Xhale City - Mall of Georgia

Xhale City - Mall of Georgia has been serving Buford since 2013, and the word around town is that this is one of the better smoke shops in the area. Regulars keep coming back for the clean, well-organized space and a staff that genuinely knows the products. One local summed it up perfectly, calling it "the Target of Vape shops" because you walk in for one thing and leave with a full bag.

Ask anyone who shops here and a few names come up again and again. Autumn gets high praise for spot-on recommendations and a welcoming attitude, and Matthew (Matt to the regulars) is the one people mention when they want an honest opinion and a few laughs while they browse. Sav, Eliot, and Phil round out a crew that folks describe as friendly and easy to deal with. As one person put it, Xhale City hires genuinely good people.

The selection is a big part of the draw. They stock vapes, e-liquid and vape juice, and a wide wall of disposables, along with CBD and hemp products, cigars, hookah and shisha, glass pipes and water pipes, rolling papers, and all the accessories that go with them. Brands on the shelves include SMOK, Vaporesso, Geek Vape, Voopoo, Lost Mary, Kado Bar, Pax, Lookah, and Puffco. Locals also point to the regular promotions and fair prices as reasons they stop in here even when there's another location closer to home.

Not every visit lands the same, and we've heard the occasional grumble about service on an off day. But the overall picture is a busy, well-liked shop with a helpful team and a deep selection. For a vape shop in Buford worth building a habit around, this one earns its reputation. Stop in and ask for Matthew or Autumn if you want a guiding hand.
