Esso has more sites in our data than any other brand, and the network reaches into a lot of smaller towns where the alternatives are thin. That breadth means Esso pricing varies enormously: competitive where there is a supermarket nearby, considerably higher where the site is the only forecourt for miles.

A large share of Esso stations are dealer-owned rather than run by the oil company, so the person setting the price is often a local operator responding to local conditions. This is why two Esso forecourts in neighbouring towns can differ by ten pence a litre.

Many Esso sites carry Tesco Express or the Nisa convenience brand, and Esso participates in Tesco Clubcard at a number of locations. Worth knowing if you collect points, though as always the base price matters more.

Below are the cheapest Esso stations in our current data, with the brand average set against the national figure.
