I generally stop by here when I happen to be in the area walking around or when I need something specific and this is the closest spot I can think of picking it up. It's near the corner of 5th and High, there's a little bit of street parking out front but I always walk because I'm close. The staff is crazy friendly. They are always quick to help you find what you're looking for or make suggestions. I have my Ohio medical marijuana card and from time to time I need small items like papers or a lighter. Afterall, they are called The Joint. They also have items like incense, pretty sure they have come cbd products, jewelry, and clothing items. read more

See all

Zoe and the whole staff are the best. No better place to go for any and everything. 100% recommend.

zoe, uncle jesse and staff are truly one of a kind these days. they don't rush you, everything is well explained, so much to choose from and good prices. the staff is my #1 reason for being a loyal, repeat customer! love them read more

Very nice place to visit and smells amazing in there! The prices are very reasonable the service is excellent! The people behind the counter get to you right away so it is really in and out for me. Next time I am going to shop a little bit and check out some incense and other things they have. I've been coming here for over a year and usually just go in pick up my cigarette tobacco, Tubes and go but it's time for a real visit! Highly recommended The Joint on High! read more

Typical smoke shop with lots of glass pipes. I just needed a new wind proof butane lighter and the least expensive one was $20 which in my opinion is very expensive!! read more

While walking around the Short North we were told by the local people to stop in at the "adult tobacco" shop to have a look around. So we did just that. I was amazed by the array of items that are available for purchase here. Your typical smoking apparatuses are available and a wide selection complimentary items are available for purchase. Everything that could be associated with smoking is definitely available for purchase. From socks to lighters you can find it here. The staff were hilarious while we were in here. Entertaining us with their smart wit that kept us on our toes. read more

"Tobacco Shop"...yeah right! With a name like "The Joint", we all know what goes down here. A huge selection of pipes, papers, and other contraptions to be used for smoking...tobacco. Umm, yeah. Compared to the handful of similar places around campus that cater to the ever-growing number of college-going "tobacco" users, The Joint is tops in Columbus. I haven't had the need to shop here in a few years, but when I was in the market for some of the products that are offered I was always surprised and even perplexed by the selection. A large number of the pipes are hand-blown by local craftsmen ("hippies") and can be found in sizes/styles to fit even the most casual smoker's price range. The one thing that I like the most about The Joint is it's staff, which is more or less the same guy with dark hair and glasses every day. He's got a wicked sense of humor and is rarely ever condescending like some of the other older, more jaded head shop proprietors on High St. can be at times. Oh yeah, I almost forgot (probably from using products from The Joint too often) to mention that this place is open super late as well to cater to your late night glassware needs. As infrequent as they may be, it's comforting to know that someone is selling whippets at 3 AM on a Tuesday. Ya know, just in case. read more

Great place w friendly staff! Awesome selection of goods

I'd called a few places looking for patterned rolling cones but most places offered unsure or lukewarm answers. The Joint immediately understood my request and told me they had a selection! Very pleased already, I headed to the shop, and wow! They're stocked to the gills with all sorts of whimsical and wonderful things. With the papers I picked up, I also found new pipes and my first Zippo. The staff is friendly, helpful, and funny! I can't wait to come back. read more

Could not be happier with the kind folks @ The Joint! I was ready to check out and they happened to mention there is a discount for an Ohio Medical Card - then hooked it up for me! They are "get it" people who have earned my business forever! Thank you so much! read more

Needed to find a shop while I was on vacation in Ohio. That sold red veined kratom. This place was recommended to me by a friend, and it turned out to be a great recommendation. This place had exactly what I was looking for and some things I didn't expect. If you're looking for a great head shop in the Columbus Ohio area, Che k this place out read more

You will not go wrong shopping here. Great hours. Parking meters right out front and the meters take credit and debit carts. Very knowledgeable staff. HOWEVER... Mind your "manners" while in the shop. Meaning, if you are caught being crass, disrespectful, over-sharing personal experiences, put products to your lips or carelessly handle gear, you may get a warning, or you may get removed from the premises. I'm not trying to dissuade anyone from going. If you are respectful, behaving like you are a guest as well as a customer, you will enjoy visiting The Joint. read more

This place is very clean and well stocked. The staff are professional and very helpful.

