Customer Reviews
Stage One might actually be the nicest dispensary I have ever visited. It was very clean, but not *hospital* sterile like some are. It was a nice, relaxed atmosphere and the selection of goods was spectacular! There was more variety of product types and quantities than I have seen. And the staff were completely awesome. But especially Chantel!
After going to multiple shops in my area, I have found that Stage 1 is the only place that I really like going anymore. The staff is knowledgeable and direct you to just what you're looking for. The staff is excellent. I will note that at one point they did have an employee there that was loud and obnoxious, and even yelled at some of the employees on the floor while I was shopping. She's no longer there which makes my shopping experience there even better. The weed selection is really good. They have a really nice glass selection. The staff can direct you to exactly what you're looking for, and unlike other shops,if they don't know, they will find someone who does. Good customer service goes a long way. My last budtender was Swarley???? She helped figure out exactly what I was looking for and..... Remembered me by name. I was pleasantly surprised. I suggest this dispensary to anyone looking for a good place to buy weed or weed products.
I have ordered from many dispensaries and I do have to say stage one is so personable, they are so easy to order from the site is easily navigated and organized. I also would like to add that the products are decently priced they run a lot of promotions and deals which you don’t see very often either. Now my five star is going to go more towards the delivery, stage one makes delivery so easy. The drivers always check in, I have had Chantel A few times and she always greets with a smile she has a great attitude and She is so efficient with her deliveries. 10/10 🤘🏻
Stage One has some of the friendliest staff in the area. Ryan and company have always helped out when I had any questions. They have a large selection and the online ordering makes everything ten times easier. I will always be a customer and thank you guys for serving the Capital Region.
Hands down my favorite dispensary near Albany. I’ve lived here my whole life and this spot over in Rensselaer is the perfect mix of quality and chill. Great prices, solid selection, and the people are always friendly and actually know their stuff. Super convenient location—five minutes across the river and I’m stocked up. The vibe’s relaxed, the bud’s top shelf, and it always feels like I’m getting good value.
