A big shout out to Miguel & the staff!! Miguel is consistently pleasant, professional, & helpful. He's always willing to assist with the regular gas purchases. I'm very glad to have a nearby professional gas station to go to. Kindly acknowledge this staff for the outstanding Shell employees that they are. read more

It's off the main street near a post office and has a car wash that goes fairly quickly even when lines seem long.

Good location. The prices are higher, but the quality of the gas is much better. Location is very convenient located between Beverly Hills and Santa Monica. Clean and well maintained with a large convenience store. read more

Best night time drive through car wash on the Westside. I tried the few that are available and this Shell stands out.

This Shell location has the best prices on Santa Monica Blvd between Santa Monica and Sawtelle. There are many gas stations on this bustling road, but this location is consistently at least 20 cents cheaper than the rest and is super clean. More ways to save: If you add a car wash here, save 10 cents/gallon. If you pay cash, save 10 cents/gallon. If you sign up for their Fuel Rewards, save 5 cents/gallon every time you fill up. And if you have TMobile, add the code from TMobile Tuesdays for an additional 5 cents/gallon. #themoreyouknow Because of the great prices, it can get busy here. However, I haven't ever had to wait...somehow I always end up snagging the last open spot. They have a car wash, vacuums, air for tires, a convenience store (with liquor) and they're open 24 hours! read more

Affordable gas prices compared to Hollywood, the staff were in a good mood too, very clean store.

This is a SOLID drive thru car wash, people. Here we go: -An attendant is ALWAYS there to help guide you in. -Put your car in neutral. -The attendant tapes down any windshield wipers. -And the floor system slowly guides your car through. -When you're done, put your car in drive and leave away with a clean car. I'll support this every time. read more

I got the most expensive car wash & it scratched by passenger doors at the same place on both sides.

WORST CAR WASH EVER! It used to wash my car well but today I left the car wash very disappointed. There were many areas that were complexity overlooked and my car did not come out clean as it use to! read more

Great services, quick services and very clean on the inside and outside. Prices are great for the shells of this location. I had the pleasure to work with Karen, she's awesome. She multi task with no problem! She's quick with her hands to get customers in and out. read more

Shell Gas Station - SHELL OIL " WASH RUN " DRIVE THEU CARWASH info as of 9-3-24 - Gas Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This review is for their service in exchanging a propane tank. No other gas stations had any in stock an they weren't able to give me an ETA on when new stock would be available. Upon calling this shell station, the attendant was friendly and mentioned that she would hold one for me. Sure enough, I was able to pick one up. Thanks for the quick and helpful service! read more

Shell Gas Station - Car Wash - Gas Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Ughhh. No joke, all the reviews about the terrible car wash here are spot on... it barely got my car clean. Mostly just washed the dust off, but I just came down the 5 south! Bug guts are baked in! Sure, the gas is cheap. It's a convenient location. I'm sure it has other redeeming qualities. Just not a good car wash. read more

I go to this Shell once a day at least. Everyone that works here is amazing. In terms of volume of traffic and weird bs, they are aways aware, patient, and working in the best interests of professionalism, no drama, and safety for everyone. This is not an easy job running a Shell with the amount of random problems this establishment deals with constantly. The employees and managers are the best that exist, and ive never seen the hint of a rattle, even under stress. I cant say much more than there are not enough stars possible to give as a long time customer. 3 thousand stars. Keep up the good work my friends! You are appreciated. Jason read more

I refueled for $ 60, but $91 was withdrawn from the card. When I asked why it happened? They told me to return the money to my card. As a result, they never returned it. read more

I really don't know what happened I think I'm a nice person but the guy seemed so annoyed with me, I buy gas here all the time but the alarm came on in my car that I had a flat tire so I pulled it in and asked him if he could put the air on for me. I put air in my tire and then went in to buy a coffee and a couple other things and they charged me double for two items I don't know what happened read more

THIS REVIEW IS FOR CAR WASH horrible it didn't wash my car at all It honestly looked exactly the same as it did before the "car wash" It's more like a car rinse with no water pressure so the results are the same as before you drove in. read more

I would NOT recommend this car wash it destroyed our car. We went in and came out with all these yellow damages . The car is embedded with yellow stains now! We tried to get a manager Danny to fix the situation. He didn't care ! He wouldn't review the footage and denied the damages. DO NOT GO HERE!!!! Unless you want your car to become damaged- and I will be pursuing this further . They made no attempts to remedy the situation read more

the woman who works night shift consistently denies me service and acts as if I'm ignorant on her job.

