I came by here late at night and I wanted to get gas. Originally I was going to go to my homebase Costco, which is located in Richmond, however, I went somewhere else and happened to be driving by so I came here. It was great! I got my gas, I left. The only issue is the signage for the gas station. There's no direct way to get to the gas station and if you follow the signs you will get lost. I know because I've been here 2-3 times in the past few years that I need to get to the gas station in a different way and so I'm used to that route. But that was not enough for them to lose a star. I also know that sometimes they are really really busy so I was lucky enough to come at a time and late enough that I was not stuck in traffic trying to get to the pumps to get my gas. All in all, it was good. I'd say easy Peezy and if in the area, I would definitely come back and get my gas. read more

It could be better marked. The GPS took me into the main entrance and I had to ask someone how to get to it. Better signage would be helpful but I was happy with the facilities and it wasn't too long of a wait which makes it very convenient. 4 stars just because of the signage otherwise 5 stars. read more

Quality/Quantity - I am a regular loyal customer. And just noticed this Yelp check-in. I will post all my Costco gas pictures here, moving forward. Atmosphere - One way in, two exits. The person who closed the other entrance is a GENIUS!! Has improved the flow significantly. If only drivers were smart enough to NOT block the entrance, NOT cause a bottleneck, and just drive further down.... I typically get my gas before and after Costco warehouse hours = 5 stars. During warehouse hours, it can be a mess here. Service - Self service. Price - Most reasonable prices in the area. Less expensive than the other East Bay Costcos. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success at this location since 1987. Congrats on all your success since 1976, since Price Club. Now you are the 5th largest retailer in the world and #10 on the Fortune 500. 804 warehouses worldwide, with 558 in the US. 1980 - IPO. 1993 - Price Club and Costco merger. 1997 - Rebrand all locations to Costco. 2024 - 132 million members. read more

My go to for gas, they always have the cheapest gas around. But it is always circus here if you go during the day, lines move a lil slow sometimes. I have figured out that if you go earlier morning or later in the evening, not that many people. So thats the times I go, been doing that for over 5 years now!!!! read more

We love getting gas at Costco but avoid pump #11 as it overflows and does not stop pumping. It is in the 2nd bank of pumps counting from the left. There are 3 problems with this pump: 1) It pumps very slowly - everyone else will be done before you are. It took at least 5 minutes just to get 3 gallons. 2) The pump will not stop pumping gas. You will end up paying for spilled gas that you couldn't stop. Hubby had to hurry up and stop it manually. 3) Won't print receipt either. We waved the worker to come over and he just stood there. We drove over to him and told him about the problems with the pump. His response - "Just don't use that pump next time" Are you kidding me? They should at least forewarn people. Put a sign on it or put caution tape or something. So I'm forewarning everyone - AVOID PUMP #11!!!! You'll be paying for spilled gas and standing there forever to pump gas. When we got gas - it was $4,39 on Sunday - amazing how the gas prices fluctuates up and down. read more

Very difficult to find. There are signs that say gas this way, but then the signs end and you are outside the costco parking lot. We lucked out and found the gas station. They need more signs. You can't see the gas station when you enter the parking lot. They have a sensor that tells you which tanks are open. This is helpful as you can't see 3 cars deep. Now I know where the gas station is, I'll be back. $4.15 a gallon. Good price for the day. read more

Costco Gasoline - Sensor to show what lane is open - Gas Stations Near Me - San Leandro, California

I am a fan of Costco gas stations. This branch in San Leandro is no exception. The gas station is hidden away from the main entrance to the warehouse. Despite that fact, it still gets crazy busy during warehouse hours. I try to fill up the gas tank here before or after regular warehouse hours. Lot less crazy at the gas station if you do that. Like the fact that they also have more pumps at this gas station than most of the other Costcos. Low prices plus good quality gas will keep me patronizing their gas stations whenever I am in the area. read more

Costco Gasoline - Gas Stations Near Me - San Leandro, California

Not all Costco gasoline stations are alike. Designed the same, service, the same procedure at the same. However, You'd better know how to read signs or you will never ever find this gas station. Even Siri on my GPS got confused But it's small fast clean and good. read more

who doesn't like cheaper top tier gasoline? the gas pays for the membership by itself.

I am a huge Costco gas fan, you know when your dad tells you only fill up at one place and this is my go to. This gas station is super convenient as it's to the side of the store and has multiple point of entries. The lines may look long but they go pretty quickly read more

Costco Gasoline - 5/14/22 - Gas Stations Near Me - San Leandro, California

My family members who drive go to Costco for gasoline refill and have a range of gas options! We often go to California Costco locations due to proximity and cost effectiveness! read more

4 stars. Price 5 stars, usually cheaper than anything else in the area. Minus one star (being critical here) b/c it is always so busy and b/c there are always fools here who clog the entry point and sometimes don't drive around to fill spots in the middle or the end. They finally blocked off the entry point on the store side and I think that has helped things a bit, b/c that used to be a mess. Me taking off a star is not going to effect the business that is drawn to this costco gas, so I don't feel bad about it at all. lol. Plus no one will read this review, people just post a review for this b/c it was suggested b/c of a check in (something us yelp nerds do). No one looks up costco gas stations on yelp to decide whether to go. read more

