Chevron

CLOSED.
NOW A SHELL STATION.
Al-​Ron Chevron is no more.
This is now a Shell station.
Shell gasoline contains ethanol, which I prefer not to buy.
Gasohol can be harsh on the rubber parts and seals on some engines. Mine actually says E85 is okay, but gasohol also contains less fuel energy than an equal volume of gasoline, meaning you should always pay less for gasohol than gas. Its just worth less money per gallon.

This would be a zero star if able to give one. This place has been treating my wife like crap every time she comes in. She’s told me about it every time but I kept telling her she must have gotten them on a bad day. I came in asked the guy behind the counter for «34gallons of diesel on number 10» and he looked up at me slightly and said «well I need a dollar amount» And looked back down at his phone. (He was watching a movie I guess I was interrupting his theater going experience) I at first didn’t care I needed fuel so I pulled out my phone and was going to calculate the amount he requested and I asked the guy behind the counter (once again interrupting his theater going experience) for the current price of diesel. At this point he looked up at me and told me that the price was outside and pointed at a sign on the street and he said but I can’t see it I didn’t know that their computer system did not tell them the price of what they were selling their goods for. At which point I realized my wife was correct and that that specific location royally suck at this point I told the guy behind the counter that I will gladly take my business elsewhere as I buy two tanks of fuel a week. I thought my wife was exaggerating because I’d been to this location a few times but after the past couple of times me going I have realize she’s not lying I’m just oblivious.

If I could give zero stars I would, some woman who can hardly speak English just made me walk back and forth to my car three times and made me think my card was being declined because she kept running it as debit when it was credit. Not to mention that she was on her cell phone the entire time, probably why she didn’t hear me say credit the first two times!!!

Let’s face it, gas prices are high… yes, I’m whining and complaining… and yes, I am not stopping or curbing my driving habits. I’m not investing in a hybrid (yet), nor have I went out and purchased the latest model Behemoth for 2 miles to the gallon…
Ranting aside, what is a normal everyday commuter gonna do? Well, easiest solution is to find the best gas prices.
My Solution: Chevron here on Central. Pay in cash (save your credit cards for the real purchases or else get a Chevron card) go do your grocery shopping at Vons, and 1 Vons gas award is worth $ 0.10 off per gallon at the pump. Maximum of 2 reward credits per transaction…

I normally don’t check into gas stations and write reviews but this is an exception.
Came on ¹⁰⁄₁₆ at 11am for gas. The SOLE PURPOSE of a gas station is for gas. However, there was an older dude waving a lot of customers say «No gas. No gas». Turned away about 3 – 4 cars in the 5 seconds I was on their property.
Been here several times and they offer one of the lowest prices in a 3 – 5 mile radius with Chevron behind its name. But what gas station doesn’t have gas?!

Asked a mechanic how much to plug a tire. Was told $ 15, but to see the manager, Willy.
Willy says «$ 20. I Dont care what that mechanic told you. Im an asshole and I’ll charge what I want.». Straight from the horse’s, I mean ass’ mouth.
Customer service here is bad and will not be coming here again for anything as it seems they are in business to rip you OFF. If you can’t treat your customers right, you don’t deserve to be in business.
There’s usually a discrepancy between the prices advertised v what you are actually charged when paying by card. I would review the receipt every single time you pump gas.

Cheap gas prices always attract us to this spot. Conveniently located at the corner of Central and Tamarack, too bad it doesn’t have lotto.

Time for another update, well, wish it has gotten better, but this place has gone to he11, Always several pumps out of order, squeegees and cleaning water still pathetic, custmer service still stinks from the 2 or 3 arrogant asses that work there, several very nice run ins with a lady that works behind the counter, Kudos to her, fire the rest!!!
Go down the street to the 76 on Brea Blvd, same prices, cleaner, quicker, better, Sorry Chevron, I’m done!

Convenient, fast and ok prices.

This was my first visit and this place seems to be a scam. There is a 10 cent discrepancy between the posted price on the corner and what the pumps are charging. The clerk was no help. I had to call customer service. The lady on the phone «thinks» that they «might» be charging a different price for using a card over cash payment and «maybe» they haven’t put their signs up yet. I had to leave a message for someone else who wasn’t there to handle this issue. I won’t be ping back.

Pretty cheap price for gas in this area. It’s never usually busy when i go, so its a quick fill up and go. only went for gas, don’t know how the service is.

With the gas price low its easy on the wallet to fill up. Please check the coolest time to fill as you get more gas, pump slowly to reduce evaporation and do not push and top off your tank as you loose gasoline being diverted to away from your gas tank by smog lines. So just stop filing when the lever clicks.
Keep your tire pressure higher then recommended, I usually add 5 lbs more then what the sticker on the car states and it rolls better.
I love the Chevron stations as you do not have to pay to put air in the tires, you just tell the person in tat you filled gas and you need air for the tires they will turn the unit on. This is required by law in the state of California.
The access is easy in and easy out at these stations.

always the low price leader, always. ;)

One of the cheapest gas in the area! 5 stars for price!

Cheapest Chevron gas station I’ve found in SoCal to date, something you 91 octane gas snobs can truly appreciate. Does the OC has lower gas taxes or something? Minus one star for the occasional broken pump and no lotto.

This Chevron is about five miles further than the one closest to me, but it’s worth the extra distance to fill my tank up. Filled up last night and they were SIXTEEN cents cheaper a gallon than the one near me. Talk about gouging!

Clean, easy to get in and out of. Lots of pumps.

Brea Chevron a beacon for cheap gas,
prices that even satisfy my cheap ass.
Darn, a broken pump or two,
leads to frustration and much boohoo.
Hey there’s snacks inside for a nice treat,
but my tank’s still empty, I’m goin’ down the street!

I have to agree… aside from Costco — This Chevron always has the cheapest gas around! They’ve got 10 pumps so there’s hardly a wait too!
