Vista, California1 star
I wish I could share my experience with this retailer. I could not get through the door, literally. I am a long-time customer; every Coastal Cannabis employee has met me and knows me. I've had a great relationship with the guards, until some recent changes. Today, the overwhelmed guard had three or four new people he was dealing with, who he gladly joked around with while doing nothing about the blocking of the door. Dude, that's fracking disrespectful! I don't go where I'm disrespected. You have lost your most often visiting customer. Robert says goodbye. By the way, I drove west a few miles and found Classics live rosin, same product, lower price, friendlier guards.

The perfect bedtime gummy!
This is the best product I've ever tried. Works perfect for a good nights sleep.

What the hell? Your line has women with no masks coughing! I can’t afford 150 at a time. This is very not cool.

Everyone is happy, professional, and smiling! This feels like home again. Best possible quality, fair prices and great discounts and policies. Thank you for providing the medicine that keeps me going.

Not updating menu costs me time and money.
I checked the menu before I left my house. 35 miles away. When I got there, the product that still, right now, shows up as available, the Outco 1 :1 tincture, is not on the shelf. I asked the nearest employee, who went into the back and checked, I saw her talking to a man near the door. She came back and told me they were out, and she showed me other things that were not what I needed. I left without making a purchase. It's four hours later, and it still shows up on your menu on weedmaps.

Owner, manager, and all staff here are top shelf!
The products are all tested and the quality can't be beat. The location is great for those who can get there, but the delivery is straight up a life saver! Veterans are treated well here, there is an elevator if you can't do stairs. If you need medicine, this is the spot. They have it. The high end concentrates, sauces, resins, and tinctures are the best you can find. Anywhere. The people are the best you will ever deal with. Anywhere.

Top quality products, service, and people!
This is the place to go to when you are in need. They have the best hours, the best location, the best products, and management that cares about patients and customers. They respond quickly to questions or concerns, and make the extra effort when they can. I am forever grateful for the help you gave me as a caretaker. I have already told everyone I know how awesome this place is. Thank you!

What a great visit today!
Parking is always a challenge here, but I found one quickly, even though it was very busy today. Security passed me efficiently through into the waiting room, which was full and people we lined up on the bench waiting to get back into the bud room. I started getting anxious and started the timer on my i-phone so I could make sure to have straight facts about my visit. Waiting feels longer to me than it really is, so I always look at the timer to see how long it really was. Including the wait time, I was out the door and in my car 8 minutes after I got there. They processed several orders and performed other tasks and the folks who worked today are the cream of the crop, best of the best. Awesome Job!! They were quick, kind, accurate, and focused. I felt like I had received the highest quality customer service, and upon trying my product when I got home, I also got an excellent deal. Having worked over ten years in the industry, I can tell you it takes the best managers and employees to keep this place running like it did today. Its very rare, and awesome!

Discounts for good reviews, don't be fooled!
I recently went here on a busy day. There was not much parking and there was even a big truck blocking access to the handicapped parking space. As I walked up to the front door, a guard opened the door, bent halfway outside, and spit a large gross white substance out. He had looked right at me first, making me feel insulted and like it was directed at me, a middle aged veteran dressed in old man clothes. The guard went back inside, leaving the door he had just spit from wide open. As I came inside, he told me to close the door behind me. Rude young man will learn the hard way. Manager has to ask to see video? What bullshit, days later they can't see him spit? I would not make this up. Liars and bait and switch here, and they give discounts for "positive" reviews. Don't believe them. Save your time and money and go elsewhere! On my last visit, I specifically asked the manager if the upcoming deal was good for multiple bogo offers and was told yes, only to find that not the case when I drove there. Then the vendor doing the promotion told them they should honor what they sent out in a text, so they gave me the deal, but said not to tell anyone because it was special only for me. Yea right, your special treatment has been awesome. Thug guards are not what we need in medical facilities. Ever increasing prices on the same product shows only greed.

The place you can charge when you are cashless!
Is it still a few days until money gets into that checking account? No worries, when you need that high dose medicine to take the edge off, the ability to use credit here makes it the most important and valid of all the legal collectives. Support them for the support they give us. Parking is often a challenge, but once inside, the variety and deals make it worth a short walk. All staff are professional and well trained. All meds are tested and high quality. It's nice to know Mankind is here.

This place serves a valuable purpose in our town. It's the only place you can buy legit, legal, clean, safe, pure meds without cash. That alone makes me stop by from time to time. Lately, each visit has been great. Keep up the good work.

