Quik Stop

My favorite gas station– I’ll go way out of my way to come here. Always way cheaper than any other station and the have a large convenience store. There is often a wait for a pump because there are only 4 but if you care enough the wait usually isn’t more than 5 minutes.

CHEAP GAS!!! always fill up here after grabbing some mexican or Vietnamese food on Middlefield.

This place can be a real pain in the a$$ to get in and out of and with some really rude people that get gas there. Yes it dose have cheap most of the time but if you what to deal with people cutting in front of you or someone going in the store and not coming out till moons later then have fun.

Kroger Products!
Cheap gas!
Cheap hot dogs!
Ok, the layout of the pumps leave a lot to be desired. But the people in the shop have always been friendly.

As the other reviews say, come here for the cheapest gas in Redwood City and Menlo Park area. It’s not the highest quality, but the prices can’t be beat, and I’d be lying if I said I haven’t gone out my way before just to fill up here – especially in the days when gas was over $ 4.00 a gallon.
So how much are you willing to put up with for great gas prices?
1. Lines between 12pm-​10pm. You’ll usually have to wait in line if you want to get gas between these hours, and occasionally deal with an a-​hole who has no regard for aforementioned lines.
2. Getting leered at by creepy men. This doesn’t happen all the time, but it’s happened a few more times than it should. If you’re a young female pumping gas alone, be careful – you might as well have a neon target that reads, «Creepers, hit on me!» hanging over your head.
Then again, you’d be surprised at the things one could put up with for cheap gas…

Yup cheap gas — the main reason I drove here was to swap out my gas tank for my grill. Why doesn’t the Home Depot in E Palo Alto do this, grrrr.
It looks like a bit of a barrio, but was fast, friendly and cheap. And my grilled cornish hen thanks you for the gas refill :)

By far the cheapest gas in the Menlo Park area can be found here. The prices are even below Arco’s pricing! However the quality isn’t exactly up to Chevron or 76 standards, if you’re one that believe 91 Octane is all the same, then this place is for you.
Why three stars though? It would be two if it wasn’t for the exceptional pricing of gas. First off, if you get gas here at any ‘normal’ hour, let alone peak hours, there’s always a line to get in. This line is enhanced since there are only TWO pumps there. That’s a maximum of four cars total that can be pumping at one time, and heaven forbid if you turn in and your gas cap is on the wrong side of the pumps. There’s hardly any room to back out and make a U-​Turn. Also, pending on how full their tanks are the pumps can pump fairly slow (there has been signs of improvement though).
The area can be a bit spotty as it borders nice vs not so nice neighborhoods. I’ve seen people with nice cars pull up to add gas, then card that are beat up show up, and the nice cars leave w/​o even filling up. I haven’t experienced anything bad here, I think some people get a bit too paranoid.
The convenient store is loaded with snacks and such and some automotive fluids as well for emergency. There’s also a carry-​out Pizza Hut there that shares the same lot too.
