I love this store! They have the best staff who know their stuff, and I have never been let down by their recommendations. The Canada Day event was amazing! Loved the cookies and Alexia was absolutely a doll! She really knows about ALL of the products at the store and she took her time with me going over what each one had to offer. She really cared and it shows and I'll definitely be going back!

What a fantastic experience! I visited the store looking for help and was treated like a long-time customer. The store's clean and well-organized layout made a great first impression. Alexia's exceptional customer service stood out – she took the time to answer my questions thoroughly and offered three affordable options. Her expertise and friendly demeanor made me feel at ease. I'm looking forward to my next visit and enjoying the warm, welcoming atmosphere 😊😊😊.the friendly strangers are the best 😀
Went to the store this morning and it was amazing, as I walked inside, my first time at this location I could feel the welcoming of beautiful balloons, cupcakes, cookies, snacks and water it was lovingly. Great job Alexia and friendly Stranger I will definitely return again.
I had to come and leave an amazing review for this spot. It definitely is better than the last dispensary I had went to (I won't name names lol) the staff is very helpful, especially one really made me feel comfortable named Alexia! She advised me what was the best strand for me to grab, listened to any questions I had, and helped me not just feel like a customer. I will make this my go to store going forward
