  Love it here! Come here all the time, the product and service are both great. But apparently now they won’t let you in to buy products after a certain time unless you pre order in advance…Wish I could have had a head’s up -I’ve been a loyal customer since they opened. I felt it would have been more appropriate to let me buy what I came to get and then say but for future orders you have to pre order. Never seen a business turn away a paying customer like that before but it is what it is I guess, time’s are changing.

  Came in looking for something to help my mother-in-law with sleep and appetite. The staff was fantastic. Chris listened to our situation and made helpful suggestions. Didn't try to take advantage of our inexperience and upsell. The next time we came in, he asked how everything went. Thank you! Will definitely be a repeat customer.

  Between the fact that these shops changed their loyalty program every five or six months and make it harder to achieve discounts but now it seems they are phasing out a very popular brand Airo Which is like the only brand of vapes I would get and now ascend no longer fully stocks them, and it’s been phasing them out all to try to push their in-house products more, which are not as great quality as some of these more established brands

  I came from a different state and didn’t know how the process worked. The guy who was working at the counter was extremely rude and unprofessional. Enough that I would never come into this dispensary again. Service was slow, even though there was multiple stuff, they were running only one registered. There’s no reason to be rude to customers if it’s there first time at a Dispensary in New Jersey.

  The prices here are outrageously high—and that’s not just on this store. It’s the result of excessive state and federal taxation and over-regulation. If legal cannabis is supposed to compete with the unregulated market, pricing has to make sense for consumers. Right now, it doesn’t. What makes this even more frustrating is that licensed growers are allowed to operate and sell wholesale, while everyday people aren’t permitted to grow even a small amount for themselves. That kind of system pushes consumers away from legal businesses instead of encouraging participation in the legal market. Thus the black market cycle continues and the feds get paid even more lol! Cannabis is still treated as a “special danger” in U.S. law, even in states where it’s legal. Unlike other regulated products, it remains federally prohibited, heavily taxed, restricted to licensed or grandfathered sellers, and banned from personal cultivation. Meanwhile, substances with far greater public health impacts—like alcohol and tobacco—are normalized and widely accessible, and firearms are regulated as lawful consumer goods. This policy imbalance inflates prices, limits access, and weakens the legal cannabis market instead of strengthening it. That reality is driven by federal policy, not consumers.
