Nice people, gorgeous space. The budtenders are not the most informed. My main concern is their product. I’ve bought several SN3 cartridges which they heavily discounted saying they were phasing out the components. No one ever disclosed that they’ve had problems w clogging, leaking, or flat out swallowing cannabis gel in your mouth. I tried to return some clearly visibly dysfunctional ones and they said no. They said they’ve disclosed this problem when I purchased them. I can assure you no one ever said disclosed that on multiple purchase dates. Oh, but they had a solution - they offered me some plastic toothpicks. Lol. Guess what? You just lost a customer. I won’t ever put your cartridges to my mouth again. When I explained that I swallowed the gelatinous stuff on several occasions, their answer was “it looks like you used most of the cartridges.” Yea, sir manager, I ate them for dinner…. Unexpectedly.

Super nice homey atmosphere set in an old house w a big parking lot and plenty of street parking. I was honestly a bit confused which buttons to press at the door, but I’m thinking that’s just me. Fortunately, a kind, friendly man came along and helped. Someone inside said he was one of the owners. Ha. And ha. The basics were really as simple as ringing a bell and holding your med card up to the tiny camera before they unlatched it. Fascinating and ridiculous I know. But I guess I’ve been used to low-tech dispensaries w outdoor security. I like this idea. First time visit paperwork was easy. Comfortable waiting room. I noticed it seemed very wheelchair accessible, which I always respect. They offered water, hot cocoa lol. Just sayin. Loved my budtender, Super Savie, well versed and easy going. Product variety is very good. Not overwhelming yet substantive. From a med standpoint, I look mostly for deoxycarbolated gels and additive free / pure distillate cartridges. I’m less excited about bud; it’s abundant. However they definitely have a decent bud list. Today, for a quick sampling, I picked up a distillate cartridge “2:1 “clementine THC:CBD” and one of their indica deoxycarbolated gels for sleeping “Fade.” It was pretty cool to hear that none of their cartridges contain PEG/PG polyethylene glycol/propylene glycols Please, everyone, pay attention to this simple and important fact: watch what your cartridges are cut with. There are no laws requiring companies to disclose additives so it’s best to stick w CO2 distillate / additive free. Some people like the terpenes added back in and it’s cheaper. I stick w good old fashioned distillate. Anyways, I love the mouthpiece on the pen! I expected it to feel clunky because it’s larger than I’m used to and plastic (not ATG’s metal) but it’s very comfortable. The taste is smooth and clean with a nice clean smoke and a steady energy boost w some pain relief. Great blend for my medical needs which include small fiber neuropathy, headaches and muscle spasms. Revolutionary also has a nice quality “applicator,” as they call it. Other dispensaries call it a syringe. Their applicator is cool because it’s short and stubby, making it easy to carry discreetly. I have another one from a different dispensary about 5 inches.omg. Definitely not safe in the pocket. I’ll be checking it out results tonight but the dispenser is gorgeous. The taste is exactly what I was seeking. Looking forward to returning!

I’m extremely disappointed w the product at this location. Several of the people who work there are very kind and well informed but since they switched over to recreational, things have changed. First, and most importantly, the product for my needs stinks. Second, their knowledge is variable and their stock has been very low since they went recreational. Ive been a medical patient for a few years and have been fairly loyal to ATG. Yet, as a medically disabled person, requiring multiple visits for returns for defective products, I’ve had enough. It’s not easy for me to organize a visit nor sit in the car for awhile, so returning a week later or going days w out my medicine because of their product failure is incredibly inconvenient. Every single product I’ve purchased recently has been defective. The dabaratus pen springs are stuck and don’t work to dispense my medicine - oh but they are out of stock of the product to exchange and won’t refund it. I tend to buy mainly craft cartridges from them aka PEG free. ATG’s are more expensive than other providers in the region but it seemed like they had a better product for awhile. Not so. The last few CBD/cannatonic “craft” cartridges have been a bust and didn’t dispense medicine. The medicine looked like it was frozen inside and yes I know how to store and properly care for my stuff. We’re talking about a $100 cartridge. The medicine tasted like junk and they gave me a $60 credit back because I had used some of it. Yea , I did use some of it because I kept trying to relieve my pain. The manager told me they figured out the problem and redesigned it. Good for them. Ive also purchased several of their same craft PEG-free cartridges in Sativa, which seeped gel like substances out of the mouth piece into my mouth and theoretically my lungs. Again, they admitted this was a known defect and they said they redesigned them. Take your $h07 off the shelves when you know there’s been a manufacturing people! Medicine, my ass.
