Cloud Vape & Cigar

Cloud Vape & Cigar has built a real following in Winston-Salem, and it's easy to hear why once you talk to the folks who shop there. The word around town is that this place carries pretty much everything a smoker could want: vapes and disposables, a deep wall of e-liquid and vape juice, cigars, glass pipes and water pipes, plus all the accessories to go with them. They also keep kratom in stock. One regular put it plainly, calling it the spot to go for anything legal in North Carolina, and another who's been coming in for months swears the inventory and prices beat the other shops around.

Prices are a big part of the draw. Ask anyone who shops here and you'll hear about the deals, with promotions running seemingly every week, sometimes every day. That kind of value keeps people coming back. If they don't have what you're after, locals will tell you the manager makes a point of tracking it down and having it waiting on your next visit.

That willingness to go the extra mile goes a long way. The staff get a lot of love too. Megan comes up by name as a friendly face who gets you in and out quick, and the crew overall has a reputation for making people feel comfortable, like part of a community rather than just another sale. We'll be honest: a couple of folks have felt some of the newer staff could know the product a little better, and one person ended up swapping a piece after a mix-up.

It's a fair note, but the overall feeling around here stays warm and positive. They stay open late, until 11pm every day, which makes Cloud Vape & Cigar a handy stop when other shops in Winston-Salem have already locked up. Worth a look if you want good selection and honest prices.