Well today I was pleasantly surprised no lines!!! I drove up to Costco expecting long outrages lines. I got there two min. Later filled up my tank and I was n my way Yippee! This was a very nice surprise. Now I'm able to go not Costco purchase all my goodies and finish up for the day early. read more

Great Value! Cheaper Gas! Always competitively priced! Always been a fan of Costco Gas.. expect a wait but it's worth it ! read more

I'm a Baller On a Budget!!! So I'm a Big Fan of Costco Gasoline Station s !! They are usually the Cheapest Price Gas In Town!!! The Gas Pumps are usually Clean and updated. Self Serve of Course!!! Baller on a budget Approved !!!! read more

I just avoid it if the lines reach the street. And it's unpredictable when that happens. I just do a quick check and see if it's worth my time. Otherwise, I don't mind spending the extra $1 or 2 at another gas station. I like how they accept all Visa cards now. I try not to go out of my way to pump gas here but if it's on the way, why not?? Only thing I don't like is that it can get super windy. read more

If you are a Costco member this is the best gas price in town. There are lots of pumps. They have red and green signals to let you know which pump is available. The best time to go is first thing on a weekday morning (6:30-7:00). It does get busy and you may have to wait otherwise. We are going to make it a routine. read more

I'm a Costco convert! I never thought I'd buy a car in the 14 years I've lived in the Bay Area, but the pandemic was a great reason for added safety and reliable transportation, especially for visiting my family in LA. I bought my Costco membership for the gas and $1.50 hotdog alone. The membership card paid for itself after a few months! As of today, 12/29/21, the regular gas price is $4.19/gal, which is so much cheaper than some of the pumps I've been seeing on the road--some as high as $5.5/gal. On my way back from the Oakland Airport or on my way to Los Angeles, I usually fill up my tank and grab a hotdog and soda on my way out. This place does get super busy, so come the earlier the better! Avoid Sundays if possible. read more

This location has got to be the busiest & cheapest on this side of the East Bay in the San Francisco Bay Area! Where the gas station stands now used to be a huge parking lot, and I can't believe being a native San Leandran - I've seen this place sprung up from usually empty parking spaces, to a sprawling hustlin' & bustlin' gas station with 32-pumps located in a remote part of the warehouse compound! Don't worry, ya'll won't get lost - since you can pretty much follow the trickle of slow traffic getting into the warehouse! On the other hand, this is truly an incentive of having a membership, as offering cheap gas is a way to attract & retain members! What an advantage, especially during these trying times we're currently experiencing in the midst of a pandemic. It always causes a gridlock getting in & out, due to the relatively cheap & low gas prices that everyone knows how Costco does best! Their gas attendants are always helpful & can assist you if you need assistance - in addition, would go out of their way to even put cones around your car when you need to jump-start it! I know how it can be hectic during peak periods, and being a local resident - the best times are really when it first OPENS in the morning - whether it be a weekday OR a weekend, and when it CLOSES at night - whether it be a weekday OR a weekend. It is really a big incentive living in the same city where there's a Costco! #whew Always remember that 'patience is a virtue', and just make sure to have your Costco membership card ready, to be able to utilize & fill up your vehicles with gas! Don't forget that they only take VISA and/or Costco gift cards! read more

Costco Gas usually has more affordable pricing than if you went to Chevron or Shell for all of the grades, which is a huge plus to me. What I like about this location is that it has 4 islands with at least 3 pumps on each side to use. Late last year or earlier this year, I noticed they installed indicator lights to notify customers when a pump was open or taken. This was super helpful for people waiting in line, especially those who can't see if a pump is vacant or not. The pumps work pretty fast, but it's disappointing they don't have squeegees to use while you wait. In order to purchase the gas, you need to be Costco member. You can pay with your Costco Visa credit card, a Costco shop card, or most PIN debit cards. Depending on the location you're at, gas prices may vary from each Costco. Keep in mind this location is next to an Amazon delivery hub so the car traffic can be a bit heavy at times. The hours for the gas station makes it fairly convenient for people who start their days early or end their work day later. Overall this location is pretty clean and it has at least two entrances to enter the gas queues. read more

Who doesn't want to fill up your gas tank for up to 25 cents less a gallon than competitors? That's the savings you get buying your gas at Costco. The gas is not a lower grade of fuel as it is rate Top Tier fuel. Though you need to be a Costco member to buy the gas, but if you're not a member, have a Costco member purchase Costco gift cards for you and use them to buy your gas. Gas prices due to vary from Costco to Costco. I purchased gas at the Richmond location the day before for $.16 more a gallon. San Leandro's Costco has 24 pumps with six pumps in each of the four islands. I appreciate the indicator lights...red for occupied and green for open on the pillars, which helps since you sometimes can't see if the front pump has been vacated when you're in line. read more

Pretty good gas station. Came here on a Friday evening and was able to get to an open pump within 1 minute.

