Petrol Gas & Stopping Center

Had to stop here as an emergency and this company was SO great, I would recommend them to anyone! I needed help with my tires and I offered to pay and they were so kind and told me not to worry about it! The workers names were Pilar and Jorge! They were at Petro Site #327. I HIGHLY recommend that you go there!!! So thankful for the wonderful work they did!

Best clean upgraded women’s bathroom w many automatic stalls. Best on the 5!!!
They also have a large selection of cold beverages, some ice cream, etc.

I have to say that this is one of the best truck stops I e been too. It’s has lots of amenities, showers, laundry, gym. No free wifi and the paid wifi sucks

This review is only regarding the Iron Skillet diner. We were stuck because of the mudslide closures and had to go here… In hindsight we should have risked starvation. The buffet was the most disgusting slop I have ever personally experienced. I could truly not stomach more than one bite of anything there. My son ordered off the menu and waited nearly an hour for questionable French Toast and runny, bland scrambled eggs. The service was horrible and rude, it was filthy and clearly they knew we were all stuck and couldn’t leave. No one cares when I complained. The cashier smiled like it was funny. Never eat here, never eat here… if it is an emergency leave your car and walk somewhere else.

Clean store. Clean bathrooms. And excellent showers. All employees that I talk to are very nice and helpful you don’t really get that anymore. One employee her name is Shelby is the nicest one of all thank you for the wonderful experience

So these places are built so that you get off the freeway — get your gas and snacks — and get back on the freeway, right??? Yeah — unless you are silly enough to pay with cash (as we do). After cleaning windshields, going to the bathroom, and pumping gas… we had to wait 15 minutes because they were closing out a drawer — counting it out (and I swear the person had to use her fingers to count the money) and could not process any change until that count was complete. Even tho there was already a drawer in use because they were selling things left and right. Never again!

Got some good items for a quick snack and pretty stocked on supplies. Great menu of selections & great breakfast selection, beverages and also sweets.

Just needed to get diesel fuel have a trailer easy access with pick up truck and trailer very friendly staff helpful the store has a good assortment of items and a Subway restaurant the restrooms where the cleanest since Stockton if you stop in Tejon this is the place to go!!!

Honestly one of the cleanest, best maintained public bathrooms I’ve used! They tend to decorate it for different holidays and seasons and it always seems clean and doesn’t have that icky smell I’m always afraid of when using public facilities. They’re right in the middle of a bunch of other food places like Subway, In n out, Starbucks, chipotle etc. We always stop here before going on the grapevine and further south.

I gave it 4 stars because the nice lady at the counter didn’t charge me for a cup of ice. Thank you nice lady. They also had clean bathrooms.

I’ve decided that on our trips to visit my sis or any trip up the 5 freeway longer than 4 hours, this will be our pit stop, especially if we have the puppy with us. This is by far the best gas station convenience store I’ve ever been to… and I’ve been to some doozies!
The bathroom is super clean, even decorated for the seasons, it smells good and is fully stocked. They have a great selection of everything you could possibly need on your trip, although all I’ve ever bought was ice cream for my kid, and water. They even have what I imagine are locally made dried fruits and trail mixes.
There’s a grassy pet area with poop bags and a trash and that is very helpful/​useful.
The employees are very friendly and there’s just an all-​around good vibe in the place.
Like I said, this is our stop there and back from now on!

I stop here when I travel between social and the central valley. I stop here EVERY time without fail. It is great. Everything is super clean and they have plenty of food choices and super clean restrooms. Much better than your average truck stop.

Never done this for a gas station but I will bookmark this place as THE gas station and shop I will stop at from now on with my bi-​monthly trips from NorCal to SoCal. LOVE!!!
SUPER CUTE BATHROOMS! After a really long drive and general traveling, it was SO nice to be greeted with a cheerful and cute bathroom… inspiring actually that anyone would go the extra mile to create a welcoming place that was relevant to the upcoming holiday: Valentine’s.
Made me feel so happy that I made sure to pick up any trash that I saw on my way back to the car. I also felt compelled to look around the store to see if I could support the local economy by buying any specialty food they may have. I extra appreciate and respect the staff and the owners.

Very clean restrooms!
Located two exits before going up the grapevine. This is always our go-​to stop before going into LA. Good place to stretch your legs too.
There’s a Wendys, Baskin Robbins, and the Petro Store. Friendly and helpful employees.

The place to stop on the 5. Friendly people, everything is always clean. Lots of places to choose from to eat, from mcds to chipotle.

Cleanest ladies restroom I have ever been in… and decorated, too! Great stop before hitting the Grapevine. We only used it for gas and bathrooms, but it was close to a lot of other food places so conveniently located. Definitely a good pit stop.

If you’re traveling the grapevine north or south, this is the place to stop.
I stop here for everything — gas, food, and restrooms. They even have a hotel nearby. It is also the safest place to stop. It’s huge, well lit, and near a CHP station. There’s no danger here. Also, there are so many food choices. The center itself is well stocked and has CLEAN restrooms. I’ve never been disappointed.
Staff here is very friendly and accommodating. They are always cleaning and stocking this place. Ive never noticed anything out of place and I appreciate that on my road trips.

Cleanest. Convenience. Store. Restroom. EVER. And it’s HUGE. Pretty pictures on the wall, fake flower arrangement on the counter.
Will make this our go-​to stop when traveling to/​from SoCal.

Like every other reviewer, it’s a great place for a pit stop to fuel on gas, grub and bathroom before hitting the Grapevine and headed in LA! There is everything here, very unexpected.
There’s a McDonalds, Starbucks, Wendy’s, Yogurtland, Iron Skillet, Subway, Baskin Robbins, Subway, Chevron, Panda Express, Del Taco, Chipotle, and In and Out!
It’s better than being in San Leandro, there’s way more stores and food here. All the fast food that I love and crave in one place within SHORT walking distance! Lots of gas and parking and fresh air, places to sit, places to pee. It’s got everything all in a bundle.
Remember to stop by before hitting the Grapevine, especially if you’re having a food and coffee calling.
It’s also extremely clean here which is a super plus!

Umm I don’t know about the «fancy hotel» comment, but I will agree that this is the best and biggest rest stop on the 5. Driving from LA to SF we always stop here and fuel our car and bellies.
Lots of options to choose from on both sides of the freeway, mostly fast food of course. Thank goodness for Subway (theres 4 of them!) and Chipotle for the health conscious like myself!
