This was my go-to place for filling gas for the first 5 years of my time in the bay area. Loved the fact that all stations here were operational all the time. read more

Stopped at this station to get some better gasoline in my truck. The cheapo Exxon gas wasn't worth saving a few bucks. So at 790 El Camino Real, we find a modern Shell station, complete with foodmart and car wash. Based upon the past reviews, it looks like everyone should avoid the car wash. Nice spacious islands and well lit. Very spacious because no one was there at the time. Prices are a bit higher than average. But the station is near two major roads out of town.....Hwy 85 and Hwy 237. There's also a medical facility across the street. Tip: if you want your vehicle to look nice for a long time, never use a mechanical car wash. read more

My girlfriend was driving me back to SJ and we needed gas. We had just had dinner nearby, so stopped by this Shell on the way to the freeway on Friday, June 7th around 9:45pm. Prices per gallon that day were: Regular: $3.899 Plus: $4.099 V-Power: $4.199 With a car wash, prices were $0.20 less per gallon. But who wants to get a car wash at 10pm at night? Or come back to get one?! The station itself was fine. Well lit and it felt safe at that time of night. I fine gas station if you're on your way to back to 101. read more

This is a great place in many ways and has been my routine go to for gas. The gas pump interface allows you to purchase car wash in exchange for 20cent discount per gallon. It however not print the receipt for car wash, and only reports on the display that you are charged for gas only. If you are unsuspecting and in a hurry, you might drive off as you may think somehow your request for car wash did not go through (since you see that your are only charged for the gas). This happened many times to me. This time though, I went in and asked for the receipt. To my surprise it did show the that I was charged! $15 extra for the wash I chose. When I complained to the staff manager Diana, she was hesitant to even listen and register a complaint. When asked for a phone number to report a complaint, asked me to go lookup online. When asked for a phone number gave me a defunct number. read more

The lady working the register was so so polite and helpful. She was quick to help me ring up my purchase so I can get back to the bus stop in front to make sure I get the bus before it leaves. Keep up the great work read more

Shell - Time for some yummy odwalla - Gas Stations Near Me - Mountain View, California

Their gas is better quality than many others around, but it makes sense because they also tend to be slightly more expensive. This isn't a bigger location, but the storefront carries a decent selection of products for sale. read more

Last night I bought their ultimate carwash as I filled my tank. The receipt shows it costs only $11.00 but DON'T BUY IT! The photo I uploaded shows scratches to the trunk lid from the mechanical wipers! I called the station and an apathetic attendant just told me the manager left and to look up a general number to complain later. read more

Shell - The "Ultimate Carwash" scratched my car! Don't use it - Gas Stations Near Me - Mountain View, California

Now open for food and gas and car wash. but listed as https://www.yelp.com/biz/loop-neighborhood-mountain-view Loop Convenience Store (790 E El Camino Real) Request for a Planned Community Permit to reconstruct the existing gas station and car wash and to add a new 2,940 square foot convenience store. read more

Be careful when going here. Although a convenient location, they have now (TWICE) attempted to deceive my family on car wash fees. 1st time we were overcharged by $90! Maybe an accident, but now a second "mistake" was made by double charging me for one car wash and attempting to hide a my change within the receipts. Use them if you like, but I highly recommend watching your money. Buyer beware. read more

Just had to say that I am very grateful for how nice the register person was tonight. She informed me quite happily that for another 50 cents I could get a second Rockstar.... you don't usually see that. Can you tell I drank one? Prices? dunno, I was running out and have to buy premium anyway. Bathrooms? didn't check. Cleanliness - yes. read more

I needed a car wash for a lower car. It wasn't too crowded on a Saturday so I thought, why not? My car came out with a flat. I had to replace it. $9 car wash, never again. read more

The price of their "cheap" car wash is $5.00 I don't like the TV commercials on top of the pumps. read more

This gas station. Open 24 hour .their car wash Servic is very good if you buy gas they reduce car wash price . Rest room always clean .cashier are friendly . I mostly fill up gas in my car from this station . read more

