Harvest HOC - Tempe (Med/Rec)

Is this place beautiful and a symbol of commerical influence on the MMJ business? OH ya! But it makes you feel very special and intimate, just by walking into the doors you feel a little shut off from the staff. Everyone is dealing with people behind the desk and it almost feels like you are being stared at while you freely explore (great perk!) the inventory. After you are done, you kind of have to stressfully navigate the contious faces that you need assistance from. The staff seems uninterested and way to busy texting and talking behind there walls to help anyone. I was greeted by an person who you could describe as "unimpressed and annoyed" that she had to help anyone. I would not recommend this place for people who want to experience a dispensery for service, knowledge, and quality service/preduct.

(Smh) Bad...........so bad.........so,so bad.

Dont bother to respond to this. Your prices are a TOTAL rip off and you should be ashamed.. greed has no shame. Can you SERIOUSLY justify 21 bucks a gram..total bs. You are the reason people go to the black market. It is a shame to take advantage of patients the way you do. Little more than extortion except this is for patients meds. You are a disgrace to the industy.

charging 25 a gram should be a crime and do not say well we also have other selections because that then means you have low grade stuff for regular price come on no other state licensed charges like you do they ask no more then 17 so when you add uncle sams fee it balances out a tad making you not feel like got bent too far over..

Ok, so 1) you say that all your strains are tested unlike other dispensaries. All dispensaries are required to test all the meds period! 2) Thcv is always higher?!?! Really?!?! Wow....do your research before you make uneducated misleading statements like that please. Remember, the patients see you as the "expert" there to help them. If you are going to attempt to do so please make sure you yourself are educated. Thcv is not higher in most strains. Actually, very few strains have a thcv level high enough to even see the effects of it. Jack the Ripper from TGA is one of the highest thcv strains I have found and they will tell you that under the optimum environment and care it can reach as high as 5.5% thcv. Needless to say, the thc level is much higher. You spent a lot of money making a trendy looking place. You are charging more than anyone else in the valley, so now spend some of that on educating your workers so they don't mislead patients! I will continue to frequent my local nonprofit compassion club and would not recommend this place to anyone. Way over priced and the quality is no better, or even worse in most cases, than what i can get for a compassionate donation at the co-op.

Went in since they supply Zander with high CBD meds, or they pretend too, couldn't see or find any high cbd and low THC. Youngtown dispensary has the ac/DC aka Valentinex that's 17% cbd to 1%thc that was made for kids. No medical quality in this place just dried out Cali outdoor for top shelf prices.AZ needs more places with real meds.

Ok - so I'm finally sitting down to write a review on Harvest of Tempe because I want to give the detail it deserves. First, it is an awesome place and great to see what a dispensary actual can be...it is definitely a model of how things should run. I have been there twice now and each time was pleasant experience. I walked up to the door and before I could even pull the handle someone was there opening it up and Welcoming me. I walked into a small waiting area with a couple windows, filled out some simple paperwork/check-in, they got me in the system and let me in past the security door to go into the main lobby area. They have LCDs all around showing you what is on the menu. They have a wall with all the jars of meds they have - you are able to pick them up, open them, smell, touch, they even have a little flashlight so you can see all those crystals :) After I decided what I wanted I went over to a wall that looks very much like a bank teller with security glass - they processed the transaction painlessly and I was on my way with some Super Lemon Haze & Purple Haze. Services received is the best in the industry I have seen out here in AZ. Atmosphere is one of the best as well since it is in a nice neighborhood and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Now, as for the meds they were good, potency was good but not what I was expecting for the price. They need to be cured a little longer and possible flushed better to get that good taste and some better potency. I am glad to see they recently lowered the prices a bit but $55-$65 an eight is still too much...there are stronger, better tasting meds in the area for less. I'm really rooting for Harvest of Tempe but hope to see pricing going down and quality go up on the flowers.

I made my first visit to The Harvest. It's a clean, little place but I'm not sure it is for everybody. I'm older and being new probably didn't help make things go more smoothly. I was bounced around a little and wasn't sure what was happening. I left knowing very little more then when I walked in.

Picked up an eighth of the LA OG and an eighth of Evil Berry. $122 after taxes for the quarter. The Evil Berry is really great, and the display sample of LA OG looked and smelled just as good but was a huge disappointment. ALL of their strains (like all AZ dispensaries, it seems) show the effects of a late flower herm, some worse than others, but both of these samples looked good. When I opened my eighth of LA OG I realized the buds I got were nothing like the sample at all. To start with these buds were completely ravished by the herm - every single calyx is impregnated with a tiny immature "seedling" (for lack of a better term). The buds in this crappy "premium" eighth are obviously the same strain as the sample but from a different plant or lower down on the plant where the buds turned out much much worse. I immediately brought it back within minutes of walking out the door and asked to exchange it for more of the Evil Berry instead. At first the hot girl at the counter checked with someone else and then told me to go ahead and go back to the window where they'd exchange it no problem. But then on my way back there someone else stopped me and gave me some BS about how he couldn't let me return it opened because then they could get shut down by the state for violating health regulations! If you read the reviews, all the dispensaries INCLUDING HARVEST encourage people to come back with whatever product they were unhappy with, some dispensaries even say they'll take it back but others say they'll "make it right" (whatever that means). Obviously harvest is full of crap when they say that because they told me tough luck and let me walk out the door with garbage meds that I was not happy with, and didn't offer ANYTHING to try and "make it right."

