Leftys

Ask anyone who shops here and the first name that comes up is Loretta. She runs the floor at Leftys on Dixie Highway in Fairfield, and locals will tell you she has a way of walking you through the options without any pressure. New to vaping and not sure which brand to pick? She'll talk you through it, make a suggestion or two, and send you out with something that fits. Regulars keep asking for her by name, and more than a few say she's the reason they shop here and nowhere else.

She's not the only one folks rave about. James, Scott, and the rest of the crew get plenty of love too. One longtime customer has been coming for four years and swears Scott knows what he wants before he even asks, and always has an answer on whatever new product just landed. That kind of familiarity is what keeps people driving out of their way to get here. The shelves cover a lot of ground: vapes, e-liquid and vape juice, tobacco pipes, cigars, water pipes, CBD and hemp, and all the smoking accessories you'd expect.

They even keep some nice-smelling candles around. Prices are fair, and the shop genuinely backs up what it sells. We've heard about a dud pen getting swapped on the spot, tested before the customer walked out to be sure the new one worked. That's the sort of thing that turns a first visit into a habit. The vibe is laid-back and welcoming.

You get a greeting when you walk in, honest answers when you ask, and no attitude. One couple decided in the parking lot on their first trip that this was their spot for anything smokeware from then on. With a strong local reputation built on well over four and a half stars across a good number of visits, Leftys has earned its place as a real favorite among Fairfield smoke shops.
