Great service men, I was served by a really really amazingly cordial and genuinely friendly…read moreman with darkish skin and dark hair and he was friendly and probably the nicest, most well-socialised person I've met to date. He had never been to Singapore but he did talk about my hometown and asked me many questions , the most friendly and engaging exchange! He seemed like he genuinely wanted to get to know me (people) better : ) Best service, and very tidy station. I went there to pick up some pads ($6.35) and happened to get a sandwich ($5) and some Red Rock Deli chips in Honey Soy Chicken ($3.80) (a favourite, guilty pleasure of mine) at 9:30PM. What a time to get chips. This was on a windy night in Adelaide when all seemed to be coated in an obvious sheet of darkness. The area between Brougham Place and O'Connel street seemed vaster than the sum of its parts, and the wind howled through the parkland. Below the crescent moon, alight in the sky against the backdrop of azure blue violet clouds, against this backdrop stood Caltex shop, at first, ambiguous, but later, heart-warming. The building was seen just below this serendipitous view. And after about 10 minutes of pumping my bike tires at their free air pump outside, in the pitch black of the night, the only light coming from a car not 10 meters in front of me and the Caltex shop, the warm service man's gesture and conversation was a welcome rest for me. Free from the pain of the period that started that day, the wondrous and loving encounter with this stranger warmed me to my soul, as he said, with genuine emphasis: "Please, come back here!" On a cold day, this still resonates to the very bottomless pit of my dark heart, the very bottom of my bottomless heart. I felt, in that moment the exchange of human gesture and kindness, and yes, although there was no one else in the shop, the conversation reached all corners of that large space, and never leaves me, even as I ride back on my bike, with the goods, and the memory of a loving moment with a "strange" person who decided not to be 'strange' to a 'strange' girl (uni-student) in a green T-shirt. And THAT'S why I'm giving Caltex 5-stars for the most amazing user-experience I have ever had to date. (Also, unlike other service stations, the aisles are not crowded with so much stuff that you can't see 2 feet in front of you, and there is a broad and very neat array of things in the aisle, products are good, I couldn't be happier). Also, when I needed them, THEY WERE OPEN! (For something as urgent as pads, I mean, that was a good thing for sure! :)) Uni-Student, Anonymous Also, just in case you need to know, they also have bags of ice here for really cheap. In case you needed some urgently at night, you can get some here ;)

They always seem to be having choccy specials here, which are impossible to resist at the hours (in the middle of the night) I find myself here. Even though by the next morning I've worked out that my special deal cost me double what I'd pay at the supermarket - damnit! For those looking, I get the vibes here that it's quite the pick-up place, you'll see many furtive glances in the direction of you or other patrons. In a nutshell - Adelaides version of it happened one night!

I never thought I'd be writing a review for an On The Run but this one is my favourite…read more It's the after-church hang out more often than not for my group of friends with it's Subway and C Coffee franchises. The coffee is better than most petrol stations (it's not great but it's good when you're they're for a quick snack and pick-me-up). Service is always really nice and they have a fairly well-stocked grocery/convenience section.

I don't mean the standard level of friendliness you'd expect to experience at any other store; the staff at BP Erindale has some of the nicest people I know. The range of items available in store isn't extensive, but adequately meets your basic needs. The prices are above those of nearby supermarkets, but they do have the occasional special deal (usually on canned drinks or snacks). As part of the On The Run franchise, this service station is open 24 hours a day. As such, it's a convenient place to go when there's nothing else open and you're either suffering from junk food cravings, have run out of milk or bread, or are desperately in need of toiletries and personal care items. When I'm low on petrol, regardless of where I am, I'll do my best to hold off on buying fuel before I reach Erindale. The reason I do this is because it's an absolute pleasure talking to the staff. Even in the early hours of the morning, when people are expectedly at their grumpiest, the employees here are always in high spirits. On many occasions I've had long, meaningful chats with the people behind the counter and they've shared some great stories. I'm equally happy to converse and provide some human interaction, as I can't imagine working the graveyard shift at a petrol station would be overly exciting. If you're lucky and you go while Yogesh is working, stick around and have a chat with him - he's an excellent guy and he'd be thankful for making his day a little more interesting!

To this date I have only run out of fuel once, and most of the time, it is thanks to EZY Fuels on OG road and its locality half way between my place and my parents! Although this is one of my local servos I would travel further if required to get here for two reasons. Firstly it is one of the two cheapest stations in town (the other directly across the road). The second reason is that it is under independent ownership, one of very few around the city. Once in a while there is a story on the local news about the price war between this station and it's rival across the way, and they are consistently the cheapest around...so make sure if you are in the area and need to fill up, get on the local boy.
