The petrol station in question is located on Jan Smuts Avenue in Rosebank. It is not your average filling station.
This is not because of the extraordinary price of fuel – given that the cost of fuel is at an all-time high, after the recent price increase.
The Sasol service station in Rosebank, Johannesburg is unlike any other petrol station in the country. This is due to the exceptional onsite eatery and food court located at the filling station.
INNOVATIVE CONCEPT
Gauteng has always been the country’s hub for innovative and creative entrepreneurs and business ventures.
This petrol station is a cut above the rest due to the genius thinking of restauranteur and chef David Higgs. Higgs is the owner of several high-end restaurants in Johannesburg including Zioux, Saint and Marble.
PETROL STATION
If you happen to be on Jan Smuts Avenue, needing some fuel you must stop by The Pantry while you’re there.
The Pantry is accessible and well-located. It is a real delight. It has everything you could want, ranging from groceries to cooked meals – all sold with warm hospitality.

THE PANTRY
The Sasol station’s convenience store is a hybrid between a deli, a bakery, a patisserie and a restaurant.
The Pantry has chefs and restaurant managers on hand to answer your questions and inspire you with new foodie ideas.
It offers restaurant-quality food but not at restaurant prices. The Pantry is especially known for its delectable focaccia bread and its doughnuts.
AN EXPERIENCE
When you next fill up your tank, you should consider dropping into the “convenience store” at this filling station, for an amazing experience.
The staff understands restaurants and customers and offers a unique experience that cannot be found at any other filling station in the country.
The visit promises to be an experience, not just a transaction. Higgs has brought the restaurant factor into this exceptional convenience shop.
