Even though I live in Westwood, it's sometimes easier coming to Norwood for whatever I need. Whether it's a dozen of eggs, a box of baking powder, a pizza, or a greeting card... there are very few options in Westwood Center, and normally everything is cheaper throughout the decent amount of stores on Nahatan Street.... including gas.
Now, I love my local stations in Westwood, but sometimes (or very frequently) are they WAYYYY overpriced. I do visit them often if I'm headed that way, but other times, this is the closest place where I can save BIG time. Now, I'm definitely exaggerating the other gas stations.... it's really not the Westwood stations are overpriced, but with Stop&Shop Gas Points, Shell becomes the cheapest option every time.
This is closest Shell station to my house, and sits on Pleasant Street in Norwood. It's gotten marginally busier ever since the Mobil closed up shop on Nahatan Street, but still is barely ever busy. It actually is located in what I consider the middle of nowhere. It's not visible from the main streets and would do much better if located on Nahatan instead. Then again, lucky for me, it's like my own gas station almost every time.
The employees are always friendly, kind and helpful, and they even provide full serve here! Yes, you can do self if you like, but if you use the far two pumps, those are full serve. Very infrequent to find cheap full serve gas stations around these days..... I wish any of the towns around would add a new "Full Serve Law" like in many other places have out west.
Overall, I really like this gas station and try to use my Stop&Shop points here the most.... they are much better than the "average" Shell station in Walpole. 5 stars for this Shell! read more
