“The food mart guy is an awesome, witty, and a great human-being. He helped me couple times, when I needed help. He’s very kind, friendly, humble and I wish all store managers were like him”
108 Bellam Blvd, San Rafael CA 94901
“Easy in, easy out. Straightforward and friendly. $65 out the door. There were cheaper options with coupons but this is just clean and straight forward. They were upfront about the price when I called. Showed up, gave them the key, took a short walk and it was ready when I was back in 15 minutes.”
789 Redwood Hwy, Mill Valley CA 94941
“Cheapest gas prices in the area. I always try to time my fill ups to stop by here when I'm driving to SF. Often there is a short wait. Convenient immediately off the freeway as you're driving south 101. Because it's so popular, sometimes it can be a little nuts. I have more than once witnessed people block the other cars either by parking in the middle lane or just sitting in their cars in the one way lanes without actually pumping gas. Also have issues with the fact that the pumps don't seal properly, so I can't lock it to continuously fill - I have to stand there and hold it. This is the only gas station I have been to with this issue.”
98 Sir Francis Drake Blvd, San Anselmo CA 94960
“Another amazing experience at Fara’s. These guys are simply the best. Efficient, honest and the friendliest service you can get. I will continue to take our vehicles here as long as I live around the area!”
5700 Nave Dr, Novato CA 94949
“Gas station is clean and fairly convenient off freeway, long hoses so you can fill up on both sides plenty of diesel, no line, and you can use your Safeway or $.10 off if you have them. 4 stars because if you call in, they won’t quote you the gas price over the phone, stating “it’s Safeway‘s policy not to do so”. If I pick up the phone and call your business why withhold information, that’s ridiculous.”
1401 Second St, San Rafael CA 94901
“Excellent customer service! I had my car smogged here earlier this year and just picked it up after an oil change. I made an appointment for both services and they were fast and efficient. Competitive pricing for Marin. Thank you, Tony!”
251 CA-1, Mill Valley CA 94941
“Exceptional customer service. Special thanks to Graciela, you saved our vacation! It's also very friendly and cheap fuel is available here. If you drive on PCH or Highway 1, make sure to stop here! Great - thank you again ? Greetings Dirk”
700 Tamalpais Dr, Corte Madera CA 94925
“Our daughter got a flat tire near this service station and the nicest man came over from the station and offered to help her change the tire. I believe his name is Osama. He took the tire off and discovered a nail and gave us a very reasonable quote for a new tire. The tire was changed in an hour! Excellent service. So we decided to get my Camry's 5K maintenance serviced here and are very happy with the job and the price. Yay, we've found our new service station!”
475 3rd St, San Rafael CA 94901
“I have been going to this gas station for years now. Recently they changed from Valero to Gulf. One of the best gas prices around! It’s always clean and the manager and employees give great service! Definitely recommend!”
375 Ignacio Blvd, Novato CA 94949
“What's to Say? It's a gas station, They have gas and Snacks. They take EBT And are open 24/7. Don't miss out and skip this circle-K san rafael landmark. ?”
108 Bellam Blvd, San Rafael CA 94901
“If you want quick, efficient and excellent service, this is the place for you. This is not a quick impression; I’ve had cars smogged here for years. DMV communications are done lightning fast and accurately.”
90 Madera Blvd, Corte Madera CA 94925
“The Chevron station was clean and had a nice environment, but the restroom was out of toilet paper. When I informed the cashier, they didn’t seem attentive and were a bit rude. A little more customer care would make this a great place to stop. Hope this feedback helps for future improvements.”
250 Tiburon Blvd, Belvedere Tiburon CA 94920
“I don't know why, but I think gas station recommendations are just as/if not more important than restaurant recommendations. No, they're not sexy. And they're not very photo-worthy. But let's face it - we spend so much time in our cars, and everyone needs a gas station at least once every week or two. Since cars are the bane our of our Bay Area existence, doesn't it make sense to know the right place to refuel? That's why I want to give props to this Tiburon Unocal station. Here's what I like: - It's only a mile from where I live. - there's never a long line - It's clean - the gas is never overpriced - they have pumps if your tires need air - they have a compact convenience store for beverages, snacks, smokes, and other basic needs. - they also have bins where you can donate clothes to non-profits. So if you're in the Mill Valley/Tiburon area and you need to refuel (and maybe donate some old clothes/shoes), this Unocal station is your best bet. And then cross the street to Peets Coffee and reward yourself with a cappuccino.”
340 Miller Ave, Mill Valley CA 94941
“Price was relatively competitive in Chevron standards. Space was wide open for an urgent “pull-off” phone call I needed to make before getting gas. After the call, I filled up harmoniously.?”
1401 Second St, San Rafael CA 94901
“Excellent choice for honest and knowledgeable service on your German car. Don’t let the fact it is in a 76 station put you off — there’s a well-regarded Ferrari service shop in SF in a 76 station.”
1549 S Novato Blvd, Novato CA 94947
“Review for Chevron Gas Station – 1549 S Novato Blvd, Novato, CA I’ve been to a lot of air stations around Novato and have often found that the pumps don’t work correctly, causing more air to escape from my tires rather than filling them up. However, when I visited this Chevron location, I was able to get an accurate reading and fill my tires without any issues. The air sensor on my car turned off as expected, and I was done in no time. I would absolutely recommend this station if you need reliable air for your car tires! 3/19/25”

“This was right outside of Yosemite, why San Anselmo, don't know why. Thank goodness this station was right outside the Yosemite Lodge on the way home. Kept clean, nice bathrooms and a snack place. Gas was a bit expensive, but they have you there. Nice to get some snacks and drinks after a long day.”

“why is this place so lowly rated. gas is super cheap and they only take credit. no cash. God bless America. they're not trying to rip you off for using your credit card. in one of the most expensive counties in the Bay Area, the gas is the cheapest. who knew.”
921 Del Presidio Blvd, San Rafael CA 94903
“Very impressive car wash crew. We had a great experience here. The car was just completely covered in bugs from a road trip and they spent so much time cleaning before the wash and then drying afterwards, using air cans to get stuff out of the nooks and crannies even, really great wash. Friendly and efficient crew. And it’s a touch less wash in the machine.”
1515 Second St, San Rafael CA 94901
“I bumped into an owner who helped me with a well priced wash for my RV. Great shop inside that I really enjoyed their selection of yummies and of all things books!”
22 Rowland Way, Novato CA 94947
“Smaller establishment. Two single person bathrooms. Taco Bell next door. Movie theater on other side, next door. Not too many actual parking spots. Might have to get creative.”

“Sure gas isn't the cheapest, but they're conveniently located at the intersection on Lincoln and Ritter and second near the highway by the bus station. Pay at the pump or go see the lady inside to pay for fuel. Masks required. Shares a building with a mechanic if you need it.”

Read the postLove's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees. Picture this: Three big screens in each restaurant, tracking how fast workers greet customers, take orders, and hand out food. It's not just for show - early results say it's making service 11 seconds faster on average. "These monitors track key performance metrics in real-time, such as greet times, order processing times and the time it takes for food handoff," Love's explains. The system creates a more interactive environment, fostering friendly competition between stores.
