What to bring: ID, every time
In British Columbia you must be 19 or older to buy vaping products, and Vape Father is an adult-only store. Under-19s can't come into the store, even with an adult. Bring valid government-issued photo ID, such as:
- BC driver's licence
- BC Services Card with photo
- Passport
We check ID regardless of how old you look. If you don't have it with you, we can't complete the sale. The same rule applies to delivery.
What we carry
The store stocks the same range as our online shop, so you can check stock online before you head over:
- Disposable vapes from Elf Bar, Allo, Sniper, Geek Bar and RIFBAR
- Pod kits from Uwell and OXVA
- Replacement pods for RELX and Vaporesso devices
- E-liquids and salt nic e-liquids
- Accessories
If you are not sure which pods fit your device, bring the device with you and staff will check. Our pod compatibility guide covers the most common questions.
Can't get there before midnight? Order delivery
If you are home for the night, you don't have to go out. Vape Father delivers the same day across Burnaby and up to 20 km from the store, every day from 9am to 12am. Delivery is free, with an $80 minimum order. The driver checks photo ID at the door and the name must match the order. Read how same-day delivery works or go straight to our vape delivery page.
Where you can and can't vape around Metrotown
BC's rules on where vaping is allowed are the same as for smoking. A few that matter in a busy area like Metrotown:
- No vaping inside public places and workplaces, including malls, stores, cafés and the common areas of apartment and condo buildings.
- No vaping within 6 metres of doorways, open windows and air intakes of public places and workplaces.
- No vaping on school property, at any time.
- Local bylaws can be stricter than provincial rules, and the stricter rule applies.
Inside our store, BC rules allow customers to test a product they intend to buy, with no more than two customers sampling at a time. BC rules also allow staff to demonstrate devices but not to use them.
Parking and getting there late
Kingsway is busy into the evening. If you are driving, check posted parking signs on side streets before leaving your car. If you are coming by transit, Metrotown Station is the simplest option, and the walk to Kingsway is short and well lit.
Checking stock before you come
The quickest way is to look at the product page on our site, which shows what is available to order. You can also call or text (236) 999-5334 and ask about a specific flavour or device before you make the trip.
Late-night shopping checklist
- Bring government-issued photo ID.
- Check the product page or text us to confirm stock.
- If you need pods, bring your device or know its exact model name.
- Arrive before 12am. If you can't, order delivery instead.
Late-night questions we get at the counter
"My pod is leaking. Can you check it?"
Yes. Bring the device and the pod. Staff can check whether it is seated properly, whether the pod is the right type for the device, and whether it is time for a new one. Our pod compatibility guide covers the most common mix-ups.
"Which disposable lasts the longest?"
Look at the e-liquid volume rather than the puff count. Puff ratings are manufacturer estimates and are measured differently by each brand. Our puff counts explained guide shows how to compare them, and staff can talk you through the options in store.
"Can I charge my device here?"
Most high-capacity disposables and pod kits charge with a USB-C cable. If you've forgotten yours, ask; we stock accessories.
Nearby areas we serve in person
Customers come to the store from across South Burnaby, including Metrotown, Maywood, Marlborough, Central Park, Patterson, Royal Oak, Highgate and Edmonds, and from East Vancouver along Kingsway. If you are further away, the delivery service covers all of Burnaby and up to 20 km from the store.
