This was definitely the fanciest Tesla Supercharging station I have ever been to, and I think it's what they were originally going for. This place has I think two or three different voltage charging rates for the Tesla cars. It also has an indoor space (must use your app to unlock the doors) with restrooms, vending machines, and a few tables and free wifi to recharge you as much as your car. All charging spots seemed to be in good service and did not require repair, unlike other Supercharger locations. On the "could be improved" side: 1. I didn't see any windshield wiping supplies, as someone else had mentioned. 2. There's also not too much within walking distance other than a Starbucks. There's a bigger center across a busy street/cross section (i.e., the main road right off the freeway). 3. While I appreciate the frequent cleaning, the smell of disinfectant was so overpowering that it was hard to eat in the main lounge area. This is something that would have upset my dad, who is sensitive to smell. My mom had to step out of the lounge. read more

Great concept but room for improvement. ample charging stations. They have windshield washing squeegie's but no water in the buckets! so sad because central California bugs were all over my windshield. the building has wifi, clean bathrooms with an attendant servicing them. assorted vending machines throughout and ample seating. all in all it was pretty darn cool here. read more

Tesla Supercharger - EV Charging Stations Near Me - Kettleman City, California

One of the best Tesla superchargers because you get access to the lounge that comes with it. It's clean, gets serviced regularly, and has great comfortable seating for you to take a break on your road trip while charging. The code to enter is available on your Tesla app. They have a bottle filling station which is great as well. The chargers here go up to 250kW so while you are taking a break you can get enough mileage to continue your trip. Every single time we do a SoCal trip we would stop at this lounge. There's also plenty of places to grab a bite around as well such as In N Out! read more

I came here about two weeks ago as a friend needed to charge her car and she has never been to this location. She thank me for suggesting this location as there is a rest area where you can buy coffee and chairs to rest. Best of all there is bathroom and water refill. There is vending machine inside that you can buy snacks. There is also walking distance to a taco restaurant nearby which you can buy food to go and come back and eat at the rest area. read more

Great if you have a Tesla but sucks if you're EV is not. Lounge feels cheesy and Musky.

I really miss the coffee shop they had inside. I know it prob didn't do much business w Starbucks across the street (and now a newer one even closer/across a diff street) but it was just a fun treat whenever we'd roll through for a charge. Still very clean and still think they need to update that keypad and code. I'm posting two pictures of my lattes I took from back when they did still have the inside Tesla coffee shop. The other pics are from last month (December 2025)- what the place looks like currently. read more

Beware of the vending machines! This location is still one of my favorites because of its fast chargers, windshield cleaning supplies, hot/cold water dispensers, and indoor/outdoor places to sit. When vending machines replaced the coffee stand, it was disappointing but at least the machines were convenient and easy to use and pay for via digital wallet. BUT, the new vending machines from 365 Retail Markets are a scam. We were overcharged by over twice the posted price on each of our different transactions, the receipt promised was never sent, and the requested response to a survey was unanswered. Enjoy the lounge, but skip the machines unless you want to be ripped off with no receipt and no recourse. read more

This is my #1 choice for Tesla Supercharger when traveling through Central California. - Big location - Not lonely, people are here - No shady people or cars when I visited - Starbucks is next door - Free windshield squeegee/wiper... Although the wiper was uneven and makes cleaning a bit of a pain. - Free tire air pump It's nice that there's Tesla Lounge, secured by access code which you can find on your Tesla app. However, I don't think the lounge is all that nice or great. It reminds me of a government office, bank branch, and the floor lounge in my college freshman dorm about 20 years ago. But at least it's climate controlled and has seats. I deplore public restrooms and will only use in extreme emergency. I checked out the lounge men's restroom just to see... While not atrocious, it' smelled strongly of urine, and there was spots of waste on the urinals and toilets. Thankfully, someone opened the door on my way out, so I didn't have to touch the door handle. Note that there are outdoor restrooms too. You use the same lounge code you'll find in your Tesla app. These restrooms were noticeable better than the lounge restrooms. So if you're in an emergency situation but still can hold for just for another two minutes... Know that you got choices in case your first choice restroom is out of control. read more

