Shell

Best prices in the area! Keeps my car & wallet happy :). But with that, comes long lines… expect to wait a while to pump gas. One time, I caught some people yelling and fighting over a pump. I guess, this place can bring out the worst in people. Haha, try to come at odd hours of the day/​night! Layout of this station also isn’t the best.

This Asian middle age guy behind the counter is unbelievably rude. He’s name is Henry and when I asked him to double check my powerball ticket cuz the first time the machine didn’t read it, he yelled at me telling me go somewhere else and stop wasting his time. I am completely shock by his attitude since I asked him really nicely. What’s the problem with this miserable guy? Mid-​age crisis maybe !!! Shell should do something about it, it reflects their service very badly !

This gas station consistently has the least expensive prices for gas in the area. It’s also conveniently located right off the 57 freeway. The city location is not correct on Unilocal; I believe it’s located in Diamond Bar and not Walnut. I’ve been filling up here since 2000 and I still go here when I’m visiting my parents in Diamond Bar. Another plus is that there’s never a wait.

If you guys are familiar with the Fuel Network Rewards program, get on it! This station gets you the rewards AND if you pay cash it’s almost 10 cents cheaper per gallon. This gas station is typically the cheapest in the area and really easy access to the freeways. It’s not going to be as nice with the Mobil/McDonald’s next door, but it’s pretty clean cut and dry for a gas station.
The bathrooms and everything else are pretty standard. You can get In-​N-​Out next door if you fancy that over McDonald’s. Typical selection at the snack shop inside with cool beverages and fattening delights for your road trip.
Summary points: typical gas station, easy freeway access, IN-​N-​OUT, cheap gas, bring cash.

My favorite place to get gas! It seems to be the cheapest gas in this area… plus its competing with like 2 other gas stations, so they are all the same price. It just really depends on you and I choose shell hahah! It does get super crowded on certain times of the day… so best bet is to go either in the early morning or late late at night!

I almost feel like I’m being unnecessarily cruel to this station by giving it 2 stars, but I just wasn’t particularly impressed with almost any aspect of it.
The station is oddly designed and squished together, so you have to back away from the gas pumps to get out of the place and/​or almost drive down on the sidewalk to wiggle into a pumping spot.
In addition, the large marquee on the corner lists the cash price, but doesn’t mention that it’s a cash price. It was only once I pulled into the station that I saw the smaller A-​frame sign about 3 feet off the ground that listed the 15 cent surchange per gallon for using card. I didn’t like that — I felt cheated. In fact, I was planning on visiting the station on the opposite corner of the road (my GasBuddy app told me it was the cheapest), when the Shell marquee caught my eye. Too good to be true, as it turned out. I had no cash, so I ended up paying more after making a rather erratic driving maneuver just to get into the station.
I also filled up my tires here since it’s starting to cool off outside. The air/​water station is accessible, which was a positive, but the sign that mentions it’s complimentary was almost hidden, and I had to go inside to find out how to turn the machine on. Once inside, I was greeted by 2 somewhat depressed attendants, though they did give me the info I needed.
Organization of station: 2 stars
Attendants: 3 stars
Prices: 1 star for trickery
Air/​gas for free: 4 stars

Cheapest gas that I know anywhere in SoCal if you pay cash! For this reason there might be a line so I suggest you go early morning or late nights to fill up. Good thing it’s kinda by my house~!

Refueling machine has a problem is not the first time meet, inside card refueling line up to when I had a Chinese middle-​aged men.
Bad attitude, polite!!!
With attitude of discrimination and I also speak Chinese!!!
Busy at noon add bad mood!!!
Such environment, I won’t be choose SHELL!!!

IT’s a very busy station. the reason is that the price here is reasonable. However, there is always a pump not working.

