Finding cheap gas in San Francisco (94127)
St. Francis Wood and Monterey Heights anchor this hilly southwest corner, some of the most carefully zoned residential blocks in San Francisco. Curving estate streets and the small West Portal shopping village leave essentially no room for fuel, so you will not happen onto a station while running errands here.
Residents fill along the edges instead. Sloat Boulevard and the 19th Avenue corridor to the west, or Ocean Avenue to the south near City College and the BART line, hold the nearest clusters of stations. West Portal itself is built around the Muni tunnel and a row of storefronts, with no gas of its own. Prices in this pocket sit at the high end of an already expensive city, so the realistic move is to top off on your way out toward the freeways rather than circling for a deal that the neighborhood simply does not have.

How to save more on gas in San Francisco
1. Use warehouse clubs
Costco and Sam’s Club typically price 15-25 cents per gallon below nearby stations. Membership pays for itself within a few fill-ups.
2. Fill up early in the week
Stations often raise prices Thursday for weekend demand. Fill up Monday through Wednesday to avoid the lift.
3. Keep tires properly inflated
Properly inflated tires improve fuel economy by up to 3 percent at current prices. Check pressure once a month.
4. Check back tomorrow
Prices can shift 10-20 cents overnight during volatile markets. A quick check before you leave home avoids paying yesterday’s spike.
5. Pay cash at split-pricing stations
Stations with cash and credit split pricing typically save an average of 10 cents per gallon when you pay cash.

About gas prices in California
California has the highest gas taxes in the nation at roughly 60 cents per gallon when you combine the state excise tax with the cap-and-trade program and underground storage fee. The state requires a special CARB-formulated fuel that only a handful of in-state refineries can produce, so a single refinery outage can spike prices statewide within 48 hours. Costco, Sam's Club, and Arco are typically the cheapest across Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, and Sacramento metros, while Chevron, Shell, and 76 dominate freeway exits. Stations along Interstate 5 and US 101 commonly run 10 to 20 cents higher than equivalent stations a mile off the freeway.
