Their new register the night before and come anytime between 2-9 system kind of blows. Standing outside in 20 degree weather freezing because of it. The two hour blocks worked much better. Other than that, when you get inside everything is pretty smooth sailing and the selection is great. I suggest you get to know the security guard because then you get in regardless of registration. I did not, but that's what I witnessed. read more

My experiences at dispensary 33 have been pleasant and mostly easy! I always order online ahead of time and then pick up there. The only struggle is navigating the building on the inside. It's quite confusing and could probably be arranged in a way that is more customer friendly- especially for anyone that may be nervous or anxious. Fortunately, the workers here are extremely kind & polite and will help you navigate the route. read more

The prices are roughly 200-250% more expensive than any other dispensary in Chicago. Example, a high supply .5 gram vape here cost $68. At any other dispensary, it would cost $20-$25. Very surprised this place is still in business. read more

I think this place is awesome, had absolutely no issues when I went here I don't think the space is cramped at all like some said, it's a crisp, clean and open space Prices were pretty fair, the edible's I bought are delicious and they def hit. The only thing I didn't like is the cash only restriction which to be fair is out of their control. Also fyi the ATMs they have on site do not charge a fee. read more

My favorite dispensary in the city. The staff are friendly and the edible selection is large.

Very hit or miss with this dispensary. Sometimes they are very off putting, rushing you and copping an attitude but sometimes they are very pleasant and act as if you are a valued customer and they appreciate your business. The last straw came when I was given my order of edible pills and when I got home there were 9 pills instead of the 10 that I was supposed to get. Emailed them and they offered to give me a $40 credit but had to go through a bunch of steps for them to honor it. Won't be going back. If this was a real drug transaction, there would be no way that guys would short you. Also, they don't have hardly any Sativa edibles. Better places to take your business read more

I strongly strongly do NOT recommend you shop here. I went in asking for references for edibles and the lady could not distinguish if they sold any by strains or if they simply had any edibles that were hybrids. After 5 mins of her mumbling as she was completely stoned out of her mind, I thanked her for her time and turned around and went to a dispensary in Evanston where the edibles are $10+ CHEAPER PER PACK FOR THE SAME EXACT BRAND AND ITEM. The prices here are ridiculous and that's coming from someone that dropped $400. Will never waste my time here again. It's worth noting that the receptionist is on it so there's the 1 star when the experience without her would truly be zero read more

Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. A rogue employee put something egregious in my account and as a result, they blocked my account. Whatever incident occurred never happened as I don't even live in Chicago and just visit from time to time. I'll be taking my business elsewhere. If I could give negative stars I could. How's that for your "incident?" Pathetic. read more

This used to be my 'go to' dispensary when they first opened. They had a knowledgeable, friendly staff and their online reps were quite attentive and helpful. Ever since they expanded their original sales space, and added a second retail location, the entire operation has taken a nose dive. The online ordering system fails regularly, the website is a hot mess and moves like molasses in January when it comes to updating and refreshing online. Even the current staff leaves something to be desired - now they all look and act like extras from a skatepark movie, and I would be hard pressed to find that any of the new hires had even a basic knowledge of the products they sell. It took me a while but I've finally seen how this dispensary truly operates, and I've decided to move on. I suggest you do the same. read more

Pickup orders are quick and seamless Transparent and fair pricing, friendly staff, this is my go-to read more

Yes, there's a complex queue system in place here to help combat the spread of COVID-19. (We're in the middle of a devastating global pandemic in case some of you assholes hadn't noticed. Get the fuck over it.) I love the indica-dominant sea salt caramels that I was able to find here, and was pleased to learn that the staff here is both friendly and knowledgeable. Eventbrite makes things easy for you if you have your medical card (or rec card, for that matter) and need to reserve a place in the queues. read more

Recreational - Use eventbrite (search Dispensary 33) for day of visit (free - only pay for products in store). Check your email. Pre order cannabis on their website. Pick up and pay - generally expensive af. In and out in less than 10 minutes. read more

Nice staff but the prices are ridiculous. Much cheaper and same quality at other dispensaries

I love coming to the dispensary! This people are always so nice. My favorite person at that is Suz! Suz is awesome! She always give the best recommendations and is always so patient and helpful! If your looking for a good place to buy your smoke, try this place and let Suz help you. read more

It's always amazing to see how dispensaries think they can serve medical patients with unhelpful eye rolling staff. You can just look it up on your phone is not the answer one would expect when you're standing right in front of an employee who should be able to tell you the information you need. read more

I was actually really impressed with how well this place is run. We put our name in right as they opened, maybe a few minutes until 9. A crowd started to form around 8:50am, so best to get there a little early if you can. They took our name and cell number and said they'd text when they had an opening, and that we'd have an hour from that time to come and shop. We got a text at 9:37am, and were just wrapping up brunch at the nearby Bongo Room. We headed over, sat in the designated order in the chairs in the waiting room. They scanned our QR code once they called us into the room, where we were connected with a sales rep who was there to answer questions and whatnot. We bought an eighth for $80. Cash only, obvs. Were in and out I think in 12 minutes. Maybe 20. And super glad we were able to get that before it got harder to shop b/c of corona. read more