Perhaps you find yourself in Ohio needing some flavored tobacco...maybe some man panties either way this place has it all. -Good selection of flavored tobaccos all for around $4 or $5 I can't really remember...that day was a blur. -The dude assisting us was very helpful. He was showing us how to mix tobaccos to create a french toast flavored smoke. -An insane collection of man panties for sale. I mean insane. It's like a male stripper's delight. -Seriously the pumpkin pie flavor is magical. M-A-G-I-C-A-L. read more

The Joint is a passable but ultimately underwhelming head shop. Perhaps it is its location amongst the galleries and boutiques of the Short North, but the understated, small The Joint plays it perhaps plays it too safe and fails to be remarkable, especially to the sizeable stoner crowd on campus, who have better options closer to home. Still, if you're already in the area and need a glass waterpipe or a pack of zig-zags, The Joint is there. The prices are about what you'd expect and the selection is likewise stereotypical of the High Street headshops. But where Import House has all the class, Puff'N'Stuff's got all the porn and The Dream Merchant has a built-in tattoo parlor, The Joint is simply a headshop. Nothing more, nothing less. My friends and I once got an okay deal on a plastic waterpipe here that resembled, but did not function as, a hookah. The thing was ugly but utilitarian, and broke quickly- perhaps too quickly for the price, but we were the idiots who bought a crappy plastic waterpipe. We also bought a whisk-like head massager here, which saw a lot more use. If you're really looking for tobacco-use-only kinds of products, you probably want to take the hike to campus. If you don't really care and are just in the general mood for these sorts of things (or just want a pack of cigarettes), head to The Joint. read more

In a classic pedestrian shopper move while moving in and out of Short North shops I found myself in The Joint by simply turning left and walking through the door. Yowzah! I was in a head shop and for no reason. But instead of doing a 180 turn I did my best imitation of a cool dude from the 70s, found my groove and did an up and back. The proprietor was efficient in his sales pitch during my visit. 20% - 30% off women's "hippie bags" and when buying t-shirts I would get one for $1 with my first purchase of a t-shirt. Not bad, not bad. There were more than sufficient choices for glass pipes, bongs, inexpensive hookahs and paper/smoke supplies. What seemed out of synch was presentation. The Joint was overhead neon when they could have chosen a decor of lamp lighting to bring the white-noise look down a notch. It all seemed so sterile for an store that is an herb-enabler destination. The Joint in the north area of the Short North succeeds likely by being the place you'd hear, "Oh honey, look! A store selling paraphernalia. Let's look." There have got to be more places nearby on campus that offer things of Real Deal quality. Me? I will stick to Waterbeds 'n Stuff on Sawmill for my incense, off-color birthday cards and a moment to capture to my college youth than trip on down to High for The Joint. read more

Disappointed to have price checked the item i bought when i got home only to realize that i could have bought it on amazon and that they had marked it up like 500%. After tax i paid about $32 and i could have bought it prime for $6 and had it here tomorrow. I am all for supporting small business but i found this to be absolute high way robbery. Learned my lesson to price check first. read more

The staff was friendly and very helpful. Answered all my questions and explained how to operate, trouble shoot and care for my Smok!! A customer for life! read more

Love this place and the service. Got s Star Wars pipe for cheap because Star Wars fucking rules

Decided to wonder into this local establishment to burn some time before going back to the job. The employee was extremely informative and chill, the place had positive vibes and a great layout, definitely will be wondering in more often. read more

Met this awesome woman named Shelley at "The Joint" yesterday! The overall energy of the store felt like home, and the overall shopping experience was a success. Thank you so much to Shelley and her amazing partner that assisted me yesterday. You guys ROCK! read more

The place is awesome; if you need something specific, this is definitely the place to stop. Great stock, even better people, if you haven't stopped by already, I would highly recommend it. read more

Found everything I was looking for immesiately with the help of an amazingly helpful staff. Very welcoming environment and fantastic products. read more

Shelley helped me when I was stressed about a test that I hadn't "studied" for! I was envisioning job termination because of the failure of this test. Shelley helped me with Thorough knowledge of the products available to help me pass the test. Things are ok and all is well! Passed the test with cheating efficiency! read more

I wonder how many people have thought "This is the LAST place I want to say I visited in a Yelp review." Ha -- and remember to pay with CASH -- who wants "tobacco" paraphernalia" on their corporate AMEX, and remember you should ask for a "water pipe," and never a "bong." The people who work at this "tobacconists" are very nice, even to old people. I think a lot of boomers are re-discovering their interest in "herbs", so they are likely used to people their parents' age or older coming in. read more

