Gas Stations in Ocotillo, CA

“I would give five stars to the mini market. It has an amazing amount of stuff crammed into a relatively small area. The displays are clean and clearly marked. In addition to snacks and drinks, they have a good selection of automobile related items. A real plus are the bathrooms. This place has been expanded and they have several clean bathrooms that are available to anyone that drops in. To me, that's a real bonus and should be acknowledged. The one negative that people have associated with this Chevron is the price of the gasoline and diesel. It's typically a dollar more per gallon than you would find in already expensive San Diego. A lot of people coming from Arizona do not realize that there are TWO more gas stations up the grade, about 15 miles past this Chevron. Of those two gas stations/mini markets, one is a Chevron (apparently owned by the same owner that owns the one in Ocotillo) and the other is a Shell station. Both of theses stations have larger mini markets and the Shell has a subway (at least last time I dropped in). You will not save much, if anything, on gasoline, but these mini markets have a much larger selection.If you are just low on fuel and headed west, you will want to get gas either at the Chevron in Ocotillo or one of the two gas stations "up the hill." After that, it's 40 miles before the next gas station. If you're confident you have at least 40 miles in your tank, wait until you hit Alpine or El Cajon. The gas will be at least a dollar less per gallon than any of the aforementioned gas stations.”