Their edibles are $10-$30 more than anywhere else in the city. On their website they also refuse to call edibles by their brand names, so you can't decipher what it is. They also don't like to tell you if it's indica, sativa, or hybrid. Overall just crummy treatment of people who need these. Literally any other dispensary in the city will offer significantly lower prices. read more

Dispensary 33 has the most complicated queue systems I've seen out of any store. If you don't understand it (like most reasonable people), then your time and money will be better spent elsewhere. Ever since recreational marijuana use was legalized in Illinois it makes sense that stores are flooded with demand. At first, I respected D33's digital queuing system. But it has been a few months since the pot rush and D33 still has a mandatory digital queue system. The shop can be completely empty but you will still be turned away if you do not have a ticket. Like many people I've talked to, D33 is one of the closest dispensaries near me. Its location in the Andersonville neighborhood of Chicago makes it ideal for many tourists and residents. Yet, D33 doesn't seem to want people's money as they devised the most complex series of hoops customers have to jump through to buy products. On top of that, you can only buy recreationally from 9:30-11AM. If the time goes past 11AM, you're SOL -- even if you've been waiting in the cold for hours. Some people won't mind jumping through all the hoops. Some people don't mind waking up at 6AM to go out to D33 and buying recreational marijuana products. But I do. I enjoy my sleep and I understand that Chicago is freezing cold most of the year. I understand there may be waits and friction since the law was enacted, but this is ridiculous. Most products seem to be more on edibles, vapes, and the like. Flower seems to be for medical users only at the moment. Understandable. D33 is a cash-only business with an ATM on site. I haven't used the machine but I understand that the machine has super low fees ($0.50 IIRC). Yet, these small pluses do not even come close in redeeming this place. Even though it's the closest dispensary to me, I don't find myself coming here in the future at all. There are faster and easier dispensaries not much further away. 1/5. Unless you like waking up at 6-8AM, signing up for a digital ticket to buy recreational products, and don't mind the risk of being turned away after 11AM, this place may be for you. Otherwise, there's better options out there. read more

Parking here is the absolute worst. I spent 15 mins trying to find parking only to be told they are only taking medial patients. Wtf I submitted an online order read more

I have been an insomniac for my whole life... my body even fights being put under anesthesia. I did my best to cope with little to no sleep... but it certainly eats away at ya. My boyfriend recommended I try some cannabis gummies... which sounded like another expense (and my purse isn't getting any bigger). But after a few particularly horrid sleepless nights (in January 2021), I figured, why not try? I went to a dispensary in Lakeview... just because I happened to be over there running an errand. The gummies worked like a dream! I reorganized my spending so I could fit them into my budget on a regular basis. My February and March trips to this place went smoothly. I thought I'd really found a solution... and getting good rest improves everything! But today (April 15th 2021), I went to get my monthly stash... and that place had no one to consult with... and I didn't have a mobile phone... so I wasn't able to place or retrieve an order. I made that long walk home empty-handed and sobbing. Once home and glued to my laptop, I looked up other dispensary options and was delighted to find Dispensary33... just a short jaunt from my apartment. I was able to find a comparable product... and ended up saving $30! So... shorter walk... cheaper prices. I think I'll be getting my sleep-aids from Dispenary33 from now on. :-) read more

This dispensary's management needs to have a serious meeting and figure out a better way to sell to non medical customers. So I went in today and was informed that in order to purchase, we have to tweet or instagram follow and get a ticket (like a meat market). Then they tell you when to come in (yeah I'm waiting all day to give you business). Also how about some discretion for the customers??? Social media to request a ticket and everyone knows. I'm sticking with dispensaries with normal customer seller customs or good ol lil Eazy that I been using for 9 years. read more

I cannot believe all the 1 Star recent reviews from the new recreational crowd. They all need to realize that the entire state is running low on product and it certainly not the fault of this dispensary or it's wonderful staff. If you go online, you can find out when walk ins are available or you can make an appointment. Such a bunch of bitchers, they all need to smoke a bowl and chill the hell out. read more

Amazing. They are so nice and helpful. I've never been to a dispensary before, my boyfriend usually does this for me but however he was out of town, BUT they were amazing!!!! I wish I knew the names of the two people who helped me! I just told them what I was looking for and I was in and out in like 6 minutes. AMAZING!!!!!! read more

Love this dispensary! Really cool decor and super friendly staff. Everyone is extremely nice and helpful. Never a long wait!

