About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the Shell station’s neon sign flickered softly, a delivery driver noticed something strange. Every full moon, an old man in a trench coat would appear out of thin air near the gas pumps. The delivery driver waved hello to the mysterious figure, who nodded back without saying a word. Over time, they started chatting during those late-night deliveries—turns out the old man was just a local retiree with a fondness for vintage cars and moonlit walks. On especially quiet nights, you could still see them both standing there, the old man refueling his dream car while the delivery guy swapped stories about his day.

2. One morning, as a delivery driver filled up his truck at the Shell station, he heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, could Mr. Clean please come to the service desk? Your mop is needed urgently.’ The delivery driver looked around puzzled but then burst out laughing. He thought for a moment before calling back: 'Mr. Clean must be on vacation!' The crowd of customers chuckled, and soon everyone was enjoying their morning coffee with a smile. Since then, whenever someone mentions that Shell station, people joke about its resident cleaning enthusiast who never shows up'.

3. At dawn, while filling up his truck, a delivery driver muttered under his breath, ‘Why does my coffee always taste better here?’ Turns out, Shell’s coffee was brewed from beans smuggled in by an enthusiastic barista who believed in magical mornings. And every time someone asked for a refill, he whispered, ‘Just one more cup for good luck.’

4. At dusk, when the Shell gas station’s clock on the pump counted down minutes instead of seconds, a delivery driver swore he saw the numbers change slower than usual. Curious, the delivery driver mentioned it to his neighbor over coffee one morning. ‘You ever notice how slow those numbers move?’ asked the driver. The neighbor just laughed and replied, ‘Of course not—you’re always in a hurry!’
