Before heading to Pasadena yesterday, my car gas gauge was at 2 bars. I said I'll just get gas after my workout. Sure enough... my gas gauge was blinking upon leaving my workout location LOL. I had to quickly find a gas station. Well, the nearest gas station was at least 5 minutes from where I was at. It was between Chevron or Shell. Guess who won? You got it... Shell! Funny, as I was driving to Shell, I saw Chevron, but it was on the other side of the street that I was driving on so I said I'll just stick with Shell. Great corner location on Del Mar Blvd and Arroyo Parkway. Clean exterior. Prices were several cents cheaper than Chevron... yay! They also have a food mart, but I didn't go in. I prefer to pay at the pump unless I really need to go inside. If they run out of paper, I just make myself a note on gas cost and be on my way and not bother going inside to get receipt. Anyway, thanks Shell for being present when I needed you most! read more

Stopped by to get gas and had to take a piss so bad. The cashier rudely told me they don't have public restrooms. It's 2026 close your store if you can't put up a restroom for customers. read more

Honestly I stopped by to see if there were restrooms available (obviously I would've bought something if so) but the guy said no. Now I'm looking at the reviews and it says yes. That was a bad enough experience that I'll not fill gas up here again like I do in the mornings or evenings before or after work. TBH the prices are pretty high compared to even chevron down the street. (Yes it was that serious). EDIT: Shibli, thank you for your response; however, as a business/franchise owner you should ensure that ALL platforms reflect the correct information especially if this has been unavailable for 5+ years -- you've had plenty of time to correct this information. As for the Chevron comment, this is my observation and was took my business there as of this morning. Thank you. These small things make the difference on whether someone will use your service moving forward. read more

Better than I had expected. I am very glad I made a quick drive after a work meeting. Very, very good selection of craft beer of all kinds. Well put together and a lot of new examples to try. Glad to see they have stayed dedicated to helping us all source local beers. Thank you. read more

Hidden gem in Pasadena! Great craft beer selection. Never too busy. Decent prices. Friendly service. I loved all of the items I selected. Will be back very soon for more. Glad to have an additional craft beer location to add to the rotation. Just wishing there wasn't an Instagram now so it stayed a secret. read more

Of course I stopped by after reading about them in the news! Lots of fun perusing their craft beer selection. Packs and single cans are available in the refrigerated sections. If you shop at Ralphs for groceries you can use your phone number that's tied to your account to use fuel rewards at Shell when fueling up too. read more

Come for the gas, stay for the craft beer selection & diverse Asian snack section. They partner with another local brewery to brew their own beer that they only (currently) sell at the station. read more

Review is for Replicant Beer. Amazing Beer concept. Really wide selection. Really good beers. Lots of different ones to take home. Prices are very reasonable and they ship. read more

Great craft beer selection. I recommend coming here if you want to grab some bottle logic or local brewery choices. read more

Arroyo Shell - Great single beer selection. Also not featured in the photo, they have a beer cave w probably 6 packs and 12 packs? - Gas Stations Near Me - Pasadena, California

Came in for craft beer and I was not disappointed! They sell a ton of their beer by the single cans so you can get a wide variety of beers to try. If you are visiting and looking to try some local brews then this is your spot! Also had two employees ask if I needed any help with my selection. read more

When you need just need one item and you don't want to go into a huge supermarket. I was running five miles from Alhambra to Pasadena and I was thirsty on the 4th mile. I stopped here to quench my thirst and found that they carry cold Yerba Mate - that was refreshing. read more

Arroyo Shell - Refueling my body - Gas Stations Near Me - Pasadena, California

I heard about the craft beer at this place and it has been on my list. Finally we were in Pasadena on a Saturday night and stopped by. Lots of 15 min. parking on their lot. Everything is labeled with the pricing, which seemed pretty fair for all the great choices. Hubby and son picked up a few cans and I went for a can of bubbly. Will definitely come by again, especially for the Bottle Logic. read more

I was in Pasadena on business, and I stopped by here to get a bottle of water, and use the restroom. The restroom was very clean. The store itself was also clean, and well-stocked. I checked out and was out the door in a matter of minutes. I didn't fuel up here, as I fueled up before heading going to Pasadena that day. But the prices were comparable to fuel prices of the region. The worker here was a pretty good guy. Good customer service, five stars. read more

