I would drive further to come to this gas station because all of the staff are actually nice! Unlike the Valero on Ocean avenue. They are so rude! I asked two people if they can help me or show me how to use the air machine. One guy pretended he only spoke Chinese, so I spoke Chinese back to him lol then the other lied said he didn't know how to use it. For that I'll never give them business again! And they are right across from my gym. I'll drive all the way here for great customer service instead. And they have different flavor chips, queso salsa Cheetos!?

I have been going here for a couple of years now because Valero is considered a high tier gas and this station is one of the most reasonable priced gas stations in SF. Nice, right? But there is something that is super annoying that I would like to share with you. Apparently the owner does not want to hire 2 workers so they can cover each other's legally required break. So, everyday they close the office around 10 am, noon and 7pm for a 30 minute break. Unfortunately if you go at these times to fill up, you cannot get the "cash price discount" because they lock the office and won't accept your cash payment. Not sure if this is legal since they advertise a lower cash price, but refuse to honor it. So, it winds up costing you a lot more than the advertised price because you are forced to use a credit card to pay at the pump. It costs more to fill up your tank, than if you go across the street and purchased your gas at the Chevron station. A switch and bait, I think. Also, be aware that they change the price during the day based on expected demand at the particular time. What sneaky practices! Not so nice after all.

Hey gas is pretty cheap here for being in San Francisco on a major street. 19th x Judah is a major intersection. Like many stations in SF, space is a premium. So it's a little tight around the islands. A good driver can handle it.
Don't try and tow a boat in here.
There's a little shop with snacks.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Sara G.San Francisco, United States02Aug 27, 2023

The credit card readers on the pumps are working fine now. Just got gas there a week ago.

On the bright side, the gas prices here are the cheapest on 19th Avenue.

Many gas stations nearby but this place is always the cheapest, never had any issues; signage is clear if anything is out of order. Very clean facilities since the latest remodel and Don is always cool and courteous!

I commute 140 miles round trip a day. This station is my go to on gas. It's a great price. Don, the attendant, is awesome. He bust his ass everyday making sure the place is clean. Last time I was there (yesterday) the place smelled like Lysol. Incredibly important to know that I can go somewhere so responsible during these unnerving times. Definitely worth the visit.

First time writing a review for a gas station as I usually write reviews for food instead, but it's such a great gas station that I just have to. This gas station is newly taken over by Valero after switching hands a few times in the last year or so. Valero has completely revamped the place and made everything nice and new. The staff there are always pretty nice. In the first few weeks it was open, I went and saw a window squeegee that was a little broken and the guy just tossed it immediately and got a new one. It's also one of the cheapest prices you can get in the neighborhood. The only thing is that it can get a bit tight when you're trying to exit a particular direction but that's not the fault of the gas station due to space constraints. If I can't get to Costco in time, this is my go to gas station for sure.

These Valero locations all have card swipe readers at the pump but they always show the message "See cashier". Valero requires customers to pay inside which is inconvenient.
