This place is great! Very helpful, knowledgeable on products, & everyone is super nice. Great experience! I've gone back multiple times and brought people with me.

Ratings and reviews of Harborside - Oakland
Purchased Sour Diesel and Grape Ape clones from Harborside. They have been the most awesome producers and I will return next year for more. Can't wait!
Great place bud tenders know there stuff they were fast and gave me the best strain for my pain and the best donation price.
Harborside is the most informative place and I love it.
Best dispensary around the Bay Area, possibly in the world.
I'm an avid patient @ HTC, very knowledgeable and make you feel at home. Very good concentrate selection and good herbs and clones.
Love this place! Always great service and great prices. The honeyfarm fruit cartridges are the best!! Love these things! Thanks Harborside for always hooking it up! :)
Best dispensary around the Bay Area. Yes there is a tour, but it actually shows you what more they have to offer, so no biggie to me. Feels extremely safe,clean and very professional. I hope it stays open forever.
amazing people,place, and experience
Beautiful and friendly atmosphere. Very clean and well organized with a pretty simple but effective layout. The line can take a while so I would suggest pick up orders if you already know what you're interested in. If not, the budtenders are hella friendly and informative and will give you any information you need.
I've gone to Harborside many times and I've always found them to be helpful and supportive. I have severe neurological issues due to an action which have drastically affected my physical condition. I've gone there for high CBD products and the staff has always directed me to the most effective cannabis to deal with my issue. Thank you Harborside!
Hands down, one of the best dispensaries in CA. Love the mercy too.
A little pricy but would go back in a pinch.
Fantastic products. Customer service was phenomenal.
Love this place. Great medicine, clean, professional spot. Service has always been excellent and the staff are probably some of the most patient people I've ever come across. Great selection of glass, too. Edibles are the best in the area. The THCoffee was probably the greatest thing I've ever drank. Only bad things I could say are that this place is pretty much always busy and packed. I've been there at opening before and still had to wait 15-20 minutes. Wouldn't recommend going if you're in a hurry. Everyone should at least try this place. Super consistent, great products.
The most compassionate people work there, questions answered without feeling rushed, very knowledgeable, smiles all around... They truly care about their patients.
My favorite of them all. Never a bad atmosphere. Everyone is always helpful. Love it!!!
I started going here in 2009. It set the standard. The best stash in the whole world. Great staff. Love the fresh flowers.
I can't imagine a better possible experience - in fact, this could be one of the finest customer experiences I've had in any retail establishment in years. Friendly and educated staff, clean and organized location, tons of options, high quality, fully tested cannabis. Introductory walk-through with valuable info, and free health-conscious classes. This is what the medical cannabis experience should be.
Everyone is so friendly and helpful
good vibe
Well-organized. Being able to order online or call-in and pick up is great. You can use your Debi card. ATM available, as well. Large selection of quality accessories.
Everything is great
Harborside is a victim of its own success, I think, in terms of atmosphere. I had heard about this place so long and from so many people, had checked out the San Jose location, so when I went up to Oakland and had the opportunity to check out the original Harborside I had to. I ended up feeling like I was in a bank; the atmosphere was really impersonal and I ended up feeling a bit lost. The personal touch I like from the smaller clubs just wasn't there and the quality of the meds was no better than anywhere else. Overall, it was cool to check out but I am apathetic about going back.
