Northern Lights NY Dispensary

Everytime I drive into albany for food, I follow it with a trip to this spot for a post dinner pre roll, or a cart to puff on. Service is always super great. Prices are very competitive. This is my favorite in the 518.

Went in on whim since i was down in Albany. Loved the store and the staff was awesome. Anytime I'm down there ill go in now, same with their closer to home Whitehall NY spot.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 100/10 I always have a GREAT experience when ordering deliveries from this dispensary. It’s usually the same gentleman, Dajon, and he is always so friendly and helpful. His patience and kindness really mean a lot — I truly appreciate it every time.

If you order delivery - beware - after using this dispensary for months and having no issues (I usually always had one of the same 2 delivery drivers and they were awesome) however, the very last time I placed an order here before moving, it was delivered by a gentleman I believe to be a manager? I ordered two separate bags of flower, But apparently they accidentally sent me a vape instead of the second smaller bag of flower. I didn’t even realize it because this was a gift I was leaving for the other residents who helped me move out. A few days later, I get a charge on my card for double the amount I was expecting… I called to inquire about this and a very nice woman working there told me that someone had gone in and adjusted my order and charged me for a vape that I did not order, that presumably was put there by accident, that no one called or emailed me to see if I would return, or that I was even aware I was delivered?? (Predatory much?) Come to find out the person responsible is a manager… The woman I talked to was committed to making things right and I don’t blame her at all!! But in the end, they didn’t even give me a full refund for the extra charge?? (It would’ve been $62 they cash app’d me $50….) Needless to say, I wouldn’t recommend ordering delivery, And if you come in store, Ask specifically NOT to talk to a manager. This was a huge bummer and reflects really poorly on all of the other employees there that are really lovely, helpful people!

I’ve been going to Verilife in Latham for over 6 years now. Last night, I broke my small glass pipe, and since Northern Lights is close enough to me, I could throw a rock at it…. I decided to use this as an opportunity to check out my local dispensary. I’ve been meaning to do so, since it opened. It’s a large place. They seem to be have a very large amount of offerings. But, I also found it confusing Inside. I’m accustomed to the very well organized style of verilife. Northern Lights is a lot more laid back, but with that …. I wasn’t sure where to go or who to talk to. Is there a line? Who’s first? A nice gentleman did answer my questions and pointed me to the glass pipes. I didn’t buy one. Here’s why: I pointed to one of the smaller ones. It’s the exact ones that I buy from verilife for about $7. Here, at Northern Lights, that same exact pipe was $15. That’s more than double. Out of convenience, I would have paid $10. But for $15, I’ll spend the $1 in gas. I’ll just go to my regular shop tomorrow morning. I can wait. Won’t be back. Which is sad because they are so close to me.
