Living Water

Water has no taste, no color, no odor; it cannot be defined, art relished while ever mysterious. Not necessary to life, but rather life itself. It fills us with a gratification that exceeds the delight of the senses. — Antoine de Saint-​Exupery
There are two groups of people in a great divide over the benefits of alkaline water, aka hippie water. Believers tout it’s ability to slow aging and cure infectious diseases including cancer by regulating the body’s PH level. The FDA frowns heavily on these statements and naysayers claim that drinking it is the same as adding baking soda to your body. Stomach acid is what helps us digest food after all.
To break the tie, I did a scientific test and offered alkaline water to my kitties. They have not been brainwashed, yet they began to drink much more water. Their verdict, Alkaline waters is the good stuff.
My inner hippie wants to drink water with no taste or color that makes me healthier, and Living water simply tastes better than any other water. I am a fan of great tasting water, and if it keeps me healthy count me in.
Living water is a great place to buy both alkaline and purified water. They offer a complimentary bottle wash station and self serve dispensers. I prefer paying at the end versus putting a bunch of coins into a machine even if it costs a few pennies more than the alkaline vending machines available elsewhere.
While Alkaline water may not be a cure for cancer it certainly delights my senses, and it keeps my kitties happy too.

This water store is truly the best. It’s a small gem in a shopping center that would go unnoticed if not for word of mouth. I have been going here for over a year and personally love this place. The water is delicious and the owner is a great guy. He usually helps me load the water jugs onto a cart and walk it to my car since I have a 10 month old. He is always in a great mood and runs a credit system so you can easily pick up water without exchanging money every time. Best water in North County!

Great water! The staff is also very friendly and helpful. Good prices too!

After spending way too much on Brita filters that never actually seemed to filter the water, we were excited to discover this gem of a store just up the street. The water, as everyone says, tastes amazing. We are drinking so much more nowadays because of it. The 3 gallon jug you buy from the store fits perfectly in our fridge, so there’s always perfectly chilled water at the push of a button — way easier than lugging the Brita filter in and out. My husband couldn’t be bothered to do it so he would drink the nasty tap water and mix it in lemonade so he couldn’t taste how bad it was. I know… A 3 gallon BPA free container at Living Water is $ 19 — cheaper than Amazon. I also love the pay ahead option and even more that it is organized on little index cards. It seems very personal and charming to have something done on pencil and paper nowadays.
Conveniently located next to Gordy’s Bakery… yum!

I absolutely adore this place. We switched to alkaline drinking water from here and feel so much better. Water tastes amazing, too. The man who is always there with his Corgi dog is very friendly and helpful. I usually get 10 gallons of alkaline water and 3 of R/​O water (for the animals, so they don’t get UTIs). My body feels more energetic, healthier, and I am drinking much more water these days!

The water was delicious. Did a blind taste test and this was way tastier than the last water we got elsewhere. 2.50 for a 5 gallon container.

I enjoy coming to this spot to get my Alkaline water refills. The gentleman & his Welsh Corgi, Bear, who run the store are always quiet but friendly. Highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a water that truly hydrates their cells =).

I“ve never tasted water better than the alkaline water that is found at Living Waters!
The price is not too bad and the service is excellent.
Nice to support a local business owner instead of multi national corporations that buy up all the water around the world.
I strongly endorse Living Waters

As others have mentioned, this store has turned us into water snobs.
After drinking this water, nothing else will do. All the bottled, pure «spring water» you get at the grocery store will taste weird and nasty compared to Living Water.
Super friendly owners, and a happy little Corgi is sometimes there to greet you too.

Alkaline water cloudy? I was so excited to get some alkaline water finally so close to home and it comes out cloudy :/​I don’t know why, I have glass 3 gallon jugs.

Great water, clean store, and super friendly staff/​owner! gamsahabnida

This water is incredible. My husband and I used to live across the street but we recently moved to Oceanside and we still come to get water here. The couple who own it are the nicest, most honest people. What we do is pay for several gallons at a time and they keep track of it – it’s quick and easy. Love that they have machines to shoot water up the water bottles to clean them and especially love that they have carts so you don’t have to lug the full jugs if water back to your car! All in all if you’re looking for delicious, clean and SAFE water, come here.

Easy to park! Very affordable. Great tasting water. Alkaline water last longer than other alkaline waters. Love to pay in advance and get cheaper water & quicker refills —
Please have extra patience with the owner who speaks broken English — he is Korean, he really cares about you getting the best water possible!!!

I had been looking for a place to get good water in the area and I came across Living Water. The owner is very polite and gives great customer service. I bought a 3 gallon jug off him and he went and cleaned it up for me, filled it with water and wiped it down.
He has a huge visible filter system for you to see with 7 different filters that water goes through. The water taste great. I had gone to Jimbo’s and filled up with their water system but it doesn’t compare to the quality at Living Water. There are plenty of water dispensers there for you to purchase depending on your needs. I ended up buying a porcelain dispenser with a stand from him to use in my office. It is important to get good quality water and it’s very hard to trust tap and bottled water these days. I highly recommend Living Water to everyone.

I am so pleased that I found this store. Many of the families from where I send my kids to school also get their water here (so does the school itself). The water tastes great and the owner So Yung (sp?) is very polite and professional. Each time I arrive with my six bottles he helps me to fill and wipe down. Excellent service.

The best water in the land, hands down! We prefer this over Sparkletts or Arrowhead, or any of the fancy stuff. Thank you, Living Water!

I too am addicted to this water. It’s so pure, I have a hard time drinking anything else. This store has turned me into a water snob and I’m ok with it. Which is probably why I have been going to this store for 8 years now.
I suggest buying a package deal, it’s cheap when you compare it what you’d spend on bottled water at the store. And you reuse your bottle. Don’t worry though, they have a purification process before your refill your bottle to kill any bacteria.
Doesn’t get much better than this place!

I have been filling up my bottles at the Living Water store for about 6 years now. I started back when the store was at its old location. The water here is the best stuff you can get. I was buying cases of 2 liter bottles for work, etc and I did the math and realized that I could save around $ 300 a year just by using this water and using a refillable bottle! Furthermore, it tastes better than bottled water. Not a bad deal. My wife, son and I go through about 20 gallons a week. I highly recommend this store to anyone who is considering filling up their bottle in front of the grocery store. This stuff is better.
