i loved this place. it was a little tucked away so i passed it but it was definitely worth turning around. the woman that greeted me when i walked in was very sweet and knowledgeable. she informed me that they were originally a medical despinsary but were now recreational and she took be to the back of the room where their collection was and it was very neat and organized. the young man behind the counter also knew his product very well. i told them what i like, which was indicas, and they showed me multiple pages that had the name and info on their flowers. i bought a gram of mothers dragon and blue sugar cookies for $14 and a 0.5 pre-roll of og kush for $9 and it was all totally worth it. I'd definitely recommend this place to a newbie or anyone that wants to try some grade A medical.
Ratings and reviews of The Herbal Gardens
While visiting Tacoma today I opted to drop in at THG, based on the outstanding Leafly reviews. Though I live in Redmond and frequent Seattle dispensaries, I found this one to be particularly refreshing. I was greeted by a very pleasant lady who verified my prescription then passed me on to a gentleman who I believe owns or runs the dispensary. That is when the fun began! The owner spent no less than 15 - 20 minutes educating me on the test results for each and every strain they had available. I was blown away by the absolute first hand knowledge the gentleman had regarding medical use of cannabis. I have been to practically every dispensary in the Seattle area, with high Leafly reviews, and none conduct such extensive testing. Furthermore, THG had a more extensive selection of flower and accoutrements of any store I have visited in the Seattle area. Needless to say, though I live 35+ miles from THG in Tacoma, I will be making the drive rather than wasting time with lesser equipped dispensaries in Seattle. It blows me away that in all of Seattle, there is not one single dispensary as well stocked and run by such nice, knowledgeable/caring people. Give em' a try!
Great selection for the Cannabis Snobs like me. If you like fine wine you pay a little more, when you like a fine scotch you pay a little more so when you find a fine bud you pay a little more !
This is far and away the best shop in Tacoma. Lou always has great product and selection. I love this spot so much I was down to splitting roaches just waiting for them to reopen.
The Herbal Gardens visit was my first time there and I read all the wonderful reviews and I was impressed. I had such a great experience the moment I arrived until the moment I left. I was greeted with warm smiles and a nice welcome. A big thank you to the caring staff, Lou and Fred for going the extra mile to educate me on every question I had. THG,s professionalism and knowledge is the best I've encountered. I honestly felt they truly cared about my specific medical needs and they got me started off with great suggestions for me. I will be going back to The Herbal Gardens for all my medicinal care. Thanks guys for making my first visit awesome and spending your time helping me and with what works best for me.
Lou you are the best I knew you would pull threw. Thanks for being a great roll model to all of us entrepreneurs who want to bring alternative medicine back to basics. #GirlOnFire
I always learn something when I come to your store and the service is top notch! Everyone is friendly and willing to answer questions anytime. I have been going to Herbal Gardens for nearly a year now and there are many things that keep bringing me back. A huge variety of strains to choose from including several top shelf options as well. The most welcoming and personable staff that I have come across in a business. Mostly though I can trust the information they give and the fact that they test onsite adds to their credibility as well. Love you guys because you have helped relieve my pain and increase the quality of my life. Thank you!
I use to come in here as a medical patient and Louis had the best selection. I am pretty sure he was the only medical place that did his own in house testing too. Since he switched over to retail I have stopped in a couple times now as well. These guys go above and beyond any other recreational shop. Very clean and discreet facilities, great selection on flower and everything else under the sun.
THG is very professional and tests all their products so you know what you are getting. I am very satisfied with the dry meds I picked up recently and have been around the mmj market in this area for aprox 3+ years. Great shop all around.
I got my license today and naturally THG was my first choice of places to visit. I came in only because their website said that they tested all of their products using mass spec, which is impressive and a unique thing to read. I had a great experience the moment I walked in the door, everyone that I talked to was friendly and helpful. I was able to explain why I was given a license and several different products were suggested, from oils and lotions to edibles and flower. Louis and a few others (I'm sorry, I can't remember their names) spent the better part of 20 minutes answering my questions and I was even given a couple samples. I left happy with the things that I had chosen to try and I will definitely be back in the future.
Very friendly and knowledgeable staff! They take quality and purity very seriously, so you can find great, affordable product and never be disappointed with the results. Highly recommended!
Old school medical feel. Prices are comparable to the mid-low tier averages, but better quality than most of cheaper stuff around.
Awesome place I'm glad to see them still around after 1 July. Great service and products you can't go wrong here.
The first time I went to THG was a happy accident. Getting there was a little more complicated, but when compared to the discretion their location provides coupled with their UNMATCHED customer service and product standards--not coming here is more of a disservice to you than it is them. The products? They're the best at what they do, with the numbers to show for it. I'm late in putting in a well-deserved review...but Lou and Brenda especially have been there for me in an incredibly caring way. Finding someone in this business that cares more about their patients than revenue is invaluable. Every staff member is a knowledgable about the industry, and the atmosphere is always very welcoming. They have fun with their jobs, and you can see they enjoy being there--which of course makes ME want to be there! To the THG crew: Thank you for everything you guys do--you deserve more than you get, but we are ALL grateful for your help!
Louis is the MAN when it comes to high quality clean meds!! xtremely knowledgeable about all things cannabis!! I can't wait for them to be one the 1st to get a medical endorsement as a rec shop. Give this place a try if I have never been & trust me you will not b disappointed...
A bit off the beaten path and a little difficult to find BUT so WORTH IT! Had a great experience just due to the enthusiasm, friendliness and knowledge of the staff. High quality product and good selection.
Awesome! I came in here today as the first day of reopening possibly. I got mother of dragons, blue sugar cookies, and Willie's wonder in flower form. Everyone was very helpful and has a great attitude. The bud tender was very patient with me as I looked over the menu and helpful with strand questions. I can't wait to come back!!!
This store has everything a first time visitor needs. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is top notch. I was educated on what would be the best product for my ailments. (They also cater to pets as well. ) It was a relief to be able to have my needs met in the most professional of way. I will definitely be back.
This is the ONLY dispensary I will use. I trust the extensive testing done on the medicine. The staff always take the time to review how my symptoms responded to treatment and continue to make suggestions to address any other needs. Thank you.
Top notch product that is tested. In fact, the test aspect is what first motivated me to visit this dispensary. The test results help understand / predict a strain's effect. The herb is always fresh, nicely trimmed and presented. The staff is excellent. They are knowledgeable and it is obvious they care about their customers, two rare qualities that are seldom encountered these days. The pharmacy itself is clean and comfortable. We drive approximately 20 miles from dispensaries that are closer to home but it's well worth the drive for the quality and service.
there bud is asome the staff are ever helpful,
I would recommend this amazing place to everyone! This place is great, outstanding meds and super nice geniune staff. There hearts are in this for all the right reasons and they always have a smile waiting for you. The RSO they make is lifesaving medication really helped me with crippling PTSD. Thanks again guys!
Was recommended by a friend to come here so I recently started coming here and I love it! Just down the street from where I live really convenient for me plus there's so many strains to choose from!!! Love their cookies!! Staff are really knowledgeable and courteous! Definitely recommending to all patients. Gives me a sense of comfort and safety knowing they test everything to make sure it's up to par! Also prices are pretty awesome.
The Herbal Gardens is absolutely fantastic. Lou and Brenda are warm, courteous, and so very knowledgeable. All of the staff at THG are welcoming, caring, patient, and kind. Their selection vast and is hands down the best quality. They are truly prepared to make your experience the best. I am so happy to have found them. my first visit was formal and educational. Every time I have been in since I feel as if I am having a quick visit with friends and I walk away with a little more bounce in my step. What a stellar group of people!