We're normally across the street at Bravo Farms, but we decided to check out this station since we didn't need food. First of all - there are a ton of chargers available both 250kW and 150kW. I just read up on the difference and car compatibility - worth looking into if you're a new Tesla owner. The lounge is very close to the charging stalls (as opposed to Bravo Farms, where you need to walk a little). The lounge is large, with clean restrooms, and free WiFi. Coffee and snacks are available for purchase at vending machines. Nice place to relax while your car is charging. Great supercharging spot! read more

This Tesla Supercharger station is located in Kettleman City and has a nice lounge area that is free to use. I stopped by here as a mid way point on my drive at interstate 5. This is a nice location because there are many chargers, a lounge space for resting, and restrooms. The lounge code can be found via the app or when the Tesla is routed to that location. Best part is that it's near restaurants, some walking distance and some that would require a 1-2 minute drive. This was my third time at this Tesla supercharger location and it looks different than it did before. It looks newer, there are no workers inside, and the prepackaged foods and drinks require payment. Therefore, I didn't get to interact with staff there. Overall, with the convenience of getting to charge an EV and having a space to rest, this place continues to be my go-to rest stop when driving on the i5. read more

The supercharger station is clean, spacious, and has ample charging spots. The bathrooms are quite average, and the interior is fairly plain. While it is meant to be a pit stop for maybe 20-30 minutes, it really doesn't have any features that provide a premium experience. Its barebones facade, both inside and out, don't really align with any "exclusivity", and the quiet energy inside feels very "sterile". read more

This is a great Tesla charging stop. There's plenty of chargers and a Tesla building you can rest inside of. Some basic drinks and beverages you can buy. Cushy seats.

This is a huge facility with over 20 charging stations! In the summer, this place is an oasis for Tesla charger users. Besides the solar panels covered charging stations, the users may access the lounge nearby. Inside the lounge, you may test, relax, use restrooms, and hang out while charging your cars. One note, though, non EV cars parked there may be towed away by owner's expense. The lounge has service personnel for cleaning & monitoring. Additionally, there are restrooms detached from lounge, but a word of caution, though, no climate control there. It will be either extremely cold in winter & extremely hot in summer! One tiny nuisance that I found was the fact that 1st time user may hard time finding the access code (in the Tesla app) to the lounge! Error message would appear instead of access codes when one press the location followed by selecting the appropriate lounge! The workaround is to scroll down and select the appropriate named lounge. Then, you will see the code inside the info page. Enjoy re-charging to human as well as your EVs! read more

This is by far my favorite Tesla Supercharger! Not only are there tons of stalls, but they've set up a super cozy spot for travelers to chill. While your car's getting its juice, you can grab snacks, sip on coffee, or even enjoy free hot and cold water. Restrooms? Sparkling clean. Seating area? Spotless. Perfect pit stop if you're taking a highway road trip -- honestly, if all charging stops were like this, I'd look forward to running low on battery. Highly recommend! read more

LOTS of chargers up to 250Kw. The unique feature is the LOUNGE. See picture for directions for code to enter door. It's disappointing that it is completely automated. It's cool and comfy but not user friendly. There are no prices on the vending machines. One machine has a digital option to look up prices but the coffee hot chocolate machine did not. Do I have to scroll down the OTHER machine's price list? Who knows. Just plan ahead for the learning curve. LOL! read more

Love the newly renovated lounge, it looks so much more spacious and clean. We love coming here everytime we head to and back from so cal.

This has been a rapidly declining charging spot over the last 12 months to clarify, five stars for fast charging, one star for run down, unkempt lounge The big draw at least for me was the clean seating areas, clean bathrooms and delicious freshly brewed coffee made by friendly barista. Now replaced by coffee vending machine reminiscent of the hot drinks served at the Altrincham leisure center in the 1970's ! If you need a quick run to the loo and a fast charge, this does the job. But if a nice break from your journey is what you seek, I'd skip this place read more

This was my first time at a tesla lounge and what a disappointment. I can see from pictures posted years ago that it once was an actual lounge. Now it's a step above a gas station bathroom.

