We Are Hemp

I hate to write reviews that don't have many good things to say, but unfortunately sometimes it happens. The reason I even bother to write reviews on here is so people can get someones honest opinion about a dispensary, and so they can avoid places like this. I'm still appalled at how awful my experience was here. I have never felt so disrespected and poorly treated in a dispensary, let alone a business, like I was at We are hemp. A friend of a friend mentioned this place to me because it's much closer to the tri-valley, where I live, than any other dispensaries. I had high hopes going to We Are Hemp, because of the distance, I really truly wanted this place to be even half-way decent so I wouldn't have to drive to San Jose to get my meds. First thing you notice is it's awkward location, juxtaposed right next to an intersection with a freeway on-ramp, a little tricky to get to, plus their driveway is a disaster. If you drive anything smaller than a truck your car is getting OWNED on their driveway, and IF you manage to get up into the parking lot without earning yourself a trip to auto repairs, there's only like five parking spots. Just stepping foot in the door I felt like I wasn't welcome. Their security was ridiculous and seemed to want to pick a fight with everyone who knocked on the front door. I went through the routine of filling out paperwork and waiting to be verified, hoping that the stink-eyes and downright attitude would not be present at the bud counter, but I was wrong. The entire visit I felt rushed and unwanted. It was obvious from start to finish that these guys had no idea of how to treat a customer. I received no help from the budtender so I requested an eighth of grape ape and got the fuck out. Even the flowers were complete garbage. If you are even slightly tempted to visit We are hemp because its the closest dispensary in your area, you are better off driving into the city. It's sad that some people are okay with such shitty quality of service from any establishment. PLEASE do yourself some good and do not give these guys your money. I have been to numerous dispensaries and have NEVER been treated like I was here. These guys need a few lessons in common courtesy and respect. DON'T start a business if you are not going to be willing to SERVE the customers. If my review gets deleted it will be back up the next day because that is what this online forum of discussion is for, sharing honest opinions, good or bad. And I still have the photo ID I took at We Are Hemp to prove I suffered through being herded through their dispensary. Garbage.

the bud is good most of the time, always hook it up n i never park in front always park around the corner cuz of oncoming traffic and high curb that scrapes the crap out of my car.

We Are Hemp is overall a good dispensary. Parking is horrible though if you don't approach from an extreme angle your going to damage your car coming here over and over. The bud is great quality and hits hard, all the bud I get from here ashes white as it should. The staff are okay, at first they seem lazy and don't seem like they really respect you but as time passes they warm up a little. Prices are good and you always get a selection of top shelf high and medium grades. Although adding a few more strains for the high and medium grades wouldn't hurt as they are usually limited to one or two strains. The card system they use is very convenient, you dont need your rec everytime you go just your We Are Hemp card. Overall Id give this dispensary a B-.

FIRST OFF..I GO HERE EVERYDAY AND BUY AT LEAST A HALF EIGTH FOR 25$..THEY USUALLY HAVE 4-6 DIFFERENT TOP SHELF STAINS THAT ALL LOOK>SMELL>TASTE>BURN> GREAT!!! DEPENDING ON WHAT TIME OF THE DAY YOU GO. EVERY TIME THEY"RE HALF EIGHTS WIEGH OUT PAST 2.0g and one time i got 2.6 for 25$ of some jolly rancher. THERE selection tends to be about the same in variety but never gets old in my opinion. THIS is the most convienent dispensary and i will forever be planning my days with a stop at HEMP! SECURITY AND TENDERS are all chillin and always show respect. EVERYONE Disses on the drive way, but people need to realize that with the location of the driveway, you need it to be steap.. so people dont and cant go fast in and out, that wouldnt be safe for anyone at the collective. I have a SUV so i aint trippin'...this is my favorite club in the bay area, when it comes to my buds. I WANNA GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO THE STAFF AT WE ARE HEMP>>>... I APPRECIATE YOUR DEDICATION AND EFFORT TO MAKE THIS DISPENSARY and EVERYTHING ABOUT IT AS GREAT AS IT IS>>MAD RESPECT>>

This is the spot i always go to. theyre selection is never huge. usually 2 different strains of their lowest quality, which is never ever bad. like 4 strains of their middle grade, and like 4-6 strains of their top shelf. Their top shelf bud is all I ever get. its 50$ an 8th and just as good as Harborside's 60$ eighths. Also We Are Hemp includes tax in their prices. Honestly, out of all the dispenseries ive been to, this is the best spot if you only want bud.

overall:

Parking: D- (Unfortunately there is a big curb in front and you have to hit it at an extreme angle to avoid scraping. Theres also only like 7 parking spaces and traffic coming at you while u try to park)

Medicine Quality: A+ (Their top shelf is always killer, their mids are always real good and worth the price. their lower qulity weed isnt that good unfortunately, but I moved to CA for the quality not quantity haha)

Price: B (top shelf 8ths are 50, mid grade 8ths are 45 but their half eighths are the same price 25$ they also have an outdoor special 8th for like 15 bucks.)

Selection: C- (If you only want some weed this is the spot. If you want something else, go somewhere else. They only have weed and swishers and zig zags.)

This is my favorite dispensary!

great prices great selection and if u spend so much every visit after so many u get free weed

Parking sucks
place has a weird vibe
the bud is nothing to jump around about
prices dont match quality

Cool spot if you are close but don't make a trip of this place

i like this club....the only thing is that the parking sucks...i have a low car and i get scarred to park my car on the lot even when ther is room, but the vlub overall is hella cool i like it alot the bud there is so good i fell in love with one of the buds they got

I miss coming here! This was THE place I went to when I lived in CA. Small, but the bud and staff were ALWAYS amazing! Watch out for the curb when you pull in the parking lot though haha

We Are Hemp is conveniently located right near the Lewelling Exit on 238, so if you're taking 580 or 880 to get here it's not hard to find at all. Their staff is cool and the security aren't rude, so that's a plus. Their bud selection is so-so but the quality from what I've tried has yet to disappoint. The worst thing about them is that their prices are pretty high.

I visit family in Hayward, so when I'm there and the need for bud arises, these guys are close and convenient!
