Tinder Box

This place smells amazing! Love all the quality varieties of tabacco. Staff is very helpful and pleasant. My husband's favorite shopping trip🙂

The store was well stocked, clean, organized, and well put together. The sales lady was very polite and knowledgeable about their products. They had a good selection of pipe tobaccos, mostly from their own brand, as well as pipes, cigars, and accessories.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Some great tobacco choices to try. New to the area, and this will definitely be my go to place!

Friendly staff, Amber, Jeff, Alysha, and Hannah are all great people who know their stuff. The prices are fair and the selection is actually really wide. I’ve been using their website too and I get tobacco shipped right to my door. I have nothing but good things to say about this place.

I went here on September 3rd around 11:00 am. I didn’t get the young lady’s name but she was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the products that are sold. I am a novice tobacco pipe smoker and was looking for some pipe tobacco. She was friendly and knowledgeable about the tobacco and helped me make my decision on what to purchase. Additionally the smell of the shop was delightful and the shop was clean and well taken care of. I will definitely return again. They will also ship their products.

The only place I get my pipe supplies! These guys are super knowledgeable and friendly, they don't pressure you into buying stuff you don't want, and they are super helpful if you need some assistance choosing from their huge selection of craft tobaccos. Can't recommend them enough!

Walked in not knowing what to expect. I was blown away. The shop was well organized, even the bulk estate pipes. The person working was friendly and had patience knowing I was new to pipe smoking. Even the other customer shopping was friendly wishing me the best in my pipe smoking. If you smoke pipe new or seasoned veteran and have not been to tinder box you need to make the trip!

I love this store. I don't smoke cigars but I am a big fan of premium tobacco, and the Tinder Box has plenty of those. Some are pre-rolled and prepackaged while others are sold from jars by weight. I've met the owner and he's a cool dude. I like the rest of his staff too. They're very knowledgeable and very friendly. They also sell a variety of tools and accessories for smoking purposes. By that I mean wooden smoking pipes and pipe cleaners, lighter fluids, cigar and cigarette cases, fancy lighters, and lots of other things. Also, I love the way this place smells when you walk in the door.

Right from when you walk in the store they focus on you, the customer, and make sure your needs are met before you walk out that door again. What else could I ask for? Never been disappointed.

I know very little about cigars. My dad, however, is somewhat of an aficionado. So, I came in hoping to get some help with a great Father’s Day gift idea and Taylor killed it! She was extremely helpful and really went out of her way to make this one of the best Father’s Day gift I’ve ever gotten for the old man. Thanks Taylor!!! You rock and this shop is a fine example of a premium tobacconist with amazing old school customer service.

Been to a lot of nice tobacco shops in my years, but Tinder Box wins hands down on overall customer service. Very friendly, knowledgeable staff that stands behind their products. Prices are very great too. Skip the internet and get your goods here.

I've been shopping there since they were at their old location in the Tacoma Mall. I bought one of my first pipes there in the 70's and still have it. You'll find a great selection of fine pipes and tobaccos. There is a large walk-in humidor filled with fine cigars and a nice selection of smoking accessories.

This place is amazing. HUGE cigar selection. Tobacco pipes on the walls. numerous options. great tobacco selection as well. service was awesome. made great suggestions to a new pipe smoker and informed me they can special order tins which is nice to know because ordering blends online in washington is hard because not every company ships here. i forgot the womans name i worked with but she was a lil shorter and super nice and helpful. thank you folks for selling quality locally

This is the best place in this part of Washington, if you are a pipe smoker. I wish I lived closer. The staff is great. The five star rating is based on this area. The competition is really lacking. The cigar selection is very good but the prices are high. That is a Washington State thing. I believe they must be trying to drive all tobacco traffic to the reservations. Forget about finding good pipes and pipe tobacco on a local reservation. This is the place for that

Great selection of tobacco products and accessories - gifts, cigars and everything in between. Awesome walk-in humidor, good sheesha on the shelf and fair prices across the board, it's a fine location with a pleasant atmosphere and friendly employees. It's always easy to find what you're looking for if you're keen on what that is, though their repertoire of tobacco products may keep you choosing!

I've been to the store three times now and the staff has always been super friendly and helpful. The store has a wide variety of quality products. I purchased some tobacco and a Zippo lighter and the young lady behind the counter filled the Zippo with lighter fluid. I was not expecting that. That's awesome service!

A great assortment of cigars, pipes and loose tobacco. One of a kind gifts for those friends who are hard to shop for as well. Knowledgeable friendly staff set them apart from other retailers although no one even comes close to their variety.

I have been shopping at this store for several years. I have found the staff to be courteous, friendly, and knowledgable. It is one of the few places left in Washington State that understands cigars, pipe tobacco, and the accessories needed for a good smoke and experience.

Awesome staff. They are super friendly and have made recommendations that are exactly what I was looking for. Good selection. I’ve ordered things and they have a perfect follow through record. Just a good store that cares about their customers. It shows.

I recently found a Peterson pipe on line that I decided to buy. I've shopped at the Tinder Box going back to the years when they were located in the Tacoma Mall, so I'm familiar with their friendly staff and great selection. I contacted the store and asked if they could order the pipe for me. Not only were they willing to do that, but they matched the on-line retailer's price without being asked. I am delighted with the pipe, and with my experience in purchasing it through the Tinder Box.

If you are searching for a store with a great selection of tobacco, pipes, accessories, a great humidor, and above all, a staff with a real customer service attitude, you can do no better than to take your trade to the Tinder Box of Tacoma.
