DC Smoke

DC Smoke has earned a solid reputation as a neighborhood tobacco shop in Spokane, Washington, and the word around town is that it's the kind of place regulars claim as their own. "It's my neighborhood smoke shop, period," is how one local put it, and that loyalty comes up again and again. Locally owned and easy to get in and out of, this is a spot people keep circling back to. The shelves cover a lot of ground.

You'll find vapes and disposable vapes, a good range of e-liquid and vape juice, cigars, cigarettes, rolling papers, and glass pieces including water pipes, plus the smaller smoking accessories that round out a run. One thing worth calling out: the butane selection here is deep. Ask anyone who fuels torches and they'll tell you DC Smoke carries five or six brands at different purities, including the harder to find metal-tip cans that fill Scorch torches without the plastic adapters. That kind of specific stock is what keeps people driving back.

Service is the through-line in most of what we hear. People talk about the man who always seems to be behind the counter, happy and in a good mood, going out of his way to put a smile on a face. One regular mentioned bringing in a coupon after the sale was already rung up, and the crew simply re-rang the whole thing without a fuss. Quality on the products has held up for most folks too.

We'll be straight: opinions aren't unanimous. A few locals have grumbled about a piece that arrived cracked or an exchange that didn't go their way, so it's smart to inspect glass before you leave. Still, for cheap smokes, a serious butane selection, and friendly faces, most Spokane regulars keep this one in their rotation.
