Every time I've come here they've been beyond patient and helpful with me, with all my questions/concerns. Their pricing is totally reasonable and even when they're busy they still take time with each person which I really appreciate. I am excited to see where this shop goes and hopefully it can expand in the future! :) read more

They have this new thing going on where when you pay, and they give you your change, they steal a dollar and put it into the tip jar themselves! This happened to me for the first time recently. I was amused by the audacity. I had been coming to this place for a couple years. Hey management, for a dollar, you lost a customer forever. However, if I go around, and see that EVERY place does this, then I'll retract my bad rating and correct myself for not understanding the new norm of people tipping themselves with your money. Maybe I'm old fashioned, and I shouldn't care if I lose a dollar here and there to someone just ... taking it. Until I have evidence to believe otherwise, I'm calling it a bunch of bologna. One Star. read more

Best prices out of all the shops in the area and great customer service. This is the only shop I'll go to.

This place is the best! I live in Gold Bar and only shop for herb here at Herbal Nation. Everyone is always so helpful, and patient.. very kind, dedicated staff here that always make me feel like helping me is as important to them as it is to me. I love love love Whitney.. definitely my all time favorite bud tender!! Her customer service is above and beyond, Her style is super cute, her hair and makeup is always perfect, and she is awesome 5stars for her and 5 stars for the whole crew! Oh yes, also since I check in when I go there.. I get discounts, which I love. And they also have killer deals all the time, unbelievable deals!! I won't shop at any other herb shop. Ever. read more

My husband and I have been going here for a couple years which in itself tells you what we think about Herbal Nation and its awesome staff but add this.... There are two other pot shops in the same block as Herbal Nation and we drive by them all the time. Neither is ever busy; Herbal Nation always is. Go to Herbal Nation. The rest of us do. read more

Today was a novel one; for me, (and the nation I hope some day) to be able to walk in and legally buy MJ in Washington. The other reviewers put into perspective very well what the business is up against. Taxed three ways from Sunday will make the price difficult to compete w the black market for quite a while. If I was an often smoker, I'd still look at a med-card because there was only one kind of pot available today, no need for smelling jars. Again -for the novelty -I bought one gram for $30+ dollars. Wow. That said, a nice bottle of wine for friends coming over for dinner somehow equates to a good time also, but until there is selection, consistency, and a fair market, it is really impossible to rate one of the few stores selling, anything. I wish Herb Nation good luck and perseverance. I had a nice talk w one of the owners who explained (probably for umpteenth time that day), how it is going, and honestly how difficult these nascent days will be. Hopefully 6months, to a year things will normalize to a level as buying one's choice tomatoes at the market. Unfortunate the State Liquor Board was handed the task to implement regulation of selling pot -the State has not been up to the task, nor -maybe- truly unenthusiastic to offer controlling sales of a competing product in the larger sense. 3 stars is not bad, for I will be back to see how this whole legal-pot thing progresses, and look forward to being impressed by HN by the spirit I saw today. Edit: another star given for the attention and further info imparted by some nice employees when I returned a few days later. They are enthusiastic and committed to help make history -tho given an already bumpy road that they aren't in control of. The hours are excellent !!! read more

This was my first time here and I was pleasantly surprised. The staff was very helpful and well informed. Yes, they only have one strain available at this time, Blue Dream but it's highly rated on Leafly so you won't be disappointed. Each of the baggies is labeled with information such as THC content, strain, when it was packaged etc. The prices are what would be expected at this early part of sales, about $60.00 for two grams which isn't too far off street price but as business continues prices will fall. It might be easy to miss from the road so make sure you keep an eye out for the two green vertical flags on the sidewalk on the left side if you're coming from the south or on the right side if you're coming from the north. read more

