Lafayette 76

Ludicrously overpriced. Taking advantage of people who are willing to pay. Leave Lafayette before you get gas. Avoid this place like the plague.

better than california smog down the street at 3500

This gas station is dirty and pricey. There are spider webs all over the pump station. Try cleaning couple times during the week!

Vlad runs a misleading business. They offer a $ 19.99 oil change special in the local paper. This includes filter and up to 5 quarts of oil and a «bumper to bumper safety inspection».
So I go in, drop off my Dodge Caravan minivan. When I return to pick it up, I’m told the total is $ 32. I show Vlad the coupon and he says the total is $ 32 (CASH) after coupon discount. I said I’m pretty good at numbers and $ 32 isn’t $ 19.99 even after adding tax.
Vlad says Van’s are extra, I ask why. He says they take more fluids. I pointed out the coupon states up to 5 quarts of oil. I remind him this vehicle takes 4.8 quarts even after replacing the filter. He gets indignant and says this is the price.
I said if he insists I pay this inflated price that he will not get my future business. He replied that he is the most honest business in town (my experience has proven different).
It amazes me how a business will spend money to advertise a special to draw in new customers and when a new customer comes in, they alienate them.
In addition, when I returned home I noticed one tire was low, so I checked the pressure all around and each tire has a different (low) reading. Then I notice one of the tires is showing wear. This tells me they didn’t perform the safety inspection as advertised!
I’m grateful to have had to pay a relatively low price to learn they are substandard and dishonest as opposed to bringing them a larger job and really get gouged.
Avoid this business!

Clean & Curtious —
Prices a bit higher than other nearby stations, but that’s what u pay for convenience

The repair shop will try to save you money if they can and will work with you and be flexible to try and help get your car to the shop. If they can’t figure a way to save you $, the prices are about standard and typical, so if it’s close to you, then save gas and take it by to see what they say. Parking is okay, a little tight but they try to find a space for your car day or night.

I just got a smog check done there!
Great service.
I will definitely go back for my next smog check

Clean, easy-​access and close to work. No complaints here, except like all Lafayette gas stations it’s pricey!

Just wanted to mention that there is a Blue Rhino propane exchange here.

Before lafayette began to modernize it’s downtown, lafayette had fairly cheap gas prices. (way before whole foods). this station even had diesel prices cheaper then oaktown! today, lafyettee’s gas prices are easily 20 cents higher than elsewhere and the diesel prices .30 cent higher.
maybe there were worried that trucks would inadvertantly bump into things at the station. more likely though that the sunday drivers were scared stiff of the big trucks fueling here and were staying away.
to draw the average driver back, they had to raise the diesel prices to discourage trucks from fueling up here. still a nice and clean looking station though.
the cashiers were mostly courteous and curious.
