Beautiful glass, pleasent staff. Came in today and grabbed a super nice water pipe at a great price for the holidays, and was allowed to spin a wheel for a gift. Was awarded a mystery prize which was a phenomenal cleaning kit for said water pipe. Easily 30 bucks. We were already in the market for one. Anyways. Thank you all! Have a great 4/20!Ignore the review ahead of mine calling the staff rude by Carlee. Whoever she is, she should remove said stick from said place.Youre all great(:
Workers are always very knowledgeable and friendly with punch cards punched for every 10 dollars spent offers 25 percent off are a great benefit. Selection of vape devices, legal THC, pipes and other products are always bountiful.
Absolutely the sweetest staff with the best advice and recommendations! I left feeling really well taken care of and with the perfect vape for me.
Absolutely awful place. It was so much better when it was ‘high above state street’. The staff (two younger men) are incredibly rude and will yell at you. The are of no help if you have questions and will judge you the whole time you’re there. I’ll definitely stick to the other shops in Madison as this place has gone down the drain due to the awful people there.
Lol the girls in that joint needs to be checked on their horrendous ego. Bunch of faqots
This place is fantastic and the staff are wonderful. I bought a NORD 4 (80W) KIT and was accidentally given the incorrect nord coils. I called back the following day and Sasha not only was in credibly personable, but very very knowledgeable. I didnt even finish explaining the problem and she already knew what it was. I got and Uber there and called to let her know I was on my way. No joke, she solved to the issue within 3 minutes. She is most definitely management/owner material if she isnt already in that position. If you ever have an issue here, ask for Sasha! Thanks again!
If you havent visited Knuckleheads at their new Madison location, youre missing a great experience! Its beautifully spacious (no problem social distancing safely), with sparkling cases full of colorfully displayed glass and other products. The best part of the visit is always interaction with the staff who are friendly, patient, and helpful. I cant speak to issues of pricing as I dont take my business to other competitors, but I can reassure anyone that every product is of high quality. Im especially particular about CBD products and the lines carried at Knuckleheads are reliable and well worth their cost. I appreciate the individual help and advice staff offer. They are great listeners!
Love the store, has some of my favorite products that other stores dont have in the area. every time I come in there, the staff is attentive, but I dont necessarily feel welcome and the staff is passive aggressive at times. there have been a couple times where seals have been broken and on 4/20 there were some staff hitting illegal carts behind the desk, but the only thing that bothered me was that they seem annoyed every time a customer needed assistance with anything. there are a few staff members that are attentive, talkative, and friendly, but overall this isnt my experience every time. there is only one staff member that seems to be confident in cannabinoid knowledge and he was also talkative and very friendly. Overall it is my go to shop but the staff seem annoyed by customers.
Each visit is heavily dependent on the staff for whether or not it will be an enjoyable experience or not.Sometimes it seems theres no one better and I absolutely love going there, and actually spending some real money, but then sometimes, its one of the couple bad apples working who helps you, making sure never to make any eye contact, while fiddling with all things around that are not your question, and then eventually youre too frustrated andwithout a single answer to my several questions. But again, this experience is the least common and most times its the bomb dot com.
Dont buy any vape here. I bought one the other day, but it was totally broken when I first used it and they said they cannot refund me due to a stupid policy that they made.
I think knuckleheads is a rare gem. I remember going back there when i was a teen for shirts and skateboards. i bought the cigar for when i graduated from their humidor. even with the changes over time, this business has and always will be a madison classic. even when i go in these days the staff go above and beyond, the managers are so freaking nice, and what ever you need is right there. theres a reason they took over pipefitter. sorry chumps but they are better.
Julia was incredibly helpful.I stopped in to pick up groomsmen cigars for a wedding. Julia offered quality and realistic recommendations for our budget and found the perfect cigar for the groom—he was very happy.Her customer service was top-notch but even further exceeded expectations by taking a couple extra minutes to meticulously hand package our cigars and accessories beautifully in a wooden box.Thanks Julia, youre the best!
Just came here for the first time today. Best place ever! The wonderful representative Julia was working the CBD section.Julia was super knowledgeable, friendly, and honest.I will MOST DEFINITELY be coming back!!!
Bought a torch from this location YESTERDAY. Worked for maybe a couple times and wouldn’t light again. Brought it back thinking I would be given a new torch on the spot, but I was told I need to handle the inconvenience of sending it in for warranty and being short a torch for however long it takes to get there and then come back and pay for the postal. To me this defeats the purpose of buying it retail, I could’ve gotten it online for cheaper and would’ve taken half the time to get there.That being said the staff there are not to blame for their policy. They handled the situation as best as they could. They gave me a new cheap torch for the inconvenience, but I still had to pay for it!The staff here are great: helpful and knowledgeable... but the store as a whole didn’t cater to the customer in this instance and has made my experience a big headache.
