Currently as of 27th march 2024 this shell garage is 15p a litre MORE than the equivalent BP just down the road in glasshoughton. No matter what the owner or shell trot out over, supply and distribution of fuel costs are this place is literally inflating prices way above many local petrol stations, including BP, ASDA AND OTHERS. AVOID THIS PLACE AND SAVE YOURSELVES MONEY BY GOING ELSEWHERE!

Gingu, is a pleasure to deal with. I go in this petrol station multiple times per week and he is always the same, happy to see you and always helpful!

Probably the most expensive fuel off the motorway network

Gotta watch the prices here, competative one day,10p dearer than elsewhere next day...more concerning is that they have two tills,but seem to think queues are unimportant, one takes the cash whilst the other ignores everyone,and leans on the counter playing on her phone...happens a lot ...plenty of sarnies,drinks snacks,but near motorway prices

Used before, but at your overinflated prices I just stick couple of £ in and drove down the road to fill up. Usual excuse saying costs vary between garages and postcodes, plus costs, distribution and supply…blah blah blah…general public don’t want to hear lip service (must be run by a Tory supporter) they want a solution, cheaper fuel, more customers, make more money…is it that hard?

The older woman who works there has a disgusting sense of customer service. The way she spoke to my girlfriend and her mates recently disgusts me. I understand u don’t want drunk people In Your shop but it’s a night pay window. Refusing to serve people drink is stupid unless ur in a pub. But this is a night pay window why on earth would u not serve someone and then be rude to them. She’s been there years and has always had disgusting customer service!Went to get alcohol for my girlfriend last night and then came back claiming there’s a 24hr drink ban due to the queens funeral
Extremely expensive for fuel. 15p a litre more expensive than small garages just over a mile away. Very quick to pass on increases, obscenely slow to pass on savings.

AVOID...Overpriced fuel compare to other local garages. 15 pence per litre higher compared to BP Castleford or Shell in Wakefield. Even with app and some discount it doesn't come anywhere close. Feels like a rip off if other garages can reduce their prices down to current market levels...

Avoid this profiteering fuel station. It's 15p a litre cheaper at Asda and BP just down the road in Castleford.

Ripping people off with their over inflated fuel prices avoid all Pontefract garages they seem to be price fixing

Returned from holiday to a letter from west yorkshire police accusing my husband of not paying for fuel. We have confirmation that my husband had paid for his £40.01 diesel. After discussion with the police my husband went to the petrol station to understand why he was being accused of not paying for £56.03 of fuel. Upon viewing the cctv footage it clearly showed someone not paying for £56.03 of petrol 4 minutes before my husband even entered the petrol station. How they got it so wrong we will never understand but to accuse someone of theft and report it to the police when they evidence was so clearly obvious as to who it was is shocking. There was no apology given and we are still waiting to hear from the police that the petrol station has been in touch and the matter has been dropped.
