Uptown Service Station

it is not fancy but the gas is the cheapest in the neighborhood and you can get 7 car washes for $ 20, you cannot beat that!

Cheapest gas in the north-​side!!!
The gas station is a bit seedy but that’s the customer base. I still don’t quite understand this neighborhood. On one side it’s the malt liquor festival every morning. I see 15 – 30 guys just drinking up their colt 45 for for breakfast. Then at lunch time I see the same guys walking around begging for money. I’m assuming so they can get malt liquor money for the next festival.
There is also Vietnamese town and allot of senior citizens facilities, It’s a weird fusion of people witch makes it fun. I would not mind living in the area and closer to work.

Beware!!! Do not go here. Car wash does not get your car very clean. My brand new 2 day old car had a little scuff & scratch mark surface damage from the wash. I filled out an incident report. 2 weeks later owner calls, I take car up and he looksa at my car & basically tells me to go screw myself.

**WARNING: DO NOT GO TO THIS GAS STATION/​CAR WASH**
Two days ago, I took my car, which is only 3 months old, to be washed at Uptown Service Station. It is a drive through car wash, and they manually towel dry the car.
I got it washed and went about my day. This morning while getting gas, just 48 hours later, I noticed a huge circular scratch on the hood of my car.
Again, my car is only 3 months old. I also park in a garage and have never had ice or snow on the car.
I know the scratch is from the guy that towel dried the car; it is in a circular motion, and it must have resulted from him having on some kind of jewelry that rubbed against the car as he wiped.
So, after work today, I went to the gas station to try to talk with the owner, Arri Weise. I was very kind and polite, and I explained the situation.
Immediately, the owner became rude and defensive. He denied any culpability, and he refused to take any blame. He tried to make excuses, saying it was my fault that there is a scratch, but I am 100% certain that there was no scratch before I went through the car wash.
I will be contacting the BBB and reporting this business. Not only did they scratch my car, but the owner could not have been more unprofessional and rude when I approached them about it.
Save yourself the heartache – and the money – and take your business elsewhere.

I only came here because I refuse to get gas at BP I have boycotted them since the leak in the Gulf of Mexico. I don’t really like coming here because it seems to be the place for cab drivers to get gas and their cramped cabs cleaned out. Gas is a few cents cheaper than some stations along Broadway Avenue. It’s maintained well, but still this is Uptown so you will find a few vagrants hanging around, but nothing out of the usual. If you’re looking for gas that’s a few cents cheaper than high priced BP come here instead.

Charged us $ 97.75 for a $ 9 car wash on our card. We noticed it immediately on the receipt and they claimed there was nothing they could do and could not cancel the charge, even after talking to the «boss» this was the best they could come up with. Talked to the credit card company and confirmed that this was obviously not true, now will have to wait for the transaction to post and then dispute the charge. On top of it all, they never applied the rain X we paid for and the very friendly guy who wiped the car dry apparently «accidentally» gave us the wrong change when we were trying to tip him. Avoid this place!

This place has been around for ever! It looks dank and depressing, but being an uptown native for my entire life, it is my go to gas station. It’s a gas station so there’s not much to say about that.

$ 35 detail — full shampoo, washed inside and out, even under the hood. Cash only.
Not the classiest joint but you can’t beat that price. Be prepared to drop your car off and wait. At times, they have said it’ll be 2 – 4 hours until they finish. It’s a small place and totally worth it. Grab a sandwich on Argyle.
Gas is usually a few cents cheaper here too.

Worst car wash I have ever had! I paid the $ 3.75 to go through the drive-​thru car wash. That was fine, no different than any other drive-​thru. I asked for the $ 4 cleaning of inside my car. The guy kept saying he didn’t speak English, so I had to demonstrate what I wanted. I then had to give 75 cents two times so he could vacumn the inside of my car. I thought that was a joke, so I went inside and asked. The guy was a jerk and acted like I was the crazy one for asking. The guy barely cleaned the inside of my car. I am going to have to take my car somewhere else. I will NEVER go back here! What a waste of $ 10.25! I could have cleaned it much better in the time it took and spent no money.

Taxis flock to this place. They offer a car wash for $ 3 and have all that you need for the inside of your car to be spic and span. They have vacuums and sell wipe cloths for the interior.
