They have the best prices
The prices on a lot of things are cheaper than any other legal shop that I ever been and you can compare the prices in this same app. Full gram carts from 20 dollars and up

Pick up order not as expected
I placed my order for pick up as I always do. This last time I was told I had to wait and complete the transaction on the curb and not at the window as every other time. Staff is always nice I personally don’t like paying and receiving my change in the curb. My change was dropped and I was also unable to speak with the staff to confirm what I ordered and ask for any additional recommendations. It was just overall not what I come to expect from a normally very pleasant dispensary to visit. I hope for a better experience next time around. (Service always great)

Disgusting attitude
Everytime i come here the girl who checked me out is always rude and unprofessional.

I NEVER FINISHED THIS ORDER
I Complained earlier about the shady practices of this company, and a few hours later they processed the order I complained about without my consent. I purchased nothing.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. In order to remove them from the queue, orders that are cancelled are often marked as "complete" on the back end of the system in order to remove them from the queue. This will send a message to the customer that your order has been processed. Apologies for any confusion. If you have any further questions or there is anything we can do to make your experience the best it can possibly be, please do not hesitate to reach out.

About us
🌿 A Green Alternative
San Diego’s First Legal Dispensary — Los Primeros
A Green Alternative opened its doors in 2015 with a simple goal: create a safe, professional place for people in San Diego to access quality cannabis without the stigma. Being the first legal dispensary in the city wasn’t just a milestone for us — it was a responsibility. From day one, we’ve worked to set the tone for what a dispensary experience should feel like: welcoming, informed, and built on trust.
Built on Experience, Not Hype
Over the years, we’ve grown alongside our community. What started as a small operation helping lead the transition into legal cannabis has become a space where customers can feel comfortable asking questions, learning about products, and finding what actually works for them. We focus on quality, consistency, and honest guidance — not just selling products.
Rooted in Community
AGA has always been more than a storefront. We’re part of the neighborhood and proud of it. Whether someone is new to cannabis or has been part of the culture for years, our goal is to create a space that feels approachable and respectful. We believe cannabis should be accessible in a way that feels safe, transparent, and grounded in real human connection.
Always Evolving
The cannabis industry continues to grow, and so do we. Our team is constantly refining our menu, improving our processes, and finding ways to elevate the customer experience while staying true to what got us here in the first place. Being “Los Primeros” isn’t just about history — it’s about continuing to lead with integrity and intention.
A Green Alternative isn’t trying to be the flashiest shop in the city. We aim to be one of the most trusted. If you’ve been with us since the early days, we appreciate you. If you’re visiting for the first time, welcome — we’re glad you’re here.
