This Petro-Canada station was the closest one to my hotel. It is also next door to the Starbucks…read morecafe that I frequented daily during my stay in Ottawa. I filled up my car's gas tank before I headed back home. There are plenty of pumps. The station is clean. I didn't have a chance to go into the convenience store. I already had my Starbucks beverage with me. I was good with what I had. The gas price here is standard. There are tons of parking spots if you need to run into the store or take a break before driving off to your destination. (219)

This is for the convenience store part of the place, and not gas…read more The good: Good choice of candy, chocolate bars, ice cream, and other snacks. Good choice of drinks. Pretty decent for such a small place. The bad: Staff could care less and cannot look customers in the eyes. That was the only bad part of it. Good selection for such a small place. Too bad the staff looks grumpy.

This is the worst Esso in Ottawa I think. Staffs here are rude, inefficient, And unprofessional…read more But I keep coming Esso to get my gas because of the convenient location and, I have bonus points from Hbc reward program. With these points, I could get approximately $10-$20 free gas every month and get bonus aeroplan miles at the same time. Over all, I would rather collect my rewards points and redeem them at another Esso station. BTW, the SpeedPass key tags are terrible! It's hard for me to judge whether I paid or not at a pump. I have to walk inside and pay again like paying by credit! In addiction, this Esso station wrongly charged me twice! The first time was $100, and the second time was about $20. If I don't have a habit of checking my credit record regularly, I won't notice that!

i agree with Miao M. this is the worst station for customer service. attendant was rude and…read moreunprofessional. the management needs to educate and train their staff to what the meaning of customer service is all about. the establishment is not wheelchair friendly, nor the staff. if you need to go to a convenience store, go to Joe's convenience across the street instead of going to esso. if you need gas, go to the petro canada next door for better service.

This is my local Petro Canada. It's at the southeast corner of Carling and Maitland. There's an…read moreEsso at the northeast corner. They are competitors, and I pretty much go to whichever one has the lowest price, unless I need a car wash, then I go to the Esso because this Petro Canada does not have a car wash. If you are going northbound on Maitland or eastbound on Carling, it is easy to access this Petro Canada, otherwise it's a bit of a pain, and it's much easier to just go to the Esso, lol. I guess this is why they can both co-exist at this corner. This Petro Canada is small. The convenience store attached is tiny. There's no slush machine. It's just chips, gum, chocolates, etc. I'm pretty sure they also sell lottery tickets and cigarettes, but those are things I never buy. I pretty much just buy gas and go, so it's definitely good for that, haha!

The app sucks and the web sit is not much better. Frustrating every time i buy a wash cardread more

This Petro never seems to be that busy and it may be due to the slightly awkward adjacent parking…read morelot entrance, but it also has quite a few pumps, so that helps too. As with most gas stations, they have propane for sale, and this Petro also has a car wash as well. Pro tip: any Petro Canada cash wash vouchers can be used at all Petro stations (with a car wash). Useful if ever your local car wash is under maintenance. It's clean inside and the staff are actually pretty engaging and helpful, which is a nice change compared to some other gas stations.

I used to trust these guys with my cars, but when they offered to diagnose the 'check engine'…read moreproblem by hooking my van up to a machine for two days to the tune of $125/hour (total: $2000) I started to wonder. Did some Internet research, bought an OBD2 unit for $120 and found the problem myself... a loose gas cap. Now I'm questioning the new battery they installed as well as the brake job they did. Anyone working in a service station should know that any vehicle should be moving while turning the wheels. Otherwise, it's hard on the power steering pump, the entire steering system, as well as the transaxles. The attendant who drove my car out of the bay when I went to pick it up is either ignorant of this fact or trying to drum up more unnecessary repairs. Either way, he shouldn't be allowed behind the wheel of any customer vehicle. Never again.

This Petro-Canada is at the northeast corner of Meadowlands and Woodroffe. The prices here are…read morealways lower than the locations along Carling. They are comparable to the ones a bit further east along Merivale. This location is spacious, it's not tight. I like that the pumps are not one in front of the other, like there's only 1 pump per lane, so you never have another car right in front of you. This location has a convenience store attached to it, but I've never been in it as I always pay at the pump.

This is always my go-to spot for gas. The prices are always reasonable (*especially* for being so…read moreclose to downtown!), and this station, for whatever reason, easily accepts my U.S. credit card at the pump, without me having to go inside and wait in line for the cashier (Petro-Canada, I'm looking at you!). It's also right off the freeway, so it's not a hassle and I don't ever feel like I'm going out of my way to find the cheap gas. Other than that, it's pretty much your standard gas station!
