About Forbins Reserve + ForbinsFinest Cultivation

Combining a retail dispensary with an in-house cultivation operation, this Barre shop at 21 Metro Way Unit 8 has built a loyal following over its first couple of years. The 4.6-star rating across 118 reviews leans heavily on staff praise, with reviewers calling the team knowledgeable, chill, and quick to help. Recent cart price reductions get mentioned often as a reason regulars keep coming back. Because the team grows what they sell, conversations at the counter can get into specific lineage and grow conditions in a way that's tougher at shops sourcing everything from outside vendors. Hours run 10 AM to 8 PM Monday through Saturday and 10 AM to 6 PM on Sunday, with the location set just off the main commercial strip serving central Vermont. For Barre-area customers who want a dispensary where the people behind the counter know the people behind the plants, Forbins fits that role.

Jon Lucey ★★★★★ 9 months ago

I’ve been coming to Forbin’s for over a year and a half now, and it’s hands-down one of the best dispensaries around. The staff is always on point—cool, friendly, and super helpful every time I stop by. They really make the experience easy and enjoyable. A few weeks ago, I even had the chance to meet the owner and her awesome dogs—such a great vibe and genuinely good people running the place. It’s clear they care about the community and the quality of what they offer. Great people, great service, great products. I’ll keep coming back!

They were great there. I have a cannabis card from out if state and have been to many dispensaries, and love how this place uses the space effectively, and they have everything you need. Thanks for the kindness

Zack Hintz ★★★★★ 2 years ago

Was really pleased with their selection of flower. All seemed top notch, smelled great and made it hard to choose from. Also had some art from Chris from Hickory Glass on display that I had to hold myself back from purchasing. Ended up leaving with 1/2 oz that came to $160 total, which wasn't awful price for legal buds. I was happy with each jar, and 3/4 jars already had bevida humidity control packets in them, which was awesome. Because in other states, often times legal flowers are so incredibly dry, which was absolutely not the case here. The only down side, was I was hoping to get some live rosin, but the selection was very slim, and quality absolutely did not match the price. $70 for dark brown lipidy wax ... yikes. Not really their fault, but would recommend they purchase rosin from other vendors. Maine is light years ahead when it comes to their rosin and solventless concentrates. Again that is not the Reserve's fault though. Their flower selection was killer and I was very happy with what I left with!
