So, what time does Sainsbury’s petrol station open? The honest answer is: it depends. But if you want a safe bet, aim for 7:00 AM on weekdays and 8:00 AM on Sundays. For bank holidays, add an hour. And for the love of all that is caffeinated, check the store finder online before you go. Your future self—who isn’t stranded in a chilly forecourt at 7:15 AM—will thank you.
Now go fill up, get that breakfast, and drive safely. And if you see a guy in a bathrobe angrily tapping his watch at a closed pump, be kind. It might be me. It probably is me.
