Outer Vapes

Outer Vapes is one of those spots in Kill Devil Hills that regulars talk up as much for its personality as its shelves. It's a vape shop, sure, with a big lineup of vapes, e-liquid and vape juice, disposables, and all the smoking accessories you'd expect, but ask anyone who's wandered in and they'll tell you it's really more of an experience. There's handmade artwork throughout, including custom burnt wood pieces you can have personalized, plus a couple of friendly cats who tend to hold court around the store. More than one visitor has mentioned that a cat's absence was the only thing missing from an otherwise great trip.

The people are what folks around here rave about. Christine, one of the owners, gets named again and again as amazing and endlessly helpful, and the same goes for the whole team. Locals point you toward Danni, Taylor, and April by name for genuinely warm, no-pressure service. We've heard about a couple who had someone accidentally break something on the way to the register, and instead of making a fuss the shop waved it off and threw in a few discounts.

When a phone mix-up left one visitor unsure about what they wanted, the crew sorted it out with free samples until they found the right fit. That kind of hospitality is why people driving through, some heading back toward Virginia, make a point of stopping in. Beyond the vape side, the store carries a wide range of CBD products, and the grab bags get a lot of love. The word around Kill Devil Hills is that the prices are more than fair and the selection runs deep.

One out-of-towner summed it up by saying they'd give ten stars if they could. A couple of people have run into odd hours or a posted "be right back" sign, so a quick call ahead never hurts. All in all, a well-liked vape shop in Kill Devil Hills that's worth the visit for the goods and the good company alike.
