Weekly/Bi-weekly customer. Pricing, product, service all top notch. Store is easy to get to, clean, organized, and smells great.
Whatever your budget or preference they got you covered. I’ve only purchased flower from here. Always something new on the menu every week. The quality at every price level is fantastic.
Staff is as amped about the product as you are. Passionate, knowledgeable, experienced, kind.
All in all BBD is killing the game right now. And we’re all winners.

Went to BBD on 8/29/23 for some indica, picked up a half oz of Blue Cheese for $50 and went home, upon opening the bag and smelling I was greeted by an unmistakable smell of moldy weed. Took it back to get a replacement and they refused and tried to tell me that's how it smells?? Now I've been growing this stuff longer than they have been alive and have weed in my freezer thats 3 years old and still taste great. Improperly packaged and stored weed causes mold plain and simple. I will never go back and advise others to do the same.

T and Mick are real down to earth people who will answer whatever questions you may have. I been too all the bud shops in a 40 mile radius and they are the best so I highly recommend!

Mick was a big help! Place is low pressure, chill, with great staff, and very high quality products.

I usually go here to get a decent half oz for fifty dollars. Lately the fifty dollar half oz are absolutely terrible. Definitely shouldn’t be charging that much for some leafy BROWN nasty. Looks like it would give you a headache. Honestly disappointing. They used to be about hooking people up but now it feels like y’all are just ripping people off unless you have a personal relationship. Not to mention the heavy set lady who sounds like she eats cigarettes for breakfast is always miserable and gives everyone smug looks. Not really a place I recommend anymore.

2 Toke Tish was great! I didn’t know much about weed but she was was able to help select products that were 🔥…definitely coming back!

I’m a regular customer of Jan’s, and was so excited when BBD finally opened there! Been into the shop several times now to purchase flower, edibles, and also to experiment with new strains, as I continue to educate myself on what works best for me, when considering both the recreational and medicinal benefits which I seek in my personal use. Everyone has always been very friendly and helpful here, but particularly this last time, with Tashina, Marvin, and Jr. I brought a friend- and a first-timer- this last visit, and they not only graciously answered all of her questions, but also gave her some freebies, for mentioning that I showed her their website on Leafly! I appreciate that the menu is a available to help us research strains, and to know what we’re buying, before purchase. The quality is really good here, and the prices are fair. I’ve been purchasing exclusively from BBD for about a year now, and am a very happy customer, in so many ways LOL. Anyway, keep up the good work, BBD, and you’ll keep a customer in me!

I waited till I could make a thorough review (slightly over due) but this is also provoked by the couple of terrible reviews recently placed. I've been going to BBD for at least 2 years, twice a month. I can't speak on things like the carts or even all the edibles but I do have strong insight on the flower and concentrates.
First, you get what you pay for. . .I mean isn't that how it should be. Let's address the damn elephant - The $50 1/2 ozs. These are PGR (Plant Growth Regulators) grown weeds, look up PGR characteristics and compare and you'll understand. Nothing else here seems to be PGR or it's not recognizable in the genetics. This kind of weed is personal choice. I see value for people who smoke many blunts per day for rec purposes, combine this flower with concentrates bang for your dollar. For medical users I do not suggest.
The $10/g, $15/g, $20/g have all been properly priced in my experience including weight pricing. Keep an eye on the weekly special $25 1/8s as these are sometimes really great values especially when you can pick up an oz of strong/tasty mid level for $150/oz
The concentrates go from low level CRC (they even had 1/8s of crumble for $30) Again YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR and IT'S PERSONAL CHOICE. Step it up and they have some straight GAS budders and I've only not had the diamonds. I suggest checking it out first if you are a dabber as consistency is always an issue in concentrates. The best concentrates in New York will be from out of state or independent producers on a small scale.
The service is C+. I've never been wronged and the couple small issues I've had were quickly resolved. All in all no dispensary on the REZ or else where in the state are all the way there. I hope this clears up some of the questions some may have, although I think it would be better for BBD to be more straight forward regarding some of this as a consumer you also have a responsibility to educate yourself. Go Bills!

Horrible weed for almost the same price as medicinal dispensaries. Literally threw money away. Spent $600 for expired joints and weed that tasted like incense and were sprayed with perfume. Couldn’t even smoke 3/4 of what I bought. :/

We went for big anniversary opening wutever and wut an amazing screw they had there, very helpful, food was amazing, gift bags, went better than I thought. I think you should do this Lil get together cookout thing again, real soon. We found this place accidentally, and it is most certainly my go to place. Love everything about this place.

Mick was very helpful and customer oriented. The smoke for my ride home was good. Prices are fair. Highly recommend!!! Stop in ask for Mick you'll get what your looking for.

I discovered BBD a couple months ago and I will never go anywhere else. Marvin, Jr. and Tishina are all wonderful! They take great care of all the customers and are super knowledgeable. T is absolutely amazing! He took so much time talking to me and my friend finding us the right product. The service, friendliness, knowledge and kindness make this a place that will always have my business.

First time I saw the building I was sooo excited, I couldn't decide what I should get 1st. Gas, cigs or flower. Great people and very knowledgeable. I enjoy going there. Thanks Basom Bud Depot for making me so happy..See you soon..

I recently made my second visit to the BBD because they show some strains on Leafly I was interested in - white widow and Chemdawg. Just tried the Chemdawg and woowee, that is some good herb. The people are chill and the quality and selection are top notch, which is why I usually buy more than I originally intended. Make the trip to the Bud Depot, you will not be disappointed.

This is my favorite place for many reasons!
The quality of EVERYTHING they offer is top notch. ( and they have literally such a great selection of whatever you may need.
The staff is absolutely amazing, they are so helpful and always willing to help you find what you need. They go above and beyond to make sure you are walking out happy, and trust me you will🙂
I went to many dispensaries and once I came here it’s my go to, multiple times a week ! I highly recommend this place , they take such great care of their customers.
