“The night guy that works here was very welcoming and friendly. The first time I've felt like I wasn't a burden to be in there. He wore glasses, give that guy a raise!”
“Amazing place, my friend always have the best customer service. Helps me find what I need and he always have the best stock and variety. Very recommended. The prices are always good. Not a single complaint, clean, always very clean.”
“Roger was so helpful in helping me pick something out for my friends! I didn’t know what they liked, but it was their wedding and I wanted to get them little party favors. 5 stars!!!”
“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.”

“Yesterday, I was in need of a vape. It was a little early in the morning and my regular smoke shop wasn't open yet. I live near this shop but had never stopped by. I decided to stop by this place thinking the item I wanted would probably be overpriced and might not even have what I want. It was a great decision. Guy was cool and I paid less than I was expecting. Cheaper than my regular smoke shop as well. This place is now my go to.”
“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.”
“I’m from Hawaii and the Vape laws are different there as well as Texas where I spent the last3 years before coming to San Diego. I’m used to having my Vape eJuice custom made to order at any nicotine level up to 100mg ( too dangerous to mess with ) and I did 24mg for years. Get to San Diego and all that ended. I bounced from shop to shop trying to find a shop that is not only helpful with answering my many seemingly stupid questions but was courteous in answering and even went beyond. I’m a 60+ Transgender person too; shamelessly flaunting myself. Other places were rude with me. Not Alvy’s. They treat me like any other person. Give me great deals on eJuice I actually like and devices to use it with. I don’t miss any of my old eJuice or Vapes. I enjoy spending my money at Alveys because they make everything worth it. I won’t shop anywhere else for my Vaping needs and I turn everyone on to Alveys when asked about Vapes. Long live Alveys ❤️”
“Shop has a large selection, with something for everyone. A great place to grab lighters, backwoods, dabbing equipment, and for good conversations about our herbal community.”
“Great selection of stouts porters and brown ales always wish they would have their beers price labeled some missing price and some New beers weren't even in the system but OUT for sale. Happened a few times since going there.no problemo but that's a sale missed.”
“Love this place ! Buy the Mexican coffee is a must and smoke your favorite Cigars. You will smell like smoke but who cares cuz your buz will make you fell great !!! Love u hard work !!!!”
“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.”
“Simple the best prices in town. Been going there for years they have too many products to mention. The employee are awesome day and night. Ask for Al he's the best that there is!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Very friendly, clean store, nice selection of popular cigars in a walk-in humidor. Prices are a little lower than other stores. Knowledgeable of products they sell”
“Nyala is a top notch smoke shop with literally everything you could ask for. Steve is the nicest guy and is always available. No waits. This is your new one stop shop.”
“Parking lot and spots are very tight. Hassle to get in and out of especially if going back west.*Update- was hoping to get information on tequila types for an important client meeting... although super hospitable eager to assist, little knowledge of spirits. Thinking...If Bevmo 'the place of spirits' had spirit training. Not just for the employees but 1 eve a week an info hour on a spirit. Ie history, different uses and types. Just a thought.”
“Great selection of things. For me personally, I can be picky about the rolling paper I use. Even though its not much of a big item, the store has a really good variety of different brands, sizes, and types. In general, they just have a lot of cool things for sell.”
“Thank for helping us, we came in explained a previous vape we bought was autofiring but no big deal. The man behind the counter was extremely friendly and helped us with new ones. Appreciate the kindness”
“I have lived in lakeside since 1977 an I love living here.. I started going to the lakeside smoke shop for about 3 years now. Danny has been there almost every time I have went there an he's very helpful an he always gives you good prices. Even on things that aren't on sale. I have dealt with Danny an his mother an I believe his sister aswell. They are all very nice an helpful, they have a good selection on anything you want to buy. An some things I bought that were cracked, chipped or just wanted to return ,I never had problems even without a receipt .you always get store credit k or got to trade for something else without a problem.”
“Very nice store! Went in and got a few cigars for my fiancés birthday and Mark was a great help! My bf loved his recommendations. Great prices too! Definitely coming back here!”
“The older guy who has white hair slim and works some evenings is horrible! I wanted to lok at a tray with some dabber tips on it and refused to bring it to the counter said i could see them from a distance. The owner and the you guy always bring the tray over to the counter for me. He acted like it was a tray of gold rings or something. Im giving it 5 stars because the larger gentleman who I believe is the owner is awesome always smiling dosent rush you and is great at his job.”
“This place is awesome! The care about their customer base and does their best to accommodate everyone. I called them tonight with a few questions and the employee Frank, totally helped me out. The value of knowledge and pricing of this business is the best I've found around. Really fair prices. They aren't trying to only make a profit. The selection is my favorite part (aside from the employees). They will do their best to find personal requests from customers. HIGHLY recommended this business!! It's worth the drive if you're not close. Thanks Irie Coast!! You guys are the best.”