Easy, staff was fantastic, I received what I paid for. Tax was included in the price. Wait was minimal, place was spotless. Way way way better experience then last week (read my review of MedMen in Evanston). read more

Dispensary33 - Juicy, fresh af - Cannabis Clinics Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I stopped buying from here. I'm a cancer patient who needs indica RSO, not sativa RSO, not indica dominant--indica RSO, like Rick Simpson himself preaches. They did not seem interested in helping to source it, instead arguing with me on what I needed. "We go by milligrams, not strain." What? Lol. No. The difference in effect between sativa and Indica is like trying to say uppers and downers are interchangeable. That's ridiculous. Listen up. When you are running this much cannabis through your brain, the differences are amplified, and you can tell me what I need and what is going to cause bad symptoms. Because I've already experienced them. When it's your life on the line, you can tell me what is best. But to not stock or consider finding the one strain that is helpful . . . Let's just say I can get it elsewhere, and the difference is HUGE. They are losing a metric shit ton of money from me. read more

First time in Chicago and this dispo didn't disappoint. Wonderful customer service, well structured and good quality. The whole staff is fun. read more

Having been a medical patient for 2 months now, I've learned to not get excited before visiting D33's online medical menu. They've usually got a nice selection of flower and edibles, but getting anything exciting such as pre-rolls or special spunky strains is almost non-existent. Who actually wants 15% THC flower strains?? Please 33, change up/expand your menu options! PS the staff is super cool and everyone is helpful and has great energy. read more

I can't complain about the lines, as that is not their fault. The lines will slow down when more shops open and there are more places to go. Once inside, the staff is really nice. Very welcoming and patient with everyone. They made great recommendations, and I am thoroughly enjoying what I purchased. The pricing seems high, but I'm coming from 5 years of Washington state, which had the same issue at first. More competition will drive those prices down in time. I will be back! read more

Expensive? Yes. But I'm always in and out in less then 10 minutes and the products are fire. Very helpful and kind staff. This is worth the extra few bucks. And they have a rewards program. I didn't even pay for my bud today. read more

Every experience I've had here has been a quick and easy one. So glad to have this dispo as an option in the city. 10/10 prefer it over Sunnyside. read more

I can't believe people are leaving negative reviews from the first day weed became legal here. It wasn't like you had to physically wait in line most of the time - they do a texted-based line system whereas you'd have to come back to the dispensary when it was your turn. My husband and I just spent the time hanging out in the restaurants/bars in the area and made a day of it. The Good: - knowledgeable staff - wide variety - ATM only charges $.50 - Tax is included - Communication, as far as if they're selling recreational that day, is great! All you need to do is check their instagram stories The Bad: - when we got in line, we were told it would only be 2 hours. It turned out to be closer to 6. Again, we didn't stand in a physical line for more than an hour, so it was nice to be able to do things instead of standing in the cold for hours. It would have been nice to get updates via text with the updated time. I'll definitely be back and I'm seriously considering getting a medical card to save on some of these extra taxes. read more

One of the most reasonably priced dispos in the city. Great staff, always uplifting and welcoming. Worth the visit every time!

This place is everything! People are so nice, they explained everything. I'm a first timer here and I brought pre-rolled I will be back for SURE read more

Somehow accomplished the rare feat of both expanding their real estate space, while providing an even more cramped environment for patients and rec customers. Staff can be hit or miss. Sometimes super friendly and helpful with tips or suggestions. Other times very perfunctory--just churning people in and out like the DMV. Was hoping the expansion would improve the shopping experience but as of this post it certainly has not. read more

Small and cramped space. Inventory online does not match inventory in store. Broken computer in store to order and broken ATM. Rude workers. Would not go again. read more

always very friendly service and it's very nice that they include the tax. however it is absolutely sinister the way they lure you in with insane discounts online, just to show up and "oh we're all out of that. in fact we're all out of anything on sale. might i suggest a $75 eighth instead?" CRIMINAL! read more

Nope. Unfriendly worker working the curbside pick up. Perhaps working on manners is a start. When the lady came out to collect my money she didn't say "hello". So let's see I have $350 I am spending right now in the store and you can't even acknowledge your customer. This place is only for emergencies. THC Center is the best. Everyone is very knowledgeable about cannabis and are beyond friendly. I'd rather give money to people who are like that. Do not go here. read more

The selection is terrible. The staff is either too busy socializing with each other or just plain rude. They do not prioritize medical patients at all. Prices are way too high. They also do things that are illegal. I bought a defective product and sent an email with an explanation and pictures. They told me they would remedy the situation but I had to bring the cartridge in. That is ILLEGAL. Then they did nothing to fix the issue. I would rather travel slightly further to have more options at a lower price. I recommend Sunnyside. Especially if you're a medical patient. read more

I had a great first time experience here. Friendly security and friendly staff. I was kind of disappointed after I Weighed one of the eighths and found out it was 3.3 gm instead of 3.5. But that's a fine it was a really good sale. read more
