I usually love shopping with Green Goddess--the security team and the budtender originally helping me today were so cool and friendly, but when it came time to buy a few of the items, a different budtender took over and she was honestly pretty rude and not at all helpful. I was asking about some of the gummies, to which she curtly responded that she didn't like this specific brand, didn't elaborate more, couldn't really answer the questions I had, and I kind of just felt like I needed to pay and get out of there. I don't like leaving negative reviews and maybe she was just having a bad day, but the whole experience today was just so off putting. read more

The staff here are amazing. Whether you are a new or veteran user, they are incredibly knowledgeable about all the products. The location is great and prices are competitive with other dispensaries. They do tend to run low on certain products on the weekends - but always offer great alternatives. read more

update Mar 20: Wow, went to MedMen... the diff was like leaving an intimidating store in some scary city and arriving at the Apple store crossed with boutique hotel friendly staff!!! ________________ Over Priced. Rude staff exist at this place. Smile, you're selling weed :-/ Their ID policy is unnecessarily stricter than the State mandates, and they still do the whole copy ID, NO CELLPHONES... feel like you're buying crack inside of Alcatraz scare attitude. CHANGE.. it's recreational and fun now, not militarized and frowned upon. They were not at all helpful, besides ... "yes that's top shelf. No I just have Indica or Indica" ... no smile. TERRIBLE! Go sell coal for the Trump base instead. read more

We were okay with it being overpriced . However, black girl with the braids is cocky, rude and acts like she is doing you a favor by being there. We purchase a sizable amount of product weekly. We will no longer do so here. One person has cost your company thousands of dollars annually. I'm writing to Leafly. read more

This was my go to dispensary until today. The "bud tender" was not interested in helping find solutions. To be honest she seemed lazy and not very knowledgeable. When asked about specifics I got attitude... unfortunate. All I can say is the customer and that purchase is what makes and breaks a store front. I'll take my business somewhere else. read more

Love you guys. Hope whoever tested positive for covid-19 is in good health and hope you are all okay. Much love from Larry, Nabis Distribution read more

A well-stocked, petite and friendly shop near the famous "Venice" sign. I experienced a 15 minute wait on a Saturday evening, but they have a simple/safe lobby area. Know before you go: - Cash only, but they have an ATM - No photos - Bring your Driver's License - Ask for their daily 15% off special - Ask to see low, medium and high grade They didn't have some brands that I like, however, my tender offered knowledgeable recommendations. read more

I would never shop here again they tax excessively and they keep 99.99% of the "debit card" fee. You're better off going to Roots or wonderland. read more

Came here for the second time. First time, I knew what I wanted, there was no line. In n out quick. Today here for the second time. Staff very helpful in helping find what would meet our needs. Gave us our 2nd visit discount and applied accumulated points. Glad it comes up on the computer as I sure would have forgotten to get that credited. read more

Visiting from AZ. Sal and Edgar were both extremely helpful and friendly. Sal was very knowledgeable and provided multiple recommendations and price point options when we told him what we were looking for. Highly suggest this cannabis shop! read more

My fav dispensary in the area! Their selection is good and they have a range of prices to choose from (they're definitely not charging $80 for an hour 1/8 like medmen). I usually go here twice a week for loose flower and preroll. Jessica & another guy (I forgot his name )are the best and I usually trust them to recommend something for me. They also have daily sales I would recommend checking out! read more

Awesome customer service from Edgar (security) and Sal. Sal was super informative and helped us pick something great for our relaxing visit from Phoenix. Very clean, organized and they even accept debit. 10/10 would recommend! read more

Matt was so very helpful and the prices here were great!! If you are ever around Venice, just take a short walk around the corner to get your goods for a great and normal price with super helpful staff at Green Goddess! read more

This Shop is Cool i Was told they Carry Clone Goddess 5Carat Diamonds but When i Got there the Budtender Said they Didn't Have it.. but She Said they Would Be Getting More i Hope So because 5Carats Diamonds is a Super Rare Concentrate And A lot of People Want it. Green Goddess!!! read more

