Arco Gas Station Redwood City on Whipple and Veteran Ave.
Has enough pumps to accommodate many vehicles at the same time. I don't think I've ever had to wait to access a pump.
Open 24 Hrs I've never felt unsafe and the snacks, drinks Coffee are good, it could be a bit better with hot food, however earlier in the day may have that, by the time I get there it seems to be sparse. That goes for the pastries and or donuts which are not consistent but by chance I've been successful. The large fountain drinks are great and well priced I'm partial to the Horchata very good super big, but it is a high sugar drink and does affect my Sugar levels so be aware if that's an issue.
The location is great as there are many excellent businesses nearby, such as The Goodnight Inn, an affordable comfortable motel with free excellent coffee
Next to the Inn is a really interesting and fun activity for artists or just to walk around collecting free fire wood.
The large open space is a Feild of tree stumps large and small pieces of beautiful big chunks of tree trunks of various free remnant wood for fire wood as well as for making table tops and craft stuff
Great for an outdoor activity with kids, easy to pull over and have a great time looking and having a tactile experience. Just be careful as the terrain is walking over tree parts that vary in elevation, but it's a blast to trudge through the wood that has a great wood cut smell.
Wow there so much more all around this Arco, I could go on for awhile until describing, I'm just going to mention some things at the top of my head but it really is a great area with Freeway access right there as well.
Many excellent food, breakfast,shopping mini shopping mall craft stores $100 store,, AAA location, great Pawn Shop.
That's all I have time for, shower not far from there are many other gems for grocery outlet, Trailer repair at Victor Bros. Fabulous trailer supplies. Outdoor and work clothes supplies at (I need to get back to add the name I just can't think of it, but it's a great outdoors store) they have great outdoor shoes, boots, hats, heavy duty clothing, camping surplus supplies. A bit higher priced, but worth what you will spend~high quality. Thrift store shopping at Savers is always a great time at for excellent affordable clothes and household shopping.
Seafood, hamburgers, pizza all in the vicinity of Arco, so it is a great location and very close to the Kaiser Hospital, and Downtown Redwood City Area that has great Police Officers and houses many former Citizens now working out issues as inmates in the Sheriff's Department's Secure Corrections Dept. and Probation Offices, but you wouldn't even notice it at all, it is cloaked by so many other cool things that are in every direction~ Life can be so great!!!
