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.
