Get It On Smoke Shop

STAY AWAY from this shop! Zero customer service skills. Very rude. Not a great variety of items. Plenty of other great smoke shops in the neighborhood to give your business to.

Stopped in to check it out while visiting SD from STL. The cat working, as well as the locals in there hanging out were very friendly and gave my wife and I a first hand taste of the local vibe. They helped us out with useful local info about both SD and OB.
Looking about in the store, great selection and reasonable prices… definitely worth a visit!

The owners a creep and suggested we have a threesome with my girlfriend. Get some manners you scumbag. If you want to sexually harass your customers id suggest someone that doesn’t know anything about the law or how illegal it is that you say things like that to someone. I feel so terrible for any person that enters this store and has to deal with him. The debate, to sue with my recording or not to sue for sexual harassment. You’re disgusting, treat people with some respect. I hope you get shut down.

Jonathan was awesome, came in to ask a quick question about the area, ended up buying a gorgeous piece with copper on it. Really nice vibes, happy to have a piece to bring back to nyc!

Best smoke shop in SD Hands Down! Jonathan is aaaamazing at his product knowledge– I even bet my future career based on his advice & he was RIGHT! + He did a mind boggling energy reading that changed my outlook on life forever! Much LOE 4 this shop! :)

I walked in, and felt immediately patronized for not being local. The dude with the faux-​hawk was not helpful or hospitable. The bowls etc. looked nice, maybe the owner isn’t so jaded.

John was spot on and extremely pleasurable to talk to. His positive energy was extremely refreshing and rewarding. My best friend, and roommate, Jon, recently passed away. The kind words he told me was really needed and welcomed.

This shop is amazing, not your regular smoke shop! Jonathon does great energy readings, Sal, the owner, is always in a good mood, and Leo is funny and extremely helpful as well. The ceiling is pretty cool too, you should check it out sometime.

I don’t smoke often enough to visit a smoke shop… I don’t even know what to look for in a smoke shop so the four stars are four the customer service we received from Johnathan. He is amazing and can read your energy! He is very accurate so if you are heading to a smoke shop, do yourself a favor and come here!
Aside from all of that, this place is very close to the beach (about 2 blocks or so) and is small. I stopped by because my friend wanted to get a cigar. According to her, they had a lot of different flavors are were fairly priced :)

I worked here for a little over a year or so in 1975 — 76 when I was going to college. «Sliders» was then a laundramat, and «Harry’s Market» was across the street, and a Jack in the Box was on the corner. The logo for the store back then was the «Zig-​Zag man» and we referred to these places as head shops, not smoke shops. I think we may have been among the first store of any kind to have anti-​theft security tags that would make an alarm go off if you left the shop with a T-​shirt under your clothes. I recall at least three times when I chased after shoplifters who had set off the alarm and ran out the store (I was much faster then, and dumber, too!). «Superstones» were $ 1.25 then ($ 1.59 after tax), and I really hated waiting on stoned customers who would feel the need to examine every single one of the things before they could make a decision on which was the perfect one to buy. In my head movies, I’d be thinking, «It’s just a stoopid roach holder, ferchristsakes,» (but I never said that out loud). Shirley and Spencer Wold were the owners, and great people to work for. Glad to see the place is still serving Mission Beach and the surrounding communities and great to read the positive reviews.
And THAT, dear Unilocal!fans, is my trip (heh-​heh) down memory lane…

This place is the
!
Not only is it in a great location but the prices and the staff are on point. Seriously, there is no shortage of smoke shops in the area but the folks that work here really care about their jobs and their products. I’m happy to say that every time I go in I learn something new about their artists and product in store. They are reasonable prices and won’t sell you something that’s designed to break so you have to come back again. They work for your satisfaction and you can tell.

Even though this smoke shop is a bit of a drive for me, I’ve become a regular customer because of the excellent service. I feel like the staff genuinely cares about how satisfied you are with your purchase and they’re stoked on the products they carry. It’s nothing like the shady little stores on El Cajon run by shifty eyed weirdos.
Since my first review, I purchased an amazing HiSi bowl piece (with 9 holes, woohoo!) and a nice bag to protect my piece. I was impressed with the variety of glassware: there’s a wide variety of sizes, percs, and styles. Lots of unique things, too. It’s a shame I don’t need a new piece, because I’d buy it here.

This place is awesome. As stated in previous ratings, the staff is very pleasant and knowledgable. I went to a few shops the same day and this shop hands down had the best customer service and the most inviting atmosphere not to mention some beautiful unique glass pieces! Prices are reasonable too! In the end, I decided to purchase glass here because of the overall perfect appeal of this shop. How COULD I go anywhere else? I will definitely be back. :)

Great store, lots of cool glass. I could’ve spent about $ 300 here and came home with a suitcase full, but didnt. I wanted to, desperately, but didnt.

A very friendly smoke shop in Mission Beach. Chill atmosphere. Prices are very reasonable. They sell cigars, stickers, smoking paraphernalia. It’s a small shop but huge selections.
The person who was working at the moment was very friendly and helpful. I was looking for a bubbler for a decent price. He was patient with me. Took his time to explain how each of the bubblers work and he even recommended some to me that I might like. I ended up buying one of his recommendations.
Store Policy: Buy a piece (bong, pipe, bubbler). Name it. Go back and let them know what you named your piece and get a free gift :)

AMAZING AMAZING service!!! Johnathan really knows what he is talking about! He is very knowledgeable, and he truly seems to care about his job and what he is doing! I have seen him several times in the store take 30 min with a customer to ensure they were informed on their product and got exactly what the were looking for. Highly recommend this store to EVERYONE!

The people here are really helpful. They really know their stuff. I usually only get hookah tobacco here, but they have some beautiful pieces. They give pretty good advice, and service is good. They have a good selection of hookah tobacco by several different brands, including Starbuzz, Fumari, and the more generic brands.
They will tell you Fumari is the best, and I would definitely agree. It can get a bit pricey though, so you can get one of the cheaper ones and mix them. I would recommend against the sour apple Starbuzz. I am not a fan. It’s extremely green, which turns me off for some reason, and tastes rather artificial.
They remodeled the whole place recently and it looks great. Apparently they also divided the original store into two and are opening up a burger joint in the new half of the store. I am looking forward to the results.

Great smoke shop, probably one of the best selections I’ve seen in the San Diego area. Several very unique pieces as well. I worked with both Sal (the owner) and John (the manager with the cool hair) and they both went out of their way to make sure I was satisfied and found the «piece» that was just right for me!
Worth the drive to Mission Beach if you’re looking for a nice piece for your collection!

I just dropped by here today to get a glass water pipe, since I was in the area. I had been contemplating on buying a bubbler for a smoother smoke — since sometimes straight ol’ cigars can get me a little lightheaded.
I was helped by Sal, and later spoke to John on the phone concerning the piece I bought — since it changes colors — and I’m super excited about what I’ve learned.
These guys really know their stuff. Sal is a connoisseur when it comes to cigars and John was awesome at teaching me about the glass, and I’d consider him an expert — seeing as he began his career by blowing glass.
If you’re a pipe smoker, looking for a new and interesting pieces to smoke out of — I definitely suggest dropping by here. They have an amazing selection, super helpful and friendly staff, and they really take care of their clientele.
