The service and pricing at this shop is the best around. Jay is my guy and always has what i'm looking for and more. The selection is extensive and you can truly see that Jay cares for his client base and their needs. Additionally, the store is so clean and always smells so good. This is more than a smoke shop, it's a comfort place, it's a sanctuary for good vibes. The combination of fresh incense in the air and the in and out quality of service is impeccable. HIGHLY RECCOMEND! read more

My husband and I have been shopping at Whole Leaf for at least 8 years. They have the best selection in the entire city. We moved out of portage park a few years ago and still travel out of our way to come here. All our glass pieces are from here. Their customer service is always top notch, fair prices, and they always do little things to make you feel appreciated as a customer. Something as little as giving you a free lighter with your purchase is awesome and so appreciated. When one of our new pieces cracked from heat (not the shops fault at all), they gave us a discount on a new piece which is so appreciated. They also give good suggestions on products after getting to know you better. We purchased glass cleaner there from their recommendation and it works amazingly. Last time they suggested a grinder for us (not even looking for one) and it's hands down the best grinder we've ever owned. Whole leaf will always get our business!! If you're looking for an awesome glass/smoke shop definitely go here. read more

I have purchased a total of 4 different e-cig devices from this place. The first one looked like a cigarette, and its works great, but holds a very small amount of liquid. The next three were all the same variety.... KangerTech EVOD. Turns out, that part of the tool "burns out" and when I brought the old one it, the guy working there said "those break a lot" - so then he gave me a great deal on another one. I said fine. When my wife thought she broke another one, we replaced it again from this shop. So when we brought it home it wasn't working... brand new, just 5 minutes old. So I went to youtube to learn a bit about them. Guess what? While this shop sells them for $35 a piece, you see you can get them online half that... well you get two tools, and 3 back up coils... which do burn out. Other parts that come with it don't come with the tools they sell. So end of the day, you may not know it but you are being charged more than 50% above what it costs... and he knows you burned just the coil, but he sells you a whole new device anyway. Bad ethics, bad business. I will never be back here, and I won't be surprised when they are jailed for selling *things* they shouldn't. read more

Jay is very nice and has a solid selection of vape juices. If you're rolling through Jeff Park Station and you need juice choose whole leaf. You can tell he really cares about his shop and he takes really nice care of it. read more

Really friendly and helpful staff that hooked me up with an e-cig and some liquid that tastes just like a Marlboro. Huge selection and great prices too! FYI - Cash Only. I would give them 5 stars if they accepted credit cards! read more

I walked in off the street to replace a broken product of mine (not related to this shop). The clerk was SUPER friendly and didn't try to hard sell me anything; he just let me look around. This place has a giant selection. Answered all my questions and I walked out with a new product at a great price. The clerk also tossed in this cool little lighter on the house. Great place. Would shop again. read more

I came here back when Stu owned the place some would argue on his ways of handling business. His gorgeous Pitt Seven was always there, he gave me fair prices and some freebies for the most part. New owners I have nothing bad to say, I can openly admit the place looks a lot cleaner and they still sell MEDTAINERS if you're 420 friendly I suggest you pick one up. I bought two and received a free lighter of my choice and another one once again on the house. Definitely checking back in read more

I guarantee you, one you will visit them you will never ever visit any other VAPE SHOP what's a way to treat there customer which makes me speechless very super friendly helpful folks I have ever meet. I bought smoke V8 kit from them and since then I have been 3 times to know little more about my Kit, and every time I went there they have change or fix my Kit and reward me with free coil and on top of it they have filled my device with juice. I have worked all my life in hospitality industry and I think I am failed in front of there hospitality. If you wants to be remembered and treat like king and wants to have a great deal its worth even drive an a hour here. Thanks you guys I really appreciate for your hospitality. Kamran read more

I tend to shop around different vape shops but this one always has delicious vape juices on stock. Their cinnaroo e-liquid was delicious and went back for more but they were out if stock. I ended up buying new flavors recommended by Chris and OMG that Peach Rings was to die for. Definitely recommend this place. Fair prices too. read more

Met J.J. for the first time today, after hearing nothing but good things about this place, he'll help you find anything you're looking for. Felt very welcomed and will definitely be back in the future. read more

