RISE Dispensaries Erie (Lake)

Exciting new strains, growers and an enthusiastic staff. One of the best in our area!

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff.

Great people nice atmosphere

Very clean and professional!

Rise Erie Lakefront and Peach street have all the products. The whole team is great. However, the Seniors should be getting the 20% discount every day of the week just as veterans do. The Seniors need their medication during the week also and they are the ones on a fixed income, with no extra benefits. Seniors rule in Erie, Pa. and I suggest you address the problem or you may lose a lot of Seniors down the road. Peace, Bart

Rise Cannabis Lake location on 8th Street has a professional and courteous staff EXCEPT for the Rent a Cop “security guard”. Their parking lot is atrocious and I managed to park my crew cab, 8 foot bed, dually in the lines provided for parking spaces but it wasn’t good enough for the Rent a Cop. He insisted I move my vehicle and refused to allow me to enter the premises to pick up my online order. Go to Peach St if you want ample parking and to avoid the power tripping “security guard”.

Nice workers, cute place, but theres no variety in brands, the pens run out quick, and it’s too expensive for the quality of what they offer.

While I do wish Rise sold from every approved grower, I can say quality + selection is based on those companies. I’ve ‘grown’ to love the staff, their knowledge & willingness to help & learn right along with me. My only negative comment is, in retrospect, my ‘pharmacist appt’ left a LOT of info out that could’ve saved me a lot of time, money, & grief. Simply explaining at length the differences between all the products & offering cost/benefit info. I just starting using concentrates 6 months later, because I initially had no idea of the overall value. As a patient, ask tons of questions. Otherwise, every experience has been as it should & feels above n beyond at times.

Great place only thing I would like to see improvement on is the check in. It’s a little slow.

Rise is a great dispensary. They do the best they can within state regulations and offer one of the best dispensaries in the country in Erie PA. Even though they are the only dispensary in town, their pricing is fair and consistent with pricing state wide (if you don't believe me look at other menus) and they also offer a rewards program/multiple discounts. Their inventory is a reflection of a shortage state wide but they always have high quality RYTHM products. Very thankful Rise chose to come to Erie PA.

Great

Greet people, pleasant environment!

Very secure location staffed by true professionals

Fantastic Staff! Extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff. Excellent experience every time.

amazing. period.

Dispensary rarely has flower in stock that could be considered "medical" grade. Most of the flower available ranges from 9-18% THC. Slim selection of strains in stock at any given time, if not out altogether. My biggest problem and why I will no longer shop there is twice i a months time I've placed an online reservation for a product, and gotten home to find it was improperly listed on the menu. And it's BAD when it happens. First product was over 3000% weaker than listed, I hadn't cracked the seal and I called the number for the store and got routed to a call center in another state. They told me I could not return it to the store. The kid told me to take pictures of everything and email them to the manufacturer...at which point I had to remind him that this is a Rise screw up and I'm a patient, I don't get paid to fix mistakes like Rise employees. At this point he told me he'd have a manager call me from the store the following day. 2 days later I was calling to ask why I didn't get a call and the same kid said he'd send a memo that I didn't get a call that I was supposed to that day. I asked if this was the extent his power to fix my problem and he affirmed he couldn't do anything else. I finally did decide to burn off my rewards, not planning on shopping with them, I explained everything when I checked out and the kid at the counter was very sympathetic and actually refunded me my money! I figured I was new to the program, maybe I just had bad luck and after some time passed I tried shopping with them again. Maybe 3 or 4 more pickups when what do I find? The 21% flower I reserved is 15%. And there never was any 20+% flower at all. Called the store number again and enquired as to why this keeps happening to me. I got someone real honest on the line and he explained their ordering menu doesn't work right, they're aware, they tried to no avail to fix it a month ago. I was explicitly told I would continue to have these problems as long as I use the website. Unfortunately I was excited when I got home to give my birthday gift to myself a whiff, and I cracked the container open straight away. It wasn't til I went to use some of it that I noticed it was 25% weaker than what I ordered AND paid for. I figured I'd just stop up at the store since the call center gets you nowhere and see what, if any options there were. Obviously there wasn't a lot that they could do with the container opened. They did offer to throw me some store credit, I think it ended up being $10-$15 for a $60 mistake. One thing they did offer that might have helped someone else was apparently I could have exchanged the flower for wax...other than wax just fills me with anxiety. After running thru my options it seemed like the one where I lost the least money would be to just take the jar home and let it sit unused. At this point I asked for permission to just leave it with them since I knew I'd just be reminded of my frustration that day every time I saw the container, and they obliged. So that's how much this dispensary can get under your nerves. Enough to just leave the $60/8th garbage they gave you after they falsely advertised it as being decent flower. Happy birthday, self. Screw Rise.

What a peaceful and happy atmosphere. Everyone has been so friendly and helpful I love my new family!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! They are so kind and sweet. Megan is my girl and she is SO helpful for me. I used to be nervous coming in but they are so knowledgeable and patient.

My favorite place to visit. The staff are all amazing. I highly recommend

Everything was smooth.

Staffs great. the location is in a horrible place for traffic. rise tends to try and force you to buy their stuff by only supplying their stuff most of the time, and a a few of the more expensive ones so theirs doesn't look as expensive. which is over dried, over trimmed, over hyped, and extremely overpriced.

great place, professionally done and everyone is super nice!
