Uncle Ike's Dispensary Seattle Olive Way
About Uncle Ike's Dispensary Seattle Olive Way
On Capitol Hill at 1411 E Olive Way, this Uncle Ike's location has a 4.3 rating across 429 reviews. The number is decent but lower than other Ike's spots in the city, mostly because feedback is bimodal. Many reviewers praise the price-match policy and bud-tender Jack specifically. Several customers also complain about one employee named Josh, with multiple reviews calling out rude or aggressive interactions. That's a consistency issue the owners may want to address. The shop carries Lifted on regular rotation, which Capitol Hill regulars mention as a draw. Pricing is described as competitive against other Capitol Hill dispensaries. Open every day from 8 AM to 11:45 PM, the near-midnight closing time fits the neighborhood's late-night energy. For Capitol Hill residents wanting a Seattle dispensary with brand recognition, price matching, and long hours, Uncle Ike's Olive Way works. Just know going in that not every staff interaction lands the same way.

Customer Reviews
I can’t recommend this place enough. Easily one of my favorite dispensaries in Seattle. I will say I have had continuous problems with their employee Josh. Today he couldn’t have spoken to me more rudely, he did a terrible job bringing me what I was looking for and was downright aggressive. He is the only employee that has ever acted this way. I refused to work with him and the next employee immediately did an amazing job helping me and answering all my questions. Why Josh feels it’s ok to treat a customer this way I truly don’t know. This shop could go from an A to an A+ without this kind of attitude.
This review is going strictly towards the one gentleman named JOSH, who is tall, thin, white, tattoos, who was very rude. I’ve never had any problems with any of the staff in that building besides him. He is very unprofessional. I enjoy coming there because I enjoy the people who work there. I’m a loyal customer and always shopping at this establishment. So let me start off how it happened. I went in and was asking for some pre-rolls and JOSH walked over to the section. He asked me what type and I said I like all of them could you start with reading off to me the ones in that section, what are in stock. His first reaction is to tell me that he isn’t going to read all the ones that he has and proceeds to tell me that I can order off the kiosk(i’m sorry I thought that was your job )however, in the kiosk, they seem to not have all the pre-rolls updated so I said nobody has ever had an issue with reading off the list of names that you have (and they weren’t that busy.) so he could’ve read them off to me. But he insisted on not reading down the list of what was in stock. I felt uncomfortable so I had stopped asking for the pre-rolls. so he walked back to the register and I confronted him and said I didn’t like how rude you were and the attitude you gave me about doing your job. So that’s when he got even more of an attitude and said I’m gonna have somebody else check you out (storming off and being very childish ) which I’m glad he did because I was not giving him a tip. He was rude and it seemed like his coworker that was next to him knew this happens a lot. because he told me every time I come in to just avoid that guy and come straight to him or somebody else that I’m familiar with. So then when I went to work, I was complaining about the situation, come to realize, I had several people tell me that they’ve also had issues with him. Some saying that he’s rude and some saying that he’s very racist. He personally will avoid people of color as well. (also I heard he got somebody fired from his job and guess what they were of color, shocker) I don’t think he’s right for that job and I think as a whole the dispensary should think about replacing him with somebody else. Every other single staff member in there is wonderful. And I will gladly change my review as soon as I know that he is gone. It’s a shame honestly how can you work in a place like that, and be as rude as you are and have that much attitude and to be racist come on now it’s 2026 and you’re a bud tender don’t be rude and nasty and have a attitude and maybe change your outlook on life. That’s a very sad man right there. I hope things get better in his life so he doesn’t have to be like that. This will not stop me from coming in however I feel people should know what they’re walking into and to avoid this guy with all cost if you want to have a pleasant visit.
Love that you this location has Lifted on regular rotation. Being one of closest dispensaries to me the the price match policy is great and sometimes saves me on my trip time. Good selection and great service. Most of the bud tenders are pretty cool and our favorite is Jack. A super friendly guy in a non cringy way. Offers great service with positive energy that makes you want to come back.
All I can say is wow, this place is awesome, customer service amazing and prices were great!! Definitely will be back
the prices here are so awesome! The employees are awesome as well. They are very helpful and patient. I always ask questions and take their recommendations. The other day I went in and spent some time chatting with one of the budtenders about what I wanted to buy, and I felt like I was taking too long but he was very patient and kind with me. I’m still shocked at how good the product is here, along with the prices. :)
