I couldn’t disagree more really, I find this one of the most irritating petrol stations in Cardiff. Its got the most annoying layout i’ve seen and there always seems to be at least one pump not working. They just have one pump instead of the more common 2 pump lay out, and there are always cues because people fill up their cars and then spend 20 minutes in the bloody shop while you sit and wait! Yes there are car parking spaces for people who need to pick up some bits but you always get those who don’t! Price wise it used to be the cheapest in town, its not anymore. I guess they have finally realised that being the first station off the M4 or the last before the M4 rip off stations they are going to get people in. Finally its on a busy crossroads and even getting in and out is a hassle! Oh yeah and there are none of those nice easy pay at pump points to make it quicker either!

I feel slightly weird reviewing a petrol station, however I can honestly say that the Tesco express filling station on Tyn-Y-Parc Road is the best petrol station in Cardiff(so surely that in itself means it’s worthy of a review). There are plenty of pumps, and the petrol is not usually too expensive(in comparison to other stations in Cardiff) and very rarely runs out. On the downside though, there are very often queues, due no doubt to this stations prime location. What really impresses me though about this place is the Tesco express attached to it. For a filling station this grocery store is rather large(much bigger than my local Tescos), and has a massive selection of magazines, fresh, and frozen food. It wouldn’t surprise me if people were able to do their weekly shop here(a slight exaggeration perhaps, but you never know).

This is really more of a petrol station with a shop attached than a supermarket. For the petrol, I give it 5 stars as they always seem to be the cheapest in the area. For the store, it’s only 3 stars. The food product range is limited and the prices are much dearer than in Tesco’s larger stores. The staff seem willing to help, but they tend to be quite young and there seems to be quite a bit of staff turnover. There always seem to be new faces when I go in, so there is no attempt to build rapport with regular customers. Most customers are only buying add-ons to go with their petrol. I certainly wouldn’t choose to do any serious grocery shopping here.
