Love the atmosphere, old pharmacy kind of vibe. Warm welcome, personalized service and great discounts. Free vale parking, overall an amazing experience!!!

Review by Jamie Burns

This is a hard balance between 4 and 5 stars. The only reason for the 4 is pricing, but i would like to point out that if you become a member the prices balance out. besides the previously mentioned pricing issue, this place is great. I pass it everyday transiting for work. The quality and consistency of product is spot on. Staff is very knowledgeable and selection is off the hook. I may change his rating to 5 after i compare to another dispensary.

Review by Michele Chapman

Do yourself and your wallet a favor and buy from another dispensary! When I first started coming here I loved it! Friendly staff, clean facility, etc. But in reality, they charge WAY TOO MUCH!!! And there have been several occasions where I will wait close to 15 minutes in the checkout line with only two people ahead of me....ridiculous!!! At other dispensaries, I am easily paying $60-$80 for a HALF OUNCE and $110 for a FULL OUNCE! And I assure you it’s great quality and lasts me weeks! DO NOT OVERPAY! East county dispensaries charge wayyyyy less and their customer service/speedy checkouts are consistent. Again, I was getting my weed here for a few months and I like how clean their place is, but they are charging WAY. TOO. MUCH.

What is a Dispensary?

A dispensary is a store that sells special items or dispenses the specialized items. Cannabis or marijuana dispensariers started in the US some time in the early 1990’s when Dennis Peron opend the San Francisro Cannbis Buyers Club. Back then the cannabis dispensary faced a ton of hardships, but Dennis, his team and dream helped pave the future for all future recreational and medical cannabis dispensaries. In 2014 the first recreational dispensary, 3D Cannabis opened it’s doors in Colorado. As of 4-1-19 33 states have medical dispensaries and 10 states have recreational dispensaries.

At a dispnsary one will find many differnt kinds of cannabis flowers (buds) and concentrates, edibles along with smoking untensils, but have a limited selection compared to online shops like Elev8 Glass Gallery. The dispensary also will have what is called a budtender to help you find what you are looking for. If you need help with cannabis info Elev8 Presents is a good resource.

What is the difference between a medical or recreational dispensary?

In realtiy medical and recreational dispensaries are the same thing. This all comes down to the states laws on cannabis. We feel cannabis is just like alcohol and medical will happen first and then recreational will follow, and so far history is showing this. Dispensaries are an excellent place for patients and recreational smokers alike to find the cannabis that best suits their needs!
