Dyer-55 Freeway Mobil

Good stuff. Go here instead of the Arco AMPM nearby. I paid a fair price for gas. Pumps are in working order. In and out super quick.

I trekked all over this rather depressingly industrial area that surrounds the hotels serving SNA airport only to find that the nearest 7 – 11 and AM PM don’t sell wine or beer. I walked all the way down Dyer to find some wine at a 7 – 11 about a mile away just when I was about to give up. I didn’t like the looks of the choices of snacks at the hotel lobby so I took a very short walk to this Mobil station right next to my hotel. And you know what I found? They have wine and beer!!! The jokes on me this time, but now I KNOW. And knowledge is power. To top it all off the man at the cash register was very cool and friendly. They have a limited but decent selection of snacks and other typical convenience store sundries and it’s clean!

In a concrete jungle inhabited by fast moving cars where pedestrians are a mere nuisance and any notions of civic design, community, or architectural beauty are ignored for the sake of the conveniences of unhindered freeway access, stands an anomaly housed within the confines of the seemingly consistent aesthetic. Yes, it is a gas station and services the commuter-​industrial-​oil complex that is largely at fault for the development of this pavement desert. But, inside a cool dude greets you unhindered by the oppressive environs. This convenience mart is better than every other convenience mart right around the freeway because of the personal & friendly service from the attendants and quality selection of convenience goods.

Very conveniently located… just off the 55 frwy at Dyer & Grand. It’s got the Speedpass at every pump, a little market & it’s open 24 hours!
