“This place is great!!! Yeah, it seems small because it is jam packed with beers and wines of all kinds. I drove out from Chula Vista (17) miles because a friend told me they had very hard to find Leinenkugel's Octoberfest Beer. They did!!! Of course I was delighted and even more so by the service and the very congenial person behind the counter. I bought the last two six packs but he assured me he would have more by Friday. #lienenkugels. #leinie's. I shall return!!”
“This place is amazing. Had exactly what I was looking for and everything you could ever want. High end and clean. And the guy who helped me out was SO friendly!! My new go to spot. 10/10”
“I walked in the the other night and instantly liked the variety of products. After browsing for a few minutes the owner offered some free product and I came back the next night and bought some products where ai was offered 20% off. This shop is amazing and the people who work here even more so!
The product I was given was a liquid mushroom shot called Kio: Muscimind liquid trip. The taste was smooth and fruity and even though you won't be seeing colors, the drink helped me relax and release anxiety. Very nice for the end of a stressful day without the commitment of a full on trip.”
“Smoke shop is amazing they have great prices! HUGE shoutout to the employee Hermz he was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and kind! I came in with a group of friends and we all had questions about different items and he taught us so much stuff. Thanks Hermz you deserve a raise bro fr!”
“G Mac is very helpful, accommodating and honest. My brother got a battery here and there were a few defects when we left within the hour, but we got taken care of. They accept all forms of payment here. The customer service is great and they really care about their service. I can tell people who come here become regulars because of this type of love.”
“10/10 -- Great staff and wonderful prices! Always good energy and also all kinds of "stuff" hence the name. I needed some cold sore over the counter stuff, they had the Aberva, and nice refreshments. Plus some smokes of course! Also the tall man with the dreads that works at the shop has great customer service, (very sexy as well). I'm a usually and it will stay that way. :-)”
“I love this mini market! They have everything I want and when Sam doesn’t have it, he will order it. I asked for Cotton Candy Faygo which is a rare find and he was able to order it for me! Super cool. Really nice guy. 10/10 I love to do all my shopping here.”
“This shop opens before most stores at the mall which is great when you need to start your day off with energy. There's a nice selection of snacks and beverages. Plus if you're lucky you get to experience Sam's awesome customer service.”
“I drive all the way from Carlsbad to come to this place! The service is amazing. I feel like Barbie walking into Ken's palace...they really take care of you!”
“The owner is such a kind hearted person who has always been able to help me with any questions or advice. He’s never tried to sell me anything I feel I can’t afford and my products are still lasting and working for me today. I will always recommend this shop to anyone. Support local.”
“I have been coming here for years thanks to my coworker recommending them. They are close to my work and let me tell you, these guys are so wonderful! Super friendly, great prices, clean shop. I recommend them always!”
“These guys are awesome?... They know what I want?? B4 I get a chance to ask them. ..they treat you like family..prices and customer service awesome??❤️?? I love how they make sure their customers leave their store happy and smiling ☺️ they also have this candy "alien brain" I think... a little ?? for the size of the bag but well worth it ?
THEY GET ALL THE STARS”
“This shop and its employees always help me pick out all of what I need. They’re always friendly and helpful with all of my questions. Thanks for making alpine a place where I always stop in !”
“Mike the owner is a really nice guy as well are his sons that work there.Always respectful with a great attitude. I have been going the for years.they always ask about the wellbeing of my family.”
“My husband and I highly recommend this smoke shop. They have super good pricing along with an amazing selection. We drive past three other smoke shops just to go to this one. Every time we go there they have a ton of sales and it is always clean. I don't smoke hookah but they have this cool fruit bar, where I believe you can make your own flavors or mix them or something. My silly face thought that they actually had a fruit bar to get fresh fruit, which would be a good idea because we would definitely buy some. I bet they'd have great pricing on that too. They have an employee named Charlie, he is super friendly and knowledgeable. His personality and demeanor are another reason we go back, you just don't find customer service like that anymore. There's a lot of times that I'm just a chatty Cathy, I also have a habit of looking at things after im done with my purchase. I really appreciate the fact that he never makes me feel rushed or seems bothered that we (including our pup) are still there. He has this way of making you feel welcomed that many people don't have these days. You never feel like he just wants you to get in and get out, that gentleman deserves a raise. Anyways, we definitely recommend this smoke shop. I will say they need to update their pictures on Google, they don't do justice for how beautiful this shop it is, it also doesn't show what they actually offer.
We will be back!”

“I have bought a ten pack of brass pipe screens three different times and only got nine screens each time. The person I talked to about it didn't really care if I was shorted.
UPDATE: I bought another pack of screens after my first review and was given a free pack to offset the missing screens from before. I only needed three screens but the pack had eight.”
“There are a lot of similar places in El Cajon but the Price , Quality and Service here is the best all around. Family owned and operated is the reason why . No BS , just the best shop and best people.”

“Great prices and selection. I come here for my Salt Nicotine Menthol and Coils. I also recently bought another Smok 3000mah IQ RPM 80. I love the Mod. It’s the 4th one I have bought.They last about a year. After me dropping them every other day, that’s not bad. The beautiful woman that works there is always super welcoming and helpful. She gave me a deal on the new Mod She always takes the time to answer my questions. The man that works there is really nice too. He ordered me my NKD Mint Menthol 50. It’s sooo good! I like when business appreciates your business and will cut you a deal once in a while.”
