The absolutely best small business care service. They don't treat customers like numbers, but as if they truly care about the vehicle and the safety of the owner. They don't push services. Stopped by yesterday and found they're no longer in business, but the mass car dealer bought them out. Sad day for our community. read more

So incredibly sad that this shop is closed now, they were the absolute best in the community. Always fair and professional, never upcharged and always had the car and owner's best interest. Sad to see you guys go! read more

OH NO Lube Center, where did you go? I drive across Boise to get my oil changed at The Lube Center because they always go above and beyond with every vehicle we own. Went to get oil changed on 12/19/25 and the Fairview location is now a used car lot. Hopeful that the business just moved, but I fear the worst. read more

Kids working there did not put the forest amount of oil in my duramax. Owner Brad handled it like a child. Refuses to do anything about it even though the dealership states all damage was due to oil starvation. Brad is a total turd and you should stay far far away. read more

This is a family owned business, not a chain. Always the best service. They are fast and efficient. Never over charge or try to upsell services that are not needed. We have used them for years and will continue to do so. read more

These guys were fast, professional, and nice guys to deal with. They allowed us to stay in the car as they serviced it which was nice. I would definitely use them again when I'm back in their neighborhood. read more

Can't recommend these boys enough! Went in for an oil change and quick checkup and was made aware of problems a previous mechanic swindled me over. These guys definitely saved me a totaled car and a hell of a lot of money. Will keep coming back! read more

Great experience - quick in and out for oil change. Helpful young man Dakota gave me some useful tips as his car had the same engine. I understand this is the last independently-owned oil changer in the area. I shall return! read more

The dealership did a pressure test. No leak. It was just really low. Had your technician actually checked it, he would have topped it off (which by the way he claimed he did). Look at your cameras, he never checked it. And it was my decision to put water in the radiator because me and my family were stuck on the side of the freeway and I had no other option. It isn't exactly a safe place to be with cars zooming by you at 80MPH. It was your techs negligence that put us in that situation. read more

If I could rate this place 10 stars I would. They are honest and ethical. A dealership was doing an oil change for me and told me I was down to 25% on my brakes and I needed them all replaced. I brought my car to The Lube Center for a second opinion and they said my front brakes were only at 50% and my rear brakes were still around 65% and that I had probably another year before I needed to even think about replacing them. I left with no work done and no charge charges. A year later I had them replace my front brakes and they confirmed I still didn't need to do my rear brakes! And the one time there was a little hiccup with a bolt after having some work done - they fixed it for free. They stand by their work and they're honest - that's the kind of business I will continue to support! read more

Brought my car in for an oil change because it was on the way home, and am now a permanent customer. I lucked out on timing, catching them at a moment with no other customers, and a full crew, so the entire visit took 20 minutes. The man who helped me (whose name I can't recall, unfortunately), was very nice, professional, patient, and informative. I really appreciate that he didn't try to upsell me on anything I didn't need, and took care of everything that did. Thank you! read more

Great, friendly service! We needed an oil change during our trip back from the Arches National Park to Oregon. We saw on Yelp that this spot has great reviews. And the comments were right! We got in at a good time (2pm on Thursday) and was able to get the oil change in about 30 minutes or less. (Note: I'm used to having two hour wait for oil changes in Oregon). The staff were very friendly and kind. Now we're on to Westside Drive-In for finger steaks based on their recommendation. Thanks Idaho! read more

I had a good experience here. They got me in, performed the service well and all is good. Not much around there but the waiting room is ok.

