About Dire Need Cannabis

On Wisconsin Avenue in Whitefish, this small dispensary has a mixed review profile, sitting at 3.4 across 16 ratings. Open seven days a week from 9 AM to 8 PM most days, with Sunday closing earlier at 6 PM. The shop is compact, and reviewers describe the space as cramped. Visitor experience varies sharply between reviews. Some pre-roll buyers report straightforward visits with reasonable prices, particularly on Purple Haze two-packs that came up by name. Others raise concerns about customer interactions and how the owner responds to negative feedback online. One review flags issues with the on-site ATM, so bringing cash from elsewhere is a safer plan. Worth approaching with realistic expectations: if you want a quick pre-roll grab in central Whitefish, the shop functions for that purpose, but the broader service consistency is uneven enough that locals often weigh nearby options first. Confirm any deals at the counter rather than relying on prior visits or online promotions.

Customer Reviews

Tom Wood

Don't use the ATM machine here. It's bugged.

Cody

This little dispo has my heart, they may not grow their own but they have an excellent selection from dabs to drinks and always have a good stash in a pinch

Milo Nieto

Visiting Whitefish and walked into Dire Need for some pre-rolls (2 pack Purple Haze). Friendly service and good prices and the Haze did the trick.

Lance

The 5 star review below by Ed D is actually the owner. You can tell how rude and unprofessional he is by how he bashes his customers in his own review. He also lashes out when responding to reviews by people who have had negative expierences at his buisness. If you don't like something in this cramped shop, he'll call you a hater. Bunk products and shady business practices, locals know to avoid dire need and Ed D.

Worst experience I’ve had in a dispensary. Product is the worst quality, all outsourced and trash. Unprofessional also owner and his employees are leaving positive reviews for themselves so they can have a better rating!
