Xhale Vapor N Smoke

Xhale Vapor N Smoke has been part of the Kirkland scene since 2009, and locals will tell you it's one of the first vape stores to open in the whole country. That kind of history shows in how they run the place. Ask anyone who shops here and you'll hear the same thing: friendly faces, a deep selection, and an owner who treats people right. People even drive over from Seattle for the selection and the service, with one regular saying it's the only spot they've found that keeps cherry slush in stock.

The shelves stay stocked with vapes, disposables, vape juice and e-liquid, vaporizers, grinders, cigarettes, and the smaller smoking accessories you tend to run out of. On the brand side you'll find GeekVape, Lost Mary, and Clipper. The word around Kirkland is that they never leave you staring at empty boxes, so whether you're picky about your flavor or you like to try something new, there's usually something waiting for you. Regulars keep coming back for the deals too, from the discount when you grab more than one to the fair pricing on mods.

The staff get named by first name around here for good reason. Maddy (also spelled Madi by folks who love her) gets singled out constantly, and one person went so far as to say she deserves a raise. Carissa is another name people mention, the kind who takes her time walking you through options until everything makes sense. The owner has a reputation for kindness, small courtesies, and helping out when someone's a couple dollars short.

With a strong reputation built over hundreds of happy visits, this is a well-liked vape shop in Kirkland. One tip we've picked up: check that you're getting the exact brand and product you asked for before you pay, a small habit that keeps everyone happy. They're open late, which regulars call a real lifesaver.