Been coming here for years off and on. Prices are kind of jacked but since I live a few blocks away it's convenient. Thought the boss was a cool guy but found out today it was all a charade. Bought a atmos kiln ceramic attachment back in 2015. I kept it clean but didn't follow the rules of keeping the temp to 10-15 and it stopped working, $40 bucks gone. So last week I came in and bought a new one for $35. Just last night when I fired my last hit the thing stopped working. Come to find out in a closer inspection that the donut had cracked, boyyy was I pissed because not only was it new but I kept the thing on 14-15 watts. So I came in today assuming my buddy would replace it no charge since I'm a cool, nice guy but he wasn't in so I had dude working there call him. He told him he would do $25 since it was used already, I told him 20 and he said ok but the fact that he didn't want to replace it gave me a messed up feeling in my stomach cuz all along I thought this dude was cool but come to find out he's just another money hungry person. I hate making reviews like this because it makes it seem like I'm the asshole but right is right. Everyone steer clear of this place. You can find the same products online for almost half the price. Or if you got a ride try out The Smoke Shop guys on Dempster. Oh and also don't buy the kiln atmos for concentrates but rather the rebuildable version unit that comes with the battery which is 30 bucks more but well worth it or online you can buy the kiln ra ceramic atomizer by itself for the same price as the regular one, they have it at aromavapes.com. Wish these assholes would have told me about the RA version before I went and bought a new piece of crap non rebuildable. read more

Whole Leaf Tobacco - Don't buy this crap!!! - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

See all

The staff doesnt know ANYTHING when it comes to vaping. The coils they build are complete crap, they over price shitty clones and say they're top of the line or authentic. Nothing here is authentic besides SOME of the tanks. Besides that. Horrible place! The only thing that's worry it here for vaping is the juices. read more

Called to inquire about products sold. Not helpful at all and extremely rude. Brush up on your customer service skills, for real.

This place is awesome. The prices are good and the people are so friendly. I'm very picky on what e cigarette flavored octet. They strive for satisfying my 'needs' and don't mind helping me. I love going here. read more

I came here to buy my boyfriend a gift for his birthday and I met Jay. He's seriously the coolest dude ever and takes really good care of his customers. He's got good ass deals too. I come here for everything I need because he has such a wide variety of products. Thank you again Jay! read more

Hands down this is the best place to fufill your vaping needs. Such an honest, helpful and informative staff. You can sense that they want you to leave a happy customer and to keep wanting to come back. I love this place and frequent it almost on a weekly basis. Its comforting to know that they are fellow vapor heads themselves. read more

This is the BEST shop in the city. why? It's because the NEW owner is always there and knows everything and anything about smoke and Vape. He knows all his products and only offers you the best advice. He can show you how things work, and if you have issues help fix the problem. They are super friendly and give great deals. The BIGGEST thing is you can trust them. Go Check it out and you won't be disappointed. read more

I love this store! The employees are so very helpful and always friendly. The prices are fair and I highly recommend Whole Leaf for tobacco, vape pens, vape juice or anything else you may need. There is a very wide selection. The owner and employees of the store will go far beyond your expectations. I am always treated with such courtesy. I will always shop at this store! Many thanks to J.J. for the professional way you run your store!!!! read more

I love this place and have been relying on them for all my e-cig needs for about 2 years. They have a good choice of liquids and batteries, are always ready to answer questions and really take their time to help out (like if a tank gets stuck and won't open or a battery stops working...). I can't imagine a nicer and more friendly place to do my e-cig shopping. Thanks, guys! Keep up the great work! :-) read more

This is the best smoke shop I've been in by far in the city of Chicago. They get the latest pens, vapes, oils, great detox supplies that make your urine test negative on any urine test, AND THE PIPES.........mint. I can testify to that. The employees are great. I went in there the 1st to buy papers; I stood 30min in there, but by choice. Had a good time socializing with the workers there. Cool thing about them too, if you become a regular, they really care of you. They gave me a great deal on some items I bought, still was $5 short. Since I been a regular for about 3 months now they said to me pay them the next time i come back. Which is twice a month. How much better can a customer be treated? read more

Ultimate must stop smoke shop in Jefferson Park/ Chicagoland area. Great selection and prices! You can even test out different vape boxes and liquids/juices! The owner does a great job of explaining products and shows you how it's used. Has plenty to choose from to suit any kind of smokers needs! I'll definitely be back to upgrade on a vape box amongst many other fabulous items available! read more

i have been in there on 3 separate occasions and it seems that the employees care more about talking to thier friends and being on thier phones then actually selling stuff. i jave went in for very specific items that they carry, only to wait 20 minutes each time while the employee had conversations about everything Except. ....smoke and vape things. i guess i was on the pay no mind list and that sucks cause i live 2 blocks away. oh well....some people are in business to make money, some just to hang out. read more

They know a little about vaping. Wouldn't call them experts like people found at other shops. This place is expensive. It's ok if other shops are out of stock and you have the money to spend on what you need. Seems they want to sell products (of course any business does or they wouldn't be there) but they don't have much concern about your vaping experience. They are more interested in what vaping things they can sell you. read more