Boise, Idaho --- "Flo" needed a "high-milage" oil change & YELP (& the pARTy Gods) sent me to "The Lube Center" & "DJ" to give her a refresh ... DJ is very professional & gave me confidence in his caring for "Flo" even discovered a driver's side high-beam outage ... any reason for a police pull-over, is notba good thing for a P.PH./Professional pARTy Hunter pARTy Gods gave me a lead to a 1950's "Andy's" bar location went vintage pick-up pulled up and Greg gave me the "604 Orchard Street" address just down the road day 119 "DUSA 2017" (Discover USA) #RunAwayBill #DUSA2017 "Run-A-Way Bill" was here! 06.21.17 read more

Quick knowledgeable oil change with full service. I checked after they were done and they had in fact topped off the fluids and actually greased the grease zerks on my older truck which has several grease zerks. read more

These guys are great, found them on Yelp while traveling for the holidays. Wish I was still local so I could be a more frequent customer! Friendly, helpful, and promptly provided the service I needed without trying to sell me anything more that I didn't. Overall great experience, and I know the regular customers love them too from the number of home baked goodies in the waiting area! Thanks again! read more

New customer here! I love how very knowledgeable the staff are here. I got an oil change in less than 15 mins. Polite, kind, and professional! Consider me a Permanent customer read more

I wanna give things to this company for help me out with my vehicle issues. I had some clunking in the engine and I changed oil frequently on my car. These folks decided to do a quick inspection and found the exact is you and it only took a matter of about an hour of my time. I highly recommend these folks to anybody who is in need of give the regals checked especially for something to do with the engine problems if you're leaking oil or even if you hear weird noises. The money spent is well worth it and the time that it takes to do the job makes it worse that is well. I highly recommend this company for the quality of service that they do and the time efficiency that they provide with conducting that service for you. read more

The line was a little longer that I thought it'd be but it went quickly! They did a good job, well worth it.

I was in the middle of a cross country road trip and wanted an oil change to make sure I got home safe. These guys were quick, efficient, friendly, fairly priced, and really put my mind at ease when we talked about my car being safe to get home. They were great representatives of the quality people I met during my stay in Boise. read more

I recommend The Lube Center for oil changes and more. No appointment necessary (I did call before coming in to make sure they were not tied up). They began changing my oil change within minutes of my arrival. They offer traditional, synthetic blends, high mileage synthetic blends and full synthetic. The team here works together to check (and top off, if necessary) all your fluids while your oil is being changed! They also talked me through the state (quality) of my fluids and when I might consider additional maintenance (like fluid flushes). That discussion was consistent with my existing understanding of fluid maintenance. They offer wiper blade replacement so competitively priced I opted to replace my front and rear blades. They also checked the cabin air filter (that filters your heater and A/C air to your cabin). That thing was pretty fouled and changing it lead to an immediate improvement in my cabin airflow. I was glad they did this, because I didn't even know where that filter was (behind the glove box, in my case). Gary, the owner, is very knowledgeable and works with his team closely to create a great customer experience. The entire staff seemed interested in and contributed to my conversation with Gary about my car's maintenance. They are a well oiled team, and it seems as if they all care about and contribute to creating a positive work environment -which I appreciate! I am grateful to be able to support a business that is this well run. Thank you Gary and team! read more

I've gotten two oil changes from this shop. During my last oil change it was pointed out that I needed my serpentine belts replaced. I also asked about a tire rotation and was told that he could throw in a tire rotation if I came back and got the belts replaced. I came back a few weeks later and asked about getting the tire rotation thrown in. The service crew laughed it off and acted like there was no way anyone would promise that. I think they do good work, but I was really out off by that. A simple "I apologize, but I can't authorize that" would have gone a long way to keep me as a customer. Vehicle maintenance is a commoditized service and there are dozens of shops I could have gone to. Why give your customers a reason to go somewhere else? read more

I just have to tell everyone these Guys are the Best! they never push me to buy more then I need and I trust them, they have been so good to me many times, I ran in one day because I was leaking Transmission fluid and they took it right in looked it over and tightened a few things up, at no charge! great customer service. Thanks Lube Center of Boise. read more

These guys were super friendly, fast, and had a great price for my synthetic. I opted for these guys because my regular place was booked up. They're out my way, but I'll be making the drive to have my oil changed here again. My only gripe There is not a person at the front desk at all times and checking in/out took a few minutes because I was waiting for someone to appear. That being said, the techs more than made up the time with the actual work. read more

