6435 Dobbin Rd, Columbia“Dobbin Center in Columbia, MD., is a busy shopping center that is usually always crowded. The parking lot stays full, and there are special sales and
bargains frequently. Panera Bread, Wendy’s, McDonald’s, Starbucks are a few popular eating places there. Walmart and Ross are favorites in terms of bargains.”

6300 Stevens Forest Rd, Columbia“Very nice and friendly gas station. You much appreciated everyone that works at this store. They keep the place clean. They know how to treat customers. I must return to this location.”
“They diagnosed the problem, couldn't fix it that day, but did not charge me for the diagnosis (even after volunteering to pay). The advisor was patient explaining the situation, and was honest about worst-case scenarios. I left with the feeling that they were straight with their customers, which, of course, I appreciate.”

6440 Freetown Rd, Columbia“Shout out to the wonderful customer service that I received today by the manager and the gentleman working in the store. I walked in with my oil light on and the clerk helped me to pick out the correct type of oil and the manager not only put it in for me but also showed me how to do it myself next time. Great people. :)”

6345 Dobbin Rd, Columbia“Let’s get to the elephant in the room first— for most, the location/space sucks and at peak times, the traffic gets crazy, but there’s nothing you can do about it. Columbia is expanding. However, the location works for me because it’s easier to run errands and get gas due to the surrounding establishments.
That said, the staff has always been very friendly to me. They’re great about correcting those who like to go against the traffic rules there. Gas is always priced as good as it gets in Columbia (sometimes beats Baltimore too!).
The air machine is great when it works. Tip: get gas on [your] right of the attendant station to make it easier to access the air pump after you have gotten gas.
More tips:
-Get gas when it is cooler (early morning is best, but later in the evening works too) as cooler gas is more dense, whereas the heat can expand the gas making your total fill up cost more than what it may otherwise. This is also why you shouldn’t overfill your tank so as to allow space for expansion when it heats up during the day and any run over may not even be used by your engine.
-Try not to get gas when the truck is making a delivery as this has the potential to have too much unsettled gas, causing you to pay (just a little) more than usual.
-Pump on the lowest setting to avoid getting too much air mixed in and paying (slightly) more.”
“It's a gas station, need I say more? Ok, I will...I stopped here on 10 Feb 2024, so I could fill up my rental car prior to dropping it off at BWI airport. Even though the gas prices were fairly high, I was still shocked, yet ecstatic that the gas prices were lower than my home city of Las Vegas (Nevada). Unfortunately, I was kind of in a rush so I didn't have time to walk in and experience the convenience store on site, but considering it's a gas station, I don't think there would be anything special about it.The gas pumps worked fine; I didn't get my personal info stolen from those idiot thieves; and the gas pump actually printed my receipt upon request, so no major issues on my end. It is very rare that I would rate a gas station a 5-star experience because I don't believe I could ever "love" a gas station, but, you never know. Regardless, since I had no issues at this gas station, I'm still recommending this place to everyone.”

8251 Snowden River Pkwy, Columbia“For any individuals stopping back at this respective ExxonMobil station nearmost Baltimore Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, this station is an adequate station to stop by on the way back to the airport in the event of a needed fill up, despite the cost of gasoline being absurdly high for the standards in the midst of the Russian-Ukrainian War in the Biden Administration, as this location is conveniently located off of Maryland 100 in Columbia, 10 miles from BWI, equipped with all of the usual fixtures of an ExxonMobil Gasoline Station, and a similar convenience store, sparse in size, but grand in scale.”

6000 Foreland Garth, Columbia“It's a very good in-and-out place to buy snacks or beverages; staff are certainly friendly, but one of the main entrance doors is blocked by an ATM, causing some confusion between which door to pull when you enter. When school is in session, it's not uncommon to see youngsters fighting behind the adjoined car wash, or smoking in front of the gas station itself. Some minors use this store to fuel their drug use, buying lighters & such.”
“I don’t usually buy food at gas stations maybe snacks. I happened to be in the area of this station 2x back to back and noticed how the Subway sandwich area always had a few customers in line and I could smell the bread…I took a gamble and was very surprised at how fresh and tasty my sandwich was! The rest of the store seemed well stocked organized and clean. The lady making the sandwiches is really friendly and professional. Again to my surprise but I would definitely return!”
