This is another one of those awkward corner gas stations that is super convenient, but only if you…read moreare going in the right direction. It's neighboured by a Dymon storage facility and a giant church, and it's on one of the most busy intersection corners in the South-West of Ottawa, off roads that could certainly use some attention (so bumpy getting in and out). Once you are in the lot, I must admit, this location was planned a lot more efficiently than many others. The lot is large making it easier to navigate (and avoid other drivers) and even thought there is a lot going on in that area, once you are in, it's quite smooth sailing. Again, be careful getting back out on to the roads - there are a lot of merge lanes in this area, which means there are quite a few drivers rushing to beat the line before the lane ends so they are driving a little faster than they potentially should be.

I have never encountered any lineups or pump problems, and this is probably the one gas station in the city that I've been to where I can say that. Their prices are not the cheapest in the city, but they are reasonable and it's conveniently located. It's a great station to stop in on the way to work without working about a long wait or lineup.

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 ended up filling up, and I'm so glad I did!! It's a tiny gas station, with only 4 pumps (if I remember correctly), but it's on a corner, with entrances/ exits from both streets. I paid at the pump; so easy! It was way easier to fill up and get going than it was to get here in the first place, which took about half an hour instead of 10 minutes, due to the volume of traffic at rush hour, and the construction. This was a good visit, and I'd go back. Thanks to Gas Buddy app for pointing this site out!

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.

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!

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.
