I have been going to the Billerica smoke shop before it was even called the Billerica smoke shop. I've been going there since it's been called Mall news and I think that is an amazing store ever since I've walked in there my first time and I think that is even better as of this day

This place is awesome. Give them more top fill novo 2 pods please! Supply and demand. Almost bought all of them but decided not to when silly employee judged me. Go big or go home man! Go celtics!

I asked for and received cigar advice from friendly staff on an excellent Cameroon wrapper smoke.

I unexpectedly walked into this smoke shop just to buy a lighter, and little did I know I’d be meeting the “butane lighter wizard” himself—someone who clearly knows everything about torch lighters. I was genuinely impressed, so much so that I ended up buying more of the same lighters online because I'm from California and can't visit them every time I am in need of more items. All jokes aside, this shop is fantastic. I was treated with real care, and they made sure I left with exactly what I needed for a great night of cigar smoking with friends and family.

Have you ever felt completely out of your element? That was me, a 50-year-old virgin smoker, walking into a smoke shop for the first time—like stepping into a marina without knowing the difference between a bow and a stern. But I digress. As a bourbon enthusiast for the past decade, I’ve explored countless flavors and notes. A friend recently introduced me to an Ashton Classic cigar, and just like that, I was intrigued. So, there I was, stepping into unfamiliar territory at Billerica Smoke Shop, completely unsure of where to start. Enter George, the owner—who immediately sensed my rookie status. I did inform him of my recent interest. The look in his eyes said " Ahhh yes, I remember my first cigar, kid". Instead of overwhelming me, he guided me through my options with patience and enthusiasm, no pressure, just thoughtful recommendations. He assured me that cigar appreciation is a slow and enjoyable journey, and with his guidance, I picked a small variety to start. Even after my purchase, we had a great conversation—something rare in today’s fast-paced retail world. Whether you're a seasoned cigar aficionado or a newcomer like me, I highly recommend stopping by and seeing George. He’s one of those rare business owners who truly loves what he does and enjoys sharing his passion with others. I’ll definitely be back soon—thanks, George!