Wow, what a gift. I've been coming here for the first time within the past 6 months and I didn't even expect Shell to have some of the best beer and ice cream I've ever had. The craft hazy ipas are so good and the 626 pumpkin biscoff ice cream pint is next level. Shell is my favorite spot for reals. read more

The best craft beer place in LA. I'm sorry but no. Has the writer of the article in LA Mag never visited any craft beer place in LA? I highly doubt it. It's like 90% sours and a few coffee stouts in 2 fridges. Definitely not the level of Bottle Logic I was led to believe would be here. Not worth a trek. Whole Foods is comparable. Total Wine is significantly better. Blackbeard Crafts in West LA is exceptional. Don't bother with this for beer unless you're already close and looking for a sour, a coffee stout or yet another west coast IPA. read more

Their air pumps just let air OUT of the tires. My husband even asked them if the pumps worked before he put money in.

At first I found it hilarious going to a gas station solely for craft beer but I am pleasantly surprised to find such good selection. I'm a Bottle Logic fanatic and they have all their stuff. read more

Tell my wife i go here for "gas." In reality I get myself a few different beers from their wide and good selection.

A very nice neighborhood corner store! I appreciate the thoughtful curation of craft beers and ice cream pints -- a definite step above most gas station convenience shops! The employees also deserve a shoutout for being friendly and keeping the gas station super clean! Also, I love the rose bush perimeter -- great job by the new management! read more

A friend recommended I stop by to check out their craft beer selection. Was super excited to see them carry a new beer from a brewery I have been recently exposed to. Hoping they will continue to get larger shipments so that I won't have to fight the masses during online sales and it will save me from having to make the hour long drive down to Anaheim. Guys working here are super friendly and am glad this gas station is under new management. Convenience store is kept clean and I'll definitely be stopping by more frequently for more than just gas! read more

I live really close by, so I come here too often, the employees are usually nice and funny, the white chocolate covered pretzels on the wooden rack in the far left by the alcohol, those are really good lmfao it's always clean inside, not a weird sketchy gas station read more

I had a good visit here, everything was great. John told me about the fuel rewards program with Shell and signed me up and told me how it saves me money at Ralphs supermarkets. The store was very clean and everyone was very friendly. John was really helpful, professional and friendly. No complaints about this place. They really know how to keep everything in good order. read more

They have an amazing craft beer selection. Also great vibe for a gas station. Every time I bring my dog they give her a treat. The staff is very friendly and a joy to converse with while you're making your purchase. I'm not sure who reviews gas stations but this place is worth a review read more

Arroyo Shell - Gas Stations Near Me - Pasadena, California

Went to fill my tank, left with a craft beer four pack. While six packs are also an option, I spoiled myself with their selection of Avery beers. I will be coming back to craft some more six packs, haven't seen that Avery anywhere else around here. read more

The customer service is amazing. My rental car has error with the fuel meter and it shows there is still gas but my car stopped a block from them 2 cars from the rail track! . I m super grateful for the owner Shibli who lend me his portable gas bottle to refill the tank to drive the car over and his amazing helpful energies. I will come back again and again! read more

It has no restroom and fuel price is about 30-40 cents more than other shell. The gas station looks clean but maybe because not much of foot traffic. If you need to buy a drink or snack, maybe it's ok. But if you need to use restroom or get gas, I would recommend to go some other places read more

This Shell Station has the best beer selection. Great stop when all the markets and liquor stores are closed

Great beer selection and awesome service. Fremont in cans. I'm shocked. Cheers! Keep bringing in the interesting brews, and tell the distributors to get more PNW beers. read more

Great craft beer selection and make your own 4 and 6 packs! The variety includes local and nationwide breweries with good style varieties.

Very fun to find craft beers at an ordinary-seeming gas station. I got a big bottle of the Bottle Logic Red Rover, which was super delicious. It had a huge bourbon taste and a good alcoholic kick. Now I'm a fan! read more

Don't advertise that you are open 24 hours if you are not open. At 1:55am 09/12/20 Employee sat on his phone, trying to ignore my presence as I tried to get his attention. Didn't get up out of his chair or put his phone down. I just moved to the neighborhood, have had great experiences up until tonight. I will now take my business elsewhere. read more

The cashier is uncivilized, knocked on the bathroom door twice when I was using the bathroom, and he told me the bathroom is not for personal use after I came out, so I can't take a shit for 10minutes?????? I hate someone bother me when I am using the bathroom. I don't even want to come back to this place no more, someone fire this impolite cashier. read more