Horrible service. Older attendant is always on the computer in the back room and makes you wait until you call him. And on some occasions, the door is left open but no one is inside. I’m surprised that place hasn’t had things stolen with the amount of times I’m waiting inside and the attendant is nowhere to be seen.
I waited over 10 minutes today and there was no attendant. I wasn’t going to pay 10 cents more because they weren’t there to take my money. I think they use their cheaper gas to an advantage and great people like they don’t exist. Management needs to change or retire the older guy.

Very packed and congested, but where I live it is the highest quality gas for the cheapest price.

This is my alternate place when I can’t get to Costco. There is a discount price for Cash, and this station is usually the cheapest.

While I prefer the station across the street, I really only stop into Shell when it is in the direction of my travel. Most of the time, I plan ahead so that the station across the street is in the direction of travel.
This station is cramped. There’s not really extra space to get your car around cars parked for fuel. As you know, real estate is key and when there is room to shuffle around, you have more options when it comes to selecting a pump.
This station also offers cash discounts for gas. I thought it would be worth my time to walk in and pay with cash. The three times I went to do that, I left thinking that they do not want to take my money (literally). The attendant seems to work slowly; and one the first occasion ignored me until he hung up his calendar. Which when you’re waiting for someone to slowly hang up a calendar, two minutes feels like ten hours.
This station is probably best experienced by gassing up with credit card and going.

the price at this station is relatively cheaper, cash though
but the service is quite poor. the old man behind the counter is usually playing on his computer, and pretends not to hear you, or nowhere to be found. he can be rude at times and give customers a bad attitude. Since then I go to the Chevron across the street, same price, better service

Go-​to place for gas, but oh my goodness, this Shell gives me anxiety lol.
This place is always poppin’… so many cars everywhere. I feel like I’m going to get into an accident every time I’m here. Also, put in your credit card with the magnetic strip facing the left side. I never put it in correctly and it takes forever to reset to the original screen.

This location has always been the cheapest around.
But since it’s so cheap, everyone and they mother, brother, grandmother come here in that order. Which in turn makes the place really crowded and creates a decently long wait after work. And since so many people come to this small gas station, they frequently have the humongoid tanker truck that blocks the road, blended with old Asian drivers, which makes it even harder to maneuver around :/

Herp derp.
Still the cheapest gas stations around the area.
Still super crowded.
Still has terribad quality pumps.
Still has craptacular window squeegees. And they don’t seem to change out the soap water very much either.
Still going to keep going here. SO CHEAP.

As many of the others said, this place has the lowest gas prices in town. It’s funny because drive a block and you’ll see a closed shell gas station right before the 605 NB that has the highest gas prices in town.
I come here all the time for my fill-​up. The problem is that after 5:00 and sometimes during the lunch hour this place can get pretty crowded. Because people are constantly backing in and backing out you can even sometimes get stuck at a service station because the person in front of you backed into the station in front of you and there are 4 people waiting behind you. It’s impossible. I don’t understand why gas stations don’t wise up to the way Costco organizes gas. It’s way easier.
Aside from that, there is a convenient subway that I would never recommend, nor would I recommend ever going into the convenient store. My guess is that that’s how they make the difference from the low price. Is by gouging you on chips and candy.
Secondly, this is the only gas station I know that cuts me off before my gas tank is full. They’ll actually fill it up ¾ of the tank and then stop. So I start up my engine, realize my tank isn’t completely full, then decide whether to wait another half hour to fill up or to go somewhere else to top off.

This gas station always have the lowest price in the area. I don’t know why I don’t get 509 miles full tank on 91 octane. Now I’m getting about 455 miles on full tank.
PROS:
* Lowest price
CONS:
* There customer service suck (if you don’t know how to manually input Ralph’s code. Employee will call you idiot and they won’t help you.)
* Never buy there candies because it’s a rip off. (they should wear ski mask)
* Long wait for gas

always have lower price compared to the two others
sometimes i dont get why you need 3 gas stations on the same intersection… i guess thats a prop to us. since they get competitive!
