Smoker Friendly

Smoker Friendly is a tobacco shop in Chillicothe, Ohio that's earned a solid reputation around town, and the drive-through is one of the first things locals mention. It's an easy stop when you don't feel like getting out of the car, and plenty of regulars do exactly that. The shelves cover the basics and then some: cigarettes, tobacco pipes, vapes and disposable vapes, vaporizers, and the smoking accessories that fill in the gaps, right down to lighter leashes.

People who shop here often single out the electronic vaporizers as a good value, and we've heard the staff take their time walking newcomers through the options and answering questions without rushing. There's also a member rewards program and the owners have been known to run random deals when they're overstocked and clearing shelf space. William gets a mention as one of the folks who's polite and patient when you call in.

Ask anyone in Chillicothe and most will tell you the service is friendly and the prices are fair, especially on the vape side. We'll be straight, though: locals are a little split. A few folks have run into a less warm welcome up front, and one regular noted a run of disposables that tasted burnt sooner than expected.

That's the honest picture, and it hasn't stopped a steady crowd of regulars from coming back. This is a 21+ shop, it's handicap accessible, and it's pet and service-animal friendly within reason. If you're after a straightforward tobacco and vape stop with the convenience of a drive-through, Smoker Friendly is worth a look.
