Charles Von der Ahe opened the first Vons grocery store in Los Angeles in 1906, and the chain’s floral tradition continues today inside the Pacific Beach Vons at 1702 Garnet Ave, San Diego, CA 92109. Now a subsidiary of Albertsons Companies, this Garnet Avenue location houses a staffed floral department that designs custom bouquets, corsages, boutonnieres, and wedding centerpieces alongside its everyday grab-and-go arrangements. The department carries the exclusive debi lilly design line, a curated collection of vases, candles, and coordinated floral accessories not available at independent florists. Grocery runs here combine naturally with a stop at Petco on Balboa Avenue for pet-supply errands on the same trip. Vons Floral offers same-day delivery throughout Pacific Beach and surrounding San Diego ZIP codes, and customers can order ahead online or through the Vons app for scheduled pickup. The parent store earned a 99-out-of-100 health department score and features a Starbucks, bakery, deli, growler station, and Wells Fargo branch alongside the floral counter. Seasonal inventory rotates to match holidays and local events, with roses dominating around Valentine’s Day and sunflower-heavy arrangements appearing each summer. Families picking up birthday cakes from the Vons bakery regularly add a floral arrangement, and dinner supplies from Filippis Pizza Grotto Pacific Beach down the road round out a celebration. Vons Floral is open daily from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. inside the larger store, which operates from 5 a.m. to midnight. It remains one of the most convenient floral options in Pacific Beach for anyone already running grocery errands on Garnet Avenue.