Terrible car wash with even worse customer service. Dryers don't work well and water does not dry spot free. Employees would not allow me to go through again after the wash did not take a lot of light dirt off my car and on a separate occasion I called to ask if I could go through because it rained the day after I got my car wash and they don't offer rain protection. I won't be going back. read more

Good drive through car wash. I can't speak to the concerns about the car wash messing up a cars paint job, because simply speaking my car is old enough that I'm not too worried about the paint. For my purposes though, this car wash was great! I thought it was well priced too. And I appreciated the attendant who was there to help me drive my car onto the car wash tracks. read more

This Shell station made me super happy today! I got a coupon in the mail to save $5 on a car wash, when you purchase 10 gallons of gas or more. So I let my teeny 12-ish-gallon Miata gas tank get super low, so I needed more than 10 gallons - and went to use my coupon. After I gave the cashier the coupon, I went to pump my gas and noticed that I could save $.10/gallon at the pump by swiping my Ralphs rewards card! So I paid $3.19/gal for $3.29/gal gas and then got the $9 car wash for $4. If my bargain-rabid mom weren't so hell bent on washing her own car for FREE, she'd love my discounts today! Maybe I'll just tell her about the gas dealie.... : P read more

Shell Gas Station - Gas Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I don't usually review gas stations and this one is fair in regards to getting gas, but what makes this one exceptional is the drive through car wash. If you're like most people living in that congested area you don't have a driveway/garage where you can manually wash your car. Unless you have a very expensive car you also don't want to be spending tons of money every month or so to wax/get it washed. Solution, this Shell's drive through wash. Love it because it is conveniently located on Santa Monica Blvd and near the 405N, and for the money, the wash is just as good as a car wash across the street from it at Blue wave car wash. Pros: Good price fast (when not crowded) convenient Cons: Its not really a secret so on weekends and prime times it is pretty crowded. read more

On Feb 26, 2024, I went buy snacks as usual and let me add that this has been my snack stop for 4 years now. I purchased Pringles and Hi chew candy on this day. Once I made it to my car I opened my Pringles and for the first time they had a funny taste meaning to me they did not taste fresh to me. So I drove back to exchange them. Miguel is WONDERFUL BY THE WAY. He has been my cashier most of the time. However, Kimberly took the Pringles that I placed on the counter to return put them behind her register and started eating them she said "they taste fine to me" I said well not to me and she instigates an back and forward with me which was unprofessional, disrespectful, and she must have been hungry to eat my Pringles. As I went to exchange my Pringles for something different she kept talk and I yelled STOP TALKING TO ME. She continued so I asked for my money back ands asked Miguel to provide me with the manager contact information. On February 28, 2024, I got a call from Feinanda Ocampo, she was very dismissive saying I talked to Kimberly and Miguel who was Kimberly witness, she she apologized and said thank you. I could hear in her voice she had no regard to the issue of it being company policy Not To Eat my Pringles. So no action was taken. Kimberly was not suspended or reprimanded for behaving bad toward a paying customer. Therefore, I will no longer return to spend money toward Kimberly check ever again. Irrigated me to the 1000 degree with her instigating an argument with a paying customer. read more

Got a sweet lil car wash here and the guy running it was so fun and kind. Helped get extra mess off my car before I went through the car wash itself! read more

Here's the thing...I'm on a 12 mile run in the heat and really want to cool off so I decide to stop here and pick up something to drink, preferably a G2 or a Vitamin Water Zero. And voilia! This Shell Food Mart has a huge poster in the window advertising 2 Gatorades for $3 and the photo is of one Gatorade and one G2. So I go inside and look around, they don't have G2...or Vitamin Water Zero. Just the fully loaded ones (Gatorade and Vitamin Water). Then I remembered...I stopped here a few weeks ago on another run and they didn't have those drinks then either. So sure I'm hot, sweaty and now irritated that I stopped mid run for this so I decided to say something. The two employees had no idea what I was talking about so I had to keep pointing at the signs (which were everywhere both inside and outside of the store btw) and they just kind of shrugged about it. I told them they should take the posters down since it's false advertising but I highly doubt they will do so nor start ordering the G2 beverage to actually stand behind what they are advertising. I wound up buying a fully loaded Vitamin Water and succombed to drinking the extra calories because I was just that dehydrated. In any event, that was my second time trying them out so I will not be going back there. You know the saying -- first time, shame on you....second time, shame on me. No thanks. read more

There is not a lot that is super special about this gas station but they do not add ten more cents a gallon like the mobile 250 yards away and they have a pretty good size lot so my truck fits moe easily when it's busy here. Also they have a quick car wash for those days that I don't have 45 minutes to spend at a full service wash. Ok funny moment. As I was writing this the shell attendant came out and looked at the pump and said that the prices were going up today and he wanted to make sure that everyone in the lit right now got the cheaper price. True story lol. That's why I come here. Ps read more

