I have purchased a few items from this store over 3 visits. On each visit, I have found the store…read moreto be clean, well organized, well lit, and well stocked. It's small but it has a very welcoming "hippie" vibe that I love. They have a great variety of pipes, ranging from small little metal one hitters to huge glass water pipes (remember to use correct terms, we are in Michiana but not quite in Michigan). I no longer use nicotine, but they have a large variety of disposable vapes in all flavors, as well as cigarettes and pipe tobacco. As far as prices go, I am new to the area and haven't been able to get to the other smoke shops yet, but this place is a bit pricey compared to my home state. However, I learned they may be willing to haggle over price because I was shocked to see that a 2 part plastic grinder had a $9 tag, but the lady behind the counter (who I've seen each time and is always very helpful) quickly added "but I can do $5 for it." when she saw I was having to think twice (I'm on a tight budget). I could get a grinder like that for $3 at several booths at the flea market in my old state, but I'm tired of using my fingers and just wanted to get a grinder and go home. I bought the grinder and I'm glad I did. Smoking from my one hitter (also purchased here) is a lot easier now. Overall, I like this smoke shop and there is a chance that I will back next payday for a new pipe and maybe a slightly better grinder.

***UPDATE*** I've been back to the shop a few times and it…read moreseems the issue with kids being in the shop has been addressed. That said, I've gotten a few new nice pieces from Glass Roots and the quality of gear they sell is still top notch and competitively priced. The UV products they sell are particularly cool and takes me back to my younger days. I'm downgrading my rating for Glass Roots because every time I go the shop is filled with kids under 18. The first time it happened one of the employees had his infant behind the counter just hanging out, I bet CPS would have loved hearing about that. After that incident I contacted the manager/owner and he assured me it was an isolated incident and it wouldn't happened again. So I go back to the shop the day after Christmas to use a gift certificate and what's the first thing I see upon entering the shop? About a half dozen obviously underage kids starring at all the pipes! Seriously WTF?!?! I understand that kids are curious and with all the legalization it's not a huge deal but rules are rules are rules and crap like that doesn't help! It's unfortunate the owner doesn't feel the need to follow laws, it'd be a real shame if someone notifies the proper authorities...

My husband was able to find LiveWire Mountain Dew that he hadn't seen anywhere in a long while so he decided to grab a bottle. The backwoods fabric signs they have hanging behind the employee area where the cash register is were unique and I almost asked if they are decor for the store or for sale. Lots of tobacco products and things you might need to go with it (tray, papers if you roll your own cigarettes, and lighters). Didn't see a bathroom but I didn't need to go when I was there so I didn't think about it in the moment. Employee was friendly and quick to ask if we wanted to look at anything in the glass cases. They also sell incenses and incense holders. The outside awning being worn down can be deceiving but this place is decent for what it is.

Due to my severe back pain caused by 5 bulging discs, a blood bone tumor in my T12 disc, and…read morefibromyalgia, I use kratom as a natural pain reliever. They use a wide array of both kratom powder and 7OH tablets. I understand that there is a lot of negative talks about 7OH tablets but I have done extensive research for my own well being and unlike real hard drugs, there hasn't been a death attributed to 7OH solely. It has changed my way of life. I can function better and I have a way better outlook because of it and because A2Z has such incredibly low prices for their kratom, this is where I go for my needs and this place only. On top of all of the low prices for kratom, they have a very good and large selection of vapes at competitive prices and wide selection of flavors. And lastly, they have such outstanding customer service. Dalton, the manager especially goes out of his way with his knowledge of kratom and other products to sell you exactly what you're looking for.

Prices for cannabis are ridiculous in Chicago, even with a med card, so I make the Kessel Run to find my Zen regularly. The same Airo vapes (love the flavor and hits off those) that run $60 for half grams in the city are thirty for full grams cartridges here. Selection is excellent across Zen locations. I love the Airo and Drip vapes and Wana and Wyld gummies. If you're bargain hunting, you will find many deals-cheap, bulk flower from any of the strains on hand in the bins or gummies and vapes for less than what you spend on lunch. Watch out for the man outside on Buchanan's Main Street. Just a soon as I loaded up and pulled my illegal U turn, I got lit up and pulled over. Lucky for me I knew enough to wait until I got home to toke, and the guy took mercy on me when he saw my Mom calling my cell (true story) and let me go with a warning.
