Review by Carl Jones

I love this dispensary. It was the first dispensary I found and have been a member for a year. I personally believe they have the best Cannabis menu I have ever seen. The menu keeps you well informed on each product. I am greatful for the education I received on medical marijuana. It has eased my stroll down the Cannabis trail.

I made an online order a couple of weeks ago and received an email stating that my order was ready for pick up. When I arrived at BPG to pick up my order the staff person gave me only one item that I had orderd. My email confirmation receipt showed my complete order of four items . What happened to my order?? No legitimate answers were provided by the staff person. Did a staff person take from my order and sell to someone else?Why did they send me a CONFIRMATION email of FOUR items ready for pick up when they only had ONE item waiting for me. This feels overwhelmingly sheisty. The cashier had no explanation for me other than " I dont know what happened??" "Maybe they were moving too fast" WTF?? I asked who sent the email stating my order was ready? Surely that person would know what happened.. She didn't know that either! WTF! If your business sends false confirmations of purchase and your staff cannot explain what happened after they screw up or take from your order,this is an unethical business. How can we trust BPG if they allow this to happen. They dont offer any compensation for the fact that they screwed up your order. The wasted drive and gas you burned driving to their establishment only to find that your confirmation receipt that they send you is just meaningless Do we customers need to file complaints with the BBB about the questionable business practices of BPG? Someone needs to be held accountable for their shady dealings with customers orders.

Review by Armann Daniels

I am Wounded Warrior Veteran to start this off. I went to this dispensary specifically to purchase indica cannabis seeds, for personal use for various medical ailments acquired from serving in the service. I asked the associate upon reaching the counter specifically if they had such a product in stock and I asked for him to verify with another employee that the options being given to me as choices were in fact indica and I was assured they were. I purchased the Crockett Family Farms Strawberry Fields seeds, they were never opened and I researched just to make sure the seeds were in fact indica after the sale and they turned out to be a sativa hybrid. The day after purchasing these seeds I called the customer service to see explain what had happened and that I was a new patient and came to the dispensary to start with the intent of leaving with indica seeds. They refused to offer any store credit or exchange for the seeds even though this whole fiasco happened because of their employees' lack of knowledge on the products they're selling. Do not do business with this place if you value your:money, fair transactions, and quality customer service. I tried to give this business a fair chance and opportunity to make it right and they failed. Do the right thing, because it's the right thing to do.

The longest running dispensary in America knows how to treat their customers and patients. I even heard they cover the city tax for their med patients, just as a nice gesture. They truly seem to care about the customer experience.

Review by Nubby Shober

Great selection, high prices. Option to pre-order online--which is very time-saving, and reduces time spent standing in line considerably. During lunch breaks--especially just before a weekend after payday--expect long lines. Always manage to get parking in their lot.

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!
