Shell

Car wash payment system is broken. No signs indicate that you cannot pay at the automated machine.

Berryessa shell, gasoline prices are great, but I noticed a suspicious activity on attendant with a name tag. Elias, WE paid for the gas and soda .
HE put the money on the side by the phone. Instead to put in the cash register
HE also give away carwash free tickets, by telling customers to sign a Re-​print, receipts
Them he print a new code receipt.
Also noticed he didn’t ask for ID some young people (when purchasing cigarettes)
HE is rude to customers,
Also when a customer forgot their credit card on the pump He pick up then use for his own in Fremont gas stations, he had access to reprint receipts.
He looks llike he is not happy working
and is been telling the customers that he wants to sue shell, because they cut his hour’s.
We as customers ‚
WE DON’T NEED TO KNOW HIS PERSONAL PROBLEMS.

This Shell location seems bigger than most. I was in the area and noticed they have a car wash, so I decided to pull in and get a car wash here! I went inside to purchase a code for the car wash — apparently you need to purchase gas or else they charge you an extra $ 1 for the car wash. But the man at the register was very nice and didn’t charge me the extra $ 1 cause I didn’t need any gas, so that made me happy: D Car wash price ranges from $ 6 to $ 10 depending on how clean you want it (refer to the photo). Anyways, went back in my car and pulled over to the car wash entrance — was kind of surprised there were so many cars! There was two car in front of me and another two cars behind me, but the wait wasn’t too long since I wasn’t in a rush or anything. Well the car wash was quick and easy — enter the code, drive up until the light turns red and just put your car in park and relax until it’s alll done :) The exterior of my car is all clean now! Yay for clean car :)

this review is based on today with the cashier PRIYA! jesus ol’ mighty. you PRIYA are the bloody slowest fucking cashier in the world. i understand if you’re new but DO NOT, i repeat DO NOT put her on the register during peak hours. i came in right after work around 530 today to fill my car up and its her. NEW. its the first time I’ve ever seen her here and i’m a regular because i live down the street. it was 5 people deep already and she was talking her fucking precious ass time putting in whatever she has to put in to start pumping gas. with her fucking turtle speed, the line is now 15 deep. waiting NOT patiently but irritably. finally my turn! i tell her $ 30 on pump #14 and i have an FR card she asks me #14? i say yes ONE FOUR. FOURTEEN. then she says credit or debit? bitch did you not hear me? i said $ 30 and its laying right in front of your damn counter. dear lord please help me. i repeat myself again. $ 30 number FOURTEEN. ONE FOUR. and again she’s pushing credit or debit. WHAT THE FUCK. she finally changed it and took my money. i made sure to ask did you use my FR card and triple check when i went to pump my gas.
sadly i had to return because my car didn’t take all that i put it. i stood in line again waiting for it to be my turn. i have no idea how long people were waiting but it was like looking in the mirror at my first experience with PRIYA. pissed off faces. people sighing and grunting. pacing around the small ass shop … you name it. i’m next just one more man. he wants to buy a rockstar and tobacco. he doesn’t want to wait anymore so by the time she scans his first item, he already slid his card to finish this transaction … then minutes and i really mean MINUTES later she says ID please. GASP! ID please?! look up lady, this man is well over 50 years old. there is no need to card him. he himself says are you serious … look at me, you need to see my ID?! what a fucking joke. i don’t even want to get into my experience again because this thing is already long.
but hey SHELL on BERRYESSA … hire better workers OR if you plan on keeping or hiring people like this … don’t put them on the register during peak hours. this is the silicon valley … everyone is always in a rush to go somewhere or be somewhere. nobody has time to be stuck in a damn gas station for more than 10 minutes!

Don’t expect any service levels. There is guy name Elias always hassled and rude. Rest staff is good

This gas station is well lit and is cheaper than the Chevron across the street. There is the occasional panhandling (and apparently more people drive up to the gas station without wallet these days) but I guess where you are in San Jose or the seedier parts of SF this goes with the territory now.
The one problem I have is that the nozzles are old and not easy to handle. The worst part is that from time to time the pump automatically shuts off way before the tank gets filled. I tried different stations there and station 4 is the worst offender — and coincidentally is always the slot that is available.

Some level of auto car wash achieved. If u are looking to go straight into the car wash without cash u would be disappointed. If u want to use card use at the pump. The machine has only cash acceptance to it. Overall the pump is good and decent enough.

I came here for a carwash but the carwash wasn’t working properly. I went inside to explain but a female attendant was complaining that it worked. After her investigation I had to get another carwash. While waiting I went to restroom and found a marijuana blunt. Maybe this is used as poppurri to freshen the bathroom between breaks.

Clean and safe gas station with a mechanized car wash. The Shell seems easier to navigate compared to the Chevron across the street and I love thier selections of drinks outside of the actual store. They also have Ben and Jerry’s ice cream in case you have an emergency pregnancy craving.

Nearby my home, clean and lots of pumps. Little more expensive then Arco and Valero station near by.

I like going here they always have the best prices in this area from a customer service very clean at all times easy to find a gas pump.
They offer water and air for your tires at a small fee.
Oscar snacks and drinks inside that cash register area and ice.

My god, the prices are horrible, to expensive. How come people? Why do you race that prices while next has station from you cheaper for almost a dollar?

This Shell station is the only gas station in a 2 – 3 mile radius that offers a car wash. Lately, their prices have been 15 – 18 cents cheaper than the Chevron directly across the street (can’t figure out why!)
The paper towels are always full stocked here.
The car wash is open late here. The last time I went it was 10pm.

cheap

I love going to this gas station!
Always, always, always clean.
Usually cheap in comparison to the other gas stations in the area.

I always go to this Shell, just because it’s right next to my house.
1. Clean and machines are always in order
2. Takes credit, debit, and cash.
3. Little market to buy snacks
4. Next to starbucks, Taqueria, 711, King Egg Rolls, and 680 and 101 freeways.
5. Never had to wait in line to get gas
6. Chosen over Chevron across the street
7. Car Wash services

Good gas. There used to be a Vietnamese lady that worked there during the day, she was really nice and back then, I ran Track and Field and I came here to buy 14 pounds of ice for a horrifying ice bath for my sore muscles. She was so nice and even gets the ice ready for me and just accepts my flat $ 2 or $ 3, no cents.
So nice to a high school student even though there are a lot of jerks (students) who come in and try to shoplift or hang around outside…

Now my local gas up stop.
No problems here, prices are going down nationwide so I can’t complain. Last stop came in to gas and grab some powerade before my hike up Mission Peak. 2 for $ 3, can’t complain there.
Also big ups for having a clean squeegee!

This is where I go if I want a quick car wash during my lunch break. Although, sometimes, I’m not really happy when it comes to checking the rims of my tires because the rubber washer somehow does not really clean it well. Dust still sits on the rims. I guess manual car wash is still the best (I’m loyal to Auto Pride Car Wash for that), but if it’s a quickie, this is the place I go. $ 10 is $ 10 as long as my windows are all clean and clear, I am happy. (But not happy with those birds pooping everywhere afterwards! LOL) I like that this place is conveniently located near where I work and where I normally buy lunch food. Gas price is not bad either, but since I’m a Costco member, I try to use Costco’s cheap gas which is near as well. This review is only for their car wash.

I like this location because it is as cheap as the Shell on Capital Ave and Hostetter, but without the crazy lines. Sometimes it is $.01 more or less than the Chevron across the street. That determines whether I get Chevron or Shell that week.
The bf brought his car to get it washed at the drive-​thru machine. It was average, he still had some bird shit on his windows. It works for him cause he doesn’t care much about the appearance of his car.
