The Right Shop

The Right Shop has earned a strong following in Raleigh, and it shows. This is one of the highest-rated smoke shops in the area, and the word around town is that the selection and the service are what keep people coming back. Locals describe it as clean and well stocked, with a wide range of tobacco, cigars, vapes, e-liquid and vape juice, disposables, glass pipes and water pipes, and all the smoking accessories you might be after.

The variety of vape juice in particular gets a lot of praise, with plenty of flavors and styles to sort through. If there is one name people mention again and again, it is Maireny. Ask anyone who shops here and you will hear how patient and genuinely helpful she is, walking folks through the options until they find exactly what they came for.

Regulars talk about her the way you talk about a favorite bartender, and G gets the same kind of shout-outs for professional, attentive service. More than one person has walked out impressed enough to say they will drive back the next time they are near Raleigh. The drive-through is a real convenience, and it is part of why this spot works so well for a quick stop.

We will be honest, the experience isn't flawless for everyone, and locals are a little split on the counter service depending on who is working and what day you catch them on. The overwhelming sentiment is positive, and the deals get called out often enough that value is clearly part of the draw. For a tobacco shop in Raleigh with a broad selection, friendly regulars behind the counter, and the ease of a drive-through, The Right Shop has more than earned its reputation.