I used to love going here! Staff was super friendly. I went to pick up some king palms the other day and the lady working there didn’t hand them to me, she tossed them at me. I work retail, and I know how exhausting it can get- but PLEASE treat your customers better.
Was in here today with a friend of mine and while we were browsing, we were helped by Julia! She was a huge help and got us a great deal on numerous pieces!Julia was awesome and I will definitely be coming back to shop here soon :)
I was suggested to this place by my brother. When I first entered the store i was very pleased and surprised by there large selection of pipes/waterpipes and smiling faces from the employees. I made my way to the back to purchase some CBD flower.They had a really nice selection of CBD flower that I have not seen before. I was greeted by a tall young man with very long blonde hair I didnt catch his name. I decided to get 7 grams of moonrock CBD and asked is this a sativa or indica. In which he snapped and rudely said to me DUDE! This is CBD its none psychoactive you wont get high. When i was just curious if this is a good strain to take right before bed or starting your day. I brushed it off as i am a pretty humbled person bit when i got home... i was a little frustrated. The first time i looked at the bag i noticed it was pretty small so i decided to measure it myself. Only to find out he gave me instead of 7 grams (In which i asked for) he gave me 3.5 grams. I was disappointed i felt ripped off. I unfortunately will not be bringing my business here any more and i am curious have he done this to anyone else.P.s I will be coming back if i need a new pipe they do have a nice selection.
Horrible shop, owner admits to bootlegging and brags about it on facebook. would be extremely cautious especially if purchasing vape pens. protect your lungs and buy from a legitimate store instead
Ive been coming here regularly for the past year or so, I love the selection of glass and vape juice here. My favorite part though, is the lounge. Its a great place to chill and get some work done while enjoying a cigar or a new flavor of juice.
First I want to say that this place is AMAZING. I dont know her name but the lady with the dreads was the one who helped my fiance and I pick out some vapes that were right for us. She was very knowledgeable and helpful. They gave me 10% off because my vape was the display and the guy that checked us out gave us a silicone wax container for free. They were all so helpful and knowledgeable. Staff members were right there and ready to answer any and all questions that we had. The people here ARE the definition of true customer service and they are amazing. I suggest stopping here for all your smoking/vaping needs!👍👍
My absolute favorite smoke shop in Madison. I dont go really anywhere else. Would highly recommend for any range of smoker.
Knuckleheads has what are easily the best prices in the campus area, as well as the best range of products. The employees are friendly and will help you find what you need the moment you walk in the door. There is a designated vaping lounge and there also seems to always be a sale when I go there which are definitely some nice bonuses.
I was looking for a vaporizer to help me quit cigarettes. Welcoming and laid back, they helped me pick out a mod that works great, and when I was accidentally given an incorrect item, the shipped it to me free of charge with a handwritten and friendly note of apology. Wonderful business with a great atmosphere and good employees. Thank you so much guys. Youre the best!
Usually fun times at Kheads but, was visiting the new store for the first time and was pretty much told to leave and that they didn’t have what i was looking for even tho it was right there in front of me… dark hair girl and older gentleman. i wasn’t in my stoner clothes i was in my athlete clothes and i think they were judging or something. miss being high above state as well SOS
Nobody is able to review establishments it seems. For those wondering (all of you reading the google reviews), this place DOES have a large humidor filled with a good selection of Cigars; including actual Cuban Cohibas. Pipes look shiny!
These guys know their stuff. From vaporizers to water pipes you can trust that these dudes know the industry. Super friendly, cordial, and professional these guys have my business hands down. Best smoke shop in Madison or dare I say Wisconsin.
Love this place for starters, this smoke shop is the only one Ive been going to for about a year now and they havent disappointed me since. Overall the staff know their stuff, and are willing to help you in anyway possible. Con: if you dont like stairs you might have a difficult time to the store.😆
The staff was very knowledgeable and helped me to find exactly what would work best for me. Great customer service!
Best customer service I have had in years! Im new to vaping, Theran helped me out more then I had ever imagined anyone would. I knew very little about it all, but just enough to know some names of products because I purchased a few things for my wife as gifts. He lead me in the right direction, taught me about the options out there and even took the time to teach me how to hand wrap coils! He got everything set up for me as perfect as anything in life could get. Very pleasant fellow, and I thoroughly enjoyed this experience, wont go anywhere else from now on! Sorry if I misspelled your name!
