These retail owners don’t mess around when it comes to beautiful dispensary design and a wide range of products to choose from. If you can take some time away from the beach, check out these 5 must-see cannabis dispensaries in San Diego.
1. UrbnLeaf
Touting themselves as a new standard in cannabis and offering San Diego three prime locations to choose from, UrbnLeaf certainly sets the bar high. Their upscale design includes an incredibly well-lit shop with sleek displays and digital signage. Aside from just being pretty, they aim to get to know their local community through vendor partnerships and various events at their cannabis retail operation.
2. Golden State Greens (PLPCC)
Music events, celebrity sightings, and vendor demos are only part of what makes Golden State Greens so appealing to cannabis consumers. They’ve also designed their shop exceptionally well, focusing on how their store layout affects the flow of customers and the service they are able to provide. Offering one of the largest selections of cannabis products in San Diego, it’s a destination you have to see to believe.
3. Apothekare
Curved and wood-paneled walls make you feel like you just stepped into a futuristic spaceship, but the staff at Apothekare are anything but alien. You’ll feel like a part of the crew from the moment you walk in, as they engage each cannabis consumer like an old friend. Having a solid grasp on their retail promotions and giveaways, Apothekare bestows every new shopper with a gift bag, a free pre-roll, and more.
4. Southwest Patient Group
The creative thinkers at Southwest Patient Group have a huge – 7,000 square feet to be exact – retail operation. Rather than filling their shop with countless display shelves, owners decided to dedicate the additional square footage to educating customers via digital signage and onsite events with vendors. On your first visit, we highly recommend a tour with one of their friendly staff members.
5. The Healing Center San Diego
Square footage is a must-have for many entrepreneurs, expect for The Health Center San Diego, who decided to think small at their cannabis dispensary. Their retail shop, which is decorated in light colors to keep a bright and airy feel is perfect for cannabis consumers looking for an intimate shopping experience.
