrible station, I was parked across the street taking a break and I saw the overnight maintenance guy who uses a leaf blower to clear the property intentionally blow plastic trash into the street. I thought it was incredibly irresponsible and it wouldn't have taken him much more effort to just pick up the few pieces of trash but he chose to blow them into the street. As for tonight, where do I begin? I came to the Arco on Cahuenga to fill up my tank, to use the restroom, and to clean my windows. As I walked up to the building, there was a homeless man standing right at the front door yelling obscenities at people at the as they walked in. I guess that's not really Arcos fault. It was just quite unsettling. I was however upset to see an out of order sign in front of the bathroom. Still needing to pee I went back outside and decided to wash my windows. Two out of the three window squeegees for broken and although the cleaning solution look like it had just been topped off, it smelled like sewage. And just in case anyone thinks otherwise, yes I tried all three window stations All three smells like sewage. Two strikes down and I thought whatever I'll just get gas and go to another station to take care of everything else. I go to put my card into the pump and the pump isn't working. it was the final straw and I literally just had to leave I was so upset. And then of course I pulled over to write a Yelp review. I thought about bringing up my concerns to the person working behind the counter but none of this is probably their fault and hopefully management will see this review and do something to fix these problems. read more

I pulled over to get gas but just wanted to finish eating before I got my hands dirty. Employee comes and tells me to leave parking space and as I'm explaining to him the only reason I stopped to park here was to get gas. Instead of listening he used his boss as his excuse to tell me he couldn't let me finish. If I wasn't getting gas I wouldn't have pulled over. I left and went to chevron paid more finished eating and got gas just because the customer service is better and no one was going to creep up to my car and tell me to leave. I'll never get gas here again. read more

Attendant is rude not only that I gave this place my business if I would've experienced the rudeness before I gave my business I would not of given my business I mean come on I'm in Uber driver and I'm not allowed to use the restroom especially as a customer give me a break that's bad business and to top it off he was rude about it read more

I always come here to pump before going to work. Fast & friendly staff, and store always looking clean!

This particular ampm I love it since there always plenty parking, because it's very restricted, some people complaint because of it but I don't mind because I use for what it is. Also it's always fully stocked with the best selection, always in stock, cashiers talk to you, unlike other places where only take your money and they barely says thank you. Always clean and if you have the luck to see the owner, she always does freebies! Love this ampm read more

The people that work here are super rude and obnoxious. They argue with the customers. They are overpriced and just plain nasty.

Management blows here. So my friend was in a car accident right out front. We had to come pick her up. While parked at this place, and after my friends had gone in several times to make purchases as we figure out insurance stuff, an employee came out to let me know I was going to be towed if I didn't move soon. Great use of humanity and tracking what's going on in your store. Give this place a pass if you can. read more
