Curtis is a gear guy who really cares about his shop and product. I have never had such a great experience at a smoke shop!

Curtis is an upstanding man and his communication is impeccable. Great items for sale and even better customer service. Make sure ya stop by online or in person to experience what customer service should be like everywhere else.

I went there to get a vape device to quit smoking and left with a high quality device and some tasty juice for around $50. Customers service is top notch. Curtis helped me pick a flavor and I even tried the device before I bought( which I think would be a risk for him if I didn’t buy it) but it taste good and Hits good. I also should add that I didn’t know anything about vaping. I just don’t want to smoke anymore so I walked in on a whim and he explained how the device works, filling it and how long the juice last. Went back for another flavor and another guy there is just as helpful. Definitely a store to check out. They also have a ton of glassware there.

Best glass shop in town, great selection of American glass, Curtis always takes great care of me wouldnt shop anywhere else!!!

Great place lotta stuff very friendly staff

Best headshop in town. The owner is an excellent businessman and always takes care of his customers. Quality products and the owner always stands behind his product.

Curtis is the bomb! He’s so friendly and very knowledgeable about his products. I bring everyone i know to his shop because of the wonderful and pleasant experience as well as amazing prices!

When in need of hookah supplies pass by the gentleman I met there with his dog was pretty cool and welcoming

You would only be wasting your time if you were to shop anywhere else. I have known Curtis for 20 years! I dont know why I havent been on here sooner. Curtis is a straight forward guy and would steer you wrong. He carries some of the best glass in Florida. If its not high quality, durable and made in the U.S.A he doesnt carry it. I have sent too many people to count to High Tides and not one person was unsatisfied. I would recommend this great business with small town hospitality to anyone. Keep up the great work Curtis!

GREAT PLACE!!! i bought a puffco peak for 315.23 after tax and a 10% discount. all peak accessories are 20% off as long as you have your old recipet. at this time modern age peak sells for 400.00 plus tax. but most of all was the owner nice and shows gratitude toward customers.

Curtis, the owner, along with employees Nate and Brooke are the best. They will guide you in the right direction. They’re selection is top notch and everything in there is basically guaranteed if it doesn’t work and you aren’t a douche. Curtis takes care of his customers. I won’t shop any where else. If I could get them 20 out of 10.

High Tides is a Gainesville institution. Good selection for glass. They are batting really well when meeting my needs. They also may throw in something extra; anything from a couple cheap lighters to a round mat for your glass water you know what. Last time I got a minor discount to work with my budget.The staff is excellent. They are accommodating and knowledgeable about their stock. I got an item I wasnt looking for because they knew what options would serve my particular need. It was a cheaper option AND not one Im going to lose in a few days (super skinny wire) This is my store.

Curtis (Owner) is a true boss who has always been very helpful. I wouldn’t go to any other smoke shop for any purchase, major or minor. High tides really sets the standard for what a smoke shop should be. I’ve been in a rush and been thoroughly helped in less than two minutes, and I’ve come in on a lazy Sunday just to browse and learn more info on products. I’d recommend going to another smoke shop before going here m, just to see the true difference in quality of customer service.

Open for no contact ordering during apocalypse. Great team. Adore them all.

I love these guys, always helpful and friendly!

The best shop in town.... Curtis is a great owner that really takes pride in making sure his customers are taken care of. I just bought one of the new C2 High tides colors edition and I love it!! There is a large variety of great pieces. If your ever in Gainesville be sure to stop by and check out High Tides...

YeeHaw - Great place! They have everything you could possibly need. Im old school and they had what I wanted plus educated me on the newer options available. Great incense selection and cool gadgets/accessories. Prices are competitive with online stores and its nice to be able to hold the piece youre about to use every freaking day!How You Doin?

Great experience going here after seeing the prices and inventory at other places in town. Prices are on point. Not a huge selection but more than enough inventory and specialty pieces. Didnt even buy anything and they were more than happy to spend the time with me. Will definitely go here when I need something in the future.

My roommate broke his newly purchased $20 bowl immediately after we arrived back to our place. The store owner replaced it free of charge with a more expensive bowl when we returned minutes later. This shop is the real deal.

Best smoke shop in town! They have everything you need or want for smoking. From incense to lighters of all kinds, if you need it to enjoy your smoke break they can help you. 😁

Awesome selection

Ive been coming to high tides for YEARS. and they have the best price & quality & customer service in town. I highly recommend shopping here, I always leave with a big smile on my face.

This is the best local shop ever!!! Curtis and Anna are great people and will always give you their unbiased and exhausting knowledge about whatever it is you need to know. Their C2 collection is probably the best and I love their local charm.

These guys are great! Ive gotten several things from high tides and Kurt and his employees always do an amazing job. I currently brought back a vape that is having issues and with no questions I got a temporary one until they can resolve the problem with the mod. Id refer high tides to anyone, definitely continuing to give them business. Keep up the great work!

