This servo is small and pretty standard, nothing really stands out. It has pumps, a car wash and is also a Smokemart. Open 24/7 and around the corner from my home, it's a good quick stop for fuel or a drink. read more

Wash n Run

IF YOU WANT PETROL DO NOT GO HERE!!!!! Honestly they label it an On The Run, it has a drive through…read moresmokemart and coffee, plus some standard grocery style items inside and a Subway outlet, plus a decent sized Happy Wash outside.....................................but it has NO PETROL peoples!!!! I always find this ridiculous that BP (or rather the Peregrine Corporation) have a store labelled the same as all the others but it doesn't sell petrol. I have never seen a single other On The Run that did not sell petrol. All the other things are there for convenience when you get your petrol. Anyway, despite the really bugging me with no petrol thing they are usually quite busy here, heaps of commuters use the drive through to get their morning coffee "on the run" and plenty of people also seem to go inside or eat at this Subway store. So I guess as long as they get the people in it must be working for them, even without the petrol! Also it's open 24 hours!

As everyone has said...this place is a 24 hour lifesaver. It has a great range of essential grocery…read moreitems, like chocolate and ice cream, and always smells like that awesome Subway freshly cooked bread (probably because that resides in the On The Run). Isles are well organised and this place is always clean and fresh. Unfortunately anytime I am here during the day to get petrol the service is painfully slow, yet friendly and with a smile. I have never had the EAT or DRINK options here (aptly named) but they don't look that bad. I would probably prefer to actually pick one of their pre-cooked meals or frozen meals from their freezer section though anyway! On The Run is great for petrol but more so for 10pm at night emergencies of the chocolate craving kind.
For some bizarre reason, it can be really hard for a visitor to Adelaide to do any shopping in the…read moreevening. I mean, the last experience that I had with a supermarket in Adelaide was one that was closing up at 6pm, and I'd arrived just in time to see the doors locked. I mean, seriously? Major supermarket closing at 6pm? In a major suburb? I was pretty incredulous, and after spending eight hours in the car, I was pretty buggered. But I needed stuff, and so ended up spending another half hour looking for a place to shop. That's when I stumbled upon this place. It's a service station, but it appears to be the only place where you can get any shopping done when it gets late. They don't have heaps of stuff, but they've got the essentials. They also have the service station mark up prices, so it's not a good idea to buy everything you need here. It's good to know though, that if I need it, it's there.

The Bridgewater Servo, also known as "Joe's" and "Boschie's" by affectionate locals is among the…read morebest of the truly independent service stations left in the hills. One of the main selling points is Joe's uncanny ability to ignore the 'fuel discount cycle,' somehow managing to be a good ten cents a litre cheaper when other petrol stations are at the peak of the cycle. If you're used to the glossy, fluorescent big name petrol stations, it may look a little drab, inside and out, but a business doesn't stay this busy by accident. Maybe, with servos at least, looks really aren't everything.
My local servo. Easy and convenient…read more I come here at least once a week and I always get good service and don't have to wait too long to be served (although I don't usually come at peak hours). The store itself isn't big but has the essentials such as chocolate and Famous magazine ;) also milk and other necessities. A few weeks ago my friend and I went to pump up her car tyres (yes, two girls with no clue about cars getting grease everywhere and making no progress). The shop assistant kindly helped us out and we were off on the road again. She was very helpful and didn't mind showing us what to do. Another good thing about Shell is if you shop at Coles your receipt will give you discount off your petrol per litre. I also find that Shell tends to be a bit cheaper than other servos.

They are always the cheapest around me I find, and it's never very busy which is good, especially for driver sided pumps. They also have air and water as usually, plenty of pumps with all types of petrol, limited snacks inside as its really small and friendly staff. It's not open 24/7 though so if you need petrol at 1am on a week night, go elsewhere.

Fully stocked server with warm food, coffee on the go, ATM, print magazines, newspapers and all the usual bits and bobs you'll find in a server. They even stock greeting cards, so if you forget to buy Mum a card this Mother's Day, grab one NOW.

The grocery selection is vast and although expensive like all late night convenience stores, the choices are pretty good. Staff are nice and preference the petrol customers over the other customers which is such a relief, there is nothing worse than being stuck behind a customer who wants to buy a little bit of everything as you tap your toes thinking of all the other things you could be doing.

They…read morenot only supply petrol, drinks and snacks from a servo perspective but the complex also houses Happy Wash, Brumbies Bakery, Wok in a Box and Subway. Very cool one stop servo to buy those last minute camping trip supplies that you've forgotten about only the previous day at the supermarket. It's also great for milk, bread.....and smokes (if you're into self inflicted bodily harm). Sorry but I don't: - buy petrol from here as I think they don't offer cheap prices and I don't want yet another discount card taking up room in the wallet. (Besides I'm happy my local Caltex and Woolworths connections (no matter how contrived). - Or Wok in a Box, personally I don't like the taste. As I've mentioned before 'each to their own'. But I do like: - Happy Wash :-) This is a valuable service which I think is not too expensive even for a four wheel drive. So what I do is make a booking the day before, get up early on a Sunday morning, be there by 9am, hand over the keys, have my Happy Wash rewards card stamped, get a free complimentary coffee, buy myself a healthy apricot bun for breakfast and The Age, sit myself down and wait happily whilst my car gets a complete make over. Note: At the end of the Happy Wash stamps you get a freebie. - Brumbies Bakery, nice and tasty and good coffee. - Subway make a good sandwish/roll and is a reasonably healthy option and a convenient quick lunch or dinner. The staff I have encountered have always been friendly and quick, some are not so happy but who is that early in the morning!

On The Run on St Marys, South Road is one of the 80 retail convenience locations in Adelaide. Founded in 1984 by Preregrine Corporation, it is truly a service coated with quality, and makes a model business plan for other businesses to follow. Boasting a large premise on site, patrons don't have to queue long before they get access to the pump. You can feel the energy in this servo, as men religiously wash their cars at Happy Wash, family gather to pick pastries and bread at C Cafe and Brumby's respectively, and school kids form a line for their glass of Chill. The 24 hour supermarket is top notch, for working mums who need a quick pit stop of groceries or for a quick dessert pick me up. Expect quality brands here with the likes of Subway, Wok in a Box and SmokeMart. Other services include an ATM and trailer hire. Like them on Facebook to get promo's on their products.

A DIY drive through service, and pampering station for your prized automobile. Located on he main…read moredrag, it's easy to assume there is a petrol station attached, but alas it is a standalone car wash service. Unlike traditional car washes where it is fully automated, you actually get out of the car, insert money into the wall, and manually clean using a spray and broom attached to a hose (You're an ideas man Steve). Happy wash guarantees that your car will remain scratch and damage free, during and after the process, (but then again I was taught a good worker should never blame their tools). The station also claims to use recycled water (whatever that means). A separate work station allows you to vacuum and perfume the interior of your car. It's a convenient service for those that procrastinate cleaning, but you're really just paying for the use of tools and materials.

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!
