Aten Express

Thiis is my go-​to gas station whenever I visit family in Imperial/​El Centro. It typically takes a half tank of gas from San Diego, so I always fill up upon arrival to make the round trip back to San Diego. I was a bit surprised to see that the price of gas here was about the same as San Diego on my last trip, but maybe that is because the price of gas is down everywhere. This will remain my go-​to fill up station :-)

Aten is the best Gas Station in the imperial valley! They have everything you need! They’re car wash service is amazing!

The people here are always friendly. Great selection ranging from Guinness Ale to good coffee. Better than 7 – 11 by far.

Good place to stop and pick up cold drinks, snacks and ice. The gas prices here are moderate. Not the cheapest in the area, but not the most expensive either. The car wash is pretty decent here. They have a person scrub your vehicle before you enter the automatic car wash and another person hand dry your car when you exit. Make sure you tip them if they do a good job, it’s hard work, especially with the Imperial Valley summer heat beating down on them all day.

Aten Express seems to have everything you need in a gas station it has cold beer, sodas and a variety of snacks and candies not to mention a car wash on site so you can fill up wash up and sooth your dry mouth or sweet tooth all in one place.
The gas is reasonably priced for the Valley plus it even has a Pacific Pride gas pump for commercial fueling needs they also have a good amount of pumps to accommodate everyone at any given time.

Beer Run!
Went down for Xmas and we had run out of beer so decided to make a stop here. The staff is friendly and the building is very clean. Everytime i went in the ice bag fell apart and the girl with no hesitation told me to get a new one. The gas isnt expensive so everytime i start to head back to SD i make sure to gas it up here. Its also convenient being my granny lives down the street.

Finally, a clean, large, and reasonably priced gas station!
First of all, the clerks are friendly. I love that. There is nothing more miserable than walking into a grimy gas station with a shitty clerk to top off your day.
The gas station is large, full of snacks and travel necessities, cold drinks… all the good stuff. Everything is organized, well-​stocked, and clean.
The gas prices are never astronomical, usually hard to beat, and there are numerous pumps, so there’s never a wait time to pump your gas. They have a nice set up for a car wash, and Quizno’s is in the same lot. There is even free WiFi.
It’s the kind of gas station for the kind of people who might be particular about their energy drinks, enjoy fresh brewed as opposed to stale cheap coffee, quick and friendly service. the kind of person who won’t settle for the gas station with the restroom outside that requires you to go inside for the key. it’s a classier establishment of sorts.
