Review by K3N1977

It's like going back to the 1950s-60s, or the Iowa State Fair! Genuine old-fashioned soda fountain. The Oreo- peppermint bars are to die for. The servers make you feel at home and take good care of you. I'd give more than five stars if I could!

Really an icon in the community. Sandwiches are delicious and inexpensive. Ice cream is made on site, also delicious. Love coming here for lunch with my 2 year old.

Great local ice cream shop! Great selection of flavors, but it’s hard to not choose the Peppermint Bar or the Buddha Bar!!! Great place to sit and enjoy some excellent homemade ice cream!!!

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!
