Maybe. It's possible I'd tag that as a parking_aisle. The point was more
though that I wouldn't use parking_aisle for something that *doesn't*
have parking spaces.

"Anywhere else that you don't get out of your car to be served" is
effectively what I proposed, but (at least in the US, nearly all) fuel
stations do *not* meet that criteria.