First of all, Herbal Nation sells the 150 puff/pull Sativa E-joints with pre-filled cannabis oil made from their Hybrid Blue Dream strain. The e-joint itself is a all black sleek version identical to any other e-cigarette out on the market. All you have to do is take a pull from it and it activates with a orange light on the end. It lets you take in a nice smooth pull that is delicious. It is so convenient, easy and clean to use that I will never want to grind up some dry buds and smoke it out of a pipe again. I haven't found this at any other shops. Herbal Nation is the second opened recreational shop in the area. They didn't have much selection outside of Indica or the Sativa version of maybe two different strains. However, quality is there and the prices are decent and that's what matters. I know you can buy weed way cheaper off the street however it's not regulated and I want pure natural green. I graduated from smoking buds and just do pure cannabis oil now because it's a better high. The staff is awesome as well. Check out the map on the wall to the right of the entrance when you walk in. Everyone who visits puts their name and HQ on that map and its fun to see people come from all over the country to be a customer of Herbal Nation. In the Maryland/DC area, you will find Ryan Celsius and LadyHomicide (that's me!). read more

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THE EDIBLES HERE!!!! I'm a VERY recreational user, in the last 6 months I've only smoked twice and even then I'm a 2-3 puffs and I'm done kind of person. 2-3 inhales and I'm a giggly, happy person. I was all excited for Herbal Nation to get their edibles in, I actually drove out to get some the day they announced on Facebook they had them in (10-4-14). The edibles are stupid expensive, about $60 a package with tax which allegedly contains 10mg of THC. I bought 4 packages thinking, "This will last awhile". So I go home with my cookies (2 packages), "buzzcotti", and caramels. I get home and eat a package of cookies and sit back and wait for the fun to start. And then nothing... an hour passes... STILL NOTHING. Not even a slight little buzz, absolutely no high. So I eat a second bag of treats (Buzzcotti) and wait. NOTHING! Absolutely F-ing NOTHING. These "edibles" taste like shit and will do NOTHING to get you high. Waste of money! The edibles smell and taste of pot but have absolutely zero THC in them. I'm pissed to have wasted over $200 on allegedly pot treats that taste like shit and are disgusting and don't do a damn thing to get you even slightly high. My friend ate the other two bags and had the same reaction... NOTHING. No high, no buzz, no fun... NOTHING. I'm an average sized female, I hardly ever smoke up... those treats should have had me wasted. They are BULLSHIT. Do not waste your money!!! Next time I'm just making my brownies. I looked up how to make my own treats and it seriously looks easy to infuse your own oil for baking. SHAME ON YOU, HERBAL NATION! You should know what you are selling and if it's good or not! read more

I love this place. Great prices and the most friendliest atmosphere. I'm literally in here every day of the week!

Great product. The staff was extremely informative and helpful. Prices are a little high *pun intended*! But for real, prices are way too expensive. Alternatives are much cheaper and the goal is to end those alternatives. read more

Me and my friend love herbal nation! We mostly buy edibles and pre-rolls there, we're so happy that it stays open so late, the people that work there are so nice and not condescending what's so ever, you never get that rude vibe you get from other dispensaries. You tell them exactly what you're looking for and they give you so many options, thank you guys so much read more

A lot of reviewers here seem to think Herbal Nation's prices are out of line. But the margins are very thin after taxes. I'm not a shill, I just don't see the point of bashing this shop when their prices are completely in line with other recreational shops. read more

Low end product (I'm sure they buy cheap), priced high, uneducated budtenders!!!! They definitely cater to the younger lower budget garbage weed crowd - biggest bag for cheap. The only reason they get one star is that they are open late otherwise drive up the road a bit to ANY other place and receive better service and product. I would definitely not recommend anyone new to cannabis to this place for sure! read more

Used to be a really nice place with really enthusiastic bud tenders but like the other guy said these days they will basically just take some random stuff off of the shelf and tell you its fire. I think they had to do this because the lines were getting held up by people having long conversations with budtenders but it feels too much like they just want you out the door now. A greener today right across the street has way better service but they do differ in their stock somewhat. read more

Dont bother calling because you're taking up their time. I've called twice and both times the guy, who I couldn't get a name, said he had to go and just wanted me to cone in. I don't wanna go in for something u don't have that's why im calling and I have questions but this guy doesn't wanna answer them may be they are busy but there should be more staff there. read more

