UR Smoke Shop

NOTE: This account is dedicated to helping Kratom buyers navigate the obtuse world of smoke shops…read morein Northern California. Selection: 8.5/10. Awesome selection of powdered and capsuled dry leaf Kratom, extracts and 7-oh. While they don't display it anymore, you can find whatever you need by asking. Hours: 10/10. 24 hours is hard to beat! I've been at their drive thru overnight before and had an attendant not show up (not sure what happened) but that was only once or twice. Pricing: 9/10. As far as retail kratom prices go, these guys are super competitive, especially if you are a repeat customer. All in all, UR Smoke Shop is a great option for Kratom buyers in the Modesto area. I've received deals from them that blow away any other smoke shop in the 209. Good people.

Keep up the great work guys!

There is an employee here--an older woman with kinky/curly hair and it's currently purple--and she's the downright worst. Always extremely rude and nasty to me, but not to to delivery people or other customers, as I have witnessed countless times before. She somehow can remember to be very rude to me every single time I stop in, yet makes me repeat my order like we haven't been encountering each other for years now. Such a bad look for this place.

They sell INFERIOR products. NO REFUNDS…read more Service is cool, the dudes there are really kind and some are helpful. There's one that just kinda, Is there. They do have a ton of different types of things. Even options that are wild! Their value is pretty decent. The reason for the low stars is because every vape pen battery ive bought lasted about a week. Then never worked again. Some wouldn't work the very first time. No return policy, no store credit. I bought 2 separate mini dragon eggs, the first one was absolutely perfect. The 2nd stopped working within a month. So then I bought another product from the Lookah brand and, yet again, it stopped working almost instantly. Before this happened I spent tons of cash there but I am NEVERRR going back there and hopefully none of my friends will when I let them know. Just buy whatever isn't battery operated and you're good! Just make sure you ABSOLUTELY want it because there is NO REFUNDS.

DO NOT COME TO THIS STORE!…read more My son who is visually impaired went into this smoke shop with his caretaker! He asked the guy at the counter for help picking out a bong/bubbler for herb/flower purposes and the guy lost in translation when he heard bong that he wanted a "bubble crack pipe!!! I went back in and explained to him that my son is visually impaired and needed a bong for herb burning activities. He said he asked the owner and he said NO RETURNS! I said we don't want a refund he wants a bong he can use, just exchange it for something of the same value. He said I can't return it. He was rude and told my son next time know what he wants before he comes in the shop. WE WILL NOT BE BACK!!! In response to the owner, that is not a bong/bubbler. That is meant to smoke crystal meth! And it WAS NEVER USED!!! WE SIMPLY ASKED FOR AN EXCHANGE AND YOU COULDNT DO THAT. MY SON IS BLIND! SAME ON YOU!!!

Worst head shop ever. If I could give zero stars I would have.. Worst customer service! I have been a customer here for the last year and a half and I can not believe how I was treated!!! I bought a dabber from here and when i got home, only an hour later, I was heating it up and it just shattered! I called the shop and this guy Steven was sooo rude on the phone! He said "I probably dropped it on my way outta the shop and I'm just trying to get a free piece now"! Are u kidding me?? He kept saying "not my piece not my problem". I asked for a manager and he refused and said his manager would give me the same answer. I told him I didn't want my money back but this piece was obviously faulty so just give me another one or at least lets work out a deal, he told me to "fuck off"!!?? Look I get it, it's a glass shop, glass breaks, but not when it hasn't even been used yet! And aside from that, you do NOT talk to customers like that!!!! Finally I decided to go into the shop the next morning.. Same guy, Steven, was working.. I told him he could go fuck himself and I wanted to see his manager and he called me a broke bitch and said he was refusing me service. I told him I wasn't leaving until I saw his manager because I wanted to complain about how he treated me and he called the cops on me!!!! Lol this is a joke of a shop. Whoever the manger is, your employees are driving your business into the ground! Good luck read more

This shop sucks! Always hired drug addicts! The short girl with dark hair that works there is always dances around doing some weird ritual, and acts rude like you interrupted her when you walk in, other customers complain about her too, or locks her self up in the bathroom like the other employees. A lot of time the shop never opens up on time, people can't even show up on time to open up at 11am. The place always dirty and dusty and never organized! Merchandise is all over the place, instead of being categorized in one spot like a normal store, but what else do you expect when you hire tweekers? At one point one of them was sleeping in the shop. Like eww! One dude that worked there used to bring his dirt bike in and leave it in the middle of the walk way when you walk in the store was a major safety hazard! The place is always a mess, no-one even takes the trash out barely, it's always over stuffed, you can see cockroaches crawling around the counter sometimes. It's so gross! Always carries cheap knock offs so don't go here if you're looking for a high end piece! Make sure to inspect your merch before you leave a lot times it's used or cracked! read more

I came in to buy my husband a pipe and I know nothing about them, but my friend told me there's a few shops on mchenry so I just stopped at this one.. I don't know the guy's name, long hair, didn't even get up to help me, and he was on his phone almost the whole time.. So I was kinda on my own. When I asked him which ones were the best he said you get what you pay for lol I think he was just trying to convince me to spend a lot of money! Another girl was working too and when she was done with her customer she helped me. The other guy was useless. Don't waste your time at this place, the employees don't seem too knowledgable on their products. read more

So I went in to buy a grinder a year ago, it broke within 1 use, I called to complain that the sales person helping told me their was nothing she could do about it, basically told me I was SOL. Alana the Manager called me and said she wanted to make it right even thou it was so long ago so to come in and she would take care of me, n that she did!, gave me a great deal on a piece. It was highly appreciated that she even called me back they gained a customer they had once lost THANKS TO HER!! So heads up Jay if she leaves or is fired I'm not coming back haha read more

I bought vape pins for myself and my wife here. And I must say that overall the experience was great. What I am most pleased by was the help I received when there was a slight hick-up with my purchases. The customer services representatives that work there were very helpful and honest in their dealings. If the question is will I continue to shop here for my vaping needs? Then the answer is 100% YES!! Great job you guys...and as I said in the store, I'll be hitting you with a great review!!! Earned and deserved 5 STARS read more

After searching around town at multiple smoke shops in town for the perfect titanium nail, I arrived at Smoking Jays . Ashlee was so nice and convinced me to buy an enail and gave me a quartz nail. My concentrate has never tasted better and my lungs don't feel sucker punched . I liked that she took her time explaining the enail to me and how to pick the perfect temp. It's so small and compact I can take it to sesh with my friends. Thank you Smoking Jays I will be back read more

I wanted a Vape Pen, and she showed me how it worked, how to do it, which oils I should get, and alllllll the information you could ever ask for about a vape pen. She was so helpful, and she ended up giving me a good deal on the oils because it was my birthday I'll definitely be back to this shop for all my oils and parts to my vape pen! read more

I had bought a new vape pen which was defective and would not work right, it had become dangerous to use becoming really hot, enough to burn you. I came back with everything and Allana was very nice and helpful set me up with a new vape that was the same price and gave me an extra battery coils and liquid! The liquid i had bought was wasted on the defective vape! Great service great vapes! read more
