Union 76 At Fishermans Wharf

Not a gas station to go too. Mechanic was rude.
Gas station pump was being serviced there was no signs around to indicate the pumps were being serviced. Was filling up my car and the mechanic came out yelling don’t you know that the pumps are being serviced.

Union 76 at Fisherman’s Wharf seems to be a service station which is committed to good service. I looked up local service stations on the internet yesterday to find help for a low tire indicator warning. Philip answered, and told me I could come down right away, even though it was near closing time, or, if I preferred, I could come the next day. I live just 4 blocks away, and was there in 5 minutes. Matt checked all 4 tires, which turned out to be low, and inflated them. He made sure the warning light was gone, and the problem fixed before I left. I found him to be kind, cordial, friendly, and, he didn’t even charge me for his time. When I asked him about what other service I might need for my car, which is seldom driven and has extremely low mileage, he was honest and low key. There was no attempt to sell services that I don’t need, unlike experiences that I have had at various dealerships over the years. As I was leaving, he was helping another lady who drove up without an appointment at this late hour due to what sounded like a windshield wiper issue. What can I say? The place has good vibes.

The atm said it dispensed money but didn’t and the man running this place very rudely dismissed me and told me to call the atm ppl. I asked if he could help and he said go.

I felt well-​taken care of by honest and hard-​working mechanic Philip, at the Union 76 Fisherman’s Wharf location. Highly recommended for auto service.
Philip was so helpful and straightforward, and he works late — I got a flat tire and rolled in around 6:30pm, and he was there helping out some other stranded travelers. He says he’s normally there until around 7pm which is amazing.
I saw him try hard to refuse the big tip another customer tried to give him — she only got him to take it by tossing it on the ground where he was squatting, looking at my tire.
He called me when he said he would, and his price for a new tire and labor was extremely reasonable.

I have never received such exceptional service from a mechanic/​owner in my 30 years in driving. I trust PHILLIP LEW of 76/​Bay St in SF implicitly with my car (Mazda Miata, a make/​brand he happens to know a lot about). He is honest, has integrity, and gives me confidence in knowing my car will be taken care of as if it was his own, even replacing a fuse for free (when any other mechanic might have said it was the «starter» or the «engine,» etc and charged me hundreds of dollars). So many reasons I have continued to go here for over a decade and will continue to do so.

I visited the gas station for a second time tonight to put a few bucks in the Prius to ensure my husband makes it to the South Bay in the morning without having to stop for gas on the way there. This will be the last time I pay (too much) for gas here — as this was the second time that I put in money ($ 10 = 2.5 gallons), and the gas indicator in the car did not move! $ 10 for a Prius is at least a fourth of a tank (if not a third), so for the needle to not move one bar (again) makes me question the tanks at this place. This also happened the first time, but I may have overlooked it as I just didn’t put enough gas in because I only put in a few bucks. Now I think it’s them. Beware and try to find gas somewhere else, preferably outside of the city if you can make it.

Its pretty expensive, i guess since it is in the middle of everything.
But OMG their restroom was not clean at all. I went their because I just could not hold it anymore or else i would have gone somewhere else.
Room improvement.
Good thing they have a repair shop on the side just in case something happens with the car

gas is a dollar more per gallon than anywhere in the city. i don’t care if it is near pier 39. that should be illegal.

Not a gas station to go too. Mechanic was rude and not helpful.

A tight knit group of lazy mechanics «work» here. I won’t go blow for blow on the details but they are lucky I took my medication that day or else there would have been an altercation.
If you are in distress with your car or tire, map somewhere else to go or call your insurance. You might even get better help from a bum at the wharf than from this band of incapables.

It’s a gas station — and its easy to get in and fill your tank.
So its A-​OK.

Super friendly staff, and great, fast, service… def recommend

I live in the neighborhood, and had a nail in one of my tires. Fortunately, it was a slow enough leak that I could go down to the Fisherman’s Wharf 76 station to get it fixed. He not only fixed the tire for $ 20, but took the car around the block to clear the warning light for the low pressure, and then he noticed that one of the rear light bulbs was out (a warning light was on for that). He fixed that one as well, for free!
I’ve had a few other minor services from this place, and always found them helpful and well priced for service.

If you are desperate for gas this is the only gas station in the area. If you don’t want to sell one of your children for the gas buy it somewhere else.

Apes throwing shit are more helpful.
Supposed service station with bloated fuel prices.
Broken air machine left my low tire still low. When I asked if I could get some air from inside the station and was refused — our relationship took a hard turn.
Not knowing where the next gas station is locally, highlighted the lack of community and rendered this station even more shite.
If you need a total lack of service at Manhattan prices — this crew hooks it up.

This is real «service» station. The «Gas station» is separate from the service area, completely separate! I live in the neighborhood and Philip, the owner (of the service area) grew up in the area and is always honest and has prices that are affordable. The only time I have bought gas here is because I forgot to fill up when I was in the Mission or the Excelsior districts! If you live in the area and need an honest mechanic that is also a very nice guy, then this is the spot. If you buy gas here, that’s your problem. The gas prices are set for the tourists, figure it out! When I was growing up, and there were a ton of gas stations at the Wharf, they were all very overpriced. These days, this is the «only show in town» for gas in the area and they know it! Wise up, caveat whatever…

This review is solely based on my experience as a driver looking to fill up my gas tank, therefore this should not affect your decision on looking into their service station, which usually looks pretty busy and has some good reviews on here about it.
About my experience on filling up the gas tank, it’s pretty simple. The worker at the cashier is nice, just doing their job. The real downside to this place is just the very high gas prices compared to other locations. Expect to pay $ 0.15−0.25 more per gallon at this location and for air $ 0.75 if you don’t buy gas. For emergencies when I’m low on gas, there’s not many other stations around and this is your only option within the area.
On the bright side, it’s one of the few gas stations with close to no pan handlers and if your in the mood a Starbucks right across from it and a cost plus store neighboring it.

We’ve been taking our cars here to Philip and Matt for nearly 20 years. These guys are as good as it gets — honest, reasonable, reliable and treat you like family. We’ve taken every type of car to them (vans, SUVs, sedans, you name it). And they know I’m piling four kids into my car wherever I go, and I feel safe knowing they’ve just checked out the car before any trek.

75 cents for air?
Would it really hurt to give a gal on her way to work free air for her bicycle tires?
This gal will be taking her bicycle to the Chevron on Lombard & Laguna, where the skies are blue and air is F-​R-​E-​E!

These guys are great! I live up the street and came here after my 98 Volvo got a flat tire. They had a tire in stock and changed it almost immediately. The prices were very reasonable – definitely not worth trekking across town to go to Costco instead! Moreover, the guy helping me noticed that I was missing two hubcaps. He disappeared into the back and came out with 3 IDENTICAL hubcaps – a big deal considering Volvo hasn’t made those hubcaps for years. Another customer had left them with him after a losing a hubcap and deciding to get a whole new set. He put two on and gave me the remaining one as a «spare» (since clearly I’m prone to losing hubcaps.) All of this was done with no extra cost to me. I left with a new tire and three hubcaps for less than $ 100. Awesome, friendly service, very inexpensive… I am definitely going back!
