My first trip was brief but great. The prices are all inclusive, so not waiting to hear a painful price at the end. Staff super nice. Very small store, but still a good selection, just ask and they will let you know about something or if they have it. You can also order online ahead of time to skip it this part Looking forward to going back read more

The parking situation is dismal. And francisco, the parking security outside, let someone double park. But was gonna refuse me entrance to the store for how I parked. Eight year long client, down the drain and my entire family. read more

CannaCruz - Strain Sweet Victory - Cannabis Clinics Near Me - Santa Cruz, California

Their topical cannabis cream is great for pain relief! However, the store feels claustrophobic with no windows, and it's tiny and gets crowded easily. The crowds are probably there because of the great selection and super friendly and helpful staff. read more

Nicest people ever, great product, great prices. Very knowledgeable about their products and their vendors.

It was our first time here and we received a free gram with our purchase. Our budtender was quick to greet us, had great recommendations on products as well as beaches in the area to stop at for the day. Everything was also priced well and we received great service. read more

The guard was extremely rude, their is a way to say things, but instead of saying them nicely like a person, he decided to scream at me. Please be kind, I understand you had a long day but their is way to talk to people. read more

Great daily deals and a fantastic staff! I highly recommend coming before 4 p.m. or after 6 p.m. to avoid a long wait time.

The staff are amazing and knowledgeable. Everyone gets their personalized sales rep that stays with you and answer as many questions as you wish. When you get there, you have to check in and wait to go into the sales room. Then you get one on one treatment until your purchase is completed. I've been going there for years and have never had a bad staff helping me. Even when I have problems with oil cartridges they replace it no problem. Highly recommend!! read more

Awesome selection and affordable club. Love coming here, so much better than the Bay Area's taxes too!

I had been going to KindPeoples dispensary but my last visit there did not go well. Because it did not go well and I ventured out to find a new dispensary. I CannaCruz is the bomb. The staff is incredibly friendly and it is such a warm environment to be around. It is so helpful that their prices include tax so you were not fooled into thinking you were getting the product cheaper until it's time to check out. I was able to get an eighth for $20 out the door. That is awesome. If you're a new client don't forget to ask for your pre-roll. That pre-roll had to be one of the best I have ever had! Now that I am living in Santa Cruz I am really excited that I have found my home dispensary. Keep doing a great job everyone! read more

man I gotta say this was my go to spot because they have or had shall I say good customer service today I went to pick up an order they had their usual goodies that they'll put out for a 1 for certain items and today was no different. I went in to pick up my order only to find out they where out that's ok no biggie asked if they could substitute it and then they end up trying to charge me full price idk it might seem trivial to others but how are you gonna sit there tell me you're gladly substituting the item so that I could still get it and yet you try to charge me full price. idk I definitely won't be coming here like before theres more clubs but I gotta say it's a little d and disappointing. read more

I love this place! They have great prices on everything and great deals. You get a deal with your first purchase. Last time we got a spliff for $1 that usually sells for $12, it was really good too. They have all different kinds of products and their prices are the best. They are also very nice. My favorite dispensary in Santa Cruz. read more

CannaCruz - Fire!!! - Cannabis Clinics Near Me - Santa Cruz, California

all hail cannacruz, best dispo in town. the prices, quality, and friendly & knowledgeable staff can't be beat!

Julia was so helpful as this was my very first curiosity adventure to a real live cannabis shop. First you see a gigantic security guard dressed in a black T-shirt with white security guard letters at the entrance. That is a good sign that everyone is safe and protected. Then you go in and register with your ID which is only for their own records. I was good with that because I understand the need to know who their customers are. We were escorted through a secure door into a fantasy room. You are allowed to take photos of the products as long as you do not take photos of people. That's a no brainer. Not being familiar with a lot of the things I asked a lot of questions and Julia was so helpful and didn't "roll her eyes" because I'm an older woman and a newbie. Cookies and candy and lots of different kinds of marijuana buds from different grow areas. It was absolutely fascinating. They have CBD which is great for pain and anxiety without any THC drug high. And they have CBD with a small amount of THC and then of course they have the full THC. I really enjoyed learning about this industry. I truly think that CBD can be extremely helpful for a lot of people facing pain, sleepless nights, or simple anxiety. Parking is easy and Costco is nearby. If you are curious it is very simple to go in and they make you feel very welcome and at home and I did not feel intimidated or weird at all. The only thing that was shocking was they charge 30% sales tax. Part of it is called an excise tax. I'm sure California is making a ton of money. read more