I get that you get to buy weed which is really cool and all that. The employees seem friendly enough. However this place was all around disappointing. I was real excited to legally buy some weed and then they charge you over $80 for 2 grams. 2 grams!!! I'd way rather deal with these dudes in a well lit public location but looks like it's back to the street corner for me. I couldn't even get a receipt to keep as a keepsake. Just all around genuinely bummed and I won't be returning. read more

The launch of retail recreational marijuana stores in Washington State has been slow, as the regulatory infrastructure lumbers toward full deployment. Seattle has only one store, and it has suffered from lack of product to sell. Herbal Nation is the second store in the area to open (Bothell), and that for only a one-day soft-opening in advance of the planned opening of the store on August 18. The store was not ready for prime time, but the proprietors, Laura and Joe, definitely were. My friend and I showed up 90 minutes before the scheduled opening, concerned about the possibility of a crowd. Laura came out to greet us and we chatted amiably, and she offered to open early for us. Herbal Nation has a great many items of paraphernalia, and of course the main thing -- product! The proprietors are conscious of the difficulties of availability, and are working hard to keep margins low on their merchandise and satisfy the demand for legal weed. An eager public must keep in mind that the supply chain, under the control of the State Liquor Control Board, is quite fragile at the moment (August of 2014). Patience will be rewarded as the kinks are smoothed out. In the meantime, the folks at Herbal Nation are off on the right foot, with a good attitude aimed at building a satisfied customer base. Their first two customers left satisfied! Take cash... Remember, retail marijuana is still a cash-only business. [The category of this business should be retail recreational marijuana, but Yelp hasn't caught on.. Cannabis Clinic is the closest thing they had.] read more

I'd choose Herbal Nation every time over any other dispensary. The deals & prices are completely unmatched, & the staff is amazing. & Cameron's the best budtender! 10/10 if there were more than just 5 stars. read more

This place is overpriced and the ppl that work here aren't super knowledgeable and just try to hurry you up to get to the next customer, go to Green City!! read more

Forgot to get change, went back and they refused to give me change even after "reviewing security footage" that somehow only took less than two minutes to check in the back where nobody can see. Plenty of better stores in the area. very dishonest. read more

REALLY great customer service! I had an issue with an ejoint I bought. Brought it back and was given a replacement with no hassle. The owner was very helpful and professional. Product is great if a little expensive [taxes, not their choice]. I will be going back. read more

It's a testament to how much I like this place that I go to it even though it is out of the way from everything else in my life. Great prices, great selection and even better staff. read more

I WAS a great customer, in about 1-2 times a day. All of the employees knew me very well. One night I arrived without my ID. After seeing the staff let many "regular" customer in before without ID I thought that I would be fine. When greeted at the door the staff all agreed that they recognized me however looked at each other and at their discretion decided not to sell to me. When I arrived back with my ID the woman at the door made a joke about it and thought it was funny. Stating "Oh hey its you hahahaha" Honestly unprofessional BAD service, when I say I am in there 1-2 times a day I am not exaggerating. I looked beyond the long lines, and shitty parking situation. Unfortunately for them there are many other shops in town for me to spend my money at. I will be telling all of my friends about my story and we will taking all of our business somewhere else. read more

Fake edibles!! As others have said the edibles are not potent...as in they do NOTHING. That's the whole reason I came here, I can get weed anywhere but edibles are hard to find and a pain in the ass to make. Enter Herbal Nation. They said they cost ~35$, then there was tax (38), then they said they had to charge $3 for debit cards (41) and then I see on my bank account a charge for $43 total PLUS $2 from Chase for a non-atm charge (which I've never even seen before). So $45 dollars for a freaking tease. I don't know if they just got a bunch of bad batches, but I felt nothing and I smoke like once a week at most. They need to get their act together and stop taking advantage of people. read more

Too pricey, and still not sure if these guys are doing things right. Will report more later.

