I have been going to J's for many years.He has hundreds of cigars. Because I can't smoke at home, sometimes, I smoke behind his shop. He keeps a box of my favorite cigars in his humidor, for me. I enjoy talking to him and his regular customers. He is very strict when he thinks someone is trying to buy drug paraphernalia .Don't ask for a glass pipe,ask for a Hookah, or he will tell you to leave. read more

When I first went to this smoke shop the owner was the nicest and very knowledgeable about the cigars he sale. I was greeted with a pleasant attitude and was very helpful. I told him the kinds of cigars I want and he provided a nice selection for to choose from. I been to several different smoke shops and the service he provided out done them all. Not only that his cigars are always fresh. The BEST smoke shop ever hands down. Oh I forgot to mention he help me setup my humidors as well. Now that's service for you. read more

I guess "water pipe" was this guy's trigger word because in the middle of a transaction when I was about to pay I mentioned the words water pipe and dude told me "we don't serve drug paraphernalia I'd like you get out of the store now" in front of another customer...I was mortified to say the least as a simple "no we don't sell that here" would have been enough, especially since I didn't ask for or even hint at any drug paraphernalia or reference my entire time inside of his store and our conversation was nothing but polite beforehand. Suffice it to say I took a chance with its low rating and was incredibly disappointed if I could give zero stars I would but if you absolutely need to stop here for the love of god don't mention anything including things that you see for sale if you don't want to be "ejected from the premises" read more

I live in NE Philly not that far from this shop, yesterday I decided to check them out for the first time to see their merchandise selection. As I was entering the shop I saw the basic standard "we don't sell Drug paraphernalia" sign that I have seen in other smoke shops that I have visited across the country. As I walked in I was greeted by an Asian man whom I assume was the owner, I was interested in seeing their selection of glass pipes (a staple product of any smoke shop) so I asked the gentleman "may I see your selection of glass pipes please" he then asked me "is this your first time here?" I said yes, he then said we don't sell those here then began to read the same sign that was on the door to me and gave me a 15 sec lecture. He then told me I have to leave the store now! For a few moments I was confused, did I just step into the Twilight Zone! Now I'm no fool I know you can't go into a smoke shop and ask do you got any crack pipes or some other foolishness like that a "no sir we don't carry those items here, may I interest you in something else" would have been more than sufficient, no harm no foul. I would have gladly purchased something else from the store since I was already there. Anyone that goes to a smoke shop typically is there to buy smoking accessories not a pack of cigarettes or something you can get at a gas station. I've never experienced such high level unprofessionalism I don't even understand how this place stays in business. So after that whole embarrassing nonsense was over I went to my usual smoke shop Smokers Zone on Rising Sun Ave next to the WAWA. I told the staff what happened and they were dumfounded and were in shock they never heard of such an extreme ridiculous policy. So in conclusion, don't waste your time going to this shop. read more
