Vape + Smoke Shop

If you're after a vape shop in Glendale where the people behind the counter actually take the time with you, this is one folks talk about a lot. Vape + Smoke Shop has earned close to a perfect reputation across the area, and it's easy to see why once you've been in. The word around Glendale is that the crew here treats first-timers and seasoned mod users the same way, with patience and no pressure to buy. A big part of that comes down to names people remember.

Regulars ask for Joseph, who has a knack for walking newcomers through their first setup and getting into the details of juice flavors, combinations and sweeteners so you leave with something you'll actually enjoy. Scott gets the same kind of praise, and one person who came in put it simply: they felt seen and heard, like they were talking to an old friend. Miguel is another name that comes up for the kind of welcoming, no-question-is-a-dumb-question service that keeps people loyal. The selection covers plenty of ground.

You'll find vapes and mods, a wide range of e-liquid and vape juice including their own house juice that people say beats most shops around, disposable vapes, glass pipes and water pipes, tanks, coils and the accessories to go with them. Ask anyone who shops here and they'll mention the prices, which run among the best in the area, with discounts that make it worth the trip. If they don't have exactly what you need, the guys will try to help you find an alternative or order it in quick. There's a relaxed, mellow feel to the place, and we've heard there's a cozy little lounge toward the back.

They open early and stay open late, which is handy when the other shops around town have already closed. One person who moved out from California was worried about finding their usual gear and left saying this was their new spot. That's the kind of loyalty this Glendale shop tends to earn.
