My first time, and I won’t be going back…
The bud tender was not the least bit helpful, talking to other people the whole time. Only gave an iPad for a menu, which specifically says “all taxes included.” Yet the total includes ANOTHER 27% in taxes?!?

I test-ordered the Leafly Strain of the Year Dosidos (plus some Larry's Breath) and they brought it to my door rapidly, with free delivery, and gave me a discount. Is this real life, or just fantasy?

Went in today and the bud tender was very informative. He was very helpful and gave us some awesome recommendations. Due to covid, their smoking lounge is closed but it was something we been wanting to check out. 10/10 will recommend

its pretty cool a bar where you can injest weed the 30 minute limit was forced for sure but its chill smoke or dab or down a infused beverage. lots of stoner conversations to get into if want.

Got the opportunity to checkout this sweet spot in the Bayam Area @barbarycoastlounge_ while visiting from Seattle.
This was definitely a DOPE #dispensary and the BEST part, is they have vape and smoke lounge!

Flower was very good. Tried the congolese red which was the best of three, white runtz from berners cookies wasnt that impressed, ingrid was the last and it was a nice indica to end the night. Bud tender was very courteous and guided me accordingly. Wish I lived in Cali so I could try all strains. The smoking lounge was cool but bringing newbees here they got grossed out with some people coughing!

On vacation with my wife, we made our way to Barbary Coast (not by accident as we were already aware of it's existence when planning our vacation). After a recommendation by our budtender (she wasn't scientific, but guided us to the right strain of indica - Truffle Butter) we were soon in the dab bar portion of the business. We lit up with the provided pipe and lighter (at no charge). We smoked, relaxed, and watched a game. A perfect afternoon. I would easily return.

Nice place to kick back and try out your purchases. I come mostly for the lounge. Not too far from Muni stop, so you can take public transportation.

I absolutely love this place. I love that it opens early (8am) for those who are getting off from work on graveyard shift & close late (10pm) for those who are on their way to a night out in the town. The atmosphere is real calming & peaceful. I haven't tried the dab bar yet, but when I saw it, it was real nice. There's plenty of people that work there, so you're in & out in no time. This is the place to go.

We recently visited San Francisco. My husband wanted to visit this location. The wares were top-notch. The service was great except on Friday night when it was packed wall to wall. The decor is beautiful and the atmosphere is reminiscent of Old San Fran. Interesting fact we learned from Seth,a concierge, included some history that the decor was based on the location. Apparently this area was the red-light district in the past, hence the red motif. I recommend going early in the day. If you want the best service ask for Addie! She was charismatic and warm.

Make sure you set aside time to stop at this location. If you purchase an item you get 30min access to lounge if you aren't a member.

First Cali dispo visit and the flower is nicer fluff value compared to what dry Phoenix air does to our medical flower. Good service and I dig the lounge. Def a treat!

I went here for the first time today and I have to say it's my new favorite dispensary in the city. They do a few things that are unlike any other places I've been. First of which is here they actually let you touch the bud, break it apart, instead of just smelling it and maybe looking through a magnifying glass. The other thing that was different was, as a first time customer instead of having to pick between an edible or a pre rolled joint here you get both.bits a small thing and one time deal but still nice.
As far as the staff and facility is concerned I have nothing but great things to say as well. The woman who helped me was very welcoming, friendly, cheery and sweet. She was very knowledgeable about all the products, was honest about what was abs wasn't worth the extra money and made excellent recommendations. Plus she was extremely patient and seemed to enjoy taking extra time to look at as many strains as you wanted without feeling rushed. As far as the location it's in what kind of looks like a very nice old bar with an all dark wood counter, wood floors, stained wood trim on the walls with several very nice big comfy leather sofas in the main room and in the front by the desk. The only other club I've been to so far whose facility I like as much is the apothecary. They Also have an actual leather bound menu, the kind you'd see at a restaurant, with a very wide selection of products, 2-3 pages of edibles, 2 for concentrates, the same for vapes and basically the same pages for everything you can think of. Not only is the selection wide but the or be range is too, I was looking at 1/8th so I didn't see anything else. They had prices ranging from a handful of $60 8ths, a few more $55's, a solid number of 50's and a large amount of $45 8ths. Today they even a deal on $45 1/4 of trainwreck that was as good as some $40-$45 8th I see at many places. All around from $45-$60 8ths the quality of great bud was outstanding and they had a very wide & equal verity and range of strains. So there was about the same amount of sativa & indica as there where of the sativa and indica dominate hybrids and CBD heavy strains. Rarely is a place this well and thoroughly stocked.
If your a veteran I believe they give a discount, I just left the service and forgot to ask until after I paid but I was told they offer 10% if you have your VA ID or DD214

Excellent prices and service, the level of professionalism from the employees was a nice change of pace. Plan on going back.

A very cool dispensary with their own smoking lounge nextdoor.

A+ top tier dispensary! Everyone is so nice and super knowledgeable about the medicine they carry! The smoking Lounge is a superb experience, and ever since my first visit, Barbary Coast has become the only place I go for my medicine.
Bonus, I also met a bud tender who's also from the north east like me, and we traded info on the best pizza and bagel spots in the Bay and in Jersey!

One of the better shops in the Bay Area for concentrates. They have cutting edge stuff before others do. Cool shop on the inside, clean and well lit. It feels safe and mellow. Budtenders are usually more knowledgeable and I have gotten good recommendations. Seem to hit the holistic end of the spectrum. Doesn't feel shady or weird.

Great location. Convenient from FiDi or touristy Market street. The ambiance here is fantastic: has an old school
bank or old school barber shop decor. Service is great and the budtenders are knowledgable. However, while their product is thoroughly tested, their product does not seem high quality. Product will be pre-wrapped in ziplocked baggies, and all of mine was drier than I prefer.

This is the one and only dispensary I've been too, so I have little to compare it with. But reading other's reviews I can see I've made a good choice.
I echo the positive sentiments about the atmosphere, quality service and product. It feels like what I'd expect in an establishment of this type in SF. That it belongs here and it's not screwing around.
The tenders are patient, informative and experienced with their product and will take the time to discuss things to help you make the right choices--there's never a rush. And despite the high quality of their products their prices are reasonable. However, I'm a firm believer in overlooking the cheap and flashing and getting what you pay for.
My only criticism is that they get rid of the one insecure doorman with control issues. That kind of ego doesn't belong here. But everyone else is super chill.
