This is my happy place, not much different than being the child in the candy isle. What I've appreciated most is that I've been recommended the right strains for the high I'm looking for, in other words very knowledgeable. To top it off they're familiar with my face and they treat me personally. This is where you want to buy your weed during their happy hour...

Ponder is my favorite shop in town. The service is always fantastic, selection is great and they'll give you great suggestions whether you're on a top or bottom shelf budget.

Very friendly staff with reasonable prices. Much calmer and nice experience than the long line and rushed sense you get at Ike’s across the street. Also they do a 15% off during happy hour from 12-4:20 each day. I stocked up!

Great selection of products, great bud tenders but the security guard was unfriendly, made me feel like I was wasting his time, and mean mugged me the whole time I was there

Love this shop! The location is great, inside it's very brightly lit, friendly and welcoming. Everyone from the door person to the each bud tender makes you feel relaxed. I got great personal recommendations that resulted in me finding the best medicine I've been able to access since I've moved to Seattle.
This is my go-to shop now, and I highly recommend anyone to check out Ponder, I think you will be happy you did! No one seems aloof or tries to rush your selection, and the shop just feels really safe and cozy.
Thanks to everyone who works there for making it such a positive and uplifting experience, the shop is one of my new happy places :)

My absolute favorite shop. Tiffany in particular is a wonderful person on staff that really lsitened to what I was looking for and recommended 3 really great strains. She used her knowledge of recreational, medicinal, AND stone healing to guide me in my quest for Epilepsy and Anxiety relief. Highly recommended space as well. Bright, happy atmosphere.

How a business truly distinguishes itself isn't in just selling you what you want. It's how they handle potential customer service issues. I went to return a vape cartridge that wasn't drawing properly. I was treated like a VIP. Misha (sp?) went above and beyond to explain potential problems with cartridges along with possible fixes, this, before cheerfully exchanging the defective cartridge for a new one (which works perfectly). Ike's (just up the street) is okay, but you feel a bit "processed" there, whereas at Ponder, you feel especially welcomed and valued. Lots of times, you can buy a given product from many stores, so your decision comes down to which store you'd prefer to give your money. I now prefer to give it to Ponder.

Marcus was great especially for a first timer. Very comfortable place. It's not Disneyland of shops but it's what it should be - professional, safe, friendly

I like this place. It's a hidden gem and people don't know about it yet. Great vibe and really a good looking store. PS... Cortona coffee shop down the block is great. I pick up my thc honeystix (I put it in my coffee), my sativa pre-roll for me and a chocolate truffle for my girl. And then I get a coffee at Cortona. That's my Sunday. Ah life is good in Seattle. :-)

I have officially found my new favorite store. This place isn't in the best location but overall it's a nice little spot and they have great deals. Ponder has a nice, warm atmosphere and a very friendly staff. They are also dog friendly which is a huge plus.

Tiffany was super helpful! Very friendly environment for a first timer. No annoying crowds of people, security was present but not intimidating. Really appreciate their help and friendly attitude with a total newb like me.

The door dudes are always friendly. Some of the budtenders are awesome at giving personalized recommendations, and others are still learning, but everyone has a great attitude. Dig the neighborhood vibe -- it's very Central District; I usually have a short exchange with at least the door guy if not other customers. Bummed I didn't make it to their joint rolling workshop... You get decent quality for a good price, happy hour (12-4:20) and usually some cheap options if ya just don't wanna spend a lot. Since they opened, the selection has gotten better, staff is friendly and atmosphere is always improving. (Also, there is a ymca down the block and laundromat/liquor store/post office the next block over so you can really get a lot done in one spot and stop at the neighbor lady for a drink because you accomplished a lot today.)

It tucked away and little hidden, but cool

relaxed, friendly vibe with top notch products.

Like others have said, awesome little place. It's on the backside of Capitol Hill and the CD.
Totally top notch staff. Incredibly friendly, awesome selection. What is listed on the website kind of pales in comparison to walking into the shop. Just super friendly, like I can not state that enough. These guys blow Uncle Ike's out of the water for support and atmosphere. Totally will be here again!

Just opened about a month ago so they seem to have a fresher and better priced inventory than the place across the street. Staff is friendly and patient and I liked the non-rushed atmosphere. Pretty solid pricing with quality going for $10/g and less quality $7/g regardless of amount but would love to see some half or ounce deals!

I don't know how I waited this long to visit this shop, excellent and friendly service, great pricing and a great looking space. Ponder has found a new regular customer.

The staff at this store are knowledgeable and friendly. They always come correct with ON POINT recommendations, and have an impressive selection and variety of products. They have great Happy Hour deals, and I would say this is one of the best stores in the city.

Love it here! Everyone is super friendly and knowledgeable. It's much more relaxed and enjoyable than nearby shops.