These guys were great and I will definitely be back. I thought the prices were very fair and less than half of what the dealership wanted. read more

THE BEST PLACE FOR AN OIL CHANGE. I have been coming here for years. They are so fast, efficient, and helpful with everything they do. Always have a good attitude and you never feel taken advantage of. I will always bring my cars here. *****update I was in a car accident recently and my bumper was popping on and off. The guys here fixed it so it would stay on until I could get the car fixed at the auto body shop. You are silly to not bring your car to the best oil center in town! read more

I have used other lube shops all over the valley. The pros at this shop really take good care of your car. Everything is checked and topped off. They even check the air in the spare tire. I will keep going back, they are fast and efficient! read more

Great no-nonsense service. Fast and friendly. I'll be back and refer them to everyone I know.

I had been going to Einstein oilery because I like family owned businesses. I like to give them my business rather then big franchises. Einstein was bought out by Valvoline. I went to Yelp to look for another lube and oil place and found The Lube Center. I was very happy with their promptness and price. I will go back there when I need my oil changed again. Good place to go. read more

First time I've had my oil changed here and was a good first impression. Will be back as customer service was good and it was quick!

Our family has taken all of our cars to The Lube Center for over 10 years. Recently, when changing out the airbag in my Honda, the local dealership said I needed to get new brakes immediately, which would cost 260. I always have The Lube Center replace our brakes so I made an appointment with them (they quoted me 180). When they inspected my brakes, they told me I have 10,000 miles (40% left on my brake pads) and didn't charge me for the appointment. This is not the first time that they have saved me money after a quote from a tire shop or a dealership. Our family is loyal and we will never go anywhere else for service if it is something The Lube Center can perform. Thanks DJ and Gary!! read more

What a great place! I was visiting my family in my 31' RV and it was time for an oil change after traveling to Michigan from So Cal and back west to Boise. They said they could accommodate my rig, and they were right...I made it into the bay with about 3" to spare on each side lol! DJ and owner Gary are super nice folks to deal with, and the price they quoted on the phone turned out to be for a class A (I have a class C), so it ended up costing about half what they first quoted. They checked out everything and did a great, quick job. I highly recommend this business! read more

These guys are seriously awesome. They're so helpful and kind! I went in for an oil change and they even cleaned my windshield because it was so dirty. Even though it is A drive From home I will definitely be going back! They made my day. read more

This is my new oil change place! The service was super fast, friendly, and not pushy like some other oil change joints. They do more than others too, eventually I'll get my transmission flush here as well. The checked my tires, filled my fluids and even washed my front window! read more

We have been coming here for our last couple oil changes. Staff is knowledgeable and efficient. They let you know if anything needs any additional work that may need to be done in the future (prior to just jumping in and charging you for it). Honest and friendly people. Coffee available in the waiting area and there are coupons online. read more

Went in for oil change and whatever else might need to be done. I was treated fairly and with respect. Workers were professional. I was treated honestly. I asked about other possible service my car might need. They looked up in service manuals when my car should have certain services like transmission fluid change and coolant flush and told me I did not need that at this time. They did not try to sell me something I did not need. They were prompt in their work and I was out quickly. I will be back! read more

These guys are great. They are quick and very helpful. They are also locally owned which is a big bonus! I won't go anywhere else but here. They are also extremely honest!! read more

The waiting room is clean! I can't tell you how many oil change establishments I've been to where I am horrified to have my kids in the waiting area. Plus - they are so nice! Very helpful and friendly staff. I will be back in for my next oil change and every one after that! read more

This is a top-notch shop. The guys do a great job at a great price and no B.S. I got an oil change with full-synthetic and a tail light replaced for a very reasonable price. They had me out in under 20 minutes. I will continue doing business here and will recommend to others. read more
