There is a free general check up for cars whenever my car's having an oil change and the mechanic always tells me what needs immediate replacement of parts. I love how the branch is conveniently placed, though sometimes the cost of gasoline here is a bit more expensive than other Petron branches nearby. I also like that it has a convenience store, and I can have my RFID-Sweep card reloaded for fast travels in SLEX.

Along it's perimeter are a number of kiosks: Potato Corner, Siomai House, TK Takoyaki, and De Original Jamaican Pattie Shop. In the same lot there is a Starbucks, Chatime, Pancake House and Coffee Bean and Tea. Great place for a foodie pit stop!

There are a few legitimate things that we need in everyday life - food, air, money (keeping it…read morereal), love (keeping it cheesy), and gas. Yes, gas. No, not the one you get when you laugh too hard. I'm talking about the gas (or rather oil) that literally fuels the factories and vehicles we all rely on. There are so many options for us to gas-up, but ninety percent of the time, we head for the branch of Petron in Pamplona Dos, along Alabang - Zapote road. It's not just convenient because it's right outside our village, but the service is wonderful. It can get busy during the rush hour, which I believe is a sign that they have good service, since most gas stations have the same rates. Despite the rush, they gladly offer to check on the coolant and water level of my car, clean the windshield, and check on the tire pressure. Props to our favorite gasoline boy Jonass (yes double S).

The mechanic, 10 yrs in the service (as showing on the shop's wall), showed professionalism (as opposed to the usual auto shop mechanics). Even the staff in the waiting area was really nice and courteous in attending to me. Please keep up the good work! God bless!

They do their best to service their customers. Have been filling up there for several years.read more

This is the only gas station you will get gas from if you're stuck in traffic along McKinley Road…read more Once you see the gas indicator of your car flashing, this is your salvation! They have a few restaurants here. There is Balai Pandesal and also Dakasi. Also, behind the gas station is a bus stop and jeepney stop for people who are traveling to and from BGC/Makati. The only reason I gave this gas station a 4 Star is because the gas prices are a bit more expensive here. That's understandable because of it's location. So, good luck to you fellow traveller!

The Shell station along Dona Soledad Extension has become our favorite for filling up despite being…read morea little out of the way when we are headed for Manila or Makati. The reason is that the service they provide is just a wee but friendlier and faster than its competitors, of which there are three others along Dona Soledad Avenue. There may be differences in the price of gasoline, but these are almost inconsequential. As for performance, it's really hard to tell the difference. It's enough to say that all gasolines sold in the country deliver the goods. Some may be better than others, but just like the differences in pricing, the differences are hardly noticeable. Like many of the full service gas stations, this one has a place to rest and have a bite and a drink. In this case, it's a MiniStop, which opened very recently. Need to use the john? They allow anyone to use theirs, even ordinary commuters. What I like best about this station is the openness. It's not as crowded as the other gas stations in the vicinity. If anyone tells you that all gas stations are the same, don't believe it. Some are really better than others, and in the case of this Shell station along Dona Soledad Extension very near the corner of Russia, both service and products are A-1 for me. Four stars for this service station, folks.

There were a variety of eateries so we ate first and then filled up the tank afterwards. For a large gas station, the parking spots were few. It's because of the restaurants. Filling up the tank was easy. The attendants were friendly. An added bonus, there were a handful of macopa trees! My mom grew up eating macopa, so seeing her excitement was a site I enjoyed. The attendant was generous enough to offer help in picking some off the tree but my mom is a professional. lol The entire property is well maintained and I would eat here again!

When I was a kid and didn't know any better, I assumed that all gas stations had the same prices. I…read morewas always so confused why my dad went out of his way to go to a particular branch of a particular gas company just so we could fill up. Little did I know that the differences between branches could be huge. The cheapest place to get gas in the whole of Manila (barring army or ADB privileges, I guess) is in Fairview. The proprietors there are supposedly into a price war but it's something I can't confirm. What I can vet on however, is the inexpensive gas. Usually the Petron near the Dona Carmen subdivision is around two pesos cheaper than the average going price in Manila. Going here just to get gas won't be financially sound, but if for some reason you find yourself nearby, better get a full tank.

Those who have been living in the south for more than two decades will understand that there is a…read morespecial fondness we have for Total Gas Station along Commerce avenue, mostly because this was the first one in that area. It was a meeting place for out of town trips, coffee in the evening, or just pick-ups. Driving from Nuvali in Laguna on a hot summer afternoon, I suddenly saw that my car was going to overheat anytime. Panicky, I slowed down, made it safely through the exit, and headed towards Total for assistance. Despite not fueling up, they willingly helped me with the car. I must admit that I knew nothing at that time and was afraid to call my Dad. However, I felt safe as I saw that the gasoline attendant who assisted me knew what he was doing; giving me instructions from time to time to check if the temperature was improving. I was so relieved with the help I received that, despite his refusal, I insisted on handing him a hefty tip.
