About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron and noticed something odd in the parking lot—a mysterious old briefcase, locked tight. He mentioned it to no one, thinking it might belong to someone who’d forgotten it. Days passed, and still nobody claimed the briefcase. Finally, an elderly gentleman approached the counter one evening. ‘Excuse me,’ he said, smiling warmly, ‘I believe I left my lunchbox here.’

2. A delivery driver pulled up to Chevron one afternoon, only to discover an old, dusty ukulele leaning against the pump. Nobody claimed it, so he took it inside. Since then, customers occasionally leave strange items—an abandoned kite, a forgotten umbrella, even a small potted plant. One day, a neighbor dropped off an ancient accordion, claiming it was cursed. The manager shrugged and placed it next to the ukulele. Soon enough, customers started leaving all sorts of musical instruments—a harmonica found in the park, a tin whistle from who-knows-where. Now, on Sundays, Chevron hosts impromptu jam sessions that attract locals and make everyone smile.

3. At Chevron, a regular customer exclaimed one day, ‘I think I just saw my car filling itself!’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Welcome to the future, sir.’ A few days later, an excited delivery driver rushed in, yelling, ‘My truck’s doing all the work! It even paid for itself at the pump!’ The attendant laughed and said, ‘Seems like your vehicle got its own Chevron card, mate.’

4. A curious neighbor stopped by Chevron one evening and asked: 'Do you guys ever run out of gas?' The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Oh no, sir. We’ve got an unlimited supply—we’re owned by an oil company!’ The neighbor nodded thoughtfully before asking, ‘So what do you do when someone actually runs out?’ The cashier grinned, ‘We just fill up their car with stories instead.’
