Columbia Care - Wilkes-Barre

The prices at this place are truly outrageous. They refuse to post prices, not that it matters anyway most of their 1/8ths are going to be $55.00 and their cartridges are going to be $60.00 and occasionally $50.00, which is downright insanity. I drive all the way to Allentown to a dispensary that posts their prices every day so I know exactly how much money to bring. I won’t pay more than 40.00 for 1/8ths, period. It’s 2019 in America, no one should have to. The dispensary in Allentown sells 1/8ths for $37.00, and 500mg cartridges for $40.00. This place has emphatically already stated to me multiple times, that they won’t carry the products available at that price point, so I will never shop here on a regular basis, period. Why would I ever spend $50.00 or more for an 1/8 in 2019. Really sad that they even get away with charging that to sick people and folks with disabilities, especially in NEPA where wages aren’t the greatest.

LOVE this place. For this who complain about price.. move to California. PA just legalized this less than a year ago, give it some time. There are plenty of cheaper things that last longer than an 8th. I was told they’re not legally supposed to list prices, education is key here people. Don’t want to see my favorite place get shut down. Any issues with products, I brought up with the growers. This place is wonderful with VERY knowledgeable and sweet staff members. HIGHly recommend.

Please refrain from pretending to know things when you actually don’t. Nothing is more insulting than having employees tell you completely inaccurate information and hearing them reiterate the same information to fellow patients. You are giving advice that can be totally detrimental, if not harmful, to people. I’d love to tell you to simply ask a manager but they seem to be as naive to this entire industry just as their newest budtender. Hearing management down talk other local dispensaries was a major turn off as well being that they are who is supposed to set an example for other employees. Rushed sales, employees who lack knowledge & passion, management who fosters such an environment; this is feeling more like a fast food restaurant than a professional medical marijuana dispensary.

Really knowledgeable and helpful staff! Cheaper than another local dispensary.

Second visit here. I am still extremely new to this market. I came back to CC on 4/20, as did a lot of other people. I was extremely lucky to be in line behind another customer, Matt, who struck up conversation with me, which lead to me learning a great deal about product (I only wish I would have gotten his information for further advice!). When my turn came, I was waited on by Jenn. In a word "Wow"! She was beyond helpful! Even though the place was busy, she did not rush me and took time to listen to me and explain things to me and then help me choose product to best suit my needs. When Matt was done making his purchase, he even stopped over to rave about how awesome Jenn was and that I was in great hands! I just can't say enough good about Columbia Care in Wilkes Barre!

It's clean, modern, and the staff is super nice and very knowledgeable. The selection is always huge and the emails are really helpful so I know what's new in stock.

the best out of the 2 (Scranton) I have to say when it comes to variety.. both business have excellent staff & professional!!

Made a reservation and got confirmation of price, product, location, and time of pick up. When I arrived, the price of the product had gone up. I explained that I had made a reservation and had a product reserved and the price is in the reservation. They confirmed all of this, but told me they could not honor the reservation?! The budtender told me that the manager would be the only one who could honor the price guaranteed. I asked for the manager because what is the point of the reservation if they won't honor what they have promised. The manager, Joe, spoke with me and told me that if you read the legal print on the website, somewhere it says they don't have to honor their reservations. I explained that it may be legal, but it was unethical. Joe was smug and told me he didn't have to honor the reservation, so he won't. This place is dishonest. There are better dispensaries around. And Joe is toad.

Great staff and selection. Really nice storefront. I highly recommend this dispensary. Will be visiting again (often)!

This place is fantastic!!!! Best place in town. Cheaper than the other dispensary in the area. Will be shopping nowhere else.

Super dispensary! My first visit and I was pleasantly surprised, from the guard at the door to the bud tenders, all employees were pleasant. I wish I caught the girl's name who waited on me as she deserves kudos for kindness, compassion and knowledge. The place is clean, bright and well-stocked. The prices are fair compared to the "other" Luzerne County dispensary that I felt was gouging as the only game in town. I drive almost an hour to get here because PA. has so few dispensaries in other counties. Please keep expanding Columbia Care, we need you in Columbia, Schuylkill or Carbon, etc....

great staff..pricing is cheaper than other dispensaries in the area.

Love this place

Right off the bat let me just say this is my favorite local dispensary. That being said I'll base this off my very first visit on the day they opened... The staff was very very polite and friendly. The free cookies where off the chain, white macadamia nut 🤯. The decor is very modern meets rustic, I dig it alot. The multiple TV screens used to show menus makes the whole experience a loot easier!!! Love it! Every purchase is double checked by another staff member which is awesome! They are very knowledgeable in everything you could think of. If your in the area I highly recommend stopping by and saying hi to the staff at CC of WB. tell them BIG SMOKE sent ya!

very knowledgeable friendly staff, who bend over to help

great service and selection

Zakk and the staff are great. Like hanging w my buddies.

Very nice informative and caring staff

Wow, that's all I can say lol, ask and Ye shall receive, thanks guy's, I have to retract my last comment, yes I know it's mostly the state and growers that usually put kinks in your business, just wasn't sure there for a couple but nice comeback, 80+ strains of Flower, Moonrocks, and even that good Cresco Flower back in, most Disps out west don't have as big of a menu, two big thumbs way up my friends, see ya's soon, keep on keepin on.

Highly recommend, check them out. Staff very knowledgeable and friendly. Inside nice warm welcome big layout. Staff you get to know by first names basis, always had a great experience here.

Very friendly, it was user friendly they have a great selection as well.. can't ask for much more!!

love this store i am a patient and cant say how much i like coming here! everyone from the security to the staff is so relaxing, every person there is awesome and makes me feel comfortable and thats important to me!! wouldn't go anywhere else for my mmj!! absolutely great people in my book and i am a peculiar person..thank you CC!!

Great dispensary. Employees are extremely knowledgeable and are not pushy. I met with the pharmacist on my first visit and she provided excellent recommendations for my conditions. Great variety of products that should cater to anyone’s needs. Everyone is extremely friendly!

This is my go to dispensary. Their pricing is great on flower and patient care advocates (budtenders) are always friendly and, more importantly, HELPFUL. I hate feeling rushed as I pick out my medicine and that just doesn't happen at Columbia Care. The atmosphere is great with a selection of product examples for newer patients and a comfortable waiting area that, as of yet, I have never had to use. 5 minutes was the longest I have ever waited before being called to the counter. I have been given Boveda packs without having to ask, and if you're buying flower you already know this is awesome. Good vibes.
