We browsed the shisha selection while the staff catered to the eighteen year olds buying one-hitters and a cracked out dude in rainbow sneakers who needed a new crackpipe or something. A dude told us not to grab anything ourselves; he'd be over to help us. Fine. I asked him for the flavors we wanted, and he explained that the boxes we were referring to were "back stock" and we could only buy them if we purchased the case, since no one buys more than the small boxes at a time. Uh-huh. I tried to figure out what that cost would be and he explained that, since we had "helped ourselves to choosing flavors and [he] got distracted, [he] wasn't able to explain how it worked." We said our brains were confused and left.

They are friendly and willing to answer any questions you have and will work with you on a price if you think it's too much.

Walking in, I waited in a short line to check in; they scan your ID and buzz you in. The place was cleanand organized. I was greeted by a person giving out free cookies (which were delicious). I was helped out immediately by a sales associate and she showed me the kiosk to look for products to order. The whole process was quick and easy. The place was bustling since it's right on the busy Newbury St. Also a big plus is, this place is owned by BIPOC (black, indigenous, and other people there of color).
