Costco is usually a pleasant experience. I mean how bad can it really be right? You go in, grab your stuff at a great price, pay and leave. So what makes the difference between a good and bad experience? The employees! We had the pleasure and displeasure of getting checked out by Brian and Sam. As I was placing the items on the belt, one item accidentally hit Brian's hand as it toppled onto his side and he gave me the dirtiest look ever! Like dude, relax and don't be such a dick! Sam on the other hand was so pleasant! He was playing with the kids, helped us put our stuff on the belt and was courteous and friendly the whole time. It doesn't stop there! We ordered a half and half pizza before going in, they said, "it'll be ready in 20 minutes" so we think ok, it'll be ready by the time we come out. WRONG! We finish our shopping, head to the food court, yet I'm met with another asshole with an attitude who says "it'll be ready in 20 ..." like WHAT?! So then I asked him to give me whatever is ready and then comes another dirty look acting like I'm asking him to reinvent the wheel! I've been to this Costco many times and this has been the worst experience so far! What did you guys do to your employees today, @Costco?!? read more

So, pretty much everybody knows...The hot dogs are a delicious treat for a great price! I believe the average price for me, over the last 20 years, has been about $186. Perhaps, there will be a day when I can just go to get one hotdog and a coke for $1.50; that is if I don't get sucked into the warehouses front door!! read more

The deal on the hot with a drink is amazing. You cannot get a cheaper deal on that. The price on a slice of their big pieces pizza or a whole pizza box is also great. You're just limited on the toppings because it's only cheese or pepperoni now. This Costco hasn't changed to Coke yet so it's still Pepsi here. The customer service is great especially now that you can come during the executive hour so it's less busy. read more

Has Costco ever disappointed any of us? Value, quality, even the ambience of outdoor seating! Variety of options for food, drinks and desserts. Soon we'll consider Costco our premier restaurant! read more

A first time to this Costco after our son and daughter-in-law recently moved into their Simi Valley home nearby. A convenient stop when we need a Costco visit while in the neighborhood. Especially with our first grandchild arriving soon, meaning frequent visits to Simi will be quite often lol! Each Costco location really takes time figuring out their unique layout. read more

This is by far the worst Costco food court in Ventura County. After this experience, I will not be ordering pizza from here again. Bear with me, it's long. To start, they rarely answer the phone. It took me six calls just to get through and place my order. I finally placed a half-and-half pizza order at 5:55 PM and was told it would be ready in 25-30 minutes. That seemed reasonable, so I went shopping while I waited. At 6:30 PM, I got in line and showed my receipt and name for the order. I was told it would be another 10 minutes. I waited by the pickup window, and after those 10 minutes passed, I showed another clerk my receipt. He then told me it would be five more minutes. At this point, I was already getting frustrated. While I was still waiting at the window, another customer came and stood next to me. A clerk came out with a half-and-half pizza, looked at her, and said, "Half and half, right?" She replied, "Yes! That was fast," grabbed the pizza, and walked away. I immediately told the clerk, "I think that was actually my pizza that you just gave away." He looked embarrassed, went to the back, picked up an unbaked pizza, and put it in the oven. He then told me, "Sorry, I just had to put a fresh one in. It'll be six quick minutes." I reminded him that at that point I had already been waiting about 50 minutes. He apologized and said to wait there and that he would call my name when it was ready. However, he kept my receipt and told me it was fine because he had thrown it away and would just call my name instead. Six minutes passed--nothing. Then another five minutes went by. By this point, the clerk who had been helping me seemed to have disappeared, along with the other employees working the window. Eventually, someone came over and asked what I was waiting for. I explained the entire situation, and he asked for my receipt. When I told him one of the clerks had taken it, he looked confused. I also mentioned that I had now been waiting over an hour for this pizza. He simply placed the pizza on the counter and said, "Okay, here you go." There was no apology or acknowledgment of the situation. I understand the pizza is only $10, but the lack of organization, communication, and basic customer service made this experience incredibly frustrating. It simply isn't worth the hassle. Costco should do better. read more

Love a Costco that has gasoline & their prices. Depending on the time of day it can get busy with a wait. There's always someone working there in case you need help. I'll pick a Costco gas over any other station any day. read more

Amazing food and prices. The staff works really hard. Love being able to order on digital stations.

