Crown’d Smoke Shop 1310 Howe Avenue, Sacramento, CA 95825

"Crown'd is easily my favorite smoke shop in Sacramento. I don't live near the shop but I gladly take the trip to get the regular supplies I need. Not only do they have my favorite items like the good time wraps, grabbas, and Zemis, they also have new cool items I've never seen anywhere else, like Spiffy wraps, Jungo wraps, & mini Looseleafs. They are BLACK OWNED and very personable! On the rare occasion they don’t have what I’m looking for, they’ll usually have it by the next week! There is always a unique variety of everything! I always get asked about my dope bong selection (courtesy of Crown’d) and nobody steals my pink teddy bear torch, everybody knows it’s mine and where I got it! I also love the custom stoner bags filled with goodies! Every time I go there, they have new items, but the Stoner bags are my weakness! I love that they are color coded and super affordable for all the stuff they come with! They are open everyday and they stay open later than most shops in town! 10/10"

"I really want to support a small and seemingly Black owned (or operated) business, but the SECOND time I came in here, music was blasting at the doorway, and the shop's 2 dogs repeatedly approached us. One of the dogs was quite large, also must be said. Sometimes people smoke from trauma. I didn't freak out but **inside** I was freaked out because unleashed dogs here in Sacramento have traumatized me before, people who think their dogs are more valid/important than humans has traumatized me before here. Your dogs may be "well trained" in a certain moment, but since you don't know how they'll behave in 100 percent of scenarios, that's why leash laws exist, because the dogs have teeth and don't speak English. Your customers shouldn't be trying to make a purchase but quietly freaking out wondering if you can actually restrain your own pets that really shouldn't be in the shop anyway. No one is entitled to a business, ever, and there are many businesses of this type in the area offering comparable merch at comparable prices without the possibility of being retraumatized. Any dog, no matter how well trained, is capable of violence if it decides you "moved the wrong way" or smelled the wrong way. They weren't wearing vests. They weren't service dogs. Definitely what I think of when I think "smoke shop" is dogs, of course. I'm sure some of your target demo loves loud music and dogs running up to them repeatedly. Enjoy! Owner, don't bother replying, save your energy, you clearly don't want all customers, I don't care about your weak sauce passive aggressive excuse "it's the holidays" etc. it's my holidays too, and your overpriced stuff plus unnecessary triggering means I can actually take my biz where it's appreciated. Literally not everyone, especially traumatized people, is going to do the emotional labor of self-advocacy in the moment because you just can't realize that not everyone has had great life experiences with unleashed dogs. Also maybe work on your attitude in the other replies, there's a big diff between being casual and unprofessional. Good luck surviving as a business."

"Nice selection of products but a little pricey. Don't expect any consideration of a discount on multiple products purchased. Every loyal customer likes discounts, especially now with inflation skyrocketing. I'm new to the area and when I find a shop that shows they want to keep loyal customers by rewarding them with discounts then that is who I'll do my purchasing with. I don't plan on being a repeat customer. Let me clarify for the owner who thinks other shops/vendors don't have loyalty programs,, THEY DO, and they didn't stop when the economy got tougher. I definitely will not be back to your store. I came in to get something I needed immediately. My out-of-the area providers can and will provide me with anything I'd want in your store and I will still get my loyalty rewards. I'm hopeful that I will find a local provider near my home in Sacramento, as I already have new providers (in other areas of life) here in Sacramento that provide great customer service, which you do not. Your attitude sucked when I came into your store and your response to my review was just as ugly. Good luck staying in business-no love loss here!!!!"
