Darlene was absolutely so sweet and personable! Her energy is infectious, thank you for being such a great part of your team Darlene.
One of my top three dispos for a lot of reasons. Prices are consistently on the lower side, and the quality is always there. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient, which makes everything easy. They’re also always running some kind of nice special :) Good bud, great carts for the price , and amazing edibles.
Amazing experience with the manager Allie! Such a caring staff, and great products! This was only my second time coming in, and Allie made sure to explain the rewards points system, and made sure I was up to date on how everything works!
I had a notably positive experience at this dispensary and feel it’s worth sharing my perspective. To begin with, the establishment demonstrates a commendable level of customer service, product variety, and professionalism. The staff appears well-informed, approachable, and genuinely eager to assist in finding suitable products—an aspect that is often lacking elsewhere. That said, I feel compelled to address some of the previous reviews I have encountered, which seem to be largely unfounded. Many of these accounts appear to be based on misinformation or personal bias rather than actual experience. It's worth noting that dispensaries are legally obligated to provide comprehensive details about their products, including ingredients, potency, and other relevant information. Such transparency is essential for consumers to make informed decisions—something I certainly appreciate. If you happen to experience severe adverse effects, such as coughing up blood after using their products, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional rather than relying solely on staff who, unsurprisingly, may not have all the answers. Instead of expecting staff to memorize every ingredient in every product—an unreasonable expectation—you might consider asking for that information directly. Perhaps then, some individuals would realize that not all ingredients are as benign as they might assume, rather than dismissing it as a personal attack or a mere inconvenience. In conclusion, I highly recommend this dispensary to anyone seeking quality products and reliable service. Don’t be swayed by the unfounded negative reviews; this place genuinely stands out in a positive way.
I came in during their flower sale and ordered six 8ths. On my order ticket and confirmation email, it shows one of the 8ths I received was incorrect. I didnt notice until I got home, but that was my fault for having blind faith in this dispensary. I've never had this issue here before, but when I called I was told to bring it in, and they could issue a full return. The gentleman on the phone asked if I could come back the same day, but due my distance from the store and the time of day, that wasnt feasible for me. He told me he would leave a note on my profile, and I could come in the next day. I am here now, after driving nearly 30 minutes, and the woman at the counter, who announced herself as the store manager, said the best she could do was offer me the strain I didnt get for another $5.....and there's the scam. Not only did I spend more time and gas coming back up here, but you want more money from me. Its not about the $5...I can prove their employee gave me something I didnt order, and having to spend more money to correct their mistake isnt right.... I wont be back.
