Always a great vibe.Cool and helpful staff without the hovering.
Very expensive merchandise and didnt have what I was looking for.
Me and my friends were able to find the perfect bowls for our pieces. The staff were extremely helpful, even in the face of an extremely rude and irate customer that was in the store while we were. We will all definitely be coming back, you gained 4 customers today.
Awesome shop full of friendly faces and Dank wares!
Knowledgeable staff, very friendly. Small but neat, clean and organized. Has all of the essentials you will need. They also support local artists which is great!
What a lovely experience! Broke my bong and was looking to get a new one and found the perfect one thanks to Brooke! Such a sweet and lovely employee! This was probably one of the finest smoke shops I’ve been to and super helpful. 💕
Very helpful and knowledgeable staff too
Hands down my favorite shop for all tobacco products. The ladies who work there are so nice, helpful and very knowledgeable. Inside is nice and clean and they have really great products with very fair pricing! I’ll definitely be back!
Wonderful service and large selection. Staff was able to direct me to exactly what I needed. Even when it got busy the staff made sure to check in with us. Will be coming back!
Best headship in the Capitol district. They have a wide assortment of products and nice and knowledgeable employees. I always go there when I need anything when it comes to smoking.
Terrible experience. Most things there were either way too cheap or way too expensive. After 20min I finally found a piece and I reluctantly had to buy it as I needed something to smoke out of for the night. The clerk there some younger guy was very rude. All around 1/10
Good glass, knowledgeable staff. While prices skew toward the weightier side a bargain can be found for the diligent browser (unless youre looking for a reasonably priced grinder in which case maybe check elsewhere first).
When I went in a few days ago it was probably the best selection of glass Id seen in a smoke shop. Staff is helpful and friendly, would absolutely recommend to anyone celebrating the new Legalities 😁
Very nice inside and friendly staff. Prices reasonable and I have gotten gifts from there for other people and they really like them. I also like their incents selection and need to go back for more supplies!
A little late in writing but I know the manager would appreciate it. Thank you staff and manager for an awesome experience. Puffco peak is very popular and I wanted a particular item they didnt have on stock. The manager ordered me one and took my information to call me. A week or two go by and Im wondering what happened. I go to the store and they asked if I was Craig. They apologized to me and my number was misplaced but they NEVER STOPPED holding the item for me. They could of sold but they didnt and I cant explain to them how thoughtful it was. Thank you for the wonderful moment ladies you have my service forever
Great spot, a fair reasonable priced place, and youre getting quality quality. The staff was extremely helpful in finding what I needed, and allowed me time to shop without hassling me. A fantastic selection of of bowls, water pipes, vaporizers and such.
Great place. Very nice and helpful staff. Even came out and helped my wife in a wheelchair up the hill and ramp into the store. Great atmosphere in the store too.
Staff was so friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I didnt feel rushed or pressured at all and their selection was the best Ive seen in the Albany area.
Count on them to have what Im looking for and always something extra I didnt know I would love!
The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Their products are always great and they have some of the best smelling incense I have bought.
The people are so open, nice, and helpful. I love going in there even if its just to browse. They are always willing to listen to your questions and help where they can.
You have to believe me.....Northern Lights is fantastic....it’s not the smokers choice that’s on every corner with the nice 18 year old....who has no idea what’s going on.....it’s hard enough for us 40 somethings to adapt....But it’s less painful here...Top 10 ratingOrion level of care and quality.....
Customer service was wonderful as always, the whole staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Products are affordably priced
Went in to get parts for my medical marijuana vape. All the staff was very helpful and knowledgeable about their products. The shop is clean, organized and inviting. I spent some time looking around and picked up a few extra, cool things.
The sales staff is so kind and patient! Helped me find exactly what I needed. I love this place, and I will keep returning.
Place is awesome. Great selection of products. Stopped in the other night for the first time. The woman working was extremely helpful. Two thumbs up.
Now this place is amazing! The people are great there and very knowledgeable. The best glass that I have seen in NY and thats saying allot because Im from Denver where the glass is Supreme! Awesome place and I highly recommend it!
So far my favorite head shop in the area. Good selection of non-essential accessories like incense and body oils but they also have a lot of cool stuff like cases for your pipes. They also have a great selection of handmade glass pipes and nice cases to store and transport them in. Prices are higher than what Ive seen on Etsy, but the nice part is that you can go and hold the pieces in your hand and see how they look in person. Plus of course you get the benefit of the knowledgeable staff.
