Great service from Petrol attendant Lennox, however the garage does not take tips for their attendants via their mobile FNB pay station. The Engen in Sea Point is able to do this. Please fix this.

It was May 13th 2021 (also the night before Eid) around 20h15 when I decided to refuel at this service station. The gentleman whom fuelled the car had returned my key but I then couldnt manage to place the key into the ignition. As I placed the key accross the hooter, the key broke. The gentleman explained that he put half of the key into the fuel tank key hole and turned the key which explained why the bent and thus broke. A senior fuel attendant came to the car and explained that he is in fact the actual fuel attendant but because it is so busy and he didnt want me to wait much longer he then asked the gentleman whom usually does the cleaning to assist me. He took responsibility for the mishap. I asked for the manager whom then came to see me. The most impressive customer service was experienced. The managers name is Virgil. I didnt have a spare key and just a really bad night because my husbands phone had been going straight to voicemail. Nonetheless, Virgil and the senior fuel attendant whose name I unfortunately did not get, arranged for a locksmith to come out and make a set of keys for me. Virgil offered me something to drink and frequently checked up on me as I waited on the locksmith to arrive and finish making the key. Even though I left the service station at 21h50 that night, I left a satisfied returning customer. Thank you Virgil and team! Great job!

This is usually a great quick stop & shop but it’s rush hour now and there are about 20 cars waiting with only 2 guys on call. It’s taken 15 minutes to be served.

Battery issue with the car while there. Owner Paul Rothman brought us coffee while we waited for the AA. Kind and thoughtful gesture. Well-run Engen-Woolies.

A wolf dressed in sheep’s clothing. In-house Woolworths outlet but with teller at does not ask for W/loyalty card. Speaking to other colleagues while serving their customers and do not take pride in their work. To the cash register staff here, there are so many fellow South Africans who would love ❤️ to have your position, to be employed - the very least you can do is show that you are interested.

Not a pleasant place to visit in the morning. The teller shows no acknowledgement even when standing directly in front of her, no greeting instead from with an irritable look on her face 1st and her only words are plastic. Staff coming on shift are blocked by tellers gathering at the drop safe having conversations.

Limited parking and pricey. Other than that its safe, clean and service is very good. A positive is also access to 2 popular takeaway outlets and well stocked convenience store.

Probably the best petrol station in the country with a little shopping mall inside... always busy... 24/7.... but miraculously... there is always one or two parking spots available. its amazing to see a petrol station churning like that

Review №11

When I stopped at this garage they were extremely busy. Waited a while to be serviced. Upon enquiry on how long it will take I was told in a very abrupt manner that I had to wait my turn......which was way overdue. So I left! Very convenient and very pricey with service lacking tremendously. Sadly I will not be returning as they clearly dont want my business.

Review №12

When paying for petrol and goods please expect to make payment twice. On top of that this seems to be their form of entertainment as the line of cashiers gawk at you for your reaction to the petrol stations policy!Although I loved this options service and peoples skills are lacking

Review №13

Terrible service, went to to the garage last night, the garage was relative quiet. we pulled up at the first pump and waited for attendant while my husband went to the woolies. he returned and we were still not assisted by the petrol attendant, however, ppl who arrived after us were attended before me. this is not the first incident at this station. I find that they truly lack in service. Kloof street engen services is way better.

If youre having a night out in the city, you eventually end up here. This place has a petrol station, a pizza, as well as a burger outlet, a bakery and a well stocked Woolworths store. The bakery used to sell divine apple strudels, but no longer:-(While waiting in the queues at the fast food outlets, youll strike conversations and forge new friendships with fellow revellers.This place is open 24 hours a day and the staff are always friendly.

Perfectly situated in Gardens next to the city exit onto De Waal Drive. Convenience for all that enters the building. You may fill up your vehicle or simply stop to buy necessities for home or get a meal anytime of the day.

Review №19

There are very few 24 hour places that are kept this good. For a petrol station store, it pretty amazing. Also if you get there really late, its rather entertaining watching all the party goers on their way home. Hopefully with a designated driver.

Very convenient store for groceries, a bakery as well as fast food pizza (Debonaires) and burgers (Steers). The staff are also wonderful. I accidentally left in the shop on Friday night and the store contacted me the next day to let me know it was safe, with all my belongings in it. Special thank you to Roxy and Marianne who assisted

Trengen. The legend, the myth. The I am kinda hungry, maybe Ill just nip in for ALL the food. At 3am kind of venue.And maybe get petrol at more reasonable hour of the day.Super pleasant. Always well stocked. I actually just saw the truck for Wollies unloading all the food deliveries. Yes, it is also 3am. Yes, I did buy all the food.

Just filled up my scooter and upon arriving at my destination I discovered that the attendant did not replace the cap on my fuel tank. Pretty fundamental, methinks. Tried calling. Useless IVR resulting in no one answering my call. Unimpressed to say the least.

This Woolworths has cool stuff thats not easy to find elsewhere, maybe because there are many tourist and foreigners in this part of town some pf the products are more international. They are 24h so maybe you been there after a night out. There is also the steers and the pizza place, a s

Review №36

Woolies ones stop is generally well stocked. Service is usually friendly. Takeaway joints are a plus but can get annoyingly busy on the weekends. The bakery is a bit of conundrum...in this world of low carb gluten free hipsters, who still eets a custard filled Chelsea bun, amongst other pasties? Some Deli style food will surely be welcomed by the drunken after party masses😊

This is simply the best petrol station in the country with 24 hour fresh Woolworth fair. And everybody knows it which is why youll inevitably queue for ages. (Hint, pay for your groceries at the Steers)

Strange to say, but this station is a Cape Town institution. At any time of day chances are youll run into smoene you know (if youre from cape town). At times you wonder if people do their weekly shopping here given the foot traffc.

Review №52

I get food here when im at work. the selection is decent but no toothpaste. Ive had trouble with the price at the till and the price on the tag doesnt match up. This is possibly the worst steers in Cape Town as well and the Debonairs isnt much better. I upgraded from a 3 star to a 4 because of all the attractive girls that go there

Got a WW express inside. Now you are able to buy your vegan butter at 3am. Good shop but its pricy since its a 24h shop inside an ENGEN gas station. The rest is ok.

Review №64

Engen is fine, but the staff in the store seem to take it upon themselves to RIP OFF customers for every 5 cents they can score. When the change owed to you is 15 cents, and the till staff dont have a 5 cent piece, you are entitled to get the full 20 cents. NOT 10 cents ! and thus them pocketing the 5 cents owed to you. corruption right under our noses !!
