    it is the law to give free air if u need some for ur tire.. that asshole clerk was rude , 17 years I ve been pumping my gas here..
    Christophe L.

    it s illegal to charge for air for your tire in California if you ask for it, the clerk denied it to me I had no quarters and a low on air tire., and he was rude as hell.. he should get fired...17 years I ve been getting my gas there..

    Alex, went out of his way to help me when I got a flat tire thank you so much! Good prices on gas and nice selection of goodies inside.

    High clearance tent

    Wonderful gas station. After filling up here my car feels like flying, really. I believe this is one of not many stations where your gas is actually gas the way it should be. It does have Diesel for those who drive economy cars, and there's like 15' clearance of the main tent for those who drive tall trucks. To pay for gas, you can address a cashier, or you can use an automated ATM, which takes any cards (I believe). There's also a air pump with a gauge, so that you knew the pressure in your tires. Money collected go to charity. The only bad thing about that gauge is the way it smells - being situated in a dark corner of the station its surroundings often used as a restroom (Yuk!). The snack shop is assorted: danishes, chips, beef jerky, sodas, coffee, cold sandwiches, chocolates, gum and my favorite Bubu Lubu (jelly candy) which is found only here :) Friendly cashiers are always ready to help you and answer all your questions (except for those like "Why's the grass green?"). The station is always busy, but no problem - people come and leave, so no lines. You come, you fill up, you fly away happy.

    Arco Station on Western & Melrose

    Arco is my First choice Gas station. Cheap prices around the Melrose Hill/East Hollywood area. The prices are the same for both cash and debit card. However there's a 35 cent charge if you use debit! There are two Pay Islands that make it simple to pay so you don't have to go inside. Only time I go in is for a Rockstar or to get change. I see some saying it's not the safest place, but I've never had any issues with people harassing me. Guess it just depends. During the middle of the day during weekdays is the Best time to get gas cuz its less crowded. Arco is located on the corner of a super busy intersection of Western and Melrose, which sucks cuz its difficult to exit safely and rejoin the streets cuz of stupid drivers and Metro buses blocking the exit. So BE CAREFUL!!

    New debit card machines in ARCO?

    Great wonderful customer service always but the thing is that the gas station is always packed up in the parking lot.

    Only takes debit card. Cashier was short/blunt and rude cashier. Two pumps didn't work even with a debit card.

    This is my favorite local gas stations I have been coming for the past 2-3 years. Not only are…read moretheir prices reasonable for quality gas but the times I have gone inside the convenience store, all the male cashiers have been nothing but great. They are all super friendly and helpful in particular Guillermo. When I began coming in regularly, he remembered me and would always greet me kindly and politely. He is always friendly and kind to everyone he interacts with. Since I was coming every week, he let me know about the rewards program and the perks of being a member so without hesitation I signed up. I would normally come in the mornings to fill up but over time I started to come in the evening instead. Again, the different employees whom I have interacted at night have also been very friendly and helpful as well. Quality gas and friendly service, what's there to not like!

    Stood behind an older lady while the Torta at the register argued with her. Lady as register had…read morethe nastiest attitude and was refusing to move the gas from one pump to another for the lady they're going back and forth for like 5 minutes and by the end I'm like fck I can't even remember which pump I'm at and the lady at the register is the only one with a view. I'm like that's pump 6 right? oh god I might've well asked her to run a marathon- she fking refuses to answer me (I've never experienced a gas station attendant refuse to confirm the pump) and even if it ended up being the wrong one, that's still on the customer you stupid c u next Tuesday. Told her how fkd up she was being and she didn't like that and refused to give me gas. Oh well like there isn't another one right up the street lmao Enjoy spending your retirement years working in a fkin gas station lmao
