Lazy. They could care less about customers. Also don’t waste time ordering online you’ll just be skipped over for walk ins

My job has prevented me from utilizing until recently. Commencement Bay - Yellow in Fife was my first stop on the way home when that was no longer an obstacle, just because I knew the location. I might plan to use others simply because of the distance from home, but if I'm in the Tacoma area, this is my go-to stop for my needs. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and was able to recommend the specific products I needed. My main focus is pain management rather than recreational usage, and the edibles they recommended worked beautifully.

One of the worst experience of my life bought $100 worth of product came home and opened half of them very empty. Called the store spoke to MOD was advised by him to come in . I went there and my return was refused basically blaming me for stealing the product What a scam stay away please.

i am currently online making an order however i go here cause the prices are great however at check out this time i have a $19 tax! i have never experienced this and will deeply impact the amount of pain and anxiety relief i will be able to purchase and use do simply to this tax, i have never expierenced more than 5-8 tax and i always order $50 wherever i go, and i only go here and greenside in kent. this taxation is insane, i honestly dont think i will be able to order at this price, mind you i will continue to shop here when i have no choice, it will simply be a single item purchase from here.

Don't believe what you see on their website when placing a preorder because you may order a hybrid product but be given an indica product, and vice-versa. Also, don't try to complain to management because they just turn it around and make you the idiot for not doing your research on how marijuana is grown and why you prefer one product over the other.
Therefore, just go in, inspect what you ordered to ensure it is right before you leave. Otherwise, just take what you got and shut up because they could care less about you as a customer.

I was a regular and loyal customer up until today. You stopped honoring medical cards. I’m heartbroken 💔. Hands down the best shop around. Hate taking my business elsewhere.

I used to love this dispensary. But with the recent issues in the area it's become incredibly obvious that they don't care about their medical customers. Masks required. Fine. Whatever. I can deal with that. What I can't deal with is them refusing to serve you if you don't cover your nose. Even after you've told them that you can't and you'll start going into a panic attack. I was shaking and trying not to cry and pass out the whole time in their store and then spent probably 10 minutes crying and trying to calm down in their parking lot before I felt ok enough to drive. This was about an hour ago and I still have a massive headache and my hands are like pins and needles. I get severe panic attacks when I come across things related to my childhood trauma and having my breathing restricted by something over my face is one of those things. This store is run by maskholes. They have medical patients so they should be taking those with medical issues who can't wear masks into consideration but they obviously don't care. I haven't found a single other place that forces masks over noses. As per the department of health they should have an alternative option for those that can't wear masks. And they don't.

First, I don't recommend this place to anyone and I suggest better dispensaries, Evergreen N.Renton, for anyone looking for a good experience. My wife and I have come here for a long time since moving to Seattle area. I have appreciated supporting the tribe and the interactions I have had with people working there that are from Hawaii. I stopped going there after an ongoing issue we have had with workers and patrons sexually harassing my wife. I wanted to like this establishment, but every time I left feeling like I needed to buy more marijuana to deal with the trauma. No need.

I dislike how the budtenders don't know a damn thing about the medical science of cannabis not do they know the difference between indica Hybrid and just straight indica. This is why recreational marijuana is bullshit they hire nothing but idiot potheads. Not everyone smokes to get high.

I read a lot of the reviews on this dispensary most are pretty accurate in my opinion some are probably one-off incidents unfortunately for them (the customer) I have been shopping here since the very first day they opened and in my opinion this is a very good dispensary it's one of the cheapest for Phat Panda but have a great selection and variety across the board so in that regards it's a great dispensary some of the bud tenders are a little short and rude then again some of them are fantastic and knowledgeable. We need to remember as customers that the bud tenders are human, all have bad days just like the rest of us so sometimes a negative review over 1 incident seems a little vindictive.. I will continue to go back keep up the good work hand but tenders try the leave personal at the door when you walk in and clock in

location is clean and the staff is very helpful. I'm a casual user and the staff is always very helpful with recommending things I might like.

I’ve been coming here for a very long time now. Definitely has the best prices. The thing is not once, not twice, but three times in a row that I come in I notice their staff just acts a bit arrogant. Back then the atmosphere was outstanding, you would walk in and feel welcomed. I wouldn’t even mind dropping extra cash because the staff was so energetic and encouraging. Now when I walk in it’s almost like these same staff members just have a big ego. Today I stood in line watched how a register opened and the cashier turned around ignoring me so the cashier right next to him had to assist me. But the moment I mentioned i just wanted a $5 joint he made a face and looked at the dude next to him. I mostlikely won’t be going back. But good luck and I hope you guys continue to have a successful business even with your shitty staff.

I have to disagree with those who are praising the bud tenders. I am usually lucky enough to get someone who is knowledgable, but I have dealt with a couple who were completely clueless. One looked confused when I asked for CO2 derived oil cartridges and, struggled to find any. She had to ask someone else. Another sold me two 1 gm. Sativa cartridges when I clearly asked for Indica and told her I use it for sleep. Didn’t notice ‘till I got home. My own fault, I guess, for trusting them too much. I still have those cartridges, six months later.

It’s great. Staff is great, always helpful. Store is very clean, well lit which is important. It’s a dispensary not a “club”. They really seem to have eyes on everything and everyone for safety reasons, I appreciate that as I’m sure others do as well.

This place is okay. Kind of over priced compared to clear choice or lucid. Don't have a very good selection on $25 1/8 and weed is very dry IMO unless you pay $40+ even top shlef buds are dry, but they are potent. The pre rolls are not rolled properly 90% of the time. always too tight and can not smoke it and end up re rolling it myself.

This is my go to spot. Good selection, nice prices.

Veterans Day discount only if you have proof that your a veteran. You don’t get Veteran ID after you serve your country. Happy Veterans Day, Jerks!

This used to be my go-to spot when they first opened. Their budtenders are awesome, however their menu has not been accurate lately. At all. The last two times that we've gone in, they didn't have anything that was listed on their menu and they tried to sell us other strains that we didn't want. I really felt sorry for the budtenders that would scramble around and try to come up with solutions for their lack of inventory. We normally spend about $200 a visit, but with these continuous inaccuracies with their menu, we'll be spending our money at shops that actually have what they say they have. Get it together, CBC!
