Smokie Town Smoke Shop

Smokie Town Smoke Shop is a handy spot in Kent for anyone who needs vapes, disposables, or rolling papers, and the fact that they stay open late makes them a favorite for folks heading home from work or out around the bars. Ask anyone who shops here and they'll tell you the selection runs deep. Word around Kent is they carry just about every vape you could want, including the full monster collection, so you're rarely walking out empty-handed. The story locals love most says a lot about the place.

One shopper couldn't find the right battery anywhere in the Kent or Ravenna area, and rather than shrug it off, the owner phoned a friend up in Cleveland, tracked one down, and had it in Kent by 9 the next morning. That kind of effort is why regulars keep coming back. The owner and, we hear, his son run the counter with real care, and people describe them as some of the nicest folks you'll meet. There's also a rewards system worth signing up for if you're a regular.

Now, we'll be honest: locals are a little split on the service here. When the staff are on, people rave about the help, and one shopper was genuinely impressed by how patiently the questions got answered. Other times we've heard the odd grumble about a "back in 15" sign or a slow greeting. It happens.

The shop isn't always the cheapest in the area either, but plenty of people say the prices are fair and the convenience is worth it. If you're after a smoke shop in Kent that's open when you need it and stocked with the vapes and papers you're looking for, Smokie Town is an easy stop to keep in your rotation.