Shell Gas Station - Easy to enter and easy to park. - Gas Stations Near Me - Los Angeles, California

There is always a line, and I swear all the most brain dead humans come here and have no idea what they are doing. Only come here and be ready to wait and watch these idiots try to just drive into a self explanatory car wash. Besides that, it's a good quick wash till you have time for a real wash. It's really just good enough. But be prepared to witness the dumbest people you have ever seen. :) read more

This gas station is incredible! I'm a repeat customer. The facility is always clean, and staff is a cut above with their professionalism.

Best hydrogen station in Los Angeles. When I am crusing around in my zero emissions FCX (seriously! check my pics before flaming this post!) I stop here for H2. Pin number access, connect the nozzle, takes a couple minutes, and good for another couple hundred miles. Contrary to what others have written here, this hydrogen station is in heavy use, demonstrating viable, convenient, non petroleum, non smog forming, non global warming making transportation. Shell pays Los Angeles Department of Water and Power for wind power used to split the hydrogen from the water at this station for true clean transportation. So for all the yapping there is going on out there, it's nice to see see a company actually doing something. Congratulations Shell! read more

Really terrible experience, went for a carwash at 11:00 pm since the pump screen offered and when going in the carwash it doesn't work, then went with the clerk who was upset since the "system" was off at 10:00pm (Is no even a single sign about schedule, no even a cone closing the access to the carwash way, he admonish us ( we were two different costumers) that we need to stop right at red or he can not help us and not devolution will happen. Seriously bad attitude read more

I washed my car here for the second time on Friday. The first time the wait was a bit long and as I was driving out of the car wash, when the air vents are supposed to dry your car as you slowing roll out, the air cut off after about 5 seconds. I suspected it was because the car behind me entered the wash right away which must trigger the cycle to start from the beginning. I guess it can't accommodate 2 cars at once using 2 different stages of the wash. I remember leaving feeling really annoyed. This Friday I went again on my lunch break, which is the only reason I come here because it's close to work. There was about 5 or 6 cars in front of me and I decided to time it because of the last wait experience. I pulled up to the line at 12:35pm and it took 30 minutes before I was entering the wash machine! That's insane. Yes, I realize I came at lunch time but 30 minutes is extremely inefficient for the amount of cars that were waiting, especially considering the minimal wash service being provided. Luckily this time I received the air at the end before rushing back to work. But after I got out of the car I noticed that it wasn't even clean. I wish there was a Chevron bubble machine in West LA where, for the same price, they manually rinse and scrub your car before you enter the wash, which is a consecutive set of equipment that you glide through while on rails, as opposed to a clunky all-in-one contraption that moves back and forth while your car sits in park as they do here. On top of that I have never waited more than 10-15 minutes. And after reading other reviews about scratches it's definitely not worth the risk to come here. read more

Both times I've come here. It's supposed to be 24/7. I'm here now and have been waiting for 5 mins. I need help with gas and to turn air on for tires? I'm so confused if this is 24/7 station, why is this the second time this week that I come here and lights are all on inside store, but doors are locked. I waited over 30 minutes last time for him to show back up again read more

Food Mart is average. Small with the basic chips, nuts, drinks. Some fresh fruit and coffee machines. Service was kind of sub par. My friend tried to get a drink and the young girl didnt give her the change at first and kept talking to the girl behind her in Spanish. My friend was weirded out by not getting change and asked "Wait, how much was my drink again?" No response. Just ignored her and continued to speak in Spanish and tap around and handed over the change without a word or eye contact, really. The Car Wash - Sometimes it gets super packed on the weekends!!! It gets the job done for $7. If you want a receipt it doesnt print it out and tells you to go inside -_- Machine seems a bit older and not very clear instructions as Ive seen at other gas stations that would make it more efficient. read more

There's nothing wrong with the gas station itself but when a cashier short changes you when you purchase one item is not a good look. And the guy knew exactly what he did when I asked "wait how much was this?" And recounted the change. read more

11574 Santa Monica Blvd Shell .My young daughter had a flat tire at 10 pm and asked if she could leave it there until the next morning. She was already extremely upset. The man working was so mean and said she couldn't leave it overnight! .She was extremely distraught and this man made matters so much worse! Where has human compassion gone and especially late at night for a young woman!! I later found out she was so upset she dangerously drove it home! Shame on you Shell! I will never patronize this station ever again and hood you don't either!!!! May 6,2022 read more
