This place is fantastic. It’s well-maintained, my car is always spotless after I go through the wash, they have vacuums and towels, and basically anything else I could need to clean my car. The biggest bonus is that all of the employees are friendly and helpful, especially Michael. I wish they had a location a little farther north!

I go almost 2x a week lol. I love it. My daughters love it bc of the lights and the vacuums are powerful and conveniently placed on either side.

I bring both of my cars here and the staff is always friendly and have smiles on their faces. Your car will get clean without getting scratches allover it.

Overall happy with Soapy Joe’s classic monthly membership. I would like to see air hoses available at all locations for interior detailing and removing excess water on the outside.

Today was my first time visiting the Oceanside location. Their support of Veterans brought me out today and I’m glad that I tried them out. Great car wash. Great facility. I plan on becoming a Club Member soon. No matter which monthly tier option you choose, you can’t beat unlimited washes. Cheers, y’all. 💦

If I could give 0 stars, I would. Mustang owners, beware—DO NOT take your car to Soapy Joe’s! I recently moved to the area and signed up for a membership since it was conveniently on my way to work. Big mistake. Not long after, I noticed clear swirling damage on the hood of my car. I filed a complaint, expecting them to take accountability and help cover the cost of repairs. Instead, I was met with weeks of waiting, only to be told that “after their investigation” (which conveniently involved video footage they refused to share with me), it wasn’t their fault. Now, I’m stuck paying out of pocket for the damage they caused to both side of car hood and a chip at the side door, on top of the two months of subpar washes that likely contributed to the problem. Soapy Joe’s is a joke—save yourself the headache and go elsewhere.

Didn’t allow me to pay for vacuum use only . My car was clean and only needed vacuum, which i was willing to pay the full car wash amount. But still declined service.

Always 5 star here! I go 20 minutes out of my way to go to this specific Soapy's (over the one by my house) because not only is it the best (always stocked, good vacuums, bathroom accessible), surrounded by great fast food, but the service and employees are super friendly helpful and professional! Been going here for almost 6 or 7 years now. I hopped on the new $1 deal this month (if you haven't you are dumb) and *JULIA* and *JOSE(?)* helped me out tonight and they were super patient with me and really great! Great employees like them are what makes Soapy the best over its competitors 😊😊😊

Soapy Joes is our place for car wash and we love it. Unfortunately today we’re not sure what is happening with the wash machine, our car was not clean after passing through the wash process and kept traces of dirt all around it… way weird.

Michael was amazing! From start to finish, he made the entire process smooth and stress-free. He was professional, honest, and upfront about everything — no pressure or hidden surprises. You can tell he really cares about his customers and goes the extra mile to make sure you leave satisfied. I definitely recommend working with Michael at The Car Cash if you want great service and a fair deal!

Johnny is the goat. Was having issues with my tag but he took care of it under a minute and had me on my way. 10/10 customer service that’s why I love coming back here. O’side soapy joes is one of the best.

Jonny and Anthony helped me out today and were AWESOME! Brought my car in filthy, but they both showed genuine attention and care for my vehicle and helped me sign up with the membership best suited for me. Will 100% be back to this location specifically because of the exceptional service!!

We went for the one-time Super wash ($20). It was good but not powerful enough to remove the salt and sand from parking near the beach in Oceanside. We did like that they gave us a deodorizer and free 5-minute vacuum plus clean towels to wipe down the car. I would come back.

Will NEVER go back or recommend Soapy Joe’s! This company has absolutely no accountability. I went in for a wash like I’ve done before, with my car in perfect condition aside from a small, sealed chip low on the passenger side of the windshield. After going through the wash, I pulled over to dry my car—only to find a massive crack on the driver’s side of the windshield. Clearly, something from their equipment (yes, those sponge arms that hit the car) struck the glass. But when I reported it, Soapy Joe’s claimed their surveillance (which customers can’t even view) showed no wrongdoing and blamed it on the small chip on the opposite side of the windshield. Total cop-out. They’re quick to take your money, but take zero responsibility for damage that happens on their property. It’s a “use at your own risk” business—and that risk is 100% yours. I’ve officially cancelled my membership, and I urge others to do the same. Stay away from Soapy Joe’s unless you’re OK with paying for damage they won’t cover! 😡

Didn't get much service, the was qas aggressive and a little scary. Vacuums did great. No air hoses. Liked the fresh towels.
