Northwest Heads

If you have not found Northwest Heads yet, that is kind of the point. Locals describe it as the head shop you might drive past without noticing, but the ones who make the trip keep coming back. Word around Spokane Valley is that this is one of the better smoke shops in the area, and the number of people happy to send friends this way for their glass needs backs that up. The glass selection is where this place really shines.

They carry work from a long list of makers, including Swan Glass, Filla John, Beelze Bubblers, McDoogle Glass, Joe Montana, Teigeiro Glass, Domer Glass, Poison Glass, Ambrose Glass, and Aspen Slaughter. Whether you are after a simple pipe or a nicer water piece, the crew here knows the inventory and will steer you toward the right thing for your budget. One couple came in looking for a new piece, got walked straight to the perfect one, and found the staff had tucked extra filters, cleaners, and magnets into their bag on the way out. That kind of above-and-beyond is exactly what regulars talk about.

Beyond glass, they stock vapes, e-liquid and vape juice, plus the cleaning supplies and smoking accessories to go with it. Ask anyone who shops here and the first thing they mention is the staff: friendly, patient, quick to give an honest recommendation, and never pushy. The manager and team are known for being easy to work with, and more than one person has had a special item ordered in when it was not something they normally carry. People appreciate the fair pricing too, often better than the bigger chain stores.

To be straight about it, locals are a little split on pricing for certain small items, so it is worth a quick comparison on the cheaper stuff. The overall word is clear: clean store, great people, solid selection, and a shop worth the search. A real local favorite in Spokane Valley.
