Dudes Smoke & Vape

The word around Kent is that Dudes Smoke & Vape is where you go when you want the best prices in town, and people don't say that lightly. More than one regular has told us they'll drive in from other parts of the area just to shop here, with one person from Shoreline saying flat out it's worth the trip. Ask anyone who shops here about the deals and you'll get the same story: they treat everybody like they're getting a special price, and folks walk out feeling like they saved real money. The selection is what keeps people talking.

Locals will tell you this shop stocks the hard-to-find stuff other places skip, from glass pipes and water pipes to torches, brass and stainless screens, and just about every tank coil ever made. On the vape side, there's a deep run of disposables and a wide range of e-liquid and vape juice, with regulars mentioning brands like Geek Bar and Foger. If you need to replace a coil or track down an odd accessory, this is the kind of place where the answer is usually yes. Prabh gets named again and again for being genuinely personable, and folks appreciate the care that goes into the little things, like wrapping up a new glass piece so it makes it home safe.

The team overall has a reputation for being kind, patient, and quick with a good deal, especially if you're new and not sure what you're looking for. We'll be straight with you: a couple of people have run into the shop closed during posted hours, and one person felt pushed toward buying more than they wanted at once. Those are the exceptions, though. With well over four and a half stars from a strong batch of local support, Dudes Smoke & Vape has earned its place as a favorite vape shop in Kent.

You'll find it right next to Popeye's Chicken, across from Fred Meyer.