Food court line strategy SUCKS ! Big time ! Every time I come there is no one ordering in the self check outs, like two people pushing orders out and a line of like 20 ?! There is a problem here, I've been seeing this in multiple locations. Love Costco but this new way/not so new of going about getting food where you pay first then get in line to get your food is not it ! And the line last forever, it was never this way.and it's only a slow Wednesday:( read more

A Top Tier gasoline (guaranteeing the quality) and always a great deal! I wish all Costco warehouses had gas stations. The pump hoses are long enough allowing customers to pull up to a pump regardless of where one's gas tank is, the hose will reach. PS you can search which stations near you sell Top Tier verified gasoline at toptiergas.com read more

Can you please post gas station hours. Not warehouse hours under Costco gasoline, that would be helpful for those that travel. We are in a RV- We use 80 gallons- which takes time. read more

Costco is a great place to shop, and the price is very reasonable. Plus, I can always grab some gas while I'm there. Their gasoline has a very good quality. read more

Best gas price in town if you're a member. I just wished they would add more pumps to get rid of their long lines during busy hours.

$4.99 is the best price around during these high gas prices. It is even better to come here during Costco Wholesale store's non-business hours, which is before 10am and after 8:30pm when it's less crowded with cars. I just wish the place had squeegees to clean the glass windshield of my car lol read more

Great prices, easy in and out and fast moving line. The convenience of the store being right there is also good

Decent Costco , but super busy at times but now costco has quick self check out so there really isn't a line . I left my card in the car once post gas purchase and it was easy having the manager look up my account they did it while i was in the quick check. Since this costco is in Ventura County the liquor prices are much lower as well as the gasoline. However they don't carry some of the premium liquors brands that other costco's carry like lagavulin 16 . The gas price per gallon 4/6/22 $5.39 for 87 Octane . read more

Don't bother trying to get gas here if you don't have a physical Costco card on hand. No matter what I tried the digital scanner will not register my account. In order to get the phone at the correct angle and close enough to the scanner it triggers Apple Pay to pop up your wallet and block the barcode, which makes the app completely useless. It's so unreliable I don't even bother trying anymore. And there have never been any attendants out when I've been there to ask about it. read more

**August 2021 Visit** Came here to fuel up recently and this Costco gas line experience was standard with all other Costco gas filling experiences. It was $3.999 a gal for regular gas, which I think is reasonable for the area. Regardless, I I believe there were 6 lanes with two pumps on each side, so 24 spots! read more

Best time to fuel up here is before they close at 7:30 pm. But, if you have to during earlier hours, You wont wait long. They have 8 lanes I think and if the patrons will have some patience and not jump into the front of the 2nd car to fill, 2 cars can pretty much fill up at the same time. Can't beat their prices. read more

$4.5 still better than $4.6 and no wonder the line of cars getting here to pump gas, well it's way out there avoiding all that LA traffic, so you're in luck, but then getting out after you're done will require some mathematical skill, since there's 2 gas pumps each row but the gap in between them are so small, you cannot drive around the other car unless he/she decided to move up to the end and get out of your way, that's usually the case here, just gotta watch both ways as you exit read more

Self checkout makes faster lines, so much easier for few or many items. Some items not available any more, but other items a real bargain for price and quality. Some food court choices also gone Cash back on the costco visa makes once a year splurge great like an $85 ribeye roast but for everyday the rotisserie chicken is unbeatable for up to four delicious meals. read more

Gas for 3.80 today! Place was packed everyone headed out of town with their trailers at 1:30 pm. The lines move pretty fast for 10 deep each lane. Just move over to the lanes with the small cars. Lol. Watch out for the crazy drivers in and around the gas station area. read more

Wasted 30 minutes to wait in line for more expensive gas than I could get elsewhere I hate that they hide the price from you until you're already at the pump. read more

This is one of the most efficient Costco Gas Stations in the Ventura County area. I make it a point to always go when I need to fill up. The prices are always reasonable, and the line goes by relatively quick. It may seem like it is always busy, but I don't think I have waited more than 10 minutes ever. Often they have the side exit to the right (as you're leaving) open in order avoid the crowded Costco parking lot. If you ever need help with any of the pumps, there are always Costco employees walking around to assist you. I have even gone there right as they are about to close, and the attendant will leave the pumps open for an additional few minutes so that customers do not get turned away. If you're ever in the area, it's always a great idea to stop by; just remember your membership card and VISA credit cards, as well as All debit cards are accepted. read more