What a fun store!! So many unique items, smells great, and super friendly staff!!! It was my first visit- but wont be my last!!!
This is the headiest store in the Cap Region! Brian is a fantastic manager, knowledgeable, friendly; and he keeps his prices fair. If you dig glass this is the only place u need to stop in Albany.
A great experience. The employee was super friendly and helpful.
Awesome selection on glass pipes and accessories.. I live in NYC and went to Saratoga horse races for the weekend and I made sure to stop here before heading home. The employees are very knowledge on manufacturers of the pipes and accessories and are very helpful.
Very knowledgeable and friendly people even checked upstairs to see if they had what I was looking for deffenitly going back
Needs an updated return policy. Bought a 32$ Juul there to find another place sold it cheaper. Legit just bought it, wasn’t open at all and they wouldn’t take it back. Annoying.
Great place. Always friendly staff and good prices. A large selection of stuff and lots of insense. Go wander around inside for fun. I go here all the time.
Cute shop! So many awesome things in there! Will be stoping by again!
Great staff and soooo many cool goodies in their shop!
Absolutely great, got me back in line after a couple mishaps. Tried 3 other places all closed. Northern Lights came in big after being 4 hours from home
Very cool place. Great incense selection. All sorts of neat stuff to look at. Make sure to have your ID with you, as they are very good about checking for 18+
I came in for CBD oil. They were friendly and listened to what I needed. I was given wonderful information and made an educated decision about a cbd product. They have a great selection and the experience was great!
Amazing atmosphere! Their manager is very accommodating and understanding and the whole staff goes above and beyond to help you!
The dude went out of his way to help me out Thanks guys!! The place stilling running smooth without Kendra at the helm. It pricey but it also quality name glass they sell and not so much chinese glass !!
Absolutely love this place. massive selection on pipes. and wonderful customer service they really know about what they sell! also happy to see they carry some vaping product!!!
This place is amazing, they have one of the biggest selections of pipes and vaporizers around. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. 1010 I have and will be visiting again.
I was on a hunt, went to 10 or 15 places. Then finally I saw the light! The JUUL light in the window of Northern Lights! The customer service was perfect and I finally got my JUUL Pods! Thanks guys!
New management is GREAT! Super friendly and memorable- they have upgraded the selection, moved the store around a bit, and provide incredible customer service.
Very helpful and friendly
Came in tonight from South Glenn Falls called the guy before I came in told me on the phone yes I can do a return on my vector torch so got there and guy calls manager I cant return this is have to send out after telling me on the phone they can switch it out . Manager gives me 10% off whats that gonna cover . Dont go here till they start doing returns again .
I love the staff and selection!
If you cant find a smoking accessory you are looking for, it hasnt been made! They have so much here you can spend some serious time browsing.
BUYERS BEWARE - My son purchased a Pax vaporizer at Northern Lights, Fuller Rd., Albany, NY for over $300 - less than a week ago today (04/27/16) and it is defective. They refused to take it back. The store manager “Brittany” said he would have to contact the manufactuer etc. We asked for a refund and were refused. I am aware of NYS law regarding defective items, despite their sign in the store that says no refunds. Brittany claimed that she telephoned the store owner “JOY” who said no refunds under any circumstances. I am contacting the NYS Attorney Genera;’s office now to register a complaint against this business and ask that their business practices be investigates. I am also complaining to the Better Business Bureau. BUYERS BEWARE of purchasing anything from this store, because if it doesn’t work, they don’t stand behind their products.
Great selection always friendly and helpful
Great local smoke shop!
Great selection, knowledgeable staff. Very friendly. Great atmosphere, and always very clean. I love this place.

This shop has some the best smoking assories I have seen in a very long time. Awsome glassware and all things needed for smoking. 420 everywhere!
I always go there, they have everything and anything that you want in the capital district bar none, positively and if by chance they dont they will try and get it for you, but I doubt they will have to.
I was there today for a new rig and purchased ibgot home and it leak water from the bottom. Cheap product and i know a rwfund would never happen. Will not be back.

2022-04-06My go to stop for smoke accessories, candles, inscents, and more. I love this place. Id much rather support a local smoke shop than buy online.Plus they have all the good brands for glass; Left Coast, MJ Arsenal, MyBudVase, GlassbyNobody.All these artists I found online & when I saw they had them in their shop I had to a double take. 5 stars.
