The good: Its like the cheapest Arco station around the workers inside are really cool The Bad: -The overabundant amount of tweekers and shit begging for "spare change" Its like, trick, you clearly see I drive a gas guzzler, all my "spare" change is going in my gas tank, not into your hot little hands so you can get your next "hit" -My card has been encrypted here on MORE than one occasion. But not since they have put in the NEWER systems -Getting out can be a bit tricky if you have no plans on going East on Alta Arden, or if you are trying to get to Exposition Blvd, it can be a bit tricky. -If you come here anytime AFTER the State Fair, you will deal with an excessive FLY problem. I am not sure if its because of the animals that are gone and all that animal feces left behind at Cal Expo, and we all know flies LOVE shit! So they lay eggs and I tell you ALL businesses around the area had a fly issue. Its like all the flies in the world went on vacation, and they came to Sacramento, Arden/Cal Expo area. So bad you didn't even want to hold a conversation, afraid a fly would go into your damn mouth! read more

Got coffee from here only and it was good experience. Friendly service as well for a gas station

AMPM on Arden Way has zero customer service or they are running scams on customers. Rather than assisting a 70+ years old customer with a defective gas pump they insisted that she had told them to put $30 on pump #4 and someone had stolen her gas and therefore would have to pay again. It wasn't until two other customers protested and the older woman produced her receipt that stated pump #7 did the clerk come out and help her pump her gas. The clerk had already made up his mind that the customer was in the wrong because he didn't listen to her or this store is running a scam. If you work behind a counter then you work retail and should be kind to all customers regardless. This lady is someone Mom or grandmother and she deserves help just like your Mom. Oh BTW she had a handicap placard in her car window,so I truly hope she reports you guys! GET IT TOGETHER! read more

Good gas prices but defective, old, broken-down equipment. Another arco where you have to abandon your car to go inside and wait in line before read more

This place was horrible especially the big fat cashier guy with glasses. When I asked to speak to the manager he started "laughing and mocking me saying..can I speak to a manager". HORRIBLE. Than Raj another cashier came and was helpful. When I went back in to get my change..he continued to video tape me from his camera while working. I'm sure my lawyer will Find out who owns this store and will be happy to hear how this employee harassed me. read more

Make sure you guys check what actual price they are charging you for! They will say "oh it's taxes" meanwhile just over charging you.

I ran away without getting anything. 3 hood rats ran out. The dedicated employee ran after them. They beat him up 3 on 1 and ran away. I'll pay more for gas. I don't know if the three had a gun. I was too scared. I hope the worker is okay. He should have let they go. They are not worth getting beat up for. No job is worth that. There are plenty of jobs now read more

It's an older AM/PM gas station in the neighborhood. I would say it's fairly busy and clean considering how long it's been there. I find the gas prices at this station cheaper than most AM/PMs. The store itself is small but the lot is spacious so you have plenty of room to drive around or wait for the next available pump. FYI: Watch out for the craziness this place attracts. read more

Cheapest gas, Friendly people, & easy in and out. You will always be welcomed... And did I mention the cheapest gas in Sacramento! I know for a fact that most Arco Ampm's do not accept credits something to do with keeping the prices low for us... Makes sense... Instead of paying the credit card companies 5%! Cash and debit only at all Arco's, I don't mind spending my own money instead of spending borrowed currency. I don't mind paying the $0.35 debit fee if I'm already saving so much money in the long run. I know places that charge even more. I'm a customer for life! As for the homeless people well they are always going to be a problem in Sacramento, this place is not the only place that has homeless folks, it is definitely not Ghetto. From 2012 I have seen such an improvement with this place... I always see their employees trying to run the homeless off the property. Their customer service has gotten much better. I also see people who are not homeless and drive up to the station in their cars and walk pump to pump asking for money... Their same old excuses... Either they got their wallet stolen or lost and they have no money, or they just happened to run out of gas (at a gas station?! How convenient), or come up to you selling CDs. I would rather get my gas and goodies and leave right when I'm done its good to be courteous to the next customer waiting behind me. Two thumbs up!! P.S. My favorite place to go for my gas station needs. read more

This arco was horrible. I talked to a man on the phone about me coming to get a duplicate receipt. He said that if I come the next morning that I could get it and spoke very reassuringly that it would be a simple transaction to come and get it. I went the next morning and the two men who helped me were horrible. They did not try in any way to help me and told me that they can't do that. I was telling them my situation and why I needed it along with the fact that the manager on the phone the day prior told me to come that morning. They still did not care and would not help me. How hard is it to give me a duplicate receipt. Don't come to this location, horrible customer service. read more

Easy peasy, cheap and fast, except for the line-up of cars wanting to take advantage of their low prices. $3.41 beats everybuddy else around here! read more

I've lived in the Sacramento area for most of my life and this Arco location has always been one of the cheapest places to go when it comes to filling up that gas tank. The reason why I didn't give five stars is because of the constant pan handlers that hangout at this location. So u may want to lock your door or hold your purses tight ladies, cause a lot of hustlers that hang out here have some crazy stories about why they need money from u... just saying. read more

Convenient location..always crowded though. Usually clean and not too much riff raff. The store itself is really small but there are alot of pumps and its right across the way from Arden mall read more

