Review by Aaron Paschke

If you like books or even the idea of liking books, this is the spot for you. The books are tastefully arranged on tables about waist-height so you’re always accidentally discovering your new favorite books 📚 . This place is great to kill time on a date or to bring out of town guests. Definitely worth a visit and I hope this store stays in business for a long time to come.

Review by Donny Barrett

A total winner.... Not withstanding the leased out sections to particular vanity publishers... The curating of books on the open tables is wonderful. Anytime I'm near Coral Gables I make it a point to swing by and noodle around... Good for the soul in this world of formulaic depressing book dying book shops (think the. Soon to be extinct Barnes and Noble)

Review by Alexandra Thomas

My favorite bookstore! The cafe and chill setting always encourage me to stop by and find a new great read. The authors who come out for book signings are always unique and refreshing!

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!
