I'm a huge fan of all the people who work here, especially the shorter Hispanic girl who works weekend mornings (sorry don't know her name), Abigail the manager, and my favorite person to see here, Jose. They always put a smile on my face, and the food is reasonably priced. The gas is a little expensive for me, and I prefer Costco or Sam's Club but I'll still come through to get what I need.

I used to absolutely dread coming to this Costco to get gas. It was always a nightmare between the…read morecustomers at the warehouse and the travelers stopping for fuel from the nearby highways. Easily a 20-30 minute ordeal during high times for commuter traffic. I think beginning of last year, they completely remodeled and reopened this Costco gas area. It was given multiple extra pumps, a much better flow for traffic, and the sensors for the pump areas so you know when to pull forward in line. Now when I stop here, I either pull up directly to a pump or maybe wait 5 minutes max. The worst time of day you will still only see a 5 to 10 minute wait. It has been absolutely worthwhile and I will now sometimes go out of my way to fill up here. Thank you for the upgrade, corporate!

Never been a fan of any Arco AM PM store until I visited this one a couple of days ago. Let me…read moretell you, it is the best AM PM store that I have ever patronized. Arco gas stations are my go to spots for filling up my rental cars. Had never been impressed with the inside of any AMPM convenience mart until now. Helps that this convenience store has only been open a couple of months. They've done a fine job of maintaining the cleanliness of the place both inside and outside. Very nice layout and setup of their merchandise. Not cluttered like so many other stores. Service was friendly with a smile too The competition is fortunate that this Arco AM PM store is located on the other side of the overpass. As always, Arco's gas prices are cheaper. They only take cash or debit cards. If you use your debit card, there is a 35 cent charge. Worth it cause of the price difference. I think AM PM's slogan is "too much good stuff". Well, this is the first location that I've been to that lives up to that slogan. Good job and keep it up! Yeah, I am a fan.

The store wasn't busy so I made my way around and picked up what I could remember because I forgot my list. I had one prescription to pick up, which was also no problem. In the meat department the chickens were fresh out of the oven so I grabbed two and picked up some thick pork chops and fresh cod.. I was on a roll I tried calling my wife to see what was on my list but no answer so I did my best. The store looked great. It was packed full of spring merchandise. Lots of plants, palms, flowers, and ground cover. As I made my way up to the front of the store. I couldn't believe the long checkout lines and it was only 10:45 when did they all get here? The hot dog lines were almost out the front door. All the Costco workers were busy, friendly and helpful as usual Great experience today except when I got home I'd forgot to buy my coffee. I'll be back

Continously run in to issues with this Costco and that has been ongoing over the last few years. My…read morebiggest issue about this particular Costco is the front end/register employees and the entry/exit employees. I understand that their interactions are probably some of the more mentally taxing when it comes to customer service, but I have been to many Costco locations and this is the ONLY one I ever seem to leave feeling frustrated with the tone, rigidness, and words exchanged. I will say that the sales floor employees (food samples, deli, and occasionally floaters on the floor or fillers) tend to be pretty nice and on the opposite end of the spectrum, I usually have more pleasant interactions at rosedale Costco on the sales floor vs other locations I rarely remember a sales floor interaction. The gas area used to be very difficult, long lines. They remodeled it last year to accommodate more traffic and put in the sensors. It is consistently a quick and positive experience now. Because of my multiple encounters with negativity at the registers here, I do tend to purposefully go to the Panama Costco where I have never had a single negative interaction with an employee. I definitely recommend that location over this one.

It's a very spacious 7-Eleven and gas/service station!…read more Easy access for pumps and one of the less expensive places to fill up in Bakersfield, especially before hopping on the highway. The inside as well as outside is fairly clean... Service is okay, not the warmest... Possibly due to issues in the past. A lot of people hangout on the side at night until the early morning, but it's mostly well lit in the main areas... So, just be carely. If you're just grabbing gas you won't even need to stop in or venture beyond the pump, just fill up... But like most places cash will save you a $0.10 per gallon. They have their essential Select brand and convenience store favorites you'd expect. Water and air off to the side and Ice out front. No car wash or any extras beyond the above, but it's open 24/7.

I'm not sure if this is because there's a need (there is a lot of transients in the area) or if they have a company account here. Or perhaps it's simply a good location in between both sides of the freeway - either way - you'll almost always see one. On my recent visit, the pumps on one side had only one regular gas. In fact, the buttons had been punched out. The pumps definitely had seen better days and I reluctantly put in as little as I could. You will not find gas to be a good price here.
