Ganja Goddess Seattle
6/16/2015
**Quick note for contextual purposes. I actually have been too ALL of the recreational shops in Seattle proper as of 6/3/15**
Ganja Goddess is undoubtedly, inarguably, hands down the best shop in and around Seattle. When you sat and thought about what recreational marijuana shops were going to be when legalization was first passed - THIS is the shop you envisioned.
Since Cannabis City first opened it's doors to right before Ganja Goddess first opened their own - everything has been slightly underwhelming. Prices were FAR to high, strain selection was "one or the other" (and in some cases there was no selection at all), and I found a lot of other shops' staffs to be relentlessly condescending towards customers they deemed to be "amateurs".
Ganja Goddess has put it all together for us. The first thing you notice is the earthy, rustic/vintage setting that makes you feel right at home. Next, you're greeted by a friendly, funny, and intensely knowledgeable staff willing and looking forward to answer any of your questions and make recommendations based on your own tastes and desires. Also, the selection you have to choose from is precisely what you wanted when you envisioned the candy store-esque scenario of what the new shops would be like. Finally, the prices are AT LONG LAST where they should be. Since the beginning, street prices have embarrassed the shops, causing many of the smokers I know to chug right along buying from the same guy they've been picking up from for years. Ganja Goddess offers you top tier strains at prices mimicking those street prices that kept you from checking out the stores. Support local businesses - who in turn legally employ others - and simultaneously pick up some fairly priced G13, AK47, Super Sour Silver Kush or whatever buds you please (it's a win-win).
There's little comparison to be had at all between Ganja Goddess and the "competition". I've since ceased my "Pot Shop Polygamy" and settled down with Ganja Goddess. Go there. Just do it. It's RIGHT OFF West Seattle Bridge on First in the Vertigo Building, and parking is never an issue. You won't be sorry...and if you're not satisfied with your product, just look me up. I'll be happy to take it off your hands.
Rock On!
