    Great place for good tasting water. The service is excellent!! The price is right and you always leave with the owner helping you to your car. I love supporting this business! It is a rare gem in terms of service!

    I used to work right down the street from here. This man's water might be 5c a gallon more than the grocery store but he rinses out your bottles, fills em up, and puts em on a cart for you to take to your vehicle. Ladies, I've seen him carry bottles out for you so don't hesitate to ask.

    If I still went to the Rancho PQ area at all, I'd still be getting my water from the Asian water man. Support your local water store!

    I have never received better service at a water store in my life!  The owner (well, I think he is the owner.  A older Asian man) is great!  You walk into the store and he's already ready to meet you.  He takes your bottles of water.  Cleans them.  Fills them.  Rings you up. Loads the filled bottles onto a cart.  Pushes the cart out to your car.  Loads them into your car.  Smiles & says thank you.

    Man, BEST SERVICE EVER!!!  I come here all the way from Mira Mesa just because his service is just so great every time =)

    We used to go to The Water Lady in Hillcrest, which later moved to North Park, but we moved to RB in '05, so we were lucky to find this water store.  We liked The Water Lady, who was extremely friendly and outgoing, and the prices were reasonable for really good tasting water.  

    I was surprised that I could have an even better water store experience at AC Water Store, which is now our regular drinking water source for home.  A quiet and very helpful Asian gentleman always serves us.  I'll call him the manager since I don't know his name, and he is usually there by himself.  He rinses the containers with a special machine, then fills them with water from the dispensing station.  I believe the prices are the same as The Water Lady's, and they both offer the pre-paid account option, which is what we continue to use.  Our account is updated by hand in a 3-ring binder.  Convenient hours, at least for us.

    On a few occasions, my toddler has fallen asleep on the way there.  As I normally park near the front of the store, the observant manager must have noticed that I was trying to carry my daughter out of the car.  He has approached my car with a cart, picked up my empty containers, and wheeled them into the store.  After rinsing and filling the containers, he has loaded the filled containers into my car's trunk.  Now that's full service :)

    I've been getting water here for over 2 years now.  Price is cheap and the water tastes good.  I have also purchased most of my containers here too.  Owner and his son both do a good job.

    Good hours: open 7 days: Mon-Sat to 7:30pm, Sunday til 6:30p

    I get my water here , the owner is a very sweet man and even will walk my jugs out to my car for me sometimes.
    I love this place. I used to live in North Park and went to the Water Lady then I went to the Water Store in College area and was so happy to find this place in PQ. Love it

    We've been getting our water here for years.  The owner is the nicest man.  He fills my bottles and he takes them to my car for me.  Great service with a smile.   AND best of all the water tastes great!!!