Bought a water pipe at this place. I got home and realized the guy had forgotten to include the slide. I called immediately and told the employee who said, No I remember wrapping up the slide and putting it in there. There was no slide in the bag. He may have wrapped it up but it was not in the bag. He refused to believe me and basically told me I was SOL. He said if I came back in he could give me a discount for a new slide. I really had no choice. Came back in, he charged me a discounted 45$ for a new slide and said, Try not to lose this one. Funny guy. Wont ever be coming back here and will tell everyone to avoid this shady place.
Bought a cbd cartridge here and Im really pleased with it so far! Staff was very friendly and since it was my first time buying cbd they even gave me a small discount! Ive never had anything less than a satisfactory experience here before. Wide selection of smoke products as well as incense and other things.
Its a great place to go. But their CBD is not maintained properly, mainly the herb. Ive been a frequent window shopper and while the customer service is great, it doesnt make up for their lack of knowledge in their products. I would recommend going but keeping other shops on State Street in mind for purchasing the same products. (Especially the CBD)
Great selection, and Im just talking about cigars in that walk-in humidor. Lots of glass and other accessories. Staff are really friendly and very knowledgeable. Always willing to offer guidance.
After shopping here many times over the years, I decided to buy a piece of glass from them. Dont do that. Youd be better off going to another place. Or just get a cheap piece of China glass that you could throw away and purchase again because at least it would be a better quality piece than some of the stuff they are trying to sell you here.
Decent selection of cigars, but very little in the way of pipe tobacco. Ive visited three times, and two of those times the guy checking me out was high. It says tobacco and gifts, but I think its really more for vapers and weed smokers.
Knuckleheads is a great organization, from their friendly and knowledgeable staff to the management and ownership. I had a great experience and would recommend Knuckleheads to anyone who vapes in MadisonTherrin and Decker are great managers. They took the time to answer all my questions and I had a ton. Thank you for the excellent service I received.
Amazing selection of tobacco products. Walk-in humidor for cigars. Some apparel available. Smoking lounge tucked away in the back. Most staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. Tends to be popular with annoying tourists, but thats not Knuckleheads fault.
Very friendly staff. A great selection of items. And the prices were honestly the cheapest Ive seen! 10/10
I was visiting from Indiana and realized I was out of juice for my vape. Since we were down at the farmers market, I walked down to your store. Not only was the staff knowledgeable and friendly, we had a conversation about the new laws Indiana just passed for vape shops. I was also pleasantly surprised at how inexpensive their juice is compared to what Im used to paying in Indiana. You guys will be my go to vape shop every time Im in Madison!
One of my favorite stops even when I used to visit from out of town. Staff is so knowledgeable. And they always seem to have the best music playing!
Decent selection of vape stuff. Staff wasnt super knowledgeable about the products i was after, but it didnt make a big difference to me. Huge selection off glass and tobacco accessories. Im gonna be looking around for other good vape/head shops, but Knuckleheads is a solid option!
Going into the business is slightly off-putting (as you do have to go up a stair case immediately), but once youre up the scary stairs this place is WAY better than Pipefitters! Its for sure my new go-to!
Walking up so many stairs to find a dirty, smelly attic filled with dirty, smelly staff who rather text and smoke cigs than to help someone who is bringing money all the way up there is a joke! You gotta be kidding me! The glass is overpriced by a long shot. Who ever said this place is the best must work there or has never been to any other head shop...ever.
Love coming to this store, always something new to browse.One employee today was particularly helpful helping me find some good e-juice. He nailed it with Red Velvet Oreo!
IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING SHOPPING HERE PLEASE READ THISI recently had the worst customer service experience in my life, I purchased of an item that appeared to be in working condition; however after bringing it home I noticed marking (sub-dermal breaks) in the glass, which Ive come to learn means the product will be breaking soon. Before I had the chance to bring it in, while putting the product into a padded case it broke exactly on the line. Total time: 12 hours. Now this was custom made by their glass blower, so I brought it back expecting them to understand that sometimes custom stuff isnt made the best so rectification is necessary, but thats not what I got. Instead I was dismissed, refused any semblance of help from employees, and told to get the f*** out of the store, leading me to file a dispute claim with my credit card. Later I returned to give them another chance to fix the product allowing me to redact the claim, however I was immediately met with rudeness, followed by attacks on my character and moral being for simply trying to get this worked out. This culminated in an employee hollering and cursing me out to the point where I no longer feel safe in this store. I urge you, before shopping here read this review, dont end up in the situation Im in. Dont be afraid to pay a little extra for good customer service.
