So I see this place hasn’t been reviewed in a while and I want to do my part. I was here 7/7/17 I was walking around downtown after parking up at Brazos and 2nd. I had seen this place got good reviews and I was searching for a piece I heard might be here. Upon walking in from the scorching heat, I was greeted by a warm welcome. I was feeling sick because of my unplanned walk and the cashier asked if I was ok, asked if I needed anything and when I asked if I could just stand for a minute under the a.c. vent she said to take my time and let her know if I needed anything. When I cooled enough I asked about a few pieces and finally made my decision. I purchased an atomizer which was $50, not unreasonable for the item. The cashier was super knowledgeable and super helpful but more than that, she was very nice! I will continue to come back even though I live in San Antonio because of the quality of service I received when I walked in. She also asked me to give her a review when I went back next time which I will make a point to do. Keep up the great work guys!

This hidden gem… I bring everyone I know with adventurous interests to this place. The prices are terrific and everything is relatively affordable. I also like the sexy corner and the Made in Austin section too. The Alice in Wonderland theme is what sparked my interest from the get go. The door in the ceiling is genius and I like that it’s subtle. Sometimes, they draw chalk outlines of kitty paws that lead you from the sidewalk to the door. It’s little things that make this place SO Austin! 1. It’s local! Hello! The same guys/gals that own it also own Aarons Rock and Roll which is where I’ve been getting every Ramones shirt I’ve owned for about 5 or 6 years now. 2. The prices! Seriously, I bought a “water pipe” from here at HALF the cost Planet K would sell that exact same size and quality AND 3. they’re actually pleasant and seem to enjoy their job!

I can’t hype up this place enough. Go, just go.
