As everyone has said… this place is a 24 hour lifesaver. It has a great range of essential grocery items, like chocolate and ice cream, and always smells like that awesome Subway freshly cooked bread(probably because that resides in the On The Run). Isles are well organised and this place is always clean and fresh. Unfortunately anytime I am here during the day to get petrol the service is painfully slow, yet friendly and with a smile. I have never had the EAT or DRINK options here(aptly named) but they don’t look that bad. I would probably prefer to actually pick one of their pre-cooked meals or frozen meals from their freezer section though anyway! On The Run is great for petrol but more so for 10pm at night emergencies of the chocolate craving kind.

Probably one of the CBD-located petrol stations I frequent the most. They are really friendly and helpful, and always greet you with a warm smile. I have gotten my car washed here a couple of times and they did a great job, seeing as the only wash my car gets is when it rains. There aren’t very many petrol stations in the city, and these guys are absolute lifesavers when you’re low on petrol around the CBD.

On more than one occasion, this place has been a lifesaver. One of the things I hate about Adelaide is all the supermarkets seem to shut early. So when I’m caught with needing something(often a chocolate fix) I head right here. Why, you ask? Because it’s always open! They also have Subway, a coffee/bakery store, and the main service area stocks a surprisingly large variety of supermarket products.

For some bizarre reason, it can be really hard for a visitor to Adelaide to do any shopping in the evening. I mean, the last experience that I had with a supermarket in Adelaide was one that was closing up at 6pm, and I’d arrived just in time to see the doors locked. I mean, seriously? Major supermarket closing at 6pm? In a major suburb? I was pretty incredulous, and after spending eight hours in the car, I was pretty buggered. But I needed stuff, and so ended up spending another half hour looking for a place to shop. That’s when I stumbled upon this place. It’s a service station, but it appears to be the only place where you can get any shopping done when it gets late. They don’t have heaps of stuff, but they’ve got the essentials. They also have the service station mark up prices, so it’s not a good idea to buy everything you need here. It’s good to know though, that if I need it, it’s there.
