Up In Smoke

Up In Smoke has been part of the Orlando smoke shop scene for years, and it has earned a solid reputation with a four-plus star standing built on a couple hundred people weighing in. The thing locals mention first is the layout: most of the products here are self serve, which is unusual for a smoke shop around here. As one regular put it, having the store set up that way makes browsing feel like a privilege rather than a chore. You can walk the shelves, take your time, and actually see what you are getting.

The selection is deep. We hear it runs the full range: vapes and disposables, e-liquid and vape juice, cigarettes, cigars, glass pipes and water pipes, tobacco pipes, and the everyday accessories that go with all of it. Popular rechargeable vapes are stocked in quantity, and people who shop here often say the pricing on them beats what they have paid at other Orlando vape shops. One person who comes in a couple times a week swears by the value, calling it something close to a lesser-known option.

Ask anyone who shops here regularly and a few names come up. Nick gets called out for making sure folks leave with exactly what they came for. Travis is the one people go to with questions, and the word is he can answer just about anything, backed up by a couple of associates who are easy to talk to. There is also a morning guy with glasses who a lot of regulars look forward to seeing.

More than one person describes the place as welcoming enough that they stop in after work just for the friendly faces. Now, we will be straight with you: locals are a little split on the counter service, and we have heard the odd grumble about attitude on a slow day. The steady stream of people who keep coming back for the selection, the fair prices, and the folks behind the counter tells the bigger story. For a well-stocked tobacco shop in Orlando where you can actually browse, this one is worth a stop.