Never had a bad experience here. Very friendly staff, organized, professional, customer oriented, and affordable. Favorite dispensary in Santa Cruz by far. read more

This place is so dope - only dispensary I go to even with the new outlet in capitola this place still beats it with consistent quality and you can guarantee to walk out happy each time. Prices include tax so you most likely will even walk out paying less than expected if you have a medical card (they take 10% off prices for you). They also started doing the punch cards too, so after 6 purchases you get 20% off. read more

For my first trip to a dispensary, I must say I'm so impressed and so happy I went to CannaCruz. The entire staff made me feel so comfortable, my budtender was amazingly patient with me, never in a rush as she answered my questions and helped me select what I came there for. I must add everything worked to my expectations, and that's rarity in most things bought and sold! When I return to Santa Cruz, I now know what dispensary I'm going to. Highly recommended read more

CannaCruz - Cannabis Clinics Near Me - Santa Cruz, California

Location is honestly kind of sketch. Not a huge fan of the feeling of having so many questionable characters around when my car is parked there. That's the other thing, I know it's not their fault but the parking is either a challenge to try and get it into the small lot or risk the Costco traffic scraping your car on the street. Selection is okay and I guess the redeeming factor is that they have lower end stuff if youre broke. But idk there's places like the Hook or reef side or even curbstone out in Felton that I feel just has a better vibe. read more

Chaz and Nick & Layla thank you sooo sooo much!!! You guys are amazing people!!! I love coming here! Definitely a regular here and can't wait to come back! Thank you guys for your great service and kindness. That's hard to come around and we really appreciate you all!! read more

First time here and I had a great time. The Tax was already included in the cost and everyone was super nice and down to earth. I got my first pre roll for $1 which is a major slay. Live laugh Love 420 baby. read more

I have gone to this dispensary several times now and after my visits I am always pleased. The staff make consistently excellent recommendations. One of the best dispensaries in town. read more

it was our first time here and it was a wonderful experience! the workers noticed that it was my bf's birthday and a freebie was included which is very appreciated. prices were really great and they had really good deals too (plus cool stickers!) Analexis was our budtender and she was so so sweet & really helpful! we definitely plan on coming back when we visit Santa Cruz again :) read more

Found this place through yelp and went to visit while on my trip this thanksgiving weekend. Honestly impressed by the customer service that was offered! They were fantastic!! Although the overall store was tiny, they did have a great selection to choose from. I goofed up and forgot to bring cash but thank god they have an ATM in there. (it is VERY slow so just be patient) Overall, I would definitely visit this place again when I'm back in town! read more

