I went to this clinic for the first time this week.
I normally get a lot of anxiety when I go into the clinics, but Saf was a very warm and helpful budtender to talk with.
Saf took the time to happily explain the difference of hemp CBD and Cannabis CBD - without making me feel stupid, and this is something I am so grateful for!
When I come back to this clinic, I hope to always be seen by Saf!
If you're new or returning, definitely try to see Saf and also if you are looking for honest information before your purchase, Saf is great and explaining things clearly and helpfully!
Bud tenders don’t get to keep tips. Only get $20-40 a week. People tip because they know bud tenders are minimum wage. dispensary’s make too much money for that. When you treat employees good they are loyal. When you don’t you have high turn over rate and dishonest or unhappy employees.
Good prices and big selection. I’ve come in a several times. it was the only store close by for a long time and been happy with the sales but the budtenders used to be a lot more friendly or at least knowledgeable. This shop can’t seem to keep anyone long. I miss the budtender who knew about dabs and could get me the right thing every time. I have been going to la mota lately and found it is small but everything is good. They are friendly and know about there products.
They say dynamite comes in small packages. This shop size might be smaller than some I’ve visited but the energy in the store made small cozy and product easily accessible without an extensive hike. As for the quality, fantastic selection. The brands available are ones I am used to at a price I was thrilled about. The moon rocks... It has taken me about twenty minutes to write this. Highly recommend. And I do mean highly.
I was actually trying to go somewhere else but got turned around and this ended up being the closest dispensary. I should have just rerouted to my original destination. My budtender seemed annoyed to help me, the store wasn’t very organized, very little visual appeal, and didn’t even walk me through the menu. Not even worth the stop. If you’re in St Johns, make the drive elsewhere.
If I didn't live within two minutes walking distance I would never go here. Especially not for extracts.
I can't speak for their knowledge of their stock of flower, since I've mostly only gotten dabs from them. But the quality of their dabs (and flower) is good, they have a large selection, and the prices are decent. It's just that the employees in general seem irritated no matter what, and It's the only dispensary I've ever been where a quick glance at their online dab menu means that you now know what they have in stock better than 99% of the employees do. And it's the only place I've been to where to find a strain of extract the budtenders always have to be told what brand it's being sold under.
I pay very little attention to branding and instead go by strain name and quality. But I find myself having to look up the brand for the employees, from their own website, while they just kinda stand there, almost every single time I visit.
Otherwise they are incapable of finding or remembering strains of extract they have in stock. I've been told multiple times now by almost every employee "I'm not sure we have that" when I ask for almost any strain of extract by name, no matter how common the strain is, sometimes the day after I had already bought a gram. Only for me to have to look up their website on my phone, find the brand, then tell the employee the brand, and hear a surprised "oh! we do have that strain" Also most employees recommendations are extremely vague and usually along the lines of stuff like "well this one is an indica"
All of this would be less of a problem if there was a paper menu for dabs in the store you could look at, or if dabs were kept where the customer can easily see them and read the names. But every single dab is kept against the back wall with tiny labels, making them almost impossible to actually impossible for the customer to read. Especially now with social distancing.
I don't expect every employee to have personally tried all their extracts or really to even know anything about extracts themselves or have ever tried them. All I ask is that they can at least semi-consitently find strains by name instead of having to ask me what brand they carry happens to currently be selling it.
About 99% of the employees here might as well be robots. It would make almost no difference since they dont know their inventory, can't find stuff, and usually can't make any kind of actual recommendation.
club sky high used to be my favorite dispensary in st. john’s, but the last few times i have been in the service has been exceptionally weird and rude!! this last time i admittedly was coming in a little late - about a half hour to close - but i walked in with my id in my hand ready to go, and the guy checking absolutely snapped at me saying “can i just see it?” anyway??? like i am already handing it to you sir! the bud tenders were also rude and impatient and pushed product i wasn’t really wanting on me, despite the fact that i knew what i wanted ahead of time since i knew i was coming in later than was ideal. i don’t know what happened here but the last time i was here in the middle of the day, the service was similarly impatient and clipped. i don’t know if management here has changed or something but it’s super disappointing to feel so unwelcome in a weed store of all places. not to mention i’m a really polite person and shopper. i didn’t ask a million questions or ask to see a bunch of things. i think i’m going to look for a new spot.
Although I consider this a five star dispensary, I was disappointed with today’s visit. I went in looking for a $48. ounce as advertised in the “deals”. What I saw at about 2 in the afternoon looked to be pretty rough. I asked the bud tender if they had anything that wasn’t all stems or shake and her reply was, “What you see is what we’ve got.” Now, I’m not the type who wants to be fawned over when I come in; I like to find what I’m looking for and get in and out but I’m used to being treated by a friendly staff here; certainly less brusquely than today. Needless to say, I excused myself and made a quick exit empty handed.
I’ve been visiting Sky High for a few years, each time is a real pleasure. You’ll run into the same Budtenders each visit who will make sure you leave well heeled. Say hello to Paul when you get there! 😊
Terrible place to shop. Customer service is poor and disorganized; from the time we walked in they were pushy, contradicting each other about what the prices of different strains were; in the end, we were over-charged for what ended up being nothing but bottom-of-the-bag shake, stems, and even dried up leaves.
I recommend shopping somewhere else.
Both times I visited I was helped quickly and efficiently by the same bud tender. They have veterans discount and a great selection from what I have seen. I try to be in and out before I’m distracted and spend too much and luckily I have been able to do just that without being pressured to buy other things. I will for sure keep coming back!
The people are great. Knowlegable, helpful and personable. Excellent flower deals everyday. They always have a wide variety and outstanding quality! I enjoy their oils and edibles as well. I've been going there since 2014. Enjoy!!
Without fail one of the coolest shops in town! Love supporting these folks and they always support the medical community. Thank you for the good times!
The bud tender knew her product, offered a few options and explained the daily deals they had. But when I got home the container had a ridiculous amount of stems, and the flower itself tasted terrible, strangely harsh. The only other time I went there the employee helping me was rude about my choice of flower.