Yelp 100 Challenge 34 This Costco gas is right off the freeway, making it very accessible whenever I'm in the area. The lines are long, although I've noticed they move quickly. Can't beat the prices here plus, when using the Costco Visa card we get refunds at the the end of the year which is a great perk. Hoses are quite long and reach either side of the car. Attendants are easily accessible if one needs help. read more

Costco - Long lines today and the prices are going up - Gas Stations Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Can't beat the prices, for sure. Stopped by yesterday while running other errands in the area. They were quite crowded at the lunch hour on a Thursday. They have many gas pumps, so the lines move fairly quickly. Must have Costco card to use the facilities. They now accept VISA credit cards, having ended their long-standing deal with American Express. There's normally an attendant roaming around should anyone need assistance. Thanks, Dear Hubby, for pumping the gas! read more

The price of their gas is usually .20 cents less than the price at the other retail gas stations. The line is usually very long so it is best if you can get there early in the day or before they close to avoid the lines. read more

What's not to like about Costco gasoline....besides the long lines and the 80 year old man in front of you who wants to wait until the person in front of him is finished before he pulls away from the pump. Besides that everyone loves the low price and decent quality petrol. One drawback from this loc is they only have two pumps in each row instead of 3 or 4 at other locations. Also the ingress and egress to get to the fuel center has you drive through the entire parking lot. read more

Reliably the least expensive gas in town, and great hours. Make sure you don't go during rush hour if you don't want to wait in line.

This pretty much the only gas station I go to. Yes, there are long lines but when you have a lot to fill up, the few minute wait is totally worth it. They're on average 20 to 30 cents cheaper a gallon than the cheapest places and low quality gas stations around anyways. They have plenty of pumps and are open before and after warehouse hours. read more

I never knew these guys had a Yelp page but here goes nothing Pro: best prices around Con: long lines Still worth it to get gas here and while you're at it, go inside for some samples! read more

Great prices. I get there early and it's in and out. Or get there just before 9am and do some "senior hours" shopping. Love it!

Costco gas is a great place to get a little discount on your gas prices. They are always cheaper than the other local gas station. They do only sell regular and premium gas, so if you are looking for the mid grade, go somewhere else. This station is very nice but gets super busy during peak hours and you will have a long wait. I like to go early in the morning and later in the evening. Try to avoid the gas station on Saturdays as it gets crazy busy! There is usually an attendant around to help you if you are having problems with the pump, and in my experience, they have always been super friendly and helpful. You will need your Costco card and just like inside Costco, they only take American Express or your debit cards. No Visa or Mastercard taken here. read more

If you've ever used Costco for gasoline you already know what you're getting into here. Usually long lines but the wait is worth it if you'd like to save 20+ cents per gallon. Tips: 1) Avoid the weekends like the plague. If you visit on a weekend, you may want a tent and pillow so you can camp out while you wait. 2) Use the far right lane. The one lane feeds into 4 pumps so you will get through quicker. 3) Remember your Costco card. If you don't have it, you're going to have a bad time. (The attendant can probably cut you some slack, but it'll be embarrassing and time consuming.) If you're cost conscious about your gas money (and who isn't with these California prices and taxes?!) Costco Gas is the best bang for your buck. Would be 5 stars but the wait can get pretty annoying. read more

Costco - Gas Stations Near Me - Simi Valley, California

Best value in town and I love how organized it is. All cars enter on one side and exit on the other. You must be a member to get gas.

$3.99 filled up $70 a little over 17 gallons. Saved $8.33 by using Costco vs Chevron. The long lines are discouraging but at the end saving money is more important than waiting for 20 minutes in an organized line read more

Regular and premium grades at Costco prices with Costco lines. The gas station was the main reason I came here, as I was on the 118 and figured I would hop off for a quick fill. The mid afternoon holiday weekend lines were not outrageous, but a longer wait than a typical gas station. Of course, the prices are lower than a typical gas station, so you are saving somewhere between $1 and $2 per fill up. read more
