Cloud Nine

Cloud Nine has built a strong following among Columbus smoke shop regulars, and it is easy to see why. The word around town is that this is one of the more well-liked spots in the city, with a Google reputation that speaks for itself. Ask anyone who shops here and they will point you toward the staff first. Missy and Jason both get named again and again for being genuinely helpful, and one first-timer walked out calling it her new smoke shop after a single visit.

The selection covers a lot of ground. You will find vapes, disposable vapes, and plenty of e-liquid and vape juice, along with vaporizers for those who want them. On the glass side, there are pipes and water pipes, plus rolling papers, grinders, and the smaller smoking accessories you tend to forget until you need them. Locals also mention a nice incense selection, and around the holidays the shop is known for putting together some fun stockings.

People who shop here swear by the deals, and more than one has been surprised at how fair the prices are once they are inside. It is the kind of place where the crew jokes around and clearly enjoys the work, which keeps folks coming back four and five times over. The store stays clean too, which regulars appreciate. We will be honest and say the vibe can depend a little on who is working, and we have heard the odd grumble about attitude on a slower shift.

The overwhelming majority of visits leave people happy, and one who went in expecting the worst was met with a friendly "be safe out there" on the way out. If you are looking for a smoke shop in Columbus with a solid selection, good prices, and staff who actually want to help, Cloud Nine is worth a stop.
