Frank's Smoke Shop

Frank's Smoke Shop is really two shops working side by side in Tucson, and locals will tell you that's part of the appeal. Next door to the main smoke shop sits a dedicated cigar store, and the word around Tucson is that the humidor there is something special. People who've walked in say the selection rivals what you'd find anywhere, with a modern setup and everything a cigar smoker could want, from the smokes themselves to professional home humidors and dozens of small cigar carriers.

We've even heard of folks scoring great deals on used cigar boxes. If you're after cigars, this is a name that comes up again and again. The main shop covers the rest of the ground.

You'll find vapes and disposable vapes, cigarettes, tobacco pipes and pipe tobacco, rolling papers, glass pipes and water pipes, plus the usual smoking accessories. Someone who stopped in for pipe tobacco described the staff in both shops as friendly and happy to share what they know, and that comes up a lot. Ask anyone who shops here and you'll hear the same thing about the guys behind the counter: kind, helpful, and quick to track down a hard-to-find item at a fair price.

One regular put it simply: "best set of guys, they are always so kind and helpful." Frank's has been around long enough to earn a solid reputation across Tucson, with locations that regulars treat as their home store. It's a busy, well-known spot, and while we've heard the odd grumble about a return or a mix-up at the register, the overwhelming sense from people around town is that this is one of the more dependable places to shop for cigars and smoking supplies in the area. For the cigar crowd especially, folks only wish they'd found it sooner.
