Crazy location

My favorite shop in the state. The staff are the best I've dealt with! I don't shop anywhere else!

little out of the way may be hard to find if driving but since i was on foot it was not too hard to find.

This is my new favorite store! I came in after work, and the staff helped me pick out the best indica they had to help me relax. Every store should be this nice and clean! Their prices are so low, I told my dealer about them...

Nice little location tucked away in totem lake. Clerks are very knowledgeable and welcoming with a relaxing atmosphere.

I have already reviewed this shop. Just adding a comment on the review by JamesBongDoubleO420, who implies this place sells "dirt weed" and "wet bud". I have purchased 5 strains from Mary Jane so far. All were excellent, and I salute the growers.

Nothing bad to say about this place. Great service, knowledgeable staff, quality products at fair prices. But beware, you will be turned away at first sight of a vertical drivers license or ID. When confronted on this new policy, it new or staff member, very abruptly told me "I'm not sure that's what the owner wants" after speaking with the owner, it was confirmed and my speculations answered. Apparently the liquor board decided to single them out on this one. After digging around and making some calls, it seems to be the only shop applying this new code. Otherwise, one of the best places for all your marijuana needs. Thanks again so much Sierra for your professionalism, not just giving the "that's the way it is SORRY" speech. I really love your store and staff. I just wish there could have been a way, as to educate on the new policy, without turning away a loyal customer who's commute to your location is unknown.
Thanks again so much guys.
I just can't see myself going through the trouble to update my license five years early, specifically for your store.
Otherwise I genuinely hope to see you all soon.

Was so impressed with customer service. At a busy lunch time, they were prepared to spend time answering all my questions and I ended up with brilliant stuff both for pain relief and for fun

Best location ever. No strip mall parking. The location is private so no non-tokers to look at. Two lights from 405-takes two minuets-
They have the best staff I have run into and plenty of product..
Hey they sell shake!

I used to come here weekly, the location was good and prices were ok. Then I bought a cartridge from them that didn't work. After getting the run around for a week as to when the manager would be in to deal with it, they replaced the cartridge. That cartridge didn't work either, and I immediately went back in. A staff member came out to check my battery, how I was using it, and to test it with his own battery - it didn't work.
At this point there was nothing they could do about it but email the company to get a replacement. Six months later, no word, no refund (not allowed to they said), no replacement. I refuse to go back.

I never leave reviews, but the experience I have had every time I come into this shop is amazing. I've been in five times as of today.
Helpful, and knowledgeable staff with a mom and pop vibe makes for a rather inviting experience. The prices are really great and quality is definitely in the prices. You'll always get what you pay for.
Today, I got a new glass peice, and a two new strains to try out. Thanks for providing such a great little shop!

I shop around when I move to a new area and after visiting about half of a dozen stores in the area this one by far is the best. They carry "Dynamic Harvest" products too, hands down best of the best.

Same dope as the other stores, just cheaper. Period.

I first started coming here shortly after launch. The selection was sparse at the beginning, but quickly expanded and diversified. I was driving ~25 minutes to buy, and that's now ~15. There is a closer store to me but prices are >50% higher and don't include sales tax. The price listed on the product should be the price out the door, like it is at Mary Jane. Elsewhere that seems more often to be the exception than the rule. But even if sales tax was not factored in, the prices at Mary Jane would still be the best around. They've eeked up a smidge and the happy hour deals are not as good as they were at launch, but things like $5/g or $15/2g were presumably done at a loss to introduce themselves to the area and establish a new clientele. It got me in the door! I expect those type of deals will return as the market evolves. That said, their happy hours are much longer and accessible; their deals are always listed online so you don't have to call or wander in to see. They update their menu daily, often several times per day. Vaping cartridges don't last long for me compared to flower, so I'll wait for those prices to come down, but the prices here got me off the fence to give it a try. I haven't tried any other concentrates yet here.
They are toeing the line of the law here; don't come asking for medical advice, that's illegal for i-502 stores. Ask for a CBD strain or whether indica or sativa is better for sleeping. Don't ask "What will cure my insomnia?" They'll check your ID every time, even when they recognize your face and remember your name. Step out the door to answer that phone call? You'll have to show your ID again, that's just them following the law. These little details are reassuring.
Thanks Mary Jane! I'm done with the black market, because, sure, I could get it a little cheaper, but I'm no longer taking the chance of being committed to a half ounce of meh of unknown origin. I get to try a little of everything, and I know much more about how, when, and where it was harvested.

nice shop like that tax is included

Construction of the ramp is over, and Mary Jane is open again. And boy, what a ramp it is... one you are done snaking your way up to the store, you'll find a small room setup, maybe a little bigger in size than Herbal Nation, but it is elegant inside with nicely laid out selection.
The budtender was pretty cool and knowledgeable about the product. Most importantly, prices are great - you can't really beat beautiful Cannasol 4G jars for $40 out the door.
Biggest downside is an apparent total lack of parking? But this store is one to watch, as they could finally be an Eastside store with good pricing on the more "premium" brands.

location was a little difficult to find in the dark, but the building was really nice and the atmosphere inside made up for it tenfold

For reference, I've been licensed for medical marijuana since 2011, and I have vaporized bud daily since then as part of my medical treatment, which has led to a higher than preferred tolerance to my medication. I've visited just about every pot shop on the Eastside, and Mary Jane is by far superior. They offer the lowest prices while still including taxes in those prices and their products are of the highest quality and potency. If you want the biggest bang for your buck, I highly recommend Mary Jane. I've visited a few times already, and the Budtenders are always very friendly and helpful. My favorite strain from them so far is the Purple Panda, which I bought on a whim and was very surprised by its effectiveness. I look forward to frequenting their shop more in the near future.
