Had a mishap with something I purchased on the way back home. Thankfully I reached out to Christi and was able to help me out big time! She’s the reason you shop local. She answered my email almost instantly and I was back in the next day to shop again. Amazingly curated shop with vintage clothes that are priced fair unlike other vintage shops. You’re messing up if you aren’t shopping here.

Love stopping in just to be speak with the shop owner! Chirsty's spirit is amazing. The shop has the most unique smoking pipes and pieces in Lancaster City - hands down. I always find a great vintage wear to go home with too. Great attention for detail.

Ellister’s is such a lovely space to shop and spend time. The incredible selection of herbs, vintage, and gift items makes them a consistent stop for me. My fave spot on Queen St :)

Easily the best holistic store in our area, if not PA! The owner is so genuinely sweet and generous to every patron who enters- a fresh breath of air from some of the mentality of other “newer” Lancaster stores. This shop has the vibe of old-school Lanc, while selling the best new-school medicine you can get! The CBG and CBD are of the highest quality, from a local women-owned business, and all of the medicinal tinctures offer a wide array of options for anyone in need. They’re also very honest- I had to make a return a while back and the whole process was fair and I felt really taken care of, so I’ve returned as much as possible.I’ve had severe chronic illness (Bartonella/Babesia) for over a decade. The herbs and tinctures from this shop do more for my health than hospital stays, doctors, or opiates ever did!! I swear by this shop’s CBG for my pain, and the foot oil I got a few months ago is still just as luscious and relaxing to use on my sore joints as it was the day I bought it. I stopped by the shop to double check prices the other day and updated the owner on how I’ve been- and she graciously packed me a goodie bag as good luck and gave me a huge hug! I don’t think I’ve ever had a shopkeep do that before? That kind of kindness and care goes beyond the paycheck and into the realm of genuine empathy. That’s a rare gem in this society.I can’t wait to feel well enough to stop in more often, and hopefully catch one of the many wonderful classes and events held at the location. Someday I’ll do yoga!!If you’re looking for a green business that genuinely cares- look no farther! 10/10 recommend Ellister’s Elixirs!

This was the only shop open on a Sunday on Queen St. I loved looking at all of the vintage clothing and accessories especially. The owner was friendly and the store is really cute.

Can’t say enough great things about Ellister’s and the owner Christi. She has provided a space for people to gather over art, music, yoga, like mindedness, and mindfulness.Ellister’s is always stocked with quality products with quality ingredients and the owner/employees take the time to explain literally anything and everything you would/should need to know about what you’re buying. 5 stars and 2 thumbs up,They truly deliver that small town feel that makes you want to keep coming back

What a nice shop! I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I was intrigued while walking by on First Friday. There are a variety of oils, tinctures, etc for various ailments or concerns. I love that!!!! They also have crystals and other things to help you.

I had no idea what I needed or where to start, but thankfully Christi was incredibly helpful! She really listened to me and gave thoughtful, tiered recommendations; and not just products, but lifestyle guidance as well (all of which have helped immensely after only one week!). Also, the design and layout of the store is so calming - not chaotic or overwhelming like most stores. I am officially in love with this shop and will be visiting again and again! I am feeling more energetic, rested, and excited about life than I have since pre-covid. Thank you, Christi!

friendly & helpful staff, but i personally feel there is a lot of appropriation of Indian culture as well as Ayurveda.

Stopped by upon the recommendation of a dear friend and was so delightfully entranced by the energy of the space and the products. Had a long Lovely chat with Christi, the owner, about everything from healing to restorative yoga. On a gloomy rainy day, the experience was sunshine ? and Light ✨. What a wonder-full addition to North Queen Street!??

Love this shop!! I shop with Ellister’s mainly for women’s health and I’ve been so happy. Plus she works with other local businesses so you know what you are eating, smoking, or applying is from local farmers and distributors. If you are curious about what Ayurvedic medicine can do for you, you need to go see Christie!
