Vape & Smoke

Vape & Smoke has become a real local favorite in Jacksonville, and a lot of that comes down to the new owner, Sam. Ask anyone who shops here and you'll hear the same thing: he knows his stuff and he genuinely takes care of the people who walk through his door. One regular came in with his mother looking for a few specific things, and Sam not only helped them find everything but pointed out a couple of items they ended up liking too.

Patient, professional, and happy to explain how things work. That patience shows up with the hookah selection especially. We've heard from folks who came in unsure about what they were buying and left with a setup that works great, because Sam walked them through each piece and what it does.

People who shop here point to the good prices and the discounts as a big reason they keep coming back, and more than one has said they don't bother shopping anywhere else. The word around Jacksonville is that this is one of the cleanest smoke shops in town, which counts for a lot. Now, locals are a little split on the service depending on who's behind the counter and when they came in, and a few have wished the doors opened earlier or stayed open later.

If you're making a special trip, it's not a bad idea to call ahead first.
