Very unfriendly. Very, very, unfriendly. I am used to a warm welcome from compassionate staff, my experience here was very different from other dispensaries. 5 parking spots for patients. There is no sign or storefront obvious from the street. A guard asked me if I was looking for cornerstone, then escorted me into a small waiting room. Ibwas briskly asked for my paperwork and id twice, then informed multiple times I should bring more than my two original signed prescriptions in future. I have a third which I keep seperate in case I lose my purse. I read and reread the extensive paperwork, which was mstly about cornerstone's policies such as being polite to their neighbors, not opening products anywhere near their location, not parking anywhere in the residential area nearby etc. Cornerstone charges strange "fees" and taxes, adds 3% for some reason and boasts how lucky they are to be open during the hours I patronized them. I felt like a criminal during the entire process and let them know candidly I would not be returning. I was repeatedly told that I was being given a free consultation by attempting to shop at cornerstone. The vibe was sketchy and shady, the staff were rude and unbecoming, the products were mysteriously overpriced. I wish I had never entered this collective. I prefer to spend my money at businesses where the employees are considerate.

Everything about this collective is exactly how I thought a collective should operate. Professional, knowledgeable, clean. Didn't feel like a seedy vape shop one bit, like other places can. Less concerned with selling you product than they are about making sure you get what you need and knowing what you're getting. Having walked into other dispensaries with a ton of questions and getting a glassy eyed stare with a point to a random top shelf indica to solve all my problems, Cornerstone was such a nice change. The variety of products are amazing and the focus on care and wellness makes it so much classier than other dispensaries in the area.
It is a bit pricier, but it's worth it. The quality of product is top notch, and the service is worth it by itself.
If you have actual questions and really want to know what you're getting then this is the place that is going to legitimately help you out.

Cornerstone is the cleanest and most professional collective I have ever seen. Their staff really knows their stuff. More importantly, they really seem to care about you as a patient.
Each of their strains is better than the next. I was really impressed by this place. They do not take walks in's since they are a private collective so you have to call and make an initial appointment. You won't be sorry that you did. Apparently, most of their strains aren't available anywhere else in the city. My personal recommendations are the C3, the Four Cups Ultra, the White Reclure and anything else. Wow!!! This is what every other place should aspire to be.

This is the dispensary that can change the way people view the entire MMJ system. It's honestly one of the only spots in the city that feels like a legitimate medical facility. They actually give you a consultation when you first get there to figure out the right meds for you. The high CBD strains forever changed how
I medicate, and have helped me so much.

I have been going to CRC for a couple months now and I couldn't be happier. The time they take to ensure that EVERY patient is well educated and assisted in choosing the best medication for their symptoms is invaluable to say the least. I have NEVER seen customer service in ANY dispensary with such great consistency as Cornerstone. A real GOD-send.

Unique atmosphere with genuine strains. CRC has been one of the top collectives in LA for years! Glad to see you guys back!

Been coming here for 2 years now and I love this place! Everyone is so knowledgeable and helpful.

I've picked up my meds from this clinic several times and the quality of the product and professionalism of the staff make this a comfortable and educational experience. The prices are a little more than other dispensaries but the quality of the medication on display is top notch and well worth the extra cost. For those of us that enjoy being treated like patients with legitimate medical concerns, this is the place to go.

I've been coming to these folks for my medication for a few years now and I am so thankful for them.
Their expertise as individuals and as a group is or should be industry standard. Their meds are second to none in quality and effectiveness. Their professionalism and attention to detail are what really set them apart from everyone else.
I trust these people with my well being regularly and they have never let me down. Thank you CRC!

Amazing staff, dapper doorman. Clean, minimal aesthetic. Their menu has very helpful, detailed descriptions for everything.

The bud tender who assisted me didn’t provide a lot of guidance. I asked her for clarification on a CBD product and she was very dismissive with her answer and wasn’t able to broaden my Cannabis knowledge. The selection wasn’t the greatest. They have a lot of product but it’s all out on the counter and prices are posted on a unorganized laminated piece of paper. The atmosphere and vibe is great, wish the staff and selection were on par with the vibe. Won’t be coming back.