Should be able to gas up and only two pumps working. One pump was completely damaged and Falling apart and also more than half the pumps had yellow not working signs and another had a trash bin blocking the pump. This store needs to be shut down or fixed. I had to drive out of my way to go elsewhere. Hopefully a manager or corporate reads these. It's frustrating to move to four pumps and get out in windy rain and to find out none of them work. read more

If I could give this place no stars I would my mother just left here drenched with a face full of chemicals because the man behind the counter decided to spray her in the face with god knows what! When calling the cops that didn't help due to my mom spilled coffee on his floor, what the man didn't show the cops from the tape was how the man called her a bitch and a dog multiple times before my mom was hostile, it also didn't show my mom going to her car to pump gas only to have to come back because the man was playing games and didn't put her money on the pump. At the end of the day coffee will not cause you to go blind hell it won't even stain your floors! Pray the chemicals he used won't cause her to go blind or Worst! read more

It's a gas station situated at the point of a strange intersection. They have gas and they have munchies inside the store. Sure it is dirty as hell and you can see a lot of people from the people of Walmart site here, but hey you're here for gas not to pick up a date! read more

Solid service here! It's usually a toss up for gas here or at Costco Cal Expo. Their prices usually run neck and neck. I tend to go here more often simply because the lines goes faster and the guy behind the counter will help me pump my gas if I need it. The only thing I don't care for is now the charge .45 per ATM transaction and they try to get you to sign up for an Arco card to avoid the charge, but otherwise, a great place to go. As an added plus, I tend to do better on Lotto here...have won more money on scratchers then anywhere else! Whoo Hoo!! read more

Any place that charges u to pay ( credit card) is riducalis. Can people not see the biggier picture. Well here it is I will never use this gas station again no more of me buying snake or food while I get gas. I'm sure they lose a lot of business because of this. read more

Definitely the CHEAPEST Arco ampm in the Arden/Arcade even Carmichael area. At least by ¢10, which in my opinion makes a big difference. No one likes paying for gas lol so this ampm is the one to be at if you're ever by the mall. However, it does have a lot of homeless people around which makes it not so great. Probably not as safe as well. Well lit up though, always people around, cheapest prices and great location. Being that it's by the mall, in n out, movie theatres and a handful of surrounding restaurants. read more

Cheapest gas out of everywhere. My go to place in sacramento. Pretty safe area, and cashiers are pretty nice as well

Good prices on gas but be prepared to fend off bums

1 star only bc the location seems like a one way entrance and a four way exit. If you miss the closest entrance, you have to go around the corner to get in. Traffic commute during the week are the worse. Some people would take their time getting gas as if no one is waiting for their turn. To avoid heavy traffic, get there before everyone is off work. read more

This place is much more pleasant now that there are new owners, I thought I would never go the this place again. the store is cleaner, and the people are friendly. read more

Good gas prices, often times it's busy. ALWAYS USE CASH HERE. I normally use cash on gas anywhere. I used my ATM card here and only here. Two days later I had charges to my card at dollar stores in the Bay Area, yet I still had the card. Kinda shady. Overall I would go back, just pay cash :) read more

Worst gas station in the area. Pump shut off midway through pumping gas and when I spoke with the attendant they were rude and unhelpful. They told me that the pumps only supply 87 (no signs are posted indicating this) and it shut off on me because I was putting 89 in my vehicle, and this was after I had put nearly 7 gallons in my car of, what I thought was, mid grade... read more

The people who manage this Arco gas station are very nice and take good care of their customers. I really like their competitive and really good low prices. Thanks for all you do for your customers. read more

I sometimes forget and end up here. Only to remember that the card readers on the pumps NEVER work and I always have to go inside and pay debit- which they charge a 60 cent fee to use. So today I thought I'd try, card reader said "go inside." I asked the clerk if their outside card readers ever work and he said, "no, never." I won't be going back there so that they can force me to pay the debit fee by pretending the machines are temporarily down read more

Don't even deserve the one star , people should there should be reported and investigated. It's so ridiculous they create issues every time I go there , but I have no problems everywhere else I go. read more

Im going start off with I was unsattisfied with one of your stores. I was treated horrible. I was visiting family in Sacramento and I went to the AmPM near Arden Fair Mall to get gas. I proceeded inside and paid for gas a pack of cigs and a beer. I also got what I thought was a ten dollar bill from one of the employees around 8:20 PM on September 13th according to my bank statement. I didn't look at the ten to make sure it was real because I had never seen a counterfeit dollar before. Two days later I go to spend it and I look like a full trying to spend it. I received a fake ten dollar bill from your store. Yea it was only ten dollars, but its the principal behind it. I was very hurt when I tried to help my mom out with gas with hat ten today and found out it was fake. i tried three different stores and no one took it. Today I went to my bank and they confirmed it was a fake 10 dollar bill. They told me to talk to AmPm to straighten this out or too make a police report. I have not yet made a police report. Your store robbed me of ten dollars and I barley have money to get by as it is. I went there and the supposed manager refused to look over the video camera with me and called me a liar and told me that he couldn't do anything because there are no fake bills at his store but he is very wrong and im very disappointed. I will not be going to another ampm. The people there are too unprofessional and they steal from broke college students such as my self. How could employees be so harsh. All I ask for is if you can fix this matter for me. The stores address is 1949 Arden Way Sacramento, CA. They promote giving their costumers counterfeit money. This ruined my whole vacation. thanks for robbing a poor student who lives paycheck to pay check. Worst bunch of losers ever. I bet they thrive on stealing peoples money read more
