Review by Daniel Smith

Beautiful interior with comfortable seating for waiting times, which wasn't very long at all. Friendly staff and helpful greetings made the first time very easy. The selection Is really good for actual cannabis with a fair amount of edibles and pen options as well. A really nice rewards program too something I don't see too often.

Review by Sarah Ford

Just visiting the area, but I was so impressed with the atmosphere and professionalism. I was shown a good variety of products, and the staff seems very knowledgeable with all of it. The buying process was also quick and simple.

Review by Craig Bliss

Very chic dispensary. The waiting area would remind you of a Fox Concept restaurant! Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Tons of options to choose from. No public bathroom and you’re not able to take pictures.

Review by George Johnson

Great atmosphere. Pleasant and knowledgable staff. If they are busy you should expect a wait. But they keep things moving. I appreciate the time and information when it's my turn to select items from their extensive menu.

Review by Terry Brown

I had doctors appointment at UCSF followed by a lengthy wait for a ct scan, so I paid this store a visit. Great product and great staff. I definitely recommend this shop if you're in the area

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!