We stopped by this charging station twice. On the outside it looks great, and there are plenty of chargers. There is a water station, you can get cold and hot water. The inside smells like cleaning supplies. The bathroom is stuffy. And the vending machines do not work. There are 2 walls of vending machines and none of them worked. We ended up walking to Starbucks next door for food and rest. read more

You will need to get access code to the lounge through your Tesla App If you are traveling to LA on I5 then this is a good place to charge your Tesla car. They have both the 250Kw and 150K charging. If you want to spend more time in the lounge then choose the 159Kw charging. The bathrooms are clean. There is comfortable seating and they have vending machines if you want munchies. They also have a staffed espresso bar. There are several restaurants nearby if you want something more substantial than the vending machines They have free WiFi. Track your charging since it is $1 per minute for idle time. read more

This is an impressive Tesla charger. I went to this charger once. First time was a little bit later at night and the merchandise store is closed. We came back earlier during the day and they was a staff selling some merchandise from caps to the shirts. The bathroom was clean. The place was also pretty good. They have vending machines for snacks, drinks, and coffee. Unfortunately, when we went back during the day, the kilowatt per hour was low, maybe because there were a lot of cars. read more

Cool place, I didn't know Tesla built lounges. Hope in they build more in the future. It helps when traveling long distances. We're on our way to lake Tahoe and needed a charge and use the bathroom. This was a one stop shop. The only objective criticism would have to be the cleanliness of their bathrooms and attention to detail. Thank you, EPM read more

Insane supercharger location. Clean, yes. Snacks, cold drinks and coffee, yes. Even a lounge, now that's new! Restrooms...yes with a caveat! You need a lounge code! So they have a separate outhouse just restrooms. There's also restrooms in the lounge house. If you really need to go to the bathroom you better get that code before you even stop and get out of the car cause you can't get into either without the code! Would be nice as a pop up as soon as you roll in or plug the charger. I wasn't the only one doing the pee pee dance having to go grab my phone and figure out how to get the code. Which is 0822! You're welcome!!! There are 40 stalls at this location. There are also employees inside the lounge! Not sure how long they hang around for. If it's boiling out, it's nice and cool inside the with seating and Wi-Fi. (See pics for code). The restrooms are clean. Paper towels in there would be nice too. The lounge pit stop is nice. They could improve the restroom situation. Also the fruit flys are insane. Somehow a bazillion get into your car. We had at least half a dozen hitchhike all the way back to San Diego! read more

Excellent Tesla Supercharger Lounge @250kW. TESLA owner access code available on the App or on your Tesla GPS. This weary traveller was greeted by the familiar, oh so spacious, modern, airy, and sleek Tesla interior with impeccabile and well maintained restrooms, large bright windows with views of the distant farmlands, complimentary filtered water, and vending machines with drinks, snacks, sandwiches and coffee available for purchase. Free Air and Windshield Cleaning Solution and Squeegee availabe too. This was a great option in Kettleman City which has 2 Superchargers.... NOTE there is another Supercharger station just a quarter of a mile away closer to Bravoland. THIS, however is the highly recommended alternative, although a slightly longer walk to nearby food options. read more

Pretty nice oasis along the Highway 5 stretch between SF and LA. The seating area is nice. But it will be hit or miss as Tesla drivers like all vehicles have owners with loud children who cannot shut up. That's life though and not Tesla's fault. The coffee is not complimentary. For some reason, I thought it was. But the area is relatively clean and there is a restroom and it is cool inside. You need a pass code to enter the lounge area and it is provided on your Tesla App. If you have a water bottle, there is complimentary water. The charging station is a bit slower it seemed. But the lounge area is so comfy that I don't mind. Total cost of charge from 50% to 90% wasn't too bad. Maybe $7-8? Gas stations here by contrast charge between $6.25-$7/gallon. So glad that I will never need to go a gas station ever again. read more

Tesla Supercharger - The vending machines have been removed!! - EV Charging Stations Near Me - Kettleman City, California

This is a very clean and chill place to stop for charge and rest. Definitely enjoyed every time passing by.

