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!

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.

If you're in a large vehicle it might not be wise to try to pull into this pump unless you want to end up being a viral youtube star.

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.

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)

I was in the Hunt Club area where I stayed the last time I was in Ottawa. I needed a Circle K and…read moredid a search. It led me to this store. This Circle K is a part of an Esso gas station. The station also has a touchless gas station, an air pump, and a vacuum. I parked by the car wash. There were a few spots. I then walked in. Looks are deceiving. I thought that this Circle K would be large. On the contrary, it's small, with as much merchandise packed in as possible. If you are a Tim Hortons fan, you have a lot of coffee flavour choices here. You see coffee in your face when you walk in. Next to it is a fridge with frozen treats. I was here to redeem some coupons. The problem? Nothing that I wanted to redeem was available at this store. There weren't any Froster or Polar Pop machines. There were no Joker energy drinks. AriZona drinks were non-existent. I settled for getting a Mountain Dew in purple thunder. It wasn't a part of the plan. I got a coupon that's available to any customer online. I got a female staffer who was busy counting her change. She was nearly done. I told her to take her time. She scanned my drink, and then my digital coupon. I also scanned my PC Optimum and paid for my $1.13 drink with a debit card. Done! I wished her a great day. She reciprocated. I left with my cold drink. Although disappointed with the beverage selections, customer service is great. My drink was also surprisingly yummy. I expected a huge sugar rush, but it didn't happen. This store is great if you are looking for coffee or a generic pop flavour. If you need something specific, chances are that you won't find it here. (222)

I purchased fuel at the Petro Canada station at 390 Parkdale Avenue in Ottawa on December 28, 2023…read more Using my credit card, I authorized a fuel purchase of $50.00. The total amount of fuel that my car could accommodate was $46.26. I asked the attendant how the difference would be adjusted and was told that my credit card would be refunded the difference between the authorized and actual amounts. Instead, both the $50.00 authorization and the $46.26 purchase were applied to my credit card. This place is unethical and I must now wait for them to fix it. Don't go there. They cheat.

I read this book this summer - it was one of those tiny, feel-good, advice, chicken soup kind of…read moredeals and one of the pieces of advice it offered was to get your gas from your local, independent gas station/service centre. The reason given was that when your car breaks down or fails to start one snowy morning, your local mechanic who knows you is more likely to come and help you that some stranger from the big corporate gas station/convenience store. So, when I moved to Ottawa and settled in this area, I chose Riverside Service Centre as the independent place I would frequent. And, it has paid off. What personalized service I get now that I have been there a few times. Even when there are times when the gas is more expensive, I still shop there to build the bridges. I hope I never have to call on them, but at least they know my name and my face when and if I ever do need them!

Ever since it's been turned over to New Management the store has gone to crap . Especially the young guy who works in the morning sometimes at night is rude disrespectful has a poor attitude threatens to call the police anytime he doesn't like what you have to say and he's extremely homophobic when it comes to the trans community I've watched him laugh and mock trans people in the store . It has been addressed to the new owner several times but to be quite honest with you it seems like he doesn't even understand what you're saying to him because he will just laugh and say okay okay and walk away the individual seems to still be working there after several complaints against him about being homophobic and disrespectful to the trans community. The health department needs to be called because the food is disgusting do not eat the hot dogs pastries or the muffins for 3 days there was hundreds of fruit flies crawling all over them and they were still selling them to the public instead of removing them and cleaning out the cabinet they allowed it to sit in there for three more days. Overall some of the staff and the management have a poor attitude and with all that time setting up the pastry section and the pizza section in the hot dog section there hasn't once been Pizza the hot dogs are disgusting and the pastries have fruit flies crawling all over them what a waste of time and it's unfortunate that the old owner took such Pride in his customers and the store to be turned over to someone who could care less
