Shell in San Luis Obispo (11590 Los Osos Valley Rd)

They trick you with their car wash for a reduced price on gas instead of paying cash vs debit

Great location

Okay

Convenient

The people running this place range from rude to dismissive but never friendly or kind. Maybe I’ve just been unlucky up to this point. I’ve almost had a fist fight with one of the guys. The store itself is like most little mini marts, the prices are abnormally high most of the time because of its central location, and the gas is usually leaps and bounds higher than Costco as a rule… but it is convenient on those days you ain’t got any options. I’m glad its there, but only as a last ditch. The little car wash is small and quick, but I can’t complain, i do like having it close by. Hope that helps a bit. Thanks.

Friendly staff. Higher gas prices than down the streets.

Friendly service

They give a cash discount

Since the two better priced Shell stations in slo are now "Speedway" (I don't know speedway gas and my car is brand picky ), this shell, the one down the street, and the one on tank farm, give you the options to pay ridiculously high prices per gallon or save 20 cents a gallon by buying a car wash ( $7-9 bucks) This car wash machine works better than the one down the street. Personally I'd rather wash my own car myself for fear the bristles of auto washes are scratching my car.

Car wash!!