1 for the car wash. Writing this review because it is the 3rd time it happens: First 2, i bought ultimate wash and i got shorter washes with no undercarriage wash. I talked to the attendant and she told me nobody had complained before. I went today again, and the dryer stopped when my headlights reached the dryer. I am not going back again. read more

This is my neighborhood shell and I have been going here for years. The cashiers are always very friendly, helpful and hard working at this location. I also appreciate that they always kick in the air machine so I can pump up my bike tires from time to time. I also like that fact that this station has a drive thru carwash. 1 Star--friendly cashiers 1 Star--helpful, hardworking cashiers 1 Star--drive thru carwash 1 Star--air for pumping up my bicycle tires read more

This has got to be one of the illest gas stations of all time. 12 pumps!!! Paper towels FO FREE. High quality windo washers. Automatic car washer. Illmatic!!! Also next to sleep train in case you get tired. read more

this is my neighborhood gas station. relatively new and prices are reasonable. i like the tv commercials and show fragments they show above the pumps (good distraction). only problem i have is that sometimes the gas pump won't stay pumping when i set the little trigger that keeps the gas pump going... i don't know if this is an issue with my car, but i don't seem to have this problem at any of the other gas stations i frequent. maybe something is different about the pressure thresholds at these pumps. read more

Horrible place. There is a woman here who will make sure you only spend 1 second in the washing tall. She's rude, standing there yelling at you to go out. Never coming back read more

Do not use their car wash!!! Paid $8.00 and got a half ass car wash. When I drove out my car was completely wet, and there was still soap on the body of my car. This is absurd and a rip off!!! read more

Either give me free gas if you're going to assault customers with loud, obnoxious commercials or let me pay $5 a gallon to pump my petrol in peace. read more

The attendants working the place around 1 pm on a Saturday were incredibly rude. I took a vehicle over there that had been sitting for a while, so the battery was weak. At the station, it wouldn't start back up. I had a battery booster, but it was weak from the first start up earlier. It didn't have enough power to start the vehicle again. So I asked the attendant if they had a booster (lots of stations, especially ones with garages, keep one available for customers). They didn't. So I asked if I could plug mine into the wall for a couple minutes to charge. And they started yelling at me to buy jumper cables. They refused to help at all, and were rude about it. read more

TVs that blare commercials at me while I am filling up my car = I will never go to this gas station again. Even the one near me wised up and turned the damn things off. read more

The car wash at this place is terrible. I took a friend's car here as a thank you for letting me borrow it, and when I got back home and parked it, there was a huge line of dirt up the back of the car that wasn't even touched by the brushes. Like, a foot wide swath of unwashed car. What? read more

Decent place and easy access.

Always come here for gas. One of the cheapest places to get gas from here to Palo Alto. Staff is friendly as station is clean. Easily accessible. read more

Do not use the car wash if you value your paint! The brushes are so strong and so rough that it scratched through the paint of my Volvo in several spots, particularly on the hood, while leaving other areas completely dirty. To add insult to injury, the drying phase barely dries at all and the whole thing is over in a blink of an eye. I'm mad at myself that I didn't notice the damage right after it happened or I would have complained. Now I have to spot reseal my paint in a couple of places because they look like rust magnets. read more

8$ for a "the works" can't beat it. Only takes about 5 min and does a 5star job. I used to go to all the hand wash places and could never find one I was consistently happy with. This one is great every time. read more

Paid for the air and machine was not working , attended refused to give money back . Very disappointed.

Location is right by the house so it is ocnveinent, staff is always friendly and has a smile. Only negative is that the price is a little higher than the other gas stations down the block. read more

Among the cheapest shells in south bay. Who cares for the commercials and it plays news and weather too at times. If nothing great nothing as annoying either given I save some bucks. Sometimes I even get coupons at home, so gets even better. read more

Gas here is cheap for the neighborhood and its really clean. They sell super lotto! I would agree that the car wash sucks but I would never use a car wash at a gas station. Go to Lozano's down the street. read more
