First, the answer to the question that brings most people here: there is no Costco gas bar in Vancouver proper. None of the Costco warehouses in the city (or in Burnaby or Richmond) sells fuel. Metro Vancouver has exactly two Costco gas bars — at 2370 Ottawa Street in Port Coquitlam and off 64th Avenue near the Langley Bypass — which is astonishingly few for a region of nearly three million people, and a big part of why Vancouver lacks the warehouse-club price anchor that keeps other Canadian cities’ gas markets honest.
Both bars do what Costco fuel does everywhere: post prices well below the surrounding majors — commonly 10–20 cents per litre under the Vancouver city average — with the usual conditions. You need an active Costco membership to pump, payment is Mastercard or debit only, and queues peak on weekends and weekday evenings. On a 60-litre fill a 15¢/L gap saves $9, so for members in the eastern suburbs the gas bar can cover a Gold Star membership on fuel alone.
Whether the drive pays from Vancouver itself is a distance question: from most of the city, burning 30–45 minutes of fuel and time to reach Port Coquitlam erases the saving unless you were headed that way. The live sections below show both bars’ current prices so you can do the math honestly — and if Costco is out of reach, the SE Marine Drive strip and the Surrey corridors are the region’s best open-to-everyone alternatives.
