Walking into this store, which is very laid back, yet perfectly designed, I transformed. Ultimately, I believe I was brought back to my Dead Head years today. It's A Dream Smoke Shop is located between Aquarius/Vulcan's Forge, and BP Gas Station. I had seen the clothing rack a few days ago from the window, and made a special trip out there. I had my 19 year old son with me. Let me explain this rationally and so that it will be understood. Hookahs of all caliber are displayed, along with hand blown glass smoking devices, throughout the store, against beautiful lighting. Tapestries of bright colors and amassments are hung from the ceiling. To the back of the wall, against a black background, there are belts, jewelry, trinkets, trays. The other side of the store are the hookahs and hand blown glass smoking devices. Some are over $100.00. Under the case are hand blown perfectly sculpted pipes and devices. Every single color imaginable, and shape, and size. When I visited the store, the manager was there with his girlfriend. He knew precisely what each and every device was used for, how to use it, exactly the price of it and was willing to make us very good deals with whatever we bought. I don't smoke tobacco, but for some reason, I am drawn to shops like this. The clothing was one rack, with gorgeous t-shirts and skirts, hand sewn in a hippy commune in California. The shirt I bought was only 24.95. It is patchwork in bright, solid multicolors, long on one side, short on the other, with black transparencies on some of the squares. I actually will go back, and buy the other shirt. It is in orange, fall colors with a tree embroidered up on side. To the back of the store are jewelry, most of it hand made. I bought 2 lucite bracelets for 5.00. These are made at the commune, as well. It is a little known fact, that another smoke shop down the street, takes smoking devices and throws them on the floor, causing them to bounce, but not break. We were hoping for this. I looked at the manager when he grabbed a thick glass smoking device, and threw it on the floor and it bounced. We were looking forward to seeing this display. The shop also sells accessories for smoking, and other sundries. While in this store, I felt the urge to listen to "Sugar Magnolia", wearing a cotton skirt, and no sandals, and twirl. read more

Malik and Shazed were great help. They helped me select the best geek bar. Would highly recommend!

Always a great selection! Excellent customer service! Affordable! They are open late read more

Great glass but a little overpriced! I have been shopping @ this location for years and have gotten great pieces!

Matthew was wonderfully patient with my indecisiveness and helped be find the perfect piece :)

It was my first time here and I, being the person I am, have lots of questions, always. I was helped by, Josh, and he was excellent. Really knowledgable and friendly. These guys are super easy to work with and a lot of fun too! I love that there's also a yelp discount! read more

my favorite smoke shop by a mile. the point system is the best and whenever i have an issue and come back they always have my back

got a battery that didn't work an wasn't made aware that they don't do exchanges or returns for them an wasn't given the chance to try it out before i purchased it. overall just not the best service read more

Unimpressed. There's a lot of places to buy tobacco in Kansas City. Not to mention glass wears. Hookahs or other such items. Sure they have that stuff. In this small space they have a lot of things. But not that huge of a verity of any one thing. And there bricking is a bit higher then thunder head smoke shop or main st tobacco. So in short. Small selection for a big price read more

Everything you want in a shopping experience. Clean well lit store, great selection, crazy good hours, and friendly knowledgeable staff. Love this place, highly recommend. read more

The most knowledgeable plant matter and accessories in Kansas City work at this establishment. They are professional plant matter enthusiastsas well they are all very intelligent and great at problem-solving! They are always willing to work with you on price points and give you advice on how to either manipulate certain point matter or start growing a certain flowering plants. In addition, the selection of tobacco products and hookahs/etc. is amazing and abundant! Not just your garden-variety 'head shop'; this is a professional plant matter accessory store! The best in the metropolitan area of Kansas City! read more