Over priced, uneducated and ignorant staff. They constantly say they have product they don't have then try to sell you something of lesser quality for more money and make you feel stupid for asking for something out of stock. Many other options for cannabis around. Don't waste your time because of convenience. read more

My friend went here and brought a $20 gram and an $8 gram.. The counter girl bagged the products up but when my friend got home she only had one product in the bag (the $20 gram) the $8 gram was missing. Moral to this story.. Make sure when they bag your products, make sure they put *ALL* of them in there read more

This place had really Low prices, helpful staff, huge variety of products for a single establishment. Good discount days and it was easy to find. They know the products and will help you when you have questions it was awesome. read more

Staff seemed nice enough. No selection. Ridiculous prices! 30 bucks for a gram of Blue Dream! Walked right out without buying anything. Retail marijuana in Washington is a joke and will ultimately fail if they can't compete with the black market.. Save your money and buy it from the teenager down the street. read more

Highway robbery. Only one variety. The product was decent quality but at 3-4 times the price that I found at Sea Change near Port Townsend. Do not patronize a business that gouges so much. Sleazy! read more

prices are simply too high. $840 an once is simply theft, even the worse deal on the street, is 3 times cheaper. And please don't be fooled by the "quality" story, comparing like for like Herbal Nation is charging huge money for reasonable quality weed. The reason they have weed to sell is that the prices are so insanely high anyone who knows anyone is choosing to "Just say No" to ultra high price gouging. Just remember Herbal Nation, when the price gouging is broken and the market normalizes smokers will not forget which stores charged $840 an oz, and which one did not. oh, and the reason the staff are happy is they cant believe how much money they are making by selling weed for $30 a gram... pure freshly mined gold is about $40 gram....... so if you want to buy a little smoke for close to the price of real gold, then go ahead. Me I would rather buy in a store where don't just rip me off and blame the supply chain. read more

I have been coming here for ages, Great prices. Open almost all the time. Has great customer service and 20% off oil on mondays! I recommend this place to everyone. read more

Too expensive.................. Even the pipes and lighters are marked up incredibly. Don't waste your time or money. Unless you enjoy being RIPPED OFF. read more

I have nothing but a great experience here. Never waited long, staff is great, products that I've tried are good too. I see 1st time buyers, getting the information they need for their own care. I have recommended this business, and I will here also. Sharon - Denver read more

My wife and I have been coming here since their very first day, and will be coming here forever!! They have an amazing selection of concentrates, edibles and of course flower. I personally partake the dabs, and have driven all across the state buying oil. Herbal Nation has selection and prices that let's me stay home and enjoy myself ,rather than driving to the ghetto just to save a buck. read more

I've been coming here for about 3 months and have had only the best experience. The staff is super helpful and was very patient with me in the learning process of trying to figure out what works for me, thanks guys I've read several posts mentioning "high prices" and I have to say that's BS, their prices are in line with other shops I've stopped at. Everything that I've bought here, edibles, eighths, oil has been great quality I've been recommending this store to my friends. read more

I called and asked if they had Shatter. I was told yes and in 1/2 and whole grams. $20 for a half and $40 for a whole gram. I was charged $53 for a gram. When I purchased it, I started to open it in the store and was told I couldn't do that, illegal to do so. In my car I opened it and found a piece of folded parchment paper with this beige colored butter like substance, leaking through the paper. I folded it back up and went back inside to ask what was going on. I said "Shatter is clear and hard, this isn't shatter, what is it ? His response was "You'll be surprised by this". I am 65 and have been using herbs for medicinal reasons, for decades. I know this, there are three kinds of liars. #1 is a straight up in your face, lie. #2 is little white lies and #3 is everybody's favorite.... the lie of omission. You should say something and you don't. I don't know where to place these people, but I will tell you this, I'm never going back for 2 reasons. I was lied to and stolen from. Today is Dec 14 1:46pm Today is November 22, 2016 and it's almost a year since my above rant.. I have come back here because I owe these people an apology. The clerk heard me when I told him I needed the most potent product he had, to help with my pain issues. That's why he grabbed the container of wax, not shatter. He knew from experience that this particular product was the most profound substance, in the store right then.. He was right, I was surprised by its potency and it helped me immeasurably. I have since become a devoted client and realized I needed to eat a little crow, and get honest about this on YELP. Their store is always clean and the staff isn't stoned out of their gourds, when working. They are polite and helpful. Their variety of products is amazing. all of the staff I've met are genuinely nice people. Id like to work there but my body would reveal my limits quickly. Thistle Dew read more
