    I love this shop and I've been going to this shop for at least 10 years. I'm a little bit older so…read moreI'm not in the younger generation of like 20 or 21 years old. Customer service and personal interaction between staff and customer is definitely something that impacts patronizing the business. I really liked the previous staff l but the current staff is very friendly and very nice. I find the management to be a little bit rough and a little bit unapproachable and act entitled. I'm not sure why they can't keep staff, but I think that maybe the management is part of the reason. I've purchased a lot of different product from glass pipes, sex toys,detox products, insence and kratom over the years (just a quick plug-in that The Point is my place and I've been going there for like 15 years and I get my tattoos at Providence Tatoos.) I've been a customer since 2018 and I'm not sure what the deal is, but I hope that the current staff stays on and is consistent because the previous staff and the previous manager were awesome. I'm not sure what happened but I became very friendly with them and they were very nice and super knowledgeable and helpful. I came in so much that we became friendly, talking about our plans we had and what we've been up to and things that you would just chit chat with people that you become friendly with. The current staff is awesome, I just wish that they would stay and there wouldn't be so much turnover. It says something when people don't stay about how the shop is run and management of the shop and the treatment of employees.

    Best selection, best prices, friendly service...in my opinion the best smoke shop around…read moreProvidence. i drive by at least 5 other shops to go here.

    Cool staff, reasonable prices! Definitely place to check out if your in the area. I don't go…read moreanywhere else for supplies for my delivery service, these guys are my "go to place" to get pipes/bongs to smoke the flowers I grow! Owner Chris is super chill guy, isn't all in your face to pressure you to buy anything, and I appreciate that! IG @Akita_Boston_ElevatedDeliveries

    I was in need of some kratom (which I usually buy online), and I couldn't say no to Grateful Head…read morewhen they popped up on google! I figured the store would be chill and the quality would be top-notch, and they delivered! It's a cute shop channeling the vibe of an old (read: expert) head's tent at a festival: warm, welcoming, and with lots of cool little trinkets, flowers, and potions. I found what I was looking for and the owner was VERY helpful. The type of helpful that makes you want to support a business like this forever because it's good for the community. You can tell they care about their customers and aren't just there to make money, a rare thing. The whole experience made my day, actually. They specialize more on the smoke (especially gorgeous display of glass pipes and bongs) side, but they have a decent selection of kratom (pills, powder, tincture, etc...) if you need. I'm very happy with the quality of my kratom. And will be back to check out the mary jane section sometime soon! They're in the back corner of the ATT plaza at the top of the hill next to Walmart on route 9. A hidden (but centrally-located) gem. Perfect for getting medicated for your next trip to Walmart (LOL)!

    We knew we were going to be in the area around the time of WaterFire so we made sure to find a…read moreplace to stay and spend the night here. We had never been to anything like this or even really heard that much about it so we were interested to see what it was. WaterFire started about 30 years ago as an art installation that was meant to bring more people to the area and it definitely works. They light the braziers along the rivers, pipe beautiful music through the air and have volunteers on boats going from spot to spot, tending the flames and refilling the wood. There are tons of people there. Just walking and enjoying being outside and being together. The vibe is so relaxed and so peaceful but yet busy and exciting at the same time. It's kind of hard to describe unless you see it for yourself. We headed out around dusk when there was still light in the sky and it was a little chilly but I soon forgot about that. Words can't really express how you're just sort of drawn into the piece and beauty of this whole thing. I feel like this review can't even do it justice. We walked around for over an hour but our dog did start to get cold even though we had her in her jacket, so we headed back to where we were staying for a little while. Once it was dark and we were all warmed up, we headed out again because it was just so enjoyable to be there that we really wanted to come back. The second time we wandered through the street fair area and looked at some of the tables and street vendors. I got a really cool ring that was made out of a an old ornate spoon. There were also food vendors but everything was pretty busy so we ended up getting food on the way back to our hotel. There were families and groups of friends and couples, all just soaking in the magic and ambiance and ultimately we drifted back towards the water again because that is where the real magic is. We sat for a long time watching people float by in gondolas and watching the volunteers slowly push the boats through the canals, adding wood to the flames causing them to rise up. Everyone was friendly and in a good mood and strangers were chatting with each other. There was a real sense of community and peace. This was honestly one of the most romantic evenings I've had with my husband in a long time as well. We nuzzled noses and shared a few kisses to the music and the flame. If you are anywhere near Providence during WaterFire, don't even think about it just go. It's totally free! You don't need tickets or even to plan really. You can just enjoy the fire light and the music and being together in a beautiful place. It's absolutely unforgettable.

One of the Chinese dragon boats from the Pawtucket Dragon Races made an appearance as well. The event was very well attended, with many areas of the Riverwalk at capacity during peak times. Foot traffic jams made it difficult to navigate freely around the basin area. Lots of vendors and food trucks located around the RISD campus gave the event an even more festive flair. A great way to bring downtown Providence alive !
