    One of many businesses that have a sign on the door indicating that a mask is required. But no one is enforcing it. Spoke with an employee about it and he said, he can't do anything about it. He also was not wearing a mask. He wouldn't even ask people to wear one that walked in as we were speaking. And this is why America's covid rates won't decrease.

    Last gas on Woodward til the river... or first gas on Woodward coming up from downtown. The…read morelocation of this Shell guarantees a steady stream of business and the convenience of this spot at Forest and Woodward has had me stopping here for many years. This gas station predates who knows how many businesses in the vicinity... and yet I'm the first to review it on Yelp and had to create a listing. Likely cause it's nothing special and the only memorable thing about it is if someone is acting the fool here. People hustling for money, drunks being obnoxious... sometimes the location here isn't worth the annoyance of stopping. The Marathon a bit to the north on Woodward, past the museums and DPL is somewhat more chill and has a much better convenience store selection. Shell is tiny and bare bones, packed to the gills with junk food, junk food and cancer sticks behind the glass. Nothing healthy at all beyond water and maaaybe bananas. It's usually dirty and messy in there, too. All kinds of stickiness around the cheap ass gas station cappuccino machine. You might get stuck waiting for people playing the lottery there, though. Thank goodness there's no lottery at this Shell. The line would be halfway through the parking lot with even more bs going on. I will pull in here to gas up if I'm on E but generally avoid this Shell especially on weekend nights and anytime it's jammed up which is often.

    I want to start by saying I am a resident of Ferndale, a member of the community and I actually…read morelive on the same street as this Mobile Gas Station. I was headed out and realized I was having car trouble. I sputtered in this gas station and my car broke down. I thought maybe it was Gas so I paid for a few gallons but that wasn't the issue. Two gentlemen helped me park in a parking spot and suggested it may be the fuel pump. I immediately used my AAA service to request a tow truck. I entered the gas station and explained my situation and asked if it was ok to leave my car while I wait. I spoke with the owner who said yes and told me to leave my number. I was on my way to pick up my daughter from daycare so I got a ride and went to pick her up. The store attendant, SHAAD, proceeds to call me every 15 minutes threating to have my car towed or call the police on me if I do not remove my vehicle. I returned and explained that AAA was on their way and there was nothing I could do at the moment. I reminded him I am a member of the community and I live right down the street and he repeated "I don't give a fuck if your my neighbor" and proceeds to call the police on me. The cops show up and I explain the situation and they agree, if the tow truck is on the way, why is it a big deal. I was asked to leave the store, which I did and wait outside. I will say, the store owner called me back to apologize for SHAAD's behavior. I believe in community building and this attendant clearly only cares about the patrons of his store when there is something in it for him, otherwise, in his words "he doesn't give a fuck" Sometimes people just need a bit of help and a kind person and SHAAD was none of that. I will never return to this gas station and I encourage Ferndale Community Members to spend their money somewhere who is invested in the community.

    I don't usually bother reviewing gas stations. Petroleum is driving us headlong into a climate…read moreapocalypse but it's damn near impossible to live in the United States in 2022 without being dependent on it. So why five stars for this Mobil? Well, the location is convenient and they have a cool little Leaning Tower of Pisa painted on this stubby little pillar getting its lean on. I feel like it's the last remnant of an old canopy that got demolished? I don't know. But the real reason this basically basic Mobil gets the five star red carpet is free air! It seemed too good to be true so I actually went back inside to ask if it wasn't out of order while I was waiting for my tank to fill up with planet poison. Lo and behold, it's free and it works! It's sad that's all it takes for me to shower stars on a gas station the way Chef Salt Bae showers salt on a plate of food in a probably already sadly dated meme but there you have it. The Valero near my parents condo is a whopping two dollars for the air machine. And, as another reviewer has noted, this here Mobil has a nice industrial strength air machine, too. So that's the skinny here. It's been awhile since I've written a review here and the thing that brought me back was... free air.
