This is a fairly good petrol station in the heart of Didsbury Village, it is a Shell garage with a…read moreLondis store, which features a Costa Express coffee machine. The petrol prices were average, and the attached store had a small selection of essentials, the price was much higher than Co-Op which is just down the road, but with slightly longer opening hours and being more accessible to motorists, you sadly have to expect this premium. The stock of essentials was quite good, especially for dairy products as well as snacks and to-go beverages. It was relatively clean. 4* - A good petrol station, I would say to go to the Co-Op if you can to save some money and of course they have a larger store so more choice, but this isn't a bad alternative.

This BP is a bargain if you want fuel while you're travelling up or down the M6. It's about 2 miles…read morefrom junction 16 of the M6, on the A500 which is easily signposted and not usually busy. The fuel is about 6-7p a litre cheaper than the motorway service stations. It sells both regular and premium petrol and diesel. Food and drink selections are good and there is an HSBC cash machine as well.

I use this garage and petrol station quite a lot when zooming between Stockport and Didsbury. It's…read moreusually pretty easy to drive in to and pretty easy to leave with really wide entrances and exit's for your car. Great to see the price of fuel has come down to below a £1 now but it should really be dropping a lot lower given the price of a barrel of oil. Clearly someone is making a lot of money in the refinery/petrol station distribution business! Onsite there's a shop selling all the usual snacks and drinks, check it out if you need fuel. Stop off at Fosters across the road if you need a quick fish and chips fix!

I often stop here for petrol when I'm out and about!…read more Situated just around the corner from the main supermarket, they have 16 pumps meaning they can get through a serious number of cars in one go - although there's still loads of them parking up and queueing to get in (probably because they're the first main station to drop petrol below a £1 - although it should still be much lower given the huge price drop in oil) You can pay at the pump like I do and they have a kiosk selling papers, snacks and the like.

Asda West Didsbury Express Petrol is on Princess Rd in West Didsbury, it features a petrol station…read moreand convenience store. It also has 24-7 opening, although I'm not sure if they close off the store area in the evening, as I have only ever visited during daytime hours. The store is small but has a reasonable selection of prices, for a gas station, the prices are also reasonable, and I remember the Cravendale milk being cheaper than a regular ASDA store. Prices are competitive compared to similar businesses, and the Cravendale being cheaper was not something which was widespread across the store. Fuel prices remain reasonable, although there are places within a couple of miles that are cheaper including larger ASDA stores and Costco. Still, the latter is exclusive to Costco members. The forecourt and store area are clean, and the service was a little impersonal but it was quick, ensuring I could get in and out quickly. 4* - The location is good, the convenience store is good and prices are reasonably competitive. It's also clean and that means a lot.

Well priced BP fuel on the A50, so very useful if you're making the crossover from the m6 to m1…read more It's only available eastbound, so if you're going the other way you'd have to get off at the next junction and turn round. In North Staffs it's one of the two stations offering the cheapest BP fuel. Downsides, it can be near impossible to get out of. Between the people not doing the speed limit and those who go tearing past at 80 it's a nightmare. I've waited about 5 minutes before to get out of here and I'm not a cautious driver.

Recommended.

The only pit falls are they only accept cash no cards, and when you are pulling back out onto the road you have to be fast if you want to go accross the road you could be stuck there a while whilst you wait for a gap in the traffic but it is well worth it for cheaper diesel. Theres a little hut in the middle and you open the door and pass your cash over to an asistant. The staff are always freindly and polite. It can be hard to know when your going to see it but it is opposite firth rixons a big factory so just look out for it.

I had trialled Home Delivery with them once before and one smashed-vinegar-bottle-covering-my-shopping later put me off trying that again. Several months down the line and I thought I'd try the C&C service instead. After the usual online shopping, you choose a collection slot (typically two hour periods) and drive to the petrol station, parking in one of the spaces over to the left hand side. The set-up is pretty novel, there are several large chiller/freezer units outside the forecourt shop which contain customers' shopping in trays. You pop into the shop, confirm your name and one of the employees accompanies you to your unit (as this was my first visit, I was told that they usually give customers the unit's key and you're left to your own devices). I was surprised that there wasn't more of a check on whether you were the legitimate customer or not... The unit is opened and you remove the packing trays from the shelves to get at your shopping. For those with an 'eco' mindset, be prepared for a ridiculous number of carrier bags. There was one with a solitary box of Cook's Matches I'd ordered, another with three bananas. Not pleased about that at all. In fact it's probably that which will dissuade me from shopping this way again. That being said, the employee who showed me the ropes was thoroughly helpful (she was actually on her meal break but still came to assist me). Tip: If you can, choose a collection slot before it's dark as it's difficult to make sure that everything has been delivered and that you're happy with any substitutions they've made.
