    This is a great place to buy your vape liquid and accessories it has everything!! I’ve been to a lot of places but keep coming back to this one even though I now live in north county because they always have the best products. The guy there is super helpful and nice, honestly I can’t say enough good things about him! The service is awesome!!

    Update: 03-20-2018 I'm totally over the local Vape shop thing. After spending $1100 in one year on vaping juice, hardware, coils and tank I stopped shopping at Vape shops. I get my juice by ordering flavors and mixing everything my self at MyFreedomSmokes. I found the greatest knowledge and patience here of any vape shop that I have visited in the San Diego area. Megan was very patient as I did samples and sat in on various conversations to learn and enjoy other people's perspectives for almost two hours. Basically if you go in at a slow time like I did and what other customers came in I told them feel free to yell to them and I want to monopolize your time. Assembled a lot of juices with their dripping vaporizer mod. It helps and it's important to me to sample because I thrown away too much money on juices I hate even when I smell them and thought they were good and then got them home. They carry more Hardware mods and tanks and that kind of thing than any vape shop that I visited locally. I also asked some specific technical questions about issues with certain brands or a device which I had read about in detail online they knew about the problem they described exactly what causes it how to avoid it and that sort of thing. I can't remember the gentleman's name with glasses that Megan was working with but he was also nice too and very knowledgeable. They had a nice 3-ring binder which listed uses by flavors so you flip to a page has his Menthol and then they have all the juices listed that have Menthol flavor the same with dessert fruit candy Etc. Another reviewer mentioned in odor in the store like mold or something and I detected that saintly I think that from previous years when another business may have had carpet that older has spread to the ventilation system in probably needs to be purged for the chemical otherwise it had a nice hardwood floor and really shouldn't have any older at all other than vaping products. They have the ventilation system dialed in perfectly air moves to evacuate The Vapor Clouds but isn't so cold or windy as I've experienced in other vape shops that you feel like you're in the refrigerator. The furniture was nice and they were people hanging out some military guys and that kind of thing talking and relaxing which creates a nice atmosphere. My only complaint would be that I wish the juice prices were a little bit lower but that's the only fault I could find. In a different revealed that I had read on Yelp or somewhere someone complained that they had a problem with Hardware or some other issue and I think it's best to deal with Megan or the guy with glasses specifically to resolve an issue. I saw a customer that had a threading problem with his tank and I listened carefully as I watched them work it out.

    My experience with Vape Up is by far the best. Customer service is top notch, all employees are friendly and very welcoming. not to mention very knowledgeable. (two thumbs up!). They have a wide variety of juices which i like and always on stock and prices are amazing! I had a problem with my mod, Lee did not hesitate to help! Awesome service and I would definitely recommend them!

    The staff is always very helpful and the store in general has a superb selection for both beginner and advance set ups. They also have great choices for various juices, even those that are new on the market. Cool people and amazing vibe. Only place thus far I've had the best experience in San Diego.

    Came here for the first time to shop for a new vape, particularly a draw activated unit to replace the button activated ones I had. The girl behind the counter was helpful to show me the variety of options they offered. After selecting the unit for purchase, she kindly demonstrated the assembly and operation. I was also pleasantly surprised that they carried the specific vape flavor I was looking for. I'll be returning here in the future for replacement parts for my new unit.

    I'm an avid vaper and I've been going here for 3 years. I've never had a problem that wasn't solved by their friendly down to earth staff, they have the knowledge to solve many problems. The vast inventory they have and reasonable prices they use has my vote for the best store to go to in San Diego. If you're either new or experienced in vaping this is the place to go.

    Best Vape shop in San Diego hands down. The staff is very helpful and will make sure you are comfortable with whatever you purchase.

    Its pretty obvious what you give 5 stars for.. Kindness and quality service and or product seem to be up there on necessities of a good visit. And not only was this place fairly extravagant (huge tvs, super comfy furniture) but when i came in, the two (young guy and girl) that helped me were more than generous w their time and even made calls to see if another place had a part i needed. Thanks for being great additions to society!

    I've been to small shops, but this place is kiosk sized. Set inside an eyeglass shop they have a U shaped display counters and a glass case showing off their different lines of juices which considering it's size is pretty abundant. Service is attentive and friendly, prices are about average. Parking is almost non-existent. 5-6 shared spots with an equal amount of business. Additional parking in the way back via an alleyway but it really seems like it's in no way connected to the little pop up sized store. If you're going North on Naples you will easily miss it as the fluorescent signage is that cheesy used car dealership style promoting the industry more than Vape Up itself. Please make it stand out more. Selection of juices and tips are impressive for their size with almost a dozen local and other vendors. The pricing on their starter kits is very good. Though I've tried almost every juice available in SD a flavor book would be nice for the beginner. I didn't see a rebuilding station or ask since I do my own. What's even more impressive is their selection of high end mods. The OC and North County community doesn't get to see the Scorpion and other mods that are this far south so it was nice to see the regionalism. I like how their Atomizers were on display, clear and concise. I came here for hotwire's beastmode as I normally vape with Kanthal A1 26g and was interested in the new resistance wire formulated by Chadster. The 2 biggest downfalls are size and inability to lounge and relax and hang out, both seem to be part and parcel, but with their diverse selection from beginners to advanced equipment it's a place I'll be stopping by again if I'm in the area.

    Customer service is great, a volume of juice choices and very nice clean place to shop and prices are reasonable. I will refer anyone here and I will have this as my store for a long time.
