Recked Smoke Shop

This place is awesome. A friendly woman greeted me and then I was helped tremendously by the owner. I just moved backed to the area and I’m glad I found a local smoke shop. A pleasant experience all around!

Awesome shop! I was pleased with how quaint the inside was. I felt welcomed, was asked if I needed help promptly, and wasn’t bothered for how long I was taking because I’m very indecisive and look up reviews for everything.
The store had a very artistic variety of pipes and water pipes. I wasn’t in for that but I did see a lot of cool ones I’d like to have. The store owner was extremely nice and helpful. I went in to purchase a ‘detox’ and knowing that the store can’t help me with that decision I took my questions to the Internet. The store carried 2 brands of what I was looking to buy and they seemed to be quality products from what I read online. I got a ‘good choice’ in the end, which was all I needed to feel good about my decision.
I will be back. The store is cool, the owner is nice, and the selection is great. Thanks!
Update: Returned to Recked to buy more X stream synthetic urine. This product works like a charm, it does its job and that’s why I went back to pick up some more. I can only vouch for this product but I’m sure anything that shop carries will work.
Once again, I had a pleasant experience! The owner/​manager even remembered me. He’s really nice but just remember that there’s a fine line between what you can talk about and what you can ask. If you’re in for synthetic urine or drinks, call it detox or the brand name. If you have a question they may or may not be able to answer it, check the internet. If you want to pass your urinalysis with no worries, buy X stream and try not to bother the dude with questions he can’t answer.
I never have cash on me but I did notice a tip jar. Now that I know that I’ll try to remember for next time. Support your local businesses!

Iv only gotten great service from recked and if I ever had a problem they were more than willing to help me. Very good selection of products and great staff.

I was greeted by a rude creature that obviously hates their job. Why work in customer service if you act like you hate people… Because of the representation I will never shop there or recommend anyone.

The best shop around with the high end glass you’re looking for. What you see online you will find here. An amazing selection of stuff to look at with a friendly and helpful staff. It’s a chill place that doesn’t try to force you into a bad purchase. Check it out.

Awesome service. Large selection. Will be returning !!! Must see smoke shop in Tampa !!!

Positively love this place! I’ve moved around to different parts of Tampa over the last 8 years or so, and have been to plenty of shops since… I no longer live close to recked, but will never shop at another place for a quality piece!
I think over the time I’ve met this «Star» that people talk about once. Couldn’t really comment there. But I can say that the selection is outstanding here, and Kory (store owner) is seriously the shit and knows his stuff!!! He saved the day for me about a year ago when one of my pieces was stolen from my car. Took time with me to let me pick out the perfect one (that I still have now) and showed me each one I asked for very kindly, and patiently. A few days ago I came back because I accidently murdered my gorgeous water pipe I had!!! I had been to 5 different shops (with zero luck…) before returning again to recked, and when I told him what I was looking for he disappeared for a moment, and came out with the coolest piece that has a dark gecko on it!
I was instantly floored. Not only did he pinpoint the type of artwork I was going for, he also remembered me from my car break-​in story from the year previous! Truly… Very outstanding service. AND… As if things couldn’t get better here?! THEY DO REPAIRS!!! So I still get to keep my older water pipe because it will be good as new soon. Could anyone really ask for anything more from a smoke shop? If you think the prices are too expensive, then you obviously don’t know the concept of quality over quantity. And truly? It’s really not THAT expensive to be honest.
If you want an aesthetically pleasing (and good QUALITY) selection, and people who are kind and willing to help you find what you’re looking for, then you should save yourself the trouble of gut wrenching disappointment from other shops and just go here first!!! You won’t be sorry. Thank you *Recked* for making me feel welcomed, and providing me with the best shopping experience EVER!!!

Gotta say i was extremely disappointed in this place. I traveled from Chicago to Tampa to visit family and popped in here for a small souvenir piece. The selection of bongs and waterpipes was impressive but the prices are absolutely outrageous! I asked to see a spoon pipe approximately 2.5 inches, single color, single blown glass. Very flimsy and very thin. The price was 30 dollars for something I could’ve purchased for 5 at a gas station in the Chicagoland area. I offered the sales person 15 for the piece, being generous, but she only implied I must only shop at flea markets for my glass. When in fact I have 2 dozen pieces in my collection including authentic Roor and Gravlabs glass. Safe to say I’ll save a few bucks and return to my local shops where they treat customers like better than stupid stoners and more like buyers who have acquired a true respect for glass and the artists behind it.

They had small amount of e cigs when i called ahed they said they had what i needed but all they had therw were bongs and gas station e cig starter kits

Well I don’t usually write reviews but this shop does not care about their customers. They do have quality glass but are also overpriced. But the real reason I am posting is because I brought in a broken glass piece to be fixed. Well guess what? I never seen it again. I kept calling and calling and calling. Every time I asked about the current status of my repair they just kept on telling me they were waiting for a part in the mail so they can fix it. Their stories didn’t match up every time I called. I could tell they never did anything with it. When i tried asking for it back they said they had already sent it out and must wait for it to return. It’s almost been a year and i’m still waiting…

Drove to Tampa from Austin, TX and had 2 different e-​cig batteries and 1 charger decide to self destruct on the way here. Needless to say I was a bit perturbed about my recent decision to quit smoking cigarettes and convert to E-​cigs… Everything changed when I walked into Recked.
The a/​c vent was blowing on her bangs just right, the subtle glow of the e-​cig case illuminating her silhouette in tones of neon pink and yellow. There in front of me stood my angel of the e-​cig, my queen of nicotine, hallowed harbinger of heavenly inhalation, Star.
I barely noticed the incredible selection of tobacco, and tobacco accessories. What can I say? I was entirely twitterpated…
I will definitely be back for future purchases, glad I found Recked Smoke Shop in time to save the day!
