The clear dedication to maintaining an exceptionally clean environment along with offering the highest quality selection available is immediately apparent.Shortly after engaging with staff, it's also clear that this organization takes their training very seriously. The knowledgable breakdown of what products could work best with a given request was explained in a way that obviously lends to the care of the consumer being top priority and not making a sale.The welcoming nature of this facility and blatant indication that there's no short cuts taken will keep you coming back.

I had a few questions about getting a reusable pen and the clerk was very helpful with picking one. Then when we looked at cartridges they made a great recommendation after I provided a couple of notes what I was looking for. A simple and easy transaction that will likely make me want to go back. Can’t remember the name of the tender that helped me out but they were easy-going and knowledgeable.

Had a great customer experience at Lux Lake City! Prices and deals are pretty good and a lot of diversity in the shop. The budtender Avram was particularly helpful with getting me sorted.

LUX in Belltown Seattle is the best place to have the full Cannabis experience from the wicked friendly greetings I am met with as soon as I enter the shop, immediate attention to my needs getting what I ordered without me saying anything while validating my executive and personal life choices all why telling my look slays! I work hard everyday hitting the ground running, so when I need to get something to keep me focused I always know all my needs will be met. They are all a fantastic group of people I am proud to call my friends. Don't get it twisted, th

“A hybrid of fun and function, (Lux) is a must-have in your dispensary arsenal. Those new to the game can trust the knowledge and experience of the staff to pair you with your next ‘favorite’. Those that know what they want will enjoy discussing and exploring new options to optimize and extend that ‘loving feeling’. Absolutely love this place!”

“I went into this location over the weekend and I had a great experience. The Budtenders were extremely helpful and friendly and had good knowledge about the products that they house on their shelves. I would recommend a visit to this little shop in Ballard and they are also opening a second location in Lake City soon.”

“We accidentally stumbled upon this cannabis shop and totally forgot that In Seattle it’s legalized now. So we decided to stop by and grab some edibles. They don’t have candy like edibles due to kids can mistaken it for actual candy… Like gummy bears and suckers. So we settled the next best thing, candy but not in the fun candy look a like appearance. We got the peach hard candy and it definitely works. It’s 10mg per candy, we took half and it works. We saw many people came and go here… One thing is they only accept cash, which I think is the norm if it’s legal? Not sure, it’s not yet legal in California. But a great clean non shady place! I wish it were legal in CA!!”
Lisa W. (Yelp)

When legal weed became a thing in Washington, there were only a handful of shops that catered to the newly legalized business, and of course they were consistently slammed while smoothing over the operating kinks. As the thought of legal weed has settled in as part of the norm, more recreational shops have opened and prices have evened out in response demand. (Lux) is one of the shops that’s opened up in the past few months:located a half(ish) block north from Shelter in Ballard, the shops layout could be pulled from a high end Ikea catalogue. The space is quite minimalist, and I’ll admit I really admired the wood shelving behind the counter stores most of their stock (that I could at least see); the frosted windows bring in enough natural light but still allowing a decent amount of privacy for those inside shopping. There is a small strip directly in front in which to park, but getting in can get a little tight if the first couple spots are filled. But- it’s still a nice touch, especially in Ballard.

I’ll be honest and admit most of the names individual marijuana strains have make zero sense to me, so when I asked the gal behind the counter for a couple of pre rolled joints, she picked out a couple for me. The gal who picked out my joints and rang me up was very nice, and didn’t give me any grief for not knowing what to pick. I also liked that I was immediately greeted when I walked in, but allowed to use the ATM before being asked what I wanted.
Alice C. (Yelp)

Excellent recommendations from the knowledgable staff who served me, including taste and effects of different and had some from different price ranges. Basic Spartan modern bud bar.
gunrevive (Leafly)

Very clean store that is in own building which is nice. The parking it a little tricky but I went early in the day and it was no issue. Would absolutely go here again. The budtenders were very friendly and informative. The products were great quality as well.
PositiveSmash (Leafly)

Best rec shop I have ever been to! Store looks super classy and clean, staff is really friendly and very knowledgable. Amazing selection of flowers, edibles, concentrates, glass and more! Awesome prices for high quality products with an eloquently detailed menu. Easily accessible from Lake City Way, with plenty of room to park. Cannot find another shop that even comes close!
LucyGustav (Leafly)

Amazing aesthetic. More than just a cannabis shop, selection is unrivaled. Prices are extremely reasonable, taxes included on their AMAZING and easy to read menu. The Gold Leaf selection here is incredible.
mjjones91 (Leafly)

Nice decent size parking lot. Informative staff and a LARGE selection to browse through. Fair prices and awesome looking (haven’t tried yet) top shelf buds! I would highly (pun intended) recommend giving (Lux) a try!
James (Yelp)

This place is awesome! Brand new inside, and stocked full with goodies! Everything from pre-rolls, edibles, flowers, beverages and oils. The selections are endless and the staff is knowledgeable and spectacularly helpful. The can help you with anything you are looking for, or make recommendations if you need. The extended menu goes on and on, but the staff at (Lux) will help you navigate.
