Ollie's Smoke & Vape

If you are shopping the south side of Colorado Springs, Ollie's Smoke & Vape on Security Boulevard is one people keep sending their friends to, and for good reason. The word around town is that this is one of the highest-rated smoke shops in the area, and the folks who shop here will tell you it earns that reputation with service first. The crew knows their stock cold and takes the time to walk you through it. Ask for Courtney, Cheyenne, Holly, Bree, or Nessa and you will get patient, friendly help, whether you are picking up your first lighter or hunting for something specific.

More than one regular has mentioned walking in unsure and walking out with exactly what they came for, no pressure and no upsell. The selection is what keeps people coming back. Locals have grabbed Puffco gear, RAW papers, glass joint tips, and terp pearls here, alongside a solid wall of rolling papers, glass pipes, water pipes, dab rigs, grinders, and plenty of disposables and e-liquid for vape mods. Someone always seems to find the thing they didn't expect to, and the shelves are stocked deep enough that "do you have it" usually gets a yes.

The space itself has personality. People talk about the purple walls and lights that give it a little boutique feel, and there's a browse-worthy spread of imported sodas, chips, and candies to look through while the team sorts you out. One regular called it a judgement-free zone, which seems to sum up the vibe folks keep describing. Prices are comparable to what you'd find elsewhere, which makes it an easy stop for south-side regulars.

If you are after a vape shop in Colorado Springs where the staff actually care, people here will point you straight to Ollie's.