Make sure you have gas before opening. Don't waste peoples time. Be sure to have a sign or post somewhere that we don't have gas.

With over 15 pumps at the Costco gas station, you can bet it's worth it to wait in line for $5.89/gal gas during the summer of gas price surge. TIP: if you go through the Costco parking lot then exit towards the gas sign, you'll be able to cut the cut and get to the pumps faster. read more

Best fuel prices in town! Costco fuel is certified top tier. I haven't noticed my vehicles running any differently on Costco gas. I feel much safer at these pumps than at a service station in a questionable neighborhood. I do however dislike waiting to fuel my vehicles. If you plan your visit right you won't have much of a wait. Early morning or an hour before closing seems best. read more

Great place to refuel before returning your rental car to Oakland airport as the prices are way cheaper than the surrounding area. When I was visiting the price different seemed to be as much as 50 to 60 cents! I came around 7 pm and the lines weren't bad. We were able to pull right in and start pumping read more

Seems like 9:10pm is a good time to get gas here as well. The other war wagon was running low and once again I managed to slide right up to a pump. No waiting! read more

If I can get here in the AM, the pumps open at 630a ( I believe) This is always the first place I go to if I have enough gas to get here! The pumps are pretty fast and gas is the cheapest around. If you happen to come her during the day - you may get stuck getting out of the lot or the side street for awhile because this Costco is notorious for the backups and having troubles leaving the lot. read more

Why was the Costco Gas page merged with the main warehouse and a new Gas page created? This page should also have the word "Gas" in its name as half of the reviews aren't even for the gas station itself. Anyways, I don't get the hate for this Costco Gas. If you are a regular to any Costco gas stations, you are used to the wait and/or know the way around it. Go at off hours if you can and the lives are shorter/faster. The only difference with this has station is that it is next to one of the main Amazon hub in the East Bay. So, avoid this place during the holidays (when people are ordering tons of stuff from Amazon) if possible because you get a huge wait from the regular Costco customers weaving in and out of the parking lot and then you get the back side traffic because the Amazon delivery drivers are all trying to pick up their packages for delivery. It can be a huge clusterf*ck and can take over 30 minutes to get out. Regardless, I still love Costco gas because it is by far the cheapest gas without being the lowest quality (*cougharcocough*). They also recently implemented this traffic signs of sort in front of each lane to let you know if the further up gas pumps are free so that you don't need to keep stretching your head out to see if you can pull forward. read more

Costco Gasoline - Gas Stations Near Me - San Leandro, California

All platforms record Costco gas as being open. It's closed today unfortunately. The gas pumps were on but cones were blocking the entry. So many cars pulled into this gas station just to turn back around. Waste of time. Costco should put more effort in updating their hours of operation. read more

My favorite gas station by far! Costco workers just seem to really like their job and to help customers. I heard there's even a waiting list to work at San Leandro Costco since it's such a popular work place. Personally, this is the one and only Costco that I regularly swing by since it's easy to get to from my place. Best of all, the workers are super welcoming and cheerful! read more

I have been to a couple of Costco Gasolines in California but this is by far my favorite. An attendant is a "excuse me" away. It has a constant flow of traffic but I am usually in and out so quickly! There is plenty of space iffff there was a long line but the wait time here is minimal. I am a fan of getting Costco gas but before coming to this one it truly felt like a mission getting gas. I would have to allot more time and spend nearly 10+ minutes to fill up. Has proven to be quick and easy! read more

It's cheap Costco gasoline! For the crazy crowds they have, they do a good job trying to get people though! read more

Costco Gasoline - Love the 'empty pump' indicator!! - Gas Stations Near Me - San Leandro, California

once again, this costco has a dedicated gas station webpage. how long will it last? a previous webpage lasted only days as it got merged with the main Costco webpage. fyi. other costco locations have dedicated gasoline webpages. why is this location not worthy of same? driveby notes: -this location has the cheapest gas in the bay area. -lines are the normal on weekends, mornings. afternoons on weekdays have random no waiting times. -main parking lot in front is chaotic as cars literally stay stationary waiting for a parking space. -people in parking lot walk around like zombies oblivious to cars trying to pass. read more

We've been lucky to get here at the right time, every time we come.. most of the time we're filling two cars. No issues, and we really havent had any interactions with the station staff. read more

Value is high point, though active traffic management to ensure folks flow into the islands would help in reducing wait time.

If the lines are long grab something to eat or drink as you wait. Best prices in town!

Although the lines can be long, Costco gas is the cheapest you can find. Has two entrances to help the flow. read more

Waited in line for at least 15 minutes. Lines not moving. Finally my line opened and I pulled up to the pump. Costco employee started hitting my car. I opened my window and he starts yelling at me. "We're closed!!!" Why I ask. He starts yelling at me, "you don't listen to me. The pumps aren't working." I ask why not. He says there's no pressure. And yells at me again the we aren't listening to him. I suggested that maybe he should have told us while we were waiting instead of after waiting and he walks off yelling at other people. I get stuff breaks. No need to be an asshole. read more