I have given so many strains a chance at harvest and ALL have been a complete joke. You can tell just by reading the reviews they post on themselves. Dont worry about finding better meds since EVERYWHERE you go will have something better than this place.

It's hit or miss with Harvest. Like most of the dispensaries in AZ, the selection is limited and the prices too high. And like most places, they won't show proof of lab testing.

Outrageous price for sub par meds.

prices are disgusting.

Top notch. Went there today and was not disappointed in the least....Starting with Steve greeting you at the front door, to Kyle who is there to answer an questions you might have, every person in there is pleasant to deal with. FINALLY, a quality, legal place near Ahwatukee! The Pineapple Train Wreck is amazing and the Super Lemon Haze is bomb as it always seems to be. (My only opinion is, for the $ of the premium...it should come with the little glass jar.....) Thanks again guys!

Awful, plz don't waste your time, smells of hay and it's Insanely overpriced..

I was driving through this part of town today and made a point of it try it. I am usually in the north...that is where I will stay. Mediocre medication along with sub par customer service. If you can't grow 5 strains well, you definitely can't grow 25 strains well. Start small and build up, coming from WA state I am a bit spoiled but 350$ for an ounce of hay smelling swap isn't how you build a patient base. I will stop back in a couple months!

one person can ruin a TEAM....won't be back here..

they delete my negative reviews, this place is trash. dont waste your time

They have one medical line open compared to several for recreation. The rec line cleared out before the medical line and the budtender went on break instead of helping medical They did not care that I had an online order, just ended up in the same single slow medical line. They care more about profits than patients.

Saw this pop up on Leafly recently and just viewing the pics was super stoked to stop by. Harvest rivals even the best dispensaries in California, yes it's that good. A shining light in the sea of questionable locations around Phoenix. This is the model that everyone should strive for, a clean, comfortable, and safe environment to get your medicine. Support these guys, they are legitimizing the industry.

I came here based on the other reviews. I knew absolutely NOTHING, and needed a ton of help in figuring out what to get. The staff is laid-back, professional, and knowledgable. They let me take all the time I needed and answered every one of my questions. They never made me feel like I was bothering them, or that I should already know this information. They didn't rush me, and made sure they understood what I was looking for before offering any suggestions. The staff walked me through the entire process and made it simple and easy for me. The level of service here is outstanding, and the facility is really nice. I will definitely be back.

Way overpriced for the quality of meds! There are a lot better places in Tempe to go.

Felt like a bad fast food experience. I was not impressed with the environment or the individual that "helped" me. 😔

This is the nightmare of all med shops, and this is the perfect example of what happens when corporations take over industries. The prices go up, the quality goes down, customer service goes away and if you don’t like it, tough luck. I’m a (would have been) first time customer, despite everyone that I know with a card warning me not to use this particular company, they call it “the Walmart of weed stores” they advertised my favorite strain for sleep, so it seemed worth the dice roll. Friends warned me that their inventory doesn’t match what the websites say, so I called ahead to make sure, and they verified that the strain I wanted is in stock. I knew my drive was going to be close to an hour one way (the 10 East is closed all weekend for construction, making it twice the length as normal) I arrive, fill out paperwork, and stand in a line that was more of a free for all. What is the point of letting so many patients go to the back while others still haven’t checked out? Especially when there’s only 2 budtenders, and the one I had had limited knowledge of product at best. And like I was told by my friends, drum roll please.....they didn’t have my strain. The strain they verified having an hour before. Then of course comes the salt in the wound, they try upselling me on another strain, and at double the quantity (and double the price) of what I came in for. They weren’t even knowledgeable enough to try veering me to a similar strain that gives similar results, and this wasn’t just one employee who lacked this basic cannabis knowledge. Also, everything that I saw here was prepackaged, meaning you can’t see or smell what you’re getting before you buy, the shop layout is terrible, very unorganized. The jars the left contain older medicine because there was very little, if any aroma. At least switch them out once in a while! The gal at the counter didn’t know which strains did what. I came for a specific sleep med (heavy indica) and their 50-50 hybrids, especially at much lower THC levels aren’t going to give the patient the desired result. The employees either don’t know cannabis or they don’t care, and were just trying to get another sale. Almost 2 hours in the car and 20 minutes in the shop only to arrive back home without medicine. Zero stars is too generous. At least one of their employees apologized to me, which is more that what other reviewers are saying about their nightmare experiences with this place. My friends were right, these new corporate shops are the worst, avoid Curaleaf too, and this one felt like the Disneyland of green pharmacies, and this is not a compliment in any way.