I loved this place!!! They are Experts in their field for sure. Very knowledgeable staff and I was very pleased that they took their time and explained the products to me. I wish they had this company in Florida. I will DEFIANTLY vist this place the next time I'm in Cali!!! read more

This place reminds me of the mid 70's when my dope dealer lived in the area. This is the only funky place I have seen most look like converted failed business. Help support the vintage atmosphere and remember how it was for us old hippies. read more

The staff here rock! Many of the same people for many years. This says a lot about the management. Smart Always helpful and positive I like their selection and like that they have a loyalty program and take cards most of the time I go here exclusively read more

The best bud with the most helpful budtender. And they have literally everything you can think of. Even if you arnt a smoker they have way more options to consume cannabis that is beneficial to everyone read more

Good - Limited but decent brands, Prices are comparable Bad - 1) 35% taxes added to sale - NOT A JOKE - My bill went from $254 to $317. That's a really big bite Bad- 2) The lady that helped me was very nice and recommend some nice prerolls and wax. After I paid, I checked the receipt and she had charged me for a extra $23 preroll... When I went back in the store her demeanor had completely changed. Far from apologetic, she was curt and did not offer to refund the money - instead just handed me another preroll. People do make mistakes but my gut tells me this was a small time grift. I did not take back the $13 tip but will NEVER go back. Too many other places. read more

I walk in with my phone this girl that was working the last shift on the reception asked me to talk on my phone outside. Which is valid.I walked outside finished my call and went back in and said My bad. She says I'm sorry gives me a high five. And I say you don't have to say you are sorry it's all good. I know you don't mean it anyway. She decide to get mad at me and not keep it as a professional. And called the manager a ignorant dude with attitude. I want to explain to them why it's not necessary to create all this. I'm here for business and you guys are not keeping it professional. Because a customer is king as long as he acts like one.I can tell you my opinion but you just have to listen and not argue with me. The weed is not very good anyways. So I went to Medman and they hooked it up. Ask for local discount at Medman. read more

This dispendsary is joke. Ive never been so offended for the cannabis community. Selection, prices, budtenders, unbelievable. When most of us joined this industry we wanted to help people get the best medecine and service possible. I would never recommended such a shallow, greedy business to ANYONE. The "taxes" charged are completely unheard of. Good dispensaries raised their prices a tiny bit to include the tax when it became necessary. I guess nobody clued in Green Goddess.. their unfortunate customers not only pay massively inflated prices on all products.. BUT THEN they get stuck paying 35% tax at the end. Yes, 35%. The budtenders were not knowledgable, extremely snarky and completely useless. The selection was less then mediocre. Im not surprised they had to post signs all over letting customers know there are "no refunds or returns". If i could rate less than 1 star, I would. read more

Waste of time. No parking. Deceivingly small store. Security = over achievers. Narrow selection of products. No top-shelf goods. Cannot walk around on your own to see if they even have what you want -- must wait in line to be assisted by a budtender. May the force be with you if the only 2 budtenders have to educate 2 noob stoners about every product & strain in the store. Lamer than actually being cat-fished. read more

Incredibly rude and nasty front desk person. I walked in, barely said anything and she started verbally attacking me. So bizarre and unprofessional. read more

Hey Hey! Shoutout to Ms Lovie! Very welcoming as a receptionist. She's always on top of things and makes my experience that much better once I walk through the doors. If you haven't visited and your at Venice beach. Stop by!! read more

Rude and unhelpful. I have bought from them repeatedly over the last year. My Id was always the same but some rent-a-cop decided he wanted to make an issue about a 75 year old white guy with terminal cancer (it's not like I look like I'm under age) having old ID. I do not see how you can trust a store that seems to enjoy, suddenly, after months of shopping there, just want to push an old ill man around. Go to a store you can trust. read more

We stopped by as soon as we got here for our week in the LA area (visiting from Orlando) and ended up coming back because it was so good! The staff was friendly, especially Khadejah who helped us both times. Also the store is pretty chill and of course the products were great (we got gummies and a disposable live resin pen). Highly recommend! read more

