Herbal Nation Bothell

I live up the street and I go here all the time. Everyone here is super chill. And prices are pretty reasonable… I mean people are complaining about how it’s too expensive. Then quit looking at the top shelf stuff and look at what’s more affordable for you. They have multiple different strains that vary in prices. You get what you pay for! Thanks herbal nation!

Well, I didn’t actually go in here myself but my friend brought me some meds from here. And all I can say is THANK YOU.
I told my friend i have been looking for high CBD strains and the 2 he brought me are absolutely beautiful and do the trick. He said the people here were very friendly and helpful when he told them what he was looking for.
Next time I’m up north I will definitely come check you guys out myself and then I’ll be able to give an honest 5 star.
Until then, thank you!

Friendly staff. Has vape carts, so they get 5 stars from me!

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

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

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.

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

Way too expensive. They actually remove one juju joint out of the two pack to rip you off even more. On top of that they want a tip and charge you an ATM fee to use a debit card.
Remember this owner because I’m sure they will be opening a new place with a new name once this place goes out of business.

Price gougers! Be very wary and check their prices before driving there. There are actually ethical businesses in this industry and Herbal Nation is not one of them, it has nothing to do with State tax or supply and demand, the owner chooses to set his prices high. Take the time and drive north, much better pricing and ethical business practices.

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.

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.

You will be playing a street game called 3 card Monte when trying to buy bud at this store. The gal will pull a dubetube filled with swag out of her butt and tell you its the bomb strain. But, why is the strain not listed on the package??? Cause the real bud was swapped out for the swag. The state needs to fine them, and the owner needs to allow the consumer to pick the package they buy. Its all about control… it will always be. cant trust anyone in WA. The state needs to hire and supervise the bud tenders. Good quality bud smells when it’s burning… the smoke should stink up the room.

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!

The prices here are not reasonable. Almost $ 40 for a gram isn’t acceptable. The product is good-​but-​not-​great quality, and this is simply price gouging. I won’t be back. Shameful.

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!).

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 !!!
