Realistically speaking, this place is worth gros max 3 stars...but i like it and i get good service ...so despite it being a bit on the pricey side and the attendants being sourly it gets 4 stars from me.
Things i like:
- it's close to home ...lettin the needle damn near drop below empty is nooooo problemo!
- they pump the gas...no gettin outta the car, on a winter day: that's worth the higher gas price!
- it's a pop n son kinda place ...love the community vibes
- gas station + méchanique générale + tires n shtuff fo sale... In the neighborhood... Nice lil local place despite the franchise anyways.
- it's fairly tidy...they don't appear to accumulate too much scrap or dead cars so tha's pleasant too
- they fixed the nail that deflated my car tire in less than 20 minutes without RDV, just showed up in the mornin n boom all done!
Update 2017-05-04: I showed up at 11:40 and by 11:55 i got 2 screws pulled from my tires 35$ cuz one screw didn't cause a leak and put 20$ gas in ...and they were fairly sweet today lol!
What would likely keep most ppl from coming back...or coming at all:
- gas price higher than most on any given day ...1.29/L just last wk ouch! (was 127 at the pricier places in town)
- pop can be quite, quite sourly sometimes, even if ur super duper friendly with him...son isn't much friendlier for that matter. Can sometimes get a bit of a side smile out of 'em if ur reallllllyyyyy tryin lol
- it's a bit small n tucked into a very residential area so manoeuvring in and outta there sometimes takes skill. Sometimes impossible because it does actually get pretty packed at random times.
- it is just a franchise so it's nuthin worth goin outta ur way for...
- that fixed tire ...less than 20 minutes sure ...but 20$ seemed a bit pricey imo for a piece of gum, well appreciated as it was.
Update 2017-05-04: at Walmart's M.Lube it woulda cost 30$ per tire, so it's actually not a con after all, it's cheaper here.
Anywoot, they're decent if ur in the area. read more
