“This 76 station in Moss Landing is a convenient and easy place to stop while driving along the coast. The pumps are well maintained and the area feels safe and open. It is simple to pull in refuel and get back on the road without any delay. The prices are usually fair for the location and the small store has enough essentials for a quick break. Overall a reliable and practical stop.”

“Just brought my son and his friend to Castroville Chevron. We all ordered a double cheese burger with everything and an order of fries to share. I will not drive by this place without thinking of how delicious their burgers are. They don't have seating but the cook was kind enough to set a table out in the parking lot where we ate.”

“Great prices on gas and diesel, they have DEF additive available inside. A bit difficult to get in and out but I don't mind waiting for a good deal on fuel”
2347 San Miguel Canyon Rd, Salinas CA 93907
“Great prices, but always crowded and impossible to efficiently get in and out of the gas station. Constantly ends up backed up and boxed in, so don’t come here if you are in a hurry.”
69 Lee Rd, Watsonville CA 95076
“I needed to refuel my car and this Arco off Highway 101 in Watsonville did the trick. The prices were competitive. It was super easy to get to from the highway. It had over 10 gas pumps all under an awning. I sure appreciate that shade in the summer heat. There was a car wash as well. The outside pump area was clean and maintained. I don’t not know how old that s this Arco, but it looked relatively newish. Even better. Plus I had no hassles using the pump or otherwise. I didn’t go inside though. I suppose if I needed a refuel, it would do the trick. Also right next door, in its own separate building is a Starbucks. Those suckers seem to be all over the place. That too along with the Hampton Inn look like relatively new builds.”

“Omg I went there last Monday to get a gas for my car and I went inside of the store for the restroom since my family and I’ve been on a road for 3 hours. There are a lot of things inside the store. I was so amazed and the girlies who work there are the sweetest!!!!! Especially, Taly got me the thing I exactly needed at that time!!!”

“My tire sensor wasn’t working I took it here to Ferm’s and the attendant who helped me was really nice and wasn’t gonna charge me but I insisted he take the money for his troubles. I now go there all the time.”
11775 Merritt St, Castroville CA 95012
“This is a good gas station. I went here and was satisfied with my experience. This gas station is located on Castrovile’s main road, so it’s easy to access from Route 1. This gas station has four pumps. The two parking lanes for cars at the pump are parallel to the road. When I was here someone has their large F-150 parked at an outer gas pump, so I didn’t have enough room to squeeze through to the gas pump past it, so I had to enter the gas station through its entrance in the other side of the gas station. I gave this gas station four stars because while it is a nice gas station, the parking area for cars to pump their gas isn’t wide enough, so sometimes cars have to drive to the station’s other entrance.”