3 words: bring your wallet!.. they stayed other testimonial that since 2005 they've been charging people exorbitant prices for medicine.... if you're nearby you don't want to walk to another dispensary I guess it's your only option... prices are ridiculous... all this talk about Venice local OG shit and yet they'll charge you eighty bucks for an eighth of weed.... shame... shame... shame... shame... shame...shame shame... shame... shame... shame read more

I'm a long time Cannabis smoker and I have bought marijuana everywhere around town... this was by far the worst cannabis store I've ever been to.... the worst was probably how condescending the bud tenders were... I guess when you're in Venice there's no need to be nice since you're going to have customers no matter, what but they could try a little harder... There wasn't much choice once you were inside and the parking situation is dreadful... avoid at all costs... There are a few choices in Venice anyways... read more

Too expensive. Probably because of the location. Staff was not very helpful and definitely didn't make me feel comfortable. No small talk just buy and get out type of attitude. read more

Best experience and products I've gotten since being in usa. I love the front desk girl so nice not to mention hot

Stopped by here to get some gifts, on the expensive side but that's the industry. Nice clean place, would come back.

I had to write something about this place. I have been to a lot of shops in the Los Angeles and California area over the many years and I have never been to a shop more knowledgeable, welcoming, with the most amazing selection of products. This place has been and continues to be the best in my opinion anywhere. read more

Over priced tourist trap. Shopped there for a while and soon realized that there are better spots. I haven't been since they remodeled or expanded it and probably won't still. Service was hit or miss. Maybe it's gotten better now in the past year or so... It's your call and your money read more

This place is great they have everything your looking for and I absolutely love the pricing and location. Great selection budbud Pacific Stone, tasty strong strains, and a very knowledgeable, courteous, and friendly staff. If your in Venice Beach stop by and check them out excellent collective in the neighborhood. Green Goddess has the goods! read more

Went to Venice beach recently and thought about trying out a new dispensary with my friend. I'm from the Los Angeles area. Big mistake!!! I waited in the waiting room for about 25mins then when I walked upstairs I waited for another 10mins and when we finally checked out their buds they were terrible!!! And super expensive! Also to top it off the lady who helped us was veryyy slow and looked as if she was too high to function properly. The lady kept talking to her coworker, Once we told the lady nicely we had somewhere to be and if she can kindly hurry up she said, "oh we're busy" and continued to talk to her friend. My friend and I were livid at this point. My best advice to you is if your looking for quality bud and somewhere that's not to expensive, stick in the Los Angeles area! This collective was TERRIBLE. I was so disappointed. read more

I came here once to buy a vape pen and a cartridge and ended up wasting 80 bucks because of course, the pen itself wasn't working. I remember going back to them that night and they told me that it just needed to be charged. I went back home, the pen could barely hold charge (if at all) and eventually, even if the pen was charged over night, it would just stop pulling and then the light would blink on and off. Bummer read more

Can't thank Rachel enough. My first time in the shop and I had a wonderful experience. Tons of great THC-infused products to choose from. Rachel specifically was kind, knowledgeable and really made sure I didn't feel pressured to rush through my selecting. Was able to use my medical card and save some cabbage. Will definitely be back!!! read more

This collective is an Amazing organization, an advocate for patients, and has incredible quality staff, daily deals, informative and open environment, and superior service. THese dispensaries are in danger, please support them. IMPORTANT: Ignore the other review by Debbie L. -- Notice that she ONLY HAS TWO reviews, both are NEGATIVE, 1-star reviews... that just SCREAMS "Hater." ...No wonder why the medicine didn't work on her... can't make someone Irie who is full of negativity. Check em out yourselves... you'll know what's up. read more

I bought a wide variety of edibles here and they are terrible. My neighbor did as well. She ate all of hers and the only effect we experienced was a bad headache. We have since gone to another collective and have had a totally different experience. I will never frequent this place again. read more

Fantastic experience on my first visit today - first class, high end quality inventory and very knowledgeable helpful staff. My new go-to collective absolutely. Special shout out to Ashley - a beautiful smart representative who made my time very memorable and fun. Thanks GGC! read more
