This review is for my most recent visit and my interaction with people in the store, nothing more.
Driving north on 52nd the handwritten specials sign outside the newly (ongoing?) remodeled Mr. Nice Guy advertised ozs at the lowest price I've seen in this neighborhood. Naturally I whipped into the parking lot next door (good parking after 5 ish, otherwise the street behind them is quiet with one spot and street parking) and bopped my way to the front door. The door opens to a sliding window where they check id and then buzz you through when it's your turn.
I asked about the deal, was shown the product, discussed pertinent information and decided to go for it. At no point did I feel judged or pressured for inquiring about an advertised deal. One of the worst things ever is having an incentive to visit and then feeling shamed for it. Nope, here it was just a simple 'anything else?' and then right to the cash register.
I signed up for the rewards program because why not? They used a phone number for reference, not email, and since I never answer my phone anyway spam calls were the last thing on my mind. (I guess a fake number could work long as you remember it.) The transaction was quick, sanitary, safe and easy. In and out in less than 10 min. And, thankfully, quarantine measures were clear and being followed.
Aesthetically it's somewhere between cozy lounge and sterile bud bar. Idk what it'll be when they're finished with the face lift, but I do know there's a couple comfy chairs inside so you can wait for your friend who doesn't know the cute bud tender isn't actually flirting, but hey, shoot your shot, I'll be chilling over here. read more
