Whenever I'm in St. Catharines, I get gas from this station because they are 95% of the time…read more$0.10/L lower than the usual prices. They are far less busy than the Esso station slightly north of this station. Essentially the three stations (Petro-Canada , Esso, and Shell) on Ontario Street have the cheapest gas in St. Catharines and the surrounding area. One nice plus for this place is that their window washing liquid has soap in it (most gas stations just use water which is dirty most of the time).
The gas stations along this stretch of Ontario st were known as ground zero during the "gas wars",…read morewhere they had the lowest gas not only in the city, but the entire province. The price gap today isn't as drastic, but in general this station still keeps prices at the lowest in the city, even if it's a fraction of a cent. During gas price hikes the gap increases, and you'll know because you will literally be waiting in line to fill up. You may want to weigh the time wasted vs the amount you save, as well as the aggravation of navigating the crowds. But if you're in the area and need gas, you can be pretty certain you won't save anything by driving around so if it's not crowded it's a solid choice.

Pioneer Gas Station
Terrible Experience, incredibly rude staff…read more I tried to pick up a U-Haul at this gas station and Mr. Patel (The Cashier) was extremely rude. Somehow a few questions about using a debit card rather than a credit card upon pickup for the U-Haul made Mr Patel extremely frustrated. This lead to name calling, excessive swearing and being told to "f*ck myself", and being screamed at to "leave the f*cking store" (in front of other customers mind you) upon request of speaking to a manager. Safe to say my issue never got resolved and I had to cancel my reservation with U-Haul because of it. Very classy staff with exceptional service and a great way to run a business. Hopefully the manager doesn't condone this behaviour.

Esso
This is the newest gas station in St. Catharines, opening 2022-12-01. It is at the north-west end…read moreof St. Catharines, near the QEW. It is located on a brand new big property. All facilities are new because there was nothing there before. There are 10 gas pumps in the middle of the lot, nicely spaced apart. There is an attached convenience store called "On The Run". There is a car wash which is almost finished construction. There will be a Tim Hortons, separate from the convenience store, in the near future. I was there on 2023-01-03. On that day, the typical gas price was 149.9 c/L. This gas station had a price of 144.9 c/L. However, St. Catharines' cheapest prices for Esso were normally on Ontario St, and on the same day, the price was 139.9 c/L. There were some troubles with the card reader at the pumps, even though the temperature was about 5C. Trivia: The owner also owns an Esso at 278 Lake St (which I've been to before) and 7 stations in Toronto. There is no free WiFi. The facility is wheelchair accessible. There is free parking.

The staff at the esso store were unhelpful, they blamed me using inappropiate words and refused to refund my money. I do not recommend this car wash. The worst experience in my life.
Shell Canada Products
The hype is real. My coworker, Justin S has been telling Ryan F and myself of the gas wars in St…read more Kitts and how their prices are crazy low compared with even Niagara Falls which is a border town. Well on Saturday Dec 19th the last price I saw before leaving GTA was something like 102.9. On the way back from a quick stop in Niagara Falls I popped in to this Ontario street Shell to get gas because I wanted to see for myself exactly how much it was. I was not disappointed. From 102.9 to 88.9 that's a difference of 14 cents. I know there's more affordable gas in Vaughan than other locations in GTA when compared to say Etobicoke or Burlington but 14 cents less than the rest of the GTA? That's truly way below and considering it's even less than Niagara Falls which is a border town (mind you the USD exchange is horrible now), still that's a pretty great savings. If you happen to be passing through St. Catharines buy gas anywhere around Ontario street or where ever it's cheap! I choose Shell because of Air Miles and I'm just used to going to Shell. The pumps here DO NOT have pay at the pump which is really strange I thought but you do not have to pre-pay on the pump I was at least. I can't remember the last time I couldn't pay at the pump and I didn't have to pre-pay. Different yes but savings, also yes.
Petro-Canada & Car Wash
Wife : Honey, pull into this Petro Canada for a car wash…read more Me : Trust me babe, you don't want to get a car wash from Petro. It won't turn out good. Wife : Come on....you NEVER listen to me. Me: Sure, whatever. Look at my front bumper. This picture was taken just 25 minutes ago. We got the full works. LOL. What a joke. See fellas, this is why they're better off either cooking, cleaning....or anything other than car related stuff.

They had tough rules and were extremely busy. Instead, I usually went to the Petro-Canada slightly south of them. But in 2019, they are no lineups any longer (guess people are used to the cheap prices). So now I'll go there whenever I want to collect PC Optimum points. In 2020, a few other gas stations around the St. Catharines area now have the same low prices, most of the times. There are still no lineups here any longer. I noticed a lack of paper towels. During pandemic times, some gas stations ask you to use their paper towel when using their pumps - great idea - but I could use that idea at this gas station. They have a car wash and tire air pump.
Costco Gasoline
Yay! We found a place to get cheap gas. We were in Niagara Falls on our way back to Toronto and it…read morewas going to be a two hour drive. They had quite a few lanes and there weren't that many people. We waited about 3 minutes to get to a pump. I'm not sure how they calculate the price. It was $109.9 a liter for unleaded and $139.9 a liter for premium. We ended up paying $34.18 for 31.1 liters of gas. I'm not even sure how much gas costs in Canada. All I know is that Costco always has the best prices when it comes to gas. *prices in CAD

This place has HORRIBLE customer service! They don't nicely inform students that it's a 2 student…read morerule but they instead "2 STUDENT AT A TIME" and they are just not pleasant people! The workers don't even allow multiple students in even when it's absolutely freezing because they rudely assume that all students are thieves which is straight up discrimination. If I could leave 0 stars I would but I can't so they get a one. NOBODY GO HERE! Also they have a very poor selection if you're going to discriminate then Atleast have a better selection because that's just disgusting!
Shell
This gas station has one of the cheapest gas in St. Catharines. The price matches the Esso across…read morethe street or is $0.02/L above. I have CAA so I get $0.03/L discount. And my BMO Mastercard VI Porter card gives me $0.02/L discount on top. So it is worth going there. Prices drop throughout the day and is the lowest near midnight. Then it resets again at midnight. I've been using this station for at least Dec 2022. Their windshield washing water actually has good soap in it, a rarity these days at gas stations. There is a convenience store connected to this gas station. The attendant is courteous. There is no free WiFi. The store is wheelchair accessible. There is free parking in their private parking lot.
