I dropped by Shanti Baba to buy some incense and was so intrigued by all those really need "smoking" supplies...
I don't smoke.. but was amazed by all this pipes, bongs and how they can be a piece of artworks in itself...
And Shanti Baba opening till late on Friday and Saturday... I wondering who are coming to shop and what they are shopping for at the after hours.. maybe I have to stay pass my bed time one day to find out!Listed in: A Day in Queen Street…

I was about to describe Shanti Baba as "the store on Queen Street that smells dope!" and wouldn't you know, that is the store's actual tagline. ACTUALLY. Go look at the website. So yeah - every time you're walking towards Gandhi to pick up your overpriced-but-sinfully-delicious roti, this is the place you walk by that smells like a hippie enclave.
They sell all sorts of paraphernalia in here, like vaporizers, bongs, pipes, scales and cleaners, however, there is no reason to ever come in this store for anything other than Nag Champa incense. I buy it here by the wheelbarrow, no joke. They practically give it away - it's something like six cartons of 20 sticks for $15. I should probably ask myself why I burn so much frigging incense.
On Fridays and Saturdays it's inexplicably open until 3am. I have no idea what sort of transcendent/new age/John Tesh/Age Of Aquarius/celestial wind chimes/voodoo mayhem is taking place in here at 3am on a Friday, and maybe I don't want to know. All I know is that this is my trusted incense supplier!Listed in: The Most Random Things I've…

love this place.
even though i live up the street, it's one store that isn't constantly inhibited with 905's wanting to go home from Downtown Toronto with marijuana memorabilia (ie. Friendly Stranger up the street closer to University Ave).
The store is jammed pack of smokin' 'stuff', such as hand blown B.C. glass bowls, pipe cleaners, resin cleaner, etc and it's all reasonably priced for being so central.
The staff is friendly & knowledgeable, and makes your cruise around the store looking at stuff fairly entertaining.
They do have some hand crafted furniture and other wooden household furnishings. All good quality, original pieces.
One of those cool stores to check out, even if you don't smoke.