Back again! Found an awesome hookah-- but had to switch some things around since it apparently was a one person hookah. I don't know much about hookahs-- and that's why I come here because they really take time to teach you and show you cool stuff. On this trip however the sale's clerk made me feel pretty stupid by how his attitude was towards me. Which was pretty disappointing since I had never had a bad experience here... Not everyone knows as much as you do-- that's why you educate them and don't act/respond in a way to the customer to make them feel stupid or like their hookah knowledge is so inferior it annoys you... Not good business practice! None the less I got an amazing hookah and they cut me a great deal. I'm sure I'll go back because they have great sales-- but I'm hoping the attitude from the one clerk has improved. read more

Check your coils before you walk out that door. These kids couldn't be inconvenienced to actually help me, or say more than 5 words. I asked for a u2 coil and made the mistake of trusting them. I specifically called to make sure they had that coil, because I can't vape at high watts. They sold me a u8. I vape at 40 watts, and I'm stuck with a coil that's minimum is 70 and minimum recommeneed is 90! Nearly twice what I needed! I'll pay more elsewhere to be treated like a person and get what I paid for. read more

Great help on finding what I wanted. I liked the pieces they had and almost bought 2 not being able to decide

Great selection, but the workers are not helpful and would not accept a coupon from yelp. They were knowledgeable but not helpful.

This overpriced store is for suckers. I bought a $30 vape from them that didn't work. I brought it back the next day with a receipt and they wouldn't take it back or exchange it. The clerk was unbelievably rude about it too, saying 'we hear a lot of stories about a lot of things here. No refunds or exchanges.' My story was simply, 'I bought it from you yesterday and it didn't work'. Save your money and don't look like a fool shopping at 'Its a Dream' store. Just keep driving a few blocks north to Cooper's Smoke Shop on the other side of the street. Cooper's has been there for decades and know how to treat customers, and they have a lot more vape pen choices and way better prices. read more

Friendly smoke shop with decent prices. Employees let you have some haggle room and help get you what you need quickly.

I love all the really artsy pieces! They have a lot of stuff to choose from. And the guys are really nice and knowledgeable.

Epic place to buy hookah accessories and other smoking needs. Lots of choices of pipes. Helpful staff.

The employees at this shop are very knowledgeable and always friendly. They carry a wide variety of products. They are also in the 5 Star program/app so you collect points as you buy. This is my go to shop for Juul pods. Of course, many products are at a higher price point being brick and mortar vs shopping online-but they are local and have great customer service. read more

Good product wanna spin and win!! Enjoyed atmoaphere. Good stuff enjoyfeel free to stop in. Rick is a dope mural

I bought s tugboat rda vape. They let me leave the store without a box with warrantee information or any tools needed to actually get the mod to where it would work. Upon returning to ask what kind of product over $100 comes without any accessories. They said they'd exchange it for $100 one(less money than mine was worth). Mind you they told my friend she wasn't made to vape! So I went across the street the exotic guys and they were very helpful. She got her mod fixed and set me up! Have always spent my business at it's a dream but no longer will I support that kind of customer service. read more

I have been to Its a dream twice now and over all it is a good smoke shop. One of the sales person behind the counter wasn't really responsive but over all not bad. Customer service was ok too. I really like the floors and variety was huge, they have a little bit of everything. I purchased my rig on sale, regular price was $200 and I got it for only $90. Overall I would give four stars to this store. read more

They're an OK Vape shop as far as brick and mortar shops go. Overpriced juice and hardware. Nothing to rave about, but not bad.

I had been coming here for years but to be honest the service is shit the pieces are extremely over priced. I mention that their competition down the street has similar product for half the price and got kicked out of the store. Forget its a dream because its a nightmare just go to coppers couple blocks away read more

Beware of this place if you buy expensive items. They are not a liscened seller. They sell broken products. I know I bought a 300 dollar item, twice from this store and both broken. Shop at your own risk. Only buy cheap items..thier big ticket items break. They are not to be trusted. read more

I have to say as a beginner vapor I really was impressed with the staff in this store. They were very knowledgeable, asked me questions and helped me pick out my first vape. They even have me a higher end bottle of oil, based on what I told them I liked. I didn't feel awkward or dumb at all. The store is immaculate clean, lots of vaping products to choose from. Parking was easy. I will return for additional oil and additional accessories. read more
