Oldtown Tobacco

Oldtown Tobacco in Newtown, NSW, is one of those friendly local spots that’s become a bit of a neighborhood fixture. The store stocks all your typical tobacconist essentials like cigarettes, rolling papers, and lighters. What really sets this place apart though is the top-notch service you’ll get from the staff, particularly from Ish, who visitors say is an absolute legend when it comes to customer care.

The prices here are pretty reasonable, with visitors consistently mentioning they’re getting good value for their money. We’ve heard that they’ve even been running some ripper deals lately, which has got the locals pretty chuffed. The store accepts all the usual payment methods including EFTPOS, cards, and cash, so you won’t need to make a special trip to the ATM.

One thing that’s particularly handy about this place is their extended trading hours. They’re open from 9am every day of the week, staying open until 1am Monday through Wednesday and Sunday, 2am on Thursdays, and pushing through until 3am on Fridays and Saturdays. Perfect for those late-night emergency runs or if you’re working unusual hours.

The staff here really know their stuff and are always happy to explain things to customers who might need a bit of guidance. Visitors consistently mention how the team goes above and beyond to make sure everyone gets exactly what they’re after. They’re particularly good at breaking down complicated information into easy-to-understand explanations, which is something you don’t always get at your average tobacco shop.

It’s not just about the products here – it’s the whole experience. The atmosphere is welcoming, and you can tell the staff genuinely care about providing good service. Whether you’re a regular or just dropping in for the first time, you’ll likely find yourself having a decent chat with the friendly team while you’re there.
