This place is great! It's professional looking, the staff is helpful, and I'm never disappointed here. The buds are decent and the prices range from affordable to not so cheap.
I would recommend using eazeup.com first and use promo code iceiib to get $35 off your first order if you want to try their products/buds because eaze is a delivery service for medical marijuana patients and their official and only vendor is SPARC so everything you get whether its a free eighth, edibles, wax, or concentrates, it'll be the same as if you got it at the SPARC location. Delivery is Fast and Free. And there is no minimum purchase price.
SPARC is definitely worth a try though if you haven't checked it out yet.

I simply cannot say enough about the speed with which Eaze delivers. They are consistent and are exceptional in their service. Once you have placed your order you will receive a confirmation via whichever communication method you prefer. The drivers are very good about updating you with their ETA. Only downside is that they are a cash only delivery service.
The only reason why I would not give this location a five star review on quality is because they do not offer as many indica strains as I would like. They seem to specialize in a lot of sativas, sativa hybrids, and strains high in CBD.
Their brick and mortar is such a beautiful and inviting space for visitors. They offer good free tea and vaping tables as well as regular demonstrations and samples.
I love that this particular dispensary really cares about promoting community wellness with free massages, acupuncture, music and community service opportunities.

The "Highest" quality Vape Lounge/Dispensary in SF.

Dear Ryan or any other upper-level management:
This is an open letter to you regarding my most recent visit to SPARC SF.
I have been a very loyal patient, signing up within your first week of operation. Lately I have been having more problems than help and have actually never felt as small and inferior as I did yesterday. It was a little after 11.30 or so and my Father who happens to be my caretaker came in with me to get medicine. Business as usual, Alexandria is an angel. Having a little time, we decided to sit for a bit. My dad had some tea and helped me with one of your volcanoes -- I have little stability with my fine motor skills.
Everything seemed to be fine; we sat, talked and discussed future doctor appointments. We were rudely interrupted by the in-house security warning us that our “half our was up and we had to pack up and leave.” We looked to our right and not one single volcano was being occupied nor were there patients waiting in line for medicine or a vaporizer. Knowing we were going to leave within 10 minutes anyway, we packed up and turned in our vape kit.
I explained my issue to the front desk attendant who was very empathetic and understanding. He told me to wait for Harley, the manager at the time. I had an issue with him in the past and nothing was done about it. Aside from this, I explained the issue at-hand. His two responses were that, “people in the past have over-medicated and passed out” and that “the 30 minute rule was there to give other patients a chance to use the volcanoes.” I politely told him that I have a legitimate physical ailment and have been a returning patient at SPARC SF since the first week of operation. I explained I have a high tolerance for pain due to the nerve damage caused by having spinal surgery to remove a tumor from the inside of my spinal cord and in addition, I had my care taker with me at the time to watch over me. Harley still would not say anything helpful, apologize, or even take a note for a suggestion. He didn’t even seem to care when I said I have a legitimate physical neurological disability that is now most likely permanent. I hope I never have to see him again.
I totally understand that if it was busy and patients were waiting in line for medicine while others were in line for vaporizers, the 30-minute rule is completely valid. Under this circumstance I usually don’t even use the volcanoes.
Using the volcano yesterday for 31 minutes or so was perfect for me and I would have left within 5 minutes. I did not have to be warned and kicked out by security, especially when the house was empty! Talk about rude… it almost felt like discrimination. Security could have been doing something else to help instead of throwing around power as does Harley.
I told Harley that its a shame he is never any help and that it was sad that SPARC SF has gone down this far to lose a LOYAL patient. As I walked out the door, there was still no one at the “volcano lounge” or waiting to use it.
Very disappointed,
Andre S.

SPARC provides a modern, high end, dispensary with a great atmosphere and helpful staff. You won't find thick, bullet proof, security barricades between you and the sales associate. Instead you'll see a row of volcano vaporizers setup on tables to try out your goods before leaving the premises. They have a great collection of dried herbs, as well as some edibles, concentrates, and other goods. The pricing is a little steep, but that's the cost of having such a nice place.

Vape bar is a great perk of membership, so is the complimentary tea. Great selection of some very good product. Bit more expensive but Sparc is worth it.

I love this place. The menu changes often and I'm usually happy with my purchase.

I love this place! It was the first collective I joined and they were very helpful with the whole process. Everything is well-organized and the budtenders are generally knowledgeable about the product. Plus the lounge has several volcanoes that members can use for free!

I just really like the experience here. It's not so overly bland and sterile looking that it feels clinical. Nor is it overtly "trying too hard" with dim lights and reclaimed wood everywhere.
It's just... tasteful. Modern. Clean. Friendly. Positive.
And the products are always on point. No matter what your needs, they will have in stock something for everyone.

The staff at SPARC is terrific. They are polite and professional. SPARC has a suggestion box that they REALLY LOOK AT. I requested a strain that was no longer available, and WOW! SPARC had my strain back on the menu.

SPARC has help me with all my cannabis medication needs for the past few years. Introducing me to my first CBD strains and continuing to keep many in stock. Also can't forget Bingo night with all the prizes!

Excellent place to come chill out for few. Every now and then they give away stuff, like today they are giving away free cookies .

Consistently the best in CBD strain options. I live pretty far away and always make it here just for that. Plus, free tea! Awesome place.

Excellent dispensary with a great selection. I use their website often to check for specific strains and potency.

Knowledgable welcoming staff, strains labeled with THC and CBD levels, clean modern interior with an awesome Volcano Lounge.

Over rated! Over rated! The service was horrible. I literally felt like I was at the DMV. I have a real medical issue and I was asking the gal about the different strains and the effects and she was completely annoyed by my questions. She kept looking over my shoulder and was focused on the line behind me. She made me feel like a complete idiot. She ended up selling me some Larry OG which was way to strong for me. Shame on you SPARC....I will never go back again. Thank you Leafly for allowing me to voice my opinion!

The staff were both kind and helpful as well as patient but some of the other patrons were disrespectful and made snide comments that I really didn't appreciate. It ruined my first time at a club and my first time at Sparc. I liked the facility and it had a nice vibe but it felt small and the floor space wasn't used very well.
I just have to say, again, that the staff were really good, from the people at the front desk, to the people behind the counter, even the people out front were kind and helpful. I would make the trip into the city to go back to Sparc.

Great shop. The staff are incredibly friendly from the security at the door to the budtenders behind the counter. Meds are pretty good quality, but a bit pricy. The top shelf stuff was never worth the extra cost in my experience, but the low and mid range options were decent buys.

let the people at Leafly know.. they need to check the website and or come in and check the menu before putting it up on yours.. as for what sparc or any dispensary(club) has it is very annoying and disappointing to put certain stains on your menu saying we have or they have then when a patient comes and if its not there it is disappointing.. so LEAFLY please check what out menu is before putting it up on yours.. thanks bitches!!

I Love Sparc SF. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Great selection and a wonderful place to visit for a minute or an hour. They offer a variety of special services and events.

This is my go to dispensary. Visiting here is pure pleasure, the medicine is wonderful, with plenty of variety and lovely indoor and outdoor buds. The staff is kind and knowledgeable and can answer questions and make informed reccomendations. The Green Dragon is legend, and their outdoor blue dream is transcendant. The atmosphere is wonderful, with lovely interior design and several volcanos. An amazing mix of patients from all walks can be found here. Also, the door staff are friendly, and keeps dog biscuits for canine visitors. Visiting is an utter pleasure. Treat yourself to this Mecca of wellness. Go today.

The people were very nice, very friendly. My buddy and I decided to go and vape, and we became friends with some of the people there. And the quality is really good.
