Bada Bing Smoke Shop

Bada Bing Smoke Shop has been a fixture at its North Scottsdale location for more than seven years, and the folks who shop here treat it like family. Ask anyone who comes through the door and they'll point you to owners Lucy and Ali, who run the place with the kind of warmth that turns first-time visitors into regulars. Lucy in particular gets a lot of love around town for taking her time and answering every question, no matter how many pieces you want to look at. Jake gets his share of thank-yous too, especially from anyone who's had him help pick out a glass piece.

The selection is where this shop really shines. We're talking glass pipes and water pipes ranging from everyday budget-friendly options all the way up to serious heady glass with hand-applied coatings. Beyond that, they carry vapes and disposables, e-liquid and vape juice, cigars, hookah and shisha, tobacco pipes, and a full wall of smoking accessories. The sticker selection is enormous, and the rolling papers and wraps cover just about anything you'd want.

Locals will tell you the prices here are some of the most competitive in Old Town, and more than a few people mention leaving with freebies and never feeling pressured to buy. The store stays clean, the atmosphere is easygoing, and the staff know their stuff. One regular who works in the same complex started coming in out of convenience and now won't shop anywhere else. That's the vibe here.

If there's one wish we've heard, it's that North Scottsdale being North Scottsdale, some folks would like to see a few more lower-priced options in the mix, but that hasn't slowed down the steady stream of people who make this their regular smoke shop in Scottsdale, Arizona.
