During my second-ever visit last week, I thought I'd lost a keepsake -- my dead dog's ashes in a spent .38 casing -- when I pulled cash out my pocket. Went back and the manager spent 10 minutes reviewing tape before saying it wasn't lost there (later found it beneath the car seat). I thought that was extraordinarily considerate of the guy, and he made a customer for life. Nothing to dislike about the products, place or people. Can't say the same about Beyond/Hello, sorry I ever stepped foot in such a sterile place, with all the charm of a WalMart and employees only slightly more engaging. Ascend is superior in every respect.
I wrote a previous review before rec was available. The dispensary now has delivery which works well since I don’t have a car atm. The variety of flower which is what I primarily purchase has increased by 500% since the early days. The discounts are now my main purchases bc the deals are plenty and the rewards program really helps with cost. I am a regular customer and have never had an issue and way back when I got something defective they replaced it and even offered a discount bc I had to make another trip to the location. So I recommend the product and the location.
I do love this place when I’m on 8th Avenue. The place is a cool lit up spot, you can look at a lot of stuff up close in the cases. One of the budtenders put me on to a vape (ACE Pina Gluelatta) and it was a great choice that helps with getting rest. They also have the drinks, which are cool on the go, especially the LIRR a couple blocks uptown. Join their membership thing, I did. You’ll get texts when there’s interest sales. Great location and will be back when I’m in the area.
Great company; we use their downtown delivery service to get some of their premium weed, and we were amazed by the speed of the service and by the quality of the product. For me, they are the best weed delivery in NYC, good job.
Walking into this shop, one is immediately greeted by friendly and engaged staff who are happy to help choose just the right strains and products to suit each individual’s needs. The shop itself is well-lit, airy, and nicely designed to make it a truly welcoming environment. What a breath of fresh air!
Great experience always, super nice staff and very consistent product.
Went to RISE Manhattan for the first time this week, and the staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. A special shout-out to my pharmacist — easy to connect with, knowledgeable, and generous with his time. In a different (i.e. non-business) setting, I'd have talked his ear off! Am grateful to him, and to the rest of the staff, for welcoming me so warmly to my new favorite dispensary.
