Pop Shop & Gallery — Attraction in North Providence

I saw this place open a few months back and was curious what it was. Most things around here are either a Dunkin or pizza place, so when I was feeling adventurous and a buddy recommended it to me out of the blue, I knew I had to check it out. The place is so dope; a fun, chill, and artsy smoke shop that doubles as a purveyor of imported snacks and collectibles. Doritos from Japan, cookies from the UK, candy from China, anime sodas from Thailand, you name it. The store also has a pretty incredible secret area if you want your mind blown! The prices are reasonable and Dan the Man Behind the Counter was one of the most genuine, enthusiastic, and kind individuals I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. I'm currently enjoying my hoard of goodies he recommended and will be back to try some new snacks soon!...

I wanted to get a zimomo so I went and the man in the back said it was 400 dollars so I come back later to buy it when on the website it clearly said it was 400 dollars but the man said “no its 530 dollars now” which was very annoying because even 400 dollars is a ripoff because it is only usually 300 dollars but 530?

I will never shop here again and you shouldn't either, this is so scummy and trashy oh and by the way the man in the back was high and once I called him out he said “i MuSt HaVe MiSpOkE, oH wElL iTs NoT lIkE i CaN jUsT lEt YoU lEaVe WiTh It” which was insanely rude, I will never be returning and will make sure none of my friends who are frequent...

I just left this store five minutes ago, I entered with my sister and then a few minutes later a bunch of kids walk in, my sister and I are enjoying browsing the front part of the store. I noticed a door and went to open it into the back area. Having never there I didn’t know what was back there and was not aware it was “not safe for kids” . As I open the door to slide it open the guy behind the counter who is cashing these kids out with their moms, emphatically says “don’t do that” and the tone was not kind. My sister and I walked out and left a cart full of stuff we were excited to purchase, the snacks were overpriced anyways and J mart on Thayer street has similar snacks anyways. Bummer to be treated this way at a small local business. I will not...
