I am from Chicago and I have been to every weed place around exit 1 in New Buffalo. This place is hands down the best dispensary I have been to. I had corey or Cory as my bud tender. She was an expert at the strains... I have struggled with the strains that give me the high I'm looking for and she knew exactly what I was explaining to her. She was awesome and friendly and I came home with great strains I can't find in Illinois. The staff also had a computer error they had to fix from my online order and they worked hard to fix the error. I am truly happy I found a dispensary I enjoy and the vibe is awesome. Please keep up the great work URB !!

Amy B was so friendly and helpful! Busy place but a good atmosphere

I’ve been going here since they opened. I love the knowledgeable staff. I think Maggie went to weed college lol

Great service, and very prompted! Knowledgeable about product and consulted greatly! Thank you!

I’ve been coming to this Rise since legalization and wow what a change. The newly remodeled building is amazing. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. Greg is the man! He knows everything. Always fun laughing with the people behind the counter too. Some funny ass mfers. Always a good experience here and their selection has drastically improved.

12/24/25. Sam, the cashier was super chill & down to earth. Really good at his job and took good care of me as a customer! 10/10 experience.

Friendly staff and fast service every visit. Usually have some great sales going on and their living wall is awesome! Haven’t checked out the lounge yet but I’m sure it’s great.

I've been here 4 times and every time I'm out in 3 minutes. friendly staff, good bud, and the prices are better than sunny side

Staff is always friendly and helpful. Lines move quickly depending on time of day. The ordering process is smooth as butter.

The staff is great, I like them all and the manager is really cool, and very intelligent!

Staff was very friendly, informative, and helpful! Unfortunately, I don’t remember her name but one of the ladies there went above and beyond. The store is very nicely laid out; would definitely recommend!

What a cool experience. I still feel a bit awkward openly walking into the store but I promise you, I'll get over it!!! I appreciate the over-the-top service starting right at the front door. Always pleasant and welcoming. And the same is true in the store. All my questions are answered according to my needs. I love it!! Thanks to everyone at the store.

Today for the first time I had trouble opening the PDF of my medical card. I was directed to talk to Chris, who really knows his way around a phone! He helped me get out to the state site just to re-download my card, and filed it away so that I had options of ways to open it. Good Job thwarting my panic attack (:. And then found me a better deal than what I had ordered and saved me about $30! They do go above and beyond here.

I've been to a few dispensaries and Star Buds has by far the best flower selection! I don't know if it's because of what they call deli-style ( Pick your own buds in any amount you want) or what but it feels like they have so much more.

This is quite frankly my favorite errand to run every month. I was getting paid once a month by my previous employer so I set my stash up for a once monthly re-up cycle. Not long after I got my medical card I was at my monthly stop when I saw a dog on a leash in the building that was not a service dog. I confirmed with the staff that dogs were allowed in the building and ever since then I have brought my Daniff (English Mastiff x Great Dane) with me. She loves all the staff and they love her back! When we walk in she's jumping on the counter and getting showered with treats before I even get checked in lol. Love the store and the people in it. Great service, great deals, membership points exchangeable for cash, you name it.

They constantly rock it out of the park. Best prices, drive thru is awesome.

First dispensary I ever went to and I was spoilt. Sunnyside is honestly the best all around.

Amazing staff and experience from the moment you walk in the door. Beautiful modern building and esthetic as well! Favorite place to shop in the Lakemoor area.

I'm really beginning to hate their website it has become almost impossible to place an order ahead of time because the site keeps freezing up.

I always love this place specially this location Andy always take care of me and takes his time very much appreciated

Everyone is very knowledgeable about what strains are good for what and always a great atmosphere
