Review by Bridget Nichole Cappello

They have a really great atmosphere. Very good service. Their selection is very good as well. My husband will always choose them, but we'd like to see more perks for the disabled.

Review by Philip Cypher

My wife is a patient and says they are all super nice and friendly and the products work well for her. Can't tell you first hand as I can't go in and I don't use this type of medication myself

I have been going to Arrow since opening day. The staff, the selection and quality are the best. They also have a wonderful environment and take time to make sure you are getting what you need and answer questions. Over time I have been made to feel like family. They are so incredibly professional and kind. Love walking in!

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!