Normally this is my go to spot. I am a frequent shopper and go here for my medical cannabis. I spend upwards of 500 dollars a week here. I'm usually in and out with what I need. They've got a good selection but NO MENU it's all scattered around by price range which makes it really weird since some brands are totally over priced while others aren't. So you're basically at their mercy if you don't know what you want already of have an idea of what brands are producing what level of product. they carry a few brands that I trust. But lately I've had the worst experiences there. None of the bud tenders know anything about any of the strains, products, or medicinal benefits of anything for sale. You can't ask about the genetics of 90% of the flower, and most of the time they will just try to push their in-house brand despite what you are looking for. I had purchased a $65 1/8 from them a few weeks back, and the bud tender claimed that it's great and that everyone loves it and I'll enjoy it too! When I got home I ground up a 1/2 gram bud of it , to find 8-9 seeds in just that little half gram of the 3 1/2 in the jar. I recorded a video of me grinding up the rest of the jar to show that the seeds came directly from the jar. The next time I came back in, i brought it with me as well as the seeds in a little bag. I mentioned how I bought this jar for $65 and it was highly recommended but when I tried to use it I couldn't. It was FULL OF SEEDS and that I couldn't smoke it because of that. You're not supposed to smoke seeds at all. Instead of reimbursement, the bud tender accused me of placing the seeds in there to try to manipulate them. Why would I be manipulating 1 single 1/8 of flower when I come in every day of the week to buy stuff? I'm a paying loyal customer. When I pay more than $60 for 3.5 grams of bud I expect it to AMAZING Especially when it's being recommended. Instead, it turned out to be something I couldn't even use , and when I went to ask about it I was laughed out of the door. And offered to buy ANOTHER 1/8 for 10% off. Why would I trust the same person to recommend me something else when I already paid for something I couldn't smoke? Basically I paid double for the next 1/8 I bought. The last time I was in, I went with a friend and we were meeting with separate bud tenders at the same time so I could over hear his purchase while I was doing mine. I heard the bud tender being super rude and passive aggressive towards him. Instead of asking what kind of flower he's interested in strain wise , brand wise , etc he goes directly to "well how much you tryna spend" What kind of question is that? How does that help get you an accurate product. It's all about the profit now and 0 about being professional, caring about the customer, and supplying great product. The first thing he grabs is the In house canna Cruz brand stuff claiming "this is the highest testing stuff we have" when I know for a fact all the other topshelf brands test higher , but they were talking the opportunity to push their in house shit brand to someone they thought was not aware. My friend said never mind based on how the bud tender was treating him, and went to wait in the car while I finished up my purchase. Once my friend left the building the bud tender who was assigned to him started talking quietly to his coworker and cracked up laughing at my friend. They kept going at it untill I said "you know he was with me right??" To bring attention to the fact they are being super rude and not aware that was my friend who they were talking about. He responded with "your friend was being super rude and nasty the entire time since he came in the sales floor" I watched the whole thing happen and it anything my friend saw through the BS and decided to not purchase anything and they took the opportunity to make fun of him. The next time I tried to come pick up my meds they told me I was not welcome in again because there was a note left by the bud tenders from the previous day saying to remove me as a customer. I go from $80 a day every day and being super nice to my bud tenders to being banned for CALLING THEM OUT for rude behavior. I will not support a company who takes my money yet is so rude and impolite to the people I recommend the shop to. I have had too many negative experiences there from being sold trash from very high prices , being accused of lying about the products I've purchased, and watched my friend get made for it and laughed at to not share my experience here on Yelp. Hopefully others can read this and either pick another shop, realize this is happening to them too and support other businesses, or just share the word that if you went to get fucked over and disrespected come to canna Cruz. read more

Great service and they have a pretty wide selection, pretty much everything I could think they had it! They have really nice containers for the bud and really good quality bud too - definitely recommend stopping by when you come to Santa Cruz read more

This place is around the corner from Costco in Santa Cruz. It's a great dispensary and nice, knowledgeable employees. Great variety of flower, concentrate, pre-rolls, edibles, vapes etc. Well organized and they only let a few people in at a time, so it's not chaotic once you are let inside. There is an ATM and chairs in the lobby. It has a TV screen that flashes the menu while you wait. Comfortable. Minus 2 stars: since legalizing its become so busy with lines out the door. Go early to beat the line. Parking across the street is limited and tight quarters. Prices are expensive. They have high quality top shelf and products. But you will pay for it. Cheers. read more

Went here yesterday with my vaporizer pen and they were super helpful, tested my battery and told me about cartridge output. I visited many places yesterday where good customer service would have meant a lot, this is the only place that came through! Great product and I know their edibles are delicious including that good Kiva stock. In addition, Ive come to believe over the past couple of days that the vapor pen battery which they carry is a superior product, Im extremely happy with it and will likely buy CannaCruz pens for a while. read more

My favorite place . Highly recommended . Nice staff happy to show me what I need to make the right decision. 10/10

I've known the owner for many years now, back when we were kids. I lost interest in the whole MJ thing for a long time. I also experience massive pain. He kept trying to tell me this is what I need and I kept trying, but I was not doing well with it. FF to when he opened his shop and he convinced me to try the edibles that he thought I would like. I did it and I am sleeping through the night for the first time in years! I don't feel like I'm dying when I eat them (I often did when I smoked). I was able to get free delivery (I think sometimes it's $5, but that's so worth it to not have to enter this new crazy world). I had direct contact with Zach (AMAZING). He was so kind and so receptive to my questions. He personally delivered my order to me and he showed up in gloves and a mask. He was so super cool. I kind of love him. Let's give props to this business! I am a lifer now. read more

I went into the shop for NY sour D and was stoked to find out it was on sale. Then upon getting back to the car I realize they gave me Gelato 45 go back and Have to wait in line again, then when I get in again I was told they stocked it wrong admitting to giving me the wrong strain but that all sales are Final. I even asked if I could have a pre-roll for having to wait in line and was told tough luck. Unfortunately for being a good shop I wouldn't go again. read more