Im a fan of head shops, but this one is uncomfortable, dirty, and the employees arent very welcoming (unless youre a grungy older dude, cause the customer base is obviously focused on that demographic.) If youre looking for vape supplies, look elsewhere. Theyre overpriced for the same products you can get at vape-specific shops, and they dont have a wide variety of juices. (I chose not to purchase anything because of the state of gross the store was in.)
I recently bought a product from this store that they promised would work. Also keep in mind that this product was extremely overpriced, and I will never be giving them my business again. Clearly they’re just here to make sales and don’t care about their customers. Huge disappointment.
Definitely recommend this shop if youre new to vaping. They know their stuff. I vape cbd oil so I needed help choosing a device and the right coil. I used a different vaporizer with a high resistance coil that recent broke and found that i was using the wrong coil so i was burning the oil instead of vaporizing it. Just used what they recommended and felt the hit that I was supposed to. I wasted so much oil in the past. Go to these guys!
I reviewed another head shop in Madison this past 2 weeks knucklehead and one other head shop in Madison REITs five stars I like their location thats pretty cool its unique great selection I like all their hookahs I like all their pipes pretty cool place to go reasonable inexpensive
Super helpful people, threw discounts at me because I was a first time CBD buyer there. Radical. Thought they were overpriced but its pretty decent pricing. Definately coming back!
A very relaxed upstairs smoke shop with excellent prices and a very friendly staff. I live near state street and this is my go to place. Also a great humidor.
I pick up inscents here, price is right and they always have my scents.. wont tell yall the scent but check em out. 😅😎
Always friendly and helpful service. So many new items. Following strict safety measures. Made me feel safe and welcomed.
Im not happy, I spend at least a hundred dollars in this shop every 2 to 4 weeks. Slowly increasing prices. Im about done. Sometimes its less however lately its been more the last three times Ive gone in.
Wonderful array of products with very kind and thoughtful employees, a little pricey sometimes but theres always reasonable options :)
Best smoke shop on campus probably but they will ID you for even a bottle of water
Love the Knuckleheads crew. They always take great care of me. They appreciate your business and its always great vibes when I come in.
Every thing you need, staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, store is amazing, greeted with a smile and I felt I was back in 1972. Highly recommended!
Amazing knowledgeable staff and extensive selection. Happy to educate me and answer all my questions. Been shopping at Knuckleheads for several years now and will continue to. Thank you!
I ONLY go get my patchouli & other inserts. 💕
Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Wide variety of products in store. I really appreciated the delivery option during the pandemic!
Great selection, never disappoints.... My favorite place for CBD products.....
Variety of selection in products, consistent sales available on select products and notably intelligent, professional staff able to help direct and educate consumers on products.
Very knowledgeable staff. Made my purchase so easy and made me comfortable spending time and money there.
Its like a smokers Target. You go in expecting to buy one thing but end up buying more. The people are extremely welcoming and make sure you are taken care of.
The sales people are always really nice and helpful! They make it really easy to to find what youre looking for and have great suggestions.
Staff is always very friendly and informed on their products. Its been my go-to place since 2014!

LOVE this place! Had an awesome experience and the woman that helped us what great. Definitely recommend.
Knuckleheads is great, the vape guy therin knows alot, helps me everytime, honestly i wouldnt go there if it wasnt for therin
Best smoke shop on state, theyre all good, but for quality selection, I stop here forst.
Staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. There were many options so I never felt like I was not getting what I wanted.
I can literally find something they sell for $38.99 for $20.00 from a different smoke shop and $15.99 online. Why would I ever go here again.
Extremely rude employees
Love the shop. Got a vape from therin and i couldnt be more happy with the service.
Only head/smoke shop I go to in Madison. Been to some others, but this is my personal favorite no doubt.
Love this place. They have snuss, bali shag, and a great staff. Best smoke shop on state
Lots of cool stuff here! The employees are super helpful too.
Staff was very helpful and friendly. They helped me find the perfect piece.
Hands down, the best vape/smoke shop in madison, people are great and they always give the best deals
Super helpful staff. Open late, decent prices, excellent selection.
What a nice shop. They actually had what i needed and it was a good price.
When I went in with a system that was faulty, the staff was quick to respond and even replaced it for free. Definitely worth a visit
Awesome place with awesome people! Andrew and Gavin are too legit to quit!
Going above & beyond in providing satisfaction, delivering quality product, excellent promo deals and adhering to protocol.
