    I went here a few times in my van and the evening worker was very nice, friendly and talked to me about my van. I got the keys for the bathroom and wow! It was actually clean!!! Looked like new wall board was installed recently and the place looked and smells clean. Very impressed when a gas station can keep their outdoor restroom clean like that! I'll definitely use this station again. Seeing that I travel in my van, I can tell you this is one of the nicer 24 hour gas stations.

    This tiny but efficient station is great. It's busy but for a reason - the gas prices are are a bit lower than some of the neighboring stations. Because it's a corner lot, adjacent to BevMo, it's basically a gas and go kind of place. There is however a little market as well. You can get a wide variety of beverages and standard gas station items. The employees are nice enough. Tip: They offer a discount for paying in cash.

    Older but decent gas station. I live about a mile from here and this is one of my go-tos when I'm in need of a quick exterior car wash. My apartment building does not feature off-street parking/a place to wash my own vehicle, so I occasionally like to treat myself to one of these drive-thru car baths. This station is located on a busy corner of uptown Santa Barbara, across from a large park and within close proximity of the freeway. It's in a sketchier section of town lined with panhandlers, though the affluent residential neighborhood directly behind is a complete 180 from the main road. I have been asked for spare change when filling up here. I suppose it just comes with the territory. There is also a large self-serve vacuum area and a drive-thru car wash. The car wash can form a bit of a line during peak hours but I've never seen it as an issue. Like most other drive-thru washes, there are three options to select from. The selections range from $11 to $15, but none of them offer an air dryer. The customer drives out with a soaking wet vehicle. I usually pull up to a pump and use their squeegee to rid my windshield of water beads. A minor inconvenience but not a big deal. Though there are better options locally, I will continue to give this station my business.

    Worst service ever. Clerk was crying because her cat died, then she asked to see ID's of everyone in the car (4 people) in order to sell 1 person cigarettes. Was rude and dishonest about the stores policy, said that she has option to refuse service to anyone. We decided not to get everyone out of the car with ID's because it's ridiculous and just left. Clerk looks and sounds disturbed, will never visit here again.

    Their car wash card reader doesn't work. Very inconvenient and unnecessary. Fix the payment issue on your machines.

    This is a great shell and the employees are pretty chill and I've always had a good experience going.

    Terrible car wash. Car is left soaking wet afterwards. Pricey too. Save your money and go to educated car wash instead.

    I am writing to report a very upsetting experience that happened on Thursday, February 12, at…read morearound 11:00 AM at your Mobile gas station. My wife is pregnant and urgently needed to use the restroom. The cashier on duty refused to allow her to use it. Because of this, my wife had to leave the store quickly and unfortunately fell outside in the street. This situation was extremely distressing and could have resulted in a serious injury. Denying restroom access to a pregnant woman in urgent need shows a lack of basic compassion and customer care. I am very disappointed with how this was handled and hope you will address this matter seriously to prevent something like this from happening to someone else in the future. I look forward to your response.

    I stopped at this gas station to use the restroom and grab a snack after a long trip. As I walked…read moretowards the restroom a female customer had received the key from an employee and was opening the restroom door. I noticed the sign on the door said "out of order". As I was waiting to use the restroom an employee came out and stated the restrooms were for customers only. I told him I was going to go into the store after I used the restroom. He was very rude and demanded I buy something first. I told him I would come in after I used the restroom and he eventually walked away. I used the perfectly functioning restroom, that was not "out of order" and bought a drink before leaving. I will never stop at this Mobile gas station. They are rude and in violation of California law. 13651 (b)(1) b&p On and after January 1, 1990, every service station in this state located within 660 feet of an accessible right-of-way of an interstate or primary highway, as defined in Sections 5215 and 5220, shall provide, during business hours public restrooms for use by its customers. Service stations shall not charge customers separately for the use of restroom facilities.

    Gimmicks and horrible customer service. I was getting gas and it asked if I wanted a car wash ,…read moresure . After paying for my gas I'm not seeing where the car wash is so I go inside. The heavy set woman Sandra was initially pleasant. I asked where the car wash was because I didn't see it, then I realize she is saying down the street . I then ask to either get my money back or to add on vacuuming. Sandra says she can't do that and tells me I got a deal for the gas since but, she says it in an accusatory fashion like I tried to do some kind of sneaky maneuver. I didn't see anything about getting a deal on gas by purchasing a car wash from a car wash place way down the street, so then as I'm still up at the counter she stops talking with me and starts doing business with people in line very rude so I leave. Then I come back and let her know I don't care about the discount of the gas , I'll pay regular price but, I don't want the car wash, she says she can't do that, then Jason comes to the counter she does the same thing . She doesn't want to deal with something the company she works for created. Never in my entire life having been in military and having traveled extensively have I seen a gas station do this. I'm sure it must be in the fine print somewhere but, most people when they say yes to a car wash , don't think it will be a $20 car wash down the street ?!?! Also , pushing me off to call a number to deal with this? No one who works there can handle a $20 issue ? I don't believe that . If they are doing this shiesty gimmicky stuff I guarantee it doesn't stop there. I bet anything I'm not the first person to complain about this weird situation they have set up

    So glad they finally have a Fuel depot near me! Previously I had to go to the other side of town to…read moreget gas at the Fuel Depot. I like Fuel Depot compared to other gas stations because the prices are reasonable, they provide hand sanitizer pumps near all the pumps, it's always clean, and this location takes the android /apple pay!