The staff here is incredibly helpful they really know a lot about everything that they are serving and can give you a really good rundown of the things that you should get depending on what you are looking for. I got some wonderful herb while I was there. I was a little bit disappointed that they did not have many different kinds of wax or any shatters, they only carry solventless concentrates. This is not a large issue but as somebody who is especially interested in concentrates it was unfortunate. I will definitely be back to this location in the future when I am looking to get some good buds

I came to cannabis use as a middle-aged guy who had never tried weed once, but was interested in the medical benefits for my depression and insomnia.
Cornerstone was recommended by a co-worker, specifically because I didn't want to be in a place that made me feel too square or like I didn't belong.
The employees here are compassionate, intelligent, well informed, and extremely helpful. They have guided me to flowers, concentrates, and edibles that work for me, and give me the exact experience I want.
I've been to other dispensaries that feel like they're trying to be a night club or a party. That's fine for them, and I'm sure there are lots of people who don't mind that at all. For this first-time visitor who doesn't exactly feel like he's part of stoner culture, Cornerstone was the best, perfect place for me to go.
Also, they grow their own strains, so when I come across something I like (K5 and Black Triangle) I know that I can rely on it being the same strain, quality, and experience the next time I buy it there.
I trust the folks at Cornerstone, and I feel that they are a fantastic ideal for all budtenders to aspire to, especially as California welcomes recreational users into legality.

I have benefited from medical cannabis consumption for over 30 years, so I think I have a bit of experience on the subject.
Being a patient member of Cornerstone for the last eight years.
A Top Shelf collective in every sense of the word.
I think it may help others, so I'd like to address the concerns of the reviewer below, "Marygrassrootsbee”.
There is a handicapped spot right in front. If the others are full I park one block down the street.
Much like a specialist Doctor's office, the location has no sign or green cross symbol on the window because they respect the privacy of the member patients who visit.
By being very thorough with the legal paperwork and your doctor's recommendation paperwork, Cornerstone can be sure their doors stay open, by there not being any legal hiccups.
I have never encountered un-friendly people here. I have noticed that the people while working, are sober here, unlike almost all other collectives. Cornerstone takes it's responsibility to the patient very seriously. To be sure they can be of utmost help with each patient's individual medical needs.
A very small consulting fee, much like speaking with a doctor about your needs, is figured into your donation amount. That goes towards keeping the brightest and most knowledgeable people on staff. Their knowledge and experience will actually help you with your specific health concern.
Also taxes are included. Every other collective open also charge taxes. You just don't realize it because Cornerstone is the only one that itemizes the amounts on the receipt.
The medicine itself is the highest quality of any collective. You will not find better medicine, period. You get what you pay for.
You don't go into the best quality restaurant and expect Denny's prices do you?
Often organic and they take the time and care to properly dry and cure the flowers. They don't rush the process. The flower smells, flavors and potency are unsurpassed.
Most THC and CBD concentrates are made in-house and all are sovent-free, which is wonderful for patients who don't enjoy inhaling butane and other toxic gases.
They grow their own plants according to what the patient's need, not what's going to grow the fastest or make the most profit.
And they specialize in award-winning CBD cannabis varieties that are not found elsewhere.

I've been going to Cornerstone for a few years now... hands down the most personable, knowledgable, and helpful staff I've experienced! They always have a great selection and happily take the time to answer questions, etc. HIGHLY recommend!

There are other dispenceries...both private and not...none can compare to the quality, service, and atmosphere that is provided by CRC ... if you're "LUCKY" enough to call yourself a member of this extraordinary establishment ...you will never be disappointed

Been coming here for about 3 years and CC has always been consistent in having a clear menu, good selection, very nice budtenders, a clean minimalist aesthetic, respectable security...I could go on, but you get the picture. Very happy with CC as a #1 go-to.

By far the best dispensary in LA based on quality of meds, staff, and environment. I stopped going to other dispensaries after my first visit to Cornerstone.

I have been with Cornerstone since the very beginning and this place is my ONLY go-to spot. I drive from almost 70 miles away on a weekly basis - not because I have to, but because I prefer to see the variety they get on a near weekly basis, and also talk to the staff. Personally, I think the staff is what makes this place the best in LA, if not all of So Cal. ALL of them are extremely professional and friendly, and their recommendations have always been 100% on point for my needs. In addition to the wonderful people behind the scenes, the flowers and concentrates they offer are top-shelf across the board. I appreciate the fact that they know the actual genetics behind each strain they have in-house, and are educated on the effects and other aspects of the medication. Overall, I have nothing but good things to say about CRC. From the atmosphere to the meds - its all there in spades if you are a true connoisseur and really appreciate good medication.
