Dec 2023 (New Ownership)…read more When asked for an itemized quote ahead of time, owner acted out at me saying, "I won't work with you" because "You don't trust me." When I protested at his hostility I mentioned that I am a lifelong resident here and this is a nice town. He then walked over to the young female cashier and took this out on her. I felt terrible, watching her try to defend herself. I proceeded based on a previous review. I showed up early Monday morning only to be shoved off to the next day because "a mechanic called in sick." Later, the owner stated this had been because he "had accidentally put [me] on the schedule for the next day." He was persistently dishonest throughout and did not care about me or my car one bit. When further work was needed I was once again pushed off to the next day when I showed up. My time is valuable. But I was very patient and understanding. Owner said he would give me "a small discount" for this. But instead he tried to overcharge me when work was complete. Luckily, I could product the written estimate he had forgotten he had given me. I still paid too much. I had begged him throughout to be thorough with my car's diagnosis, discussing its symptoms repeatedly. But he did not do his due diligence, instead "guessing" and changing out parts. This did not work, and cost me $1000 -- all the money I had budgeted for repairs. He didn't even drive the car afterwards to confirm the repair. No alignment (which the car so badly needed after his work) was When I called later to complain, he dodged me. No corrections were ever made. Don't give him any business. He doesn't deserve it. And do NOT buy ANY excuses he tries to give you for his behavior. He knows what he's like.

Just had my recently bought 1982 Mercedes convertible repaired at Public. Despite the dificulty to…read moreobtain some parts, Eddie and Ely, the owner and mechanic, returned my car to as good as new mechanical condition. The car sounds, handles and runs magnificently! Could not be happier! They are always friendly and their final invoice surprised me by how reasonable was compared with the amount of effort required to fix my substantial list, to which they added a couple of problem items I did not know about! I had satisfactorily used this service station many times before for repairs to my family's cars, but this last service has prompted me to write this review. I would strongly recommend this Public service and gas station.

He put air in and then told me I needed new front brakes. i knew when I had new brakes in ( 3 months ago) done by Sullivan Tire that has done all my car maintenance and repairs for years. so I left and took my car to Sullivan and my mechanic That I totally trust looked at brakes and said they are fine ( I knew this) so I went back to see Eddie and as soon as he saw me he began yelling at me because he knew why I was back.. he was trying to scam me and suddenly he knew that I knew.. I asked him why was he trying to scam me which Made him more aggressive..needless to say, I wont be going there for gas anymore.

Connected to the full service garage is a gas station and convenience store with a larger than expected selection of snacks and mealstuffs. Plexiglass dividers abound, along with signs requesting masks, but only half the staff were wearing them. Wasn't entirely comfortable, especially with those inside.

Why some people are leaving reviews about oil changes for this gas station is confusing to say the…read moreleast, since they do NOT do any oil changes here. This Shell gas station is located near the Pembroke route 3 exit. The prices aren't too bad but that's because a gas station across the street lowered their prices so this station did the same. Not as cheap but close enough. Pluses are the station is open 24 hours a day and has a Mary Lou's Coffee (not open 24 hours) . They also have some pre-made sandwiches and the usual munchies you expect a station like this to have. They have a pour it yourself soda machine and they have two bathrooms that are constantly stocked and kept clean. The clerks are friendly but the biggest issue here is the EBT Machine barely works. It's 2022 how do you not have a working functional EBT machine? While it's easy enough to get into the gas station getting out can be an adventure as route 139 is loaded with uncourteous drivers that Massachusetts is famous for I believe they're call Massholes. So if you're trying to make a left out of the gas station it can take awhile during heavy traffic times. You also have to deal with boatloads of people who run red lights since LE no longer enforces that law. Summary: This gas station would be a slam dunk must go to if they didn't have issues with the EBT machine which slows the line down considerably. So if you're planning on getting food with your EBT card then this is not the place for you. Sorry to say. I took two stars off for the EBT card problems because it really causes the line to slow down. In the year 2022 and almost into 2023 this kind of petty problem should not exist with modern technology that is available.

Brought our car in for a routine oil change ($75). Next…read moremorning I came out to the car and oil was all over the driveway. We checked the oil dip stick and it was completely empty! We contacted Shell and they did come out to the house to look at it (the only reason I even gave one star) Turns out our oil pan was cracked-COINCIDENTALLY the morning after they changed our oil. We have NEVER had a problem with leaking oil (the car has been running great). They would not take full responsibility and after the unfortunate back and forth, their oh so kind "discount" and an offer for a free future oil change (are we nuts??)-it wound up costing us $400. We will NEVER-I repeat NEVER-return to this station. I am heartbroken the Kantarowski's no longer own it. That was quality service that no longer is at this station.