The single best shop in town. All of the products are high quality, reasonable priced, and the customer service is 10 out of 10 every time. They are always helpful and knowledgeable about the products and now its the only shop I use.

Curtis and his son and the girl are such awesome people. This place is legit to buy juice and newer vape devices. Love coming here for the products and the hospitality. Gets a five star in my book!

Love this place. I dont go anywhere else anymore. Small place but they always send me out happy.

Amazing customer service and unbeatable stores. Infinitely better than smoke city or modern age! Best in town

High tides is Awesome! Customer service is better than any head shop in Gainesville. Curtis, the owner, is happy to answer questions about anything in the store and knows what he’s talking about. Their custom creation pieces are some of the nicest glass I have ever used. I highly recommend this place over any head shop in the Gainesville area.

The owner Curtis, showed me various beautiful blown glass pieces and had a good conversation. Very welcoming and friendly guy.

Excellent store and the owner is awesome. Most times he gives a little discount (every bit helps).

Awesome place. If I need something for my tobacco needs I know Curtis has what I need. High Tides never lets me down.

Great shop! Their inventory is high quality & the guy that helped me was amazing. I had an incredible experience there & will be going back very soon!

Awesome Owner,helpful staff, great prices and a wide array of products I recommend this place !

This place is not that great. Minimum selection with better choices at other stores in town. The icing on the not visiting this places cake though is the guy who runs it. Yeah hes been here forever, and Ive been a casual customer over the years, but man he really has no interest in going out of his way to lift a finger to help the customer. He really doesnt seem to understand that hes in the service industry and that in Gainesville theres plenty of other, and better head shops in this town that does care and will give quality customer service. I write this review not just from my experiences as being treated poorly but from my observations over time of seeing this happen. Trust me, hit up some other shop in town, youll be glad you did.

Outstanding customer service.They actually care about peoples well being . Thats refreshing.in thesetimes.

The owner, and store operator at the time of my visit, is a very knowledgeable, and created a friendly, fun environment. Highly recommend this shop over any other in Gainesville. Did I mention the prices are on spot, and not overpriced like Modern Age Tobacco and Gifts. I mean... where else will you find someone willing to throw spoosn across the room to prove their quality?

Gainesvilles OLDEST, locally owned small business of its type. Unbreakables started here, the Owner will go out of his way to get you what you legally need. Quality over quantity and there is diverse selections for everyone.

The owner is super friendly and helpful! By far the best experience. Made my day

Smaller shop, but far better prices than modern age!

BEST smoke shop in GVILLE! Dont go to modern age or smoke city because they have cheap Chinese made glass. High Tides know what they are doing from glass, to vapes, to tobacco. He cares about his customers and he always keeps us coming back. HIGH TIDES IS MY GO TO SMOKE SHOP!

Used to be my go-to headshop but the service last night was atrocious. Couldnt get the clerk to look at up from the computer. Had to ask for her time to even check out. Sorry, going to Modern Age from now on.

Walking into the shop have your ID ready but expect the best service, most knowledgeable sales reps, and greatest selection in Gainesville. Very friendly customer service no matter who is working and all employees know the products very well. Im overall very satisfied with my experience at High Tides every time I visit. I wouldnt shop elsewhere in Gainesville.

Love this place! Always friendly! Curtis is great ♡ #1 shop in Gainesville

Best damn customer service in Gainesville. Quality American Made glass for honest prices.

Best smoke shop in gainesville. friendly knowledgeable staff, the owner is cool and the atmosphere is relaxed with decent prices

Best customer service in town. No other smoke shop can compare

Friends recommended that I check out High Tides and Im glad I did! The prices are so much better than other shops in town. Also, the owner is super nice and answered all my ridiculous questions. I cant recommend this place enough, it far exceeds others in the Gainesville area.

Great place to go.... super friendly and knowledgeable .... Will definitely return.

Amazing staff, amazing glass. Every item is of the highest quality

Super helpful staff who want to help you out and not just take your money, best shop in town.

Always great with helping with anything you need. They actually have a conversation with you every time you go in there which for some one without all the technical knowledge can take away some of that intimidation of spending some money on some quality good whatever they may be.

The guys here are wonderful people, super helpful, very considerate and sell great products.

Ive been to all of the tobacco and gift shops around town, and this is the first that I can say has quality products, and a knowledgeable friendly staff.

Great place love them guys

No bull shiz kinda place. Got some great advice so I dont break more glass.

Excellent 1-stop shopping 4 all of my tobacco smoking needs...

Double ratchet percs C2, dab ninja quartz bangers and spinning carb caps, what can I say? great prices, customer service top notch.

Awesome e-cig stuff. wonderful glass selection as well! nearly everything ive ever bought there has been less than the price on the sticker. the bossman there is by far my favorite small business owner in gainesville. dude is a wonderful salesman.

The owner knows what he is talking about...and you can get your medical marijuana card there as well

The best head shop in Gainesville, as far as head shops in Gainesville go. Always had whatever I was looking for and the owner was always helpful and knowledgeable.

Love this Gainesville institution
