The first time I went to this vape shop, I almost lost because it's a bit small and there's always…read morea huge mass of people outside. Even though it's along a main road, I had to double back to find it. This place is the best example of a neighborhood vape shop. Probably the most welcoming and accomodating one I have visited, the small stall has a couple of makeshift tables and benches occupied by people discussing mods, builds and juice, all covered by a tarp. It's far from classy. The regulars there come in basketball shorts and slippers. But the moment you go there, you immediately feel welcome and just belong. Their actual vape goods selection is not as wide an extensive as others, but they have the basics and enough for the average vaper. When you go there, wear shorts. You'll fit right in.

This is my go-to shop when I need anything vape-related: hardware like mods and atomizers, wire,…read morecotton, and juice or even vaping advice or help with rebuilding my tank. First off, the stall is very accessible, given that the mall has direct access to the Shaw MRT station. While most of their hardware are clones, they do carry legit locally-made atomizers and even put in a good or two about the makers. Not only do they have smaller gauge wires, something not too commonly available, but they are also one of the cheapest ones to buy from. And they don't rip off people by selling Muji cotton at exorbitant prices. Their juice selection is wide, and I love how their testers are organized by brand. Also, their stall is not in the middle of the mall, so you don't feel inconsiderate when trying out the juice. The people there, Jhondo and Jonro, are always friendly and willing to help you out in any way, from suggesting builds to coiling and wicking, to recommending juice based on your preferences. And lastly, they have a couch. For when you just want to sit down comfortably and chat with their regulars. The next time you need anything for your setup, it's a good place to visit.

Vaping has grown to be such a large fad with the technology getting ever better and people getting…read morelured with the promise of satisfying their nicotine fix in a healthier way. While now one really knows how healthy (or dangerous) e-cigs really are, as it stands they seem to be the safer alternative to smoking. And of all the shops around Manila that cater to the vaping crowd, in my opinion Chief Vapers in Theatremall is one of the top. This is because they carry a wide selection of e-juices both local and international. My personal favorite brands are Cloud Chaser and Mason's Drop because they carry really great RY4 hybrids (Bavarian RY4 and Strawberry4, respectively). Chief Vapers also have a good variety of e-cig mods and if you're new to the hobby, the owners and staff are really helpful in starting you up. If mods aren't your thing, the great Ego One is sold here as well.

While a bit small, this stall makes up for it with their wares…read more They have a good selection of hardware, although in limited quantities. Their juice selection is surprisingly very good and diverse with some affordable imported ones, and intriguing local ones - they have a suman-flavored juice that tastes so much like suman you'd look for powdered sugar. The people there actually know how to sell and push products, and they know all the specs of whatever they sell - from juice ratios to best builds for an atomizer. You are likely to stay far longer than you wanted because they entertain you very well. If you're in the area, it's a good place to visit.

This place is not for the average vaper. One of the most expensive vape joints in the metro, mostly…read morebecause they carry exotic stuff and imported juice. Probably the only place to buy legit vaporsharks and their sharksins, along with other dna40 mods and atomizers that run in the thousands. A good place to get juice though. They have all the usuals, plus a few imported ones like Jolly Rogers and Cuttwoods. Its good for a quick fix, but if you plan to buy hardware and are on a budget, best go somewhere else.

My go-to place for all my vape needs. They offer both imported and local all of which are priced…read moreright, I know because I checked the prices of their suppliers from outside the country. You can too! Just go to the website of whatever company it is and factor in the shipping cost, taxes and duties. They're good people and they'll help you with whatever you need whether you're a big spender or a thrifty buyer. They've helped me out of a pickle more than I can count and this is a store that I trust. They'll take care of you for sure! This place definitely looks and feels like a "Joint" where you could hang out and have a good time. The decor pays homage to the Rasta life and anything else they deem cool, deserves a spot there. It looks intimidating because the place looks nice and the mods and the products are top quality. They do not endorse a product they do not believe in and if there's a foreseeable problem, they'll tell you before you buy it or if a problem arises, you can go there or call them and they will help you or tell you how to proceed. This is a review to help other Vapers find their way to one of the best vape shop in the country. They can also ship it to wherever you are!

Run by magician Jeff Tam, Dark Vaper is a pretty cool vape shop. While a hot box like all vape…read moreshops, the interior is all wood, and doesn't feel very seedy. Most of their hardware are locally-made originals - meaning a bit expensive, although we were able to buy a clone, probably the last one they have. Their juice selection is very interesting though. Not only do they have the usuals, but they have a few in-house brands, with amusing names like Menthol Hospital. They also have a few brands I don't see in other shops. It's a shame their testers are not organized so everything is in one box and you'd have to hunt for what you might want to test. A very worthwhile vape shop to visit if you're in the area.

So one weekend I was looking for juice for my vape because I was tired of seeing the same varieties…read moreall the time. My wandering brought me to this place. And the place is mind-blowing. Needless to say, my wandering has stopped. First off, all of their juice is made in-house with their proprietary brand. Their flavorings and nicotine are imported from Italy and the US respectively, which means that their flavors are different from other local brands. Second, the variety is amazing. From tobacco to fruity, mentholated and pastry, to drink variants (the Monster juice tastes like the real thing!), and they have testers for everything. They also have zero to high (18mg) nicotine levels to further enhance your vaping experience. That said, their juices are on the expensive side, going as much as P300 for a 10ml bottle. It's not an all-day vape, but makes for a very good tweener when you get vaper's tongue. Ms Dedet, sister of the owner who was manning the place, is very lively and patient. She recommend me juices based on my preferences, and then noticing a pattern, would suggest flavors outside of my normal range. I ended up buying more than what I had initially planned (and budgeted). A good break from the monotonous flavors of other local brands.
