My friend asked for them to get Afzal brand tobacco a few months back and on this trip we saw Afzal brand. I mentioned Afzal Mango is very good and he said they could order that for me. I don't live in the area, but they mentioned they have a couple shops in other neighborhoods near me. I appreciated the customer service and how willing they were to accommodate my flavor/brand choice. The BEST part was that the owner offered us to smoke with him in the shop. They don't offer to the public, but the man was very nice and packed a hookah for us - watermelon mint. It was quite good and I'll definitely get that flavor next time. Thanks Majid! 5/5 from me! Great job standing out from the competitors, my friend who lives in the area will be loyal to this store.

I've been coming for over 4 years now - hard to believe I haven't reviewed this place so this is…read morelong overdue. The level of service is amazing. I still remember my first visit - I was really determined to quit smoking but unhappy with the mod I bought online. The staff checked my mod which we deemed was defective. I found another one here, affordable, & juices I loved. Needless to say, I've not once picked up the stinky sticks since. I moved away for a few years & upon coming back to Chicago, I'm happy to be back. Same great service, selection, & prices. Recently, I stopped in on Sunday, desperate. The tank on my mod was leaking all over the place & I knew a replacement was due. Joseph recommended me the perfect tank, coils to go with, & of course, I had to get another bottle of some juice. (Also recommended but a new favorite!) if you're thinking about dropping cigarettes or already enjoy vaping, pay this place a visit. While it may look small, the selection's great, prices are affordable, & service is stellar.

I found Vape312 while driving and searching Apple Maps for a simple search of the term "vape." I'm…read morenew to Chicago so needed a new place to rely on I couldn't have been happier with my quick decision to visit this shop. The man working today (I wish I would've grabbed his name) was one of the most friendly, helpful and knowledgeable store associates I've ever interacted with. Coming from a history of marketing, sales and retail management, I appreciated this to no end. Vape312 operates a clean, comforting and "current" store design & has a wide variety of products and solutions for everyone, and I back the opinion that even those who are beginners could walk in and confidently walk out with a solution specifically tailored to them (thanks to the awesome staff). I was even told a little about how hard working and passionate the owners are, and I absolutely do not doubt that as fact. It is evident in the brand they are creating. If you are looking for a vape shop in Chicago, the search can be overwhelming. But please take my word for it that this place is the place to be!

When the cashier told me the price of a product, I said that it was too expensive for me, then said…read more"have a good day, sorry for wasting your time!" He replied "the price is right there, you could've read it," then just stared at me as I walked out. The price labels were tiny and I couldn't read them. The cashier was also on a call on speakerphone while I was in there - said it was his friend. That's totally cool, but he was asking them (presumably his manager) if the store had the product I wanted and then asked me to find it myself and point it out. I had asked about weed edibles, which they have a whole shelf of. He didn't seem to believe they had any until the guy on the phone said so, but they have 20+ products. Maybe I just caught him on an off-day. Maybe he's a new employee. Either way, I left feeling disrespected and don't plan on returning.

The first time I saw the sign I almost fell off my bike with excitement…read more "Cool stuff?!" I shouted, out loud, "That's exactly the kind of shit I'm into!" I mean, you have to admit, cool stuff is pretty f'ing sweet. It's cooler than sweet stuff, right? Except when they're the same thing. But you get the idea. I am totally into cool stuff. So I go in, all like, "What's up babe? Hit me up with some dope THINGS. Bring on the cool STUFF," and the small, pleasant Arabic woman behind the counter stared at me nonplussed. I was all, "SERIOUSLY, FOXY MAMA, LAY THAT COOL STUFF ON ME," and she sort of shied away from me, probably because I'm so sexy. It can be intimidating, my sexiness. I decided to check out the store for myself, you know, like Indiana fucking Jones in some temple in Persia or India or some other place where people talk retarded, only without a bullwhip because i don't go in for the kinky stuff. Just cool stuff. Turns out it's just like, a store. With kind of like, food and beverages and household supplies and cigarettes. Maybe some newspapers. Bit of the old Liquid Plumr and the like. I was poking around like, "Hey. Hey you. Yeah, you, the only dimepiece in this place, what time do you get off work?" when I realized I had completely missed a cache of SERIOUSLY COOL STUFF by the front window. Homegirl behind the counter was all dialing the phone with this weird look on her face (probably calling up some of her friends to be all, "This man is too good looking for one woman. Come help," or whatever) but I breezed right past her and examined, at length, the small array of weird pot smoking devices, things with blinky lights and knockoff name brand electronics in the glass display case by the front window that I can only describe as ... well, cool. It's pretty cool stuff. My curiosity satiated, I purchased two packs of those Djarum Black vanilla cigarette/cigar things I like, slipped the babe my beeper number and headed right across the street to The Gingerman to kill a couple pints before my totes fave band, Papa Roach, rocked the Metro, which is also right across the street. And when I need some dope THINGS, and way sweet STUFF (and cigarettes), I now know exactly where to go.