Took the longest road trip ever with an EV from Vegas to San Francisco which I don't recommend (3 1-hourish stops so a 12hr drive instead of 9hr). We always plan our trip to stop at this Kettleman City charger on the 5 when I'm driving our Tesla - code to enter is on your screen. They definitely need more supercharger stops like this! No more having to go to a crappy fast food restroom and sheepishly asking a cashier for the door code who hates their job. They sell coffee and matcha during "regular" hours and have a vending machine and lounge. They even sell their merch which is the same stuff online, so no exclusives or out of stock merch found here which they need too! I would be that crazy person to drive all the way out here for the out of stock model x-mas sweater, Tesla and chill blanket, and diecasts! Maybe at least sell the corded mobile connector charger or something useful besides shirts ugh. Pet owners: There's a dedicated poop area with a fire hydrant and plenty of turf grass for your fur babies. At night like 3am there are stray cats roaming around so keep your dog/cat/ferret/pig on a leash if they're not trained Charging: -24 Superchargers, available 24/7, up to 150kW -16 Superchargers, available 24/7, up to 250kW (These are located along the dirt wall PARK HERE! The superchargers have signs on top telling you if it's 250 or 150kW so read unlike me who just pulls into the first stop I see from charging parking lot PTSD) Note: There's a windshield wiper cleaner wand and tire pressure gauge I think in the middle of the dirt wall 250kW side read more

One of the coolest and best superchargers I've ever stopped to charge at! There's more than enough charging stalls to make finding one to plug in at no hassle at all. Some are 150kW, some are 250 kW. A couple are located near a tire inflator and windshield washer station. Regardless of the one you use, the main attraction is definitely the Tesla lounge. How cool is that?! To access the lounge, there's a special code you need to enter to open the doors. Makes you feel like a part of an exclusive club lol. Inside the lounge, there's plenty of tables and chairs to relax at. There's a seating area with partitioned off ottomans if you want some privacy with comfort thrown in. There's clean bathrooms and a convenient water bottle refill station. There's even a coffee bar that makes some great coffee drinks if you need a jolt of caffeine! There's also vending machines that vend drinks, snacks, and even sandwiches. Of course, it wouldn't be Tesla without a Tesla solar showroom, which you see to the right as you go in. There's also a Tesla Powerwall as well to complement the solar display. I got a green tea latte from the bar. At a reasonable $4.25, it was a milky, mellow drink with a decent green tea punch to it. The baristas were nice and friendly, and I saw them chatting with a couple other patrons while making drinks. If you're traveling up and down the I-5 and you need to charge a Tesla, this is a must stop to make a boring, long drive into a more bearable one. read more

Also, this is a really really fast charger! There's water in here, a coffee bar (not sure when it's ever open), vending machines, and bathrooms!!! The bathrooms were pretty clean. We stopped late about 10:30pm and they were being cleaned at this time. read more

I had heard the legend but I wasn't ready. The mister and I planned to spend the weekend in southern California. He flew from elsewhere and I drove down the 5. The legendary Tesla Lounge was on the route. I got to Kettleman City's lounge around 8 AM to find more Superchargers, both 150KWh and 250 KWh, than I'd ever seen in one place before!!! I watch a lot of Tesla Joy videos so I was really looking forward to it and had my fingers crossed that I could get inside. Did you know that there is a code to get in? Your app will generate it for you. This is a lovely little security feature. It is aggressively clean! It is both sleek and comfortable. There are places to sit, games, wifi and vending machines. Some features are only available between 9am and 8pm. -- There is apparel for sale. This surprised me. -- There is a coffee bar! I got an Autopilot in Ludicrous Mode. The price is about the same as McCafe and quality above Starbucks. Definitely visit if you're traveling along the 5. We stopped together while traveling back north. It was about 2AM so we used the coffee vending machine. The vanilla latte eas surprisingly tasty! The Americano was taste free but functionally caffeinated. Safe and clean place to stop! read more