Very friendly and helpful staff finding the best product for my budget. They even matched a price since the gentleman showed me an area of products for the same price. The one I picked was $15 more expensive. Thank you for a wonderful experience read more

Went to this place last night and it rocks! It was my first time but they had everything I needed! Workers are cool too. Have a wide variety of products. Its a one stop place and they do accept credit cards as well! read more

The joint is your one stop shop for all things.. freely. To be honest this place is extremely overpriced but you definitely luck out at times if you frequent this little gem, smack dab center of the short north. The employees here are always really cool and down to earth. Some pretty legit finds you won't be able get anywhere else: definitely worth a visit. Ask about club 13 Kratom and u won't be disappointed! read more

The staff at The Joint are always friendly, helpful and are knowledgable of their products. The only smoke shop I go to! I highly recommend stopping in. Their hours make doing so very convenient. Definitely one of my all time favorite shops in the Short North! read more

My friend and I went inside to buy a cheap pack of rolling papers. I began speaking only about smoking marijuana and the employees asked me if the Bugler papers were all I was buying. I said yes but there were people in the check out line ahead of me. As I began mentioning that the vaporizers looked like they were the kind specific for smoking weed, I was asked to stop talking. She asked if I was ready to check out, but at that point I felt so disrespected that I tossed the papers back.on the counter and left. I return.ed a half of an hour later and was told to leave. It's just funny because only a few nights ago we went.in.for our first time and were warmly greeted and treated kindly.by the manager Skillz. Won't be going back there unless/until those ladies get an attitude adjustment. Just saying. Or maybe I.need to "keep my.mouth shut" when.I'm.I'm.there, lol. read more

I absolutely love this place. Yeah, they can be more expensive than other smoke shops but it is completely made up for by great costumer service and knowledgable staff. Not to mention that the owners and employees adhere to strict rules that keep them on the right side of the law so you know everything that you're getting here is perfectly legal. I've gone here for my goods a few times a week for years and will continue to do so as long as I am in Columbus. Thanks for the years of great service ladies and gentlemen! read more

10JAN2017 Athens, OH My experience at The Joint I began a trial with kratom on December 14, 2016, during a visit to Florida. So far it is proving to be the first effective treatment in 30 years for my chronic, drug-resistant depression and severe pain. I'm keeping a log of my experience each day: dose, effects and duration. My first major concern was what amount to take and, second, was quality control--where could I purchase genuine mitragyna speciosa. (I got lucky with my first purchase in Florida in December but paid way too much. I also researched buying online but couldn't suss it and I was traveling at the time.) I googled "places to buy kratom in Columbus OH" because Athens had no obvious vendors. I hit The Joint link, did a photo tour then decided to visit in person. Enter Stephen Austin of The Joint in Columbus. I was greeted by a friendly person who easily answered a few of my questions then she directed me to Stephen. I had further questions which Stephen addressed in a clear and detailed manner. (I discovered later that I had interrupted him at a busy time. Patient fellow.) He took the time to listen to my concerns and he shared some stories of other folks experiences with kratom. He is a solid source of knowledge about mitragyna speciosa and many other subjects. I'm glad I visited the store and left with a new variety of kratom at a very delightful price. I trust this person so I will return again. I continue my trial with no ill-effects thus far. I highly recommend The Joint. ftm1234@icloud.com read more

The staff is super helpful and nice. The store offers a great selection of a wide variety of products. Prices are great also.

The staff here is so wonderful!!! So patient, knowledgeable and willing to help you find exactly what you are looking for. I've been coming here for 10+years and will continue to do so. Love love love love! read more

I was very happy about how my visit went. The staff was very helpful and had exactly what I was looking for.

Used to go here to buy ecigs a couple times a week but I stopped going and started ordering them online because other than the older guy; the employees are awful. I'm talking HORRIBLE customer service. (I don't know, maybe I shouldn't be knocking people whose idea of a good day is finding a six month old roach between the sofa cushions). Anyhow, when you arrive throw an extra quarter in the meter because if you're not the only one in line you're gonna be there awhile. With that being said I'm sure if I were looking for "tobacco supplies" the inventory here looks pretty outstanding. read more

When a place advertises that they are open until 3am, They should not be closed at 11:30 when someone drives for 20 minutes to get there. They really need to either change their advertised hours or have the goddamned place open when they say it is! read more