Updating your weedmaps menu will help.
Drove the 25 miles to this place after just one thing. It was sold out. I asked and dude checked and brought me out the sign for it, saying it was gone. The thing is, it's still listed on your weedmaps menu. I am looking at it now, and it's many hours later, after I made sure someone knew it was listed and sold out. You should fix that. The parking is horrible, I would tell people to park in the McDonalds parking lot, but that lot is clearly marked with tow away signs. Today's selection of extracts is about one quarter what you have listed. Most are over priced. Not a good visit this time.
Mankind Dispensary
San Diego, CaliforniaThank you for taking the time to write us a comprehensive review. We apologize what you were looking for was not in stock and that it did not reflect correctly on our menu.

Most recent visit was good!
I've been stopping in a few times a year when I'm in the area, my most recent visit was one of the better ones. They had what was listed on their menu, it was priced correctly, I got my discount, the quality was excellent for the price. Parking was not cool. The people were all very nice.

No acces to medical products!
I used to love this place, great products, people who seemed to care, and compassionate prices. Today I could not find a parking place, there were people standing in the parking lot smoking joints as if that's okay? I parked in McDonalds lot and walked over, the elevator is pretty busy today, and the line...was around the building. I asked if they had made any accommodations for medical patients who could not wait that long standing up, they answered no. I called and asked if they were able to recommend a medical co-op who could help me out, and they said no. All legal stores have gone to multi-use. It seems to me, the people who really needed medical mj have now been screwed. I did not ever want recreational, and this is why. You have already forgotten us. Luckily for the real medical users, there are in fact other options. Look around. Shop around. There are still good people out there trying to help patients. Just not here.

Great value, high quality products!
My most recent trip was great, I picked up some good shatter for 40 bucks a gram, a very high dose cookie for 35 bucks, some chocolate edibles, and a Mankind brand cartridge for 20 bucks. You can't beat the loyalty program and with my veterans discount, it was a great deal! All the products are high quality. In and out took less than five minutes. Perfect shopping trip, glad I was in the area. Keep up the good work.
Mankind Dispensary
San Diego, CaliforniaThank you for your service! We are glad to be here for you. It is such a treat to see that you have a wonderful shopping experience with us. The Mankind Branded Cartridges are so good for the value, I usually don't like Sativa cartridges but this was a good one. Come by and see us again soon!

Much Better!
The med quality was high. The atmosphere has changed for the better big time since my last visit. The staff were professional and very well trained. The accessibility is good, there is plenty of easy parking, and an elevator if you can't take the stairs. The price is what a legal, licensed place needs to charge. They had exactly what their menu said they would. The guards are better, the bud tenders are better, the quality is better. The price is better. They give a Veterans discount. I will return.
Mankind Dispensary

Epic total failure for the third time, you're out!
Stay away from this place. Don't be fooled by false reviews. This place is horrible. They overprice everything in the shop, and don't have what they advertise when you show up. It's happened to me three times now. They have thug security guards that think they are tough when they talk shit an smack their fist and forearm against their hand. (1:15 pm near the concentrates), they would not get out of the way, kept giggling, and acting like assholes. After not finding what I came for, I looked for someone to ask, but everyone in the place ignored me. I finally left. Not one person in the budroom ever said a word to me. Being scanned at the door by thugs, then having them act like goons in the budroom has forever ruined this place for me. You can never make it right for me to feel threatened when seeking my meds, which you did not have by the way. The shatter listed still on your current menu is not there. Bait and switch every time I come here. I will never pay your overinflated price again, and when your license comes up for review, I will be there with notes and pictures. Get rid of the thugs! No other place needs assholes to run their business.
Mankind Dispensary
San Diego, CaliforniaI love you brother. You tell it like it is. I never understood why you don't like our guards. These are the same guards that work at 4 other legal stores. I want my guards to look confident. That way, no one acts crazy here and destroys the scanty of our location. You have been here many times, and if you would like to critic a store that really values the customer experience. Please come speak to Ed and rip into me.. I think you have a great perceptive on what makes a customer satisfied. Thank you for coming again

I decided to give them another try...
I'm glad I came by tonight. I got there just before a mad rush of new people, I felt sorry for the people working there for sure. Showing up right before a place closes, for the first time is just poor planning. The phones were ringing off the hook, but the pro working the front desk handled everyone with class. I was treated well in the bud room, the selection was exactly what was on weedmaps, the quality of the shatter is good, with the Wednesday wax deal, the price is ok. Everyone working was very cool.
Mankind Dispensary
San Diego, CaliforniaWe are glad you came by also. Yes sometimes late night patients are unplanned for but we strive to do our best to serve everyone we can and it's always great to see new faces. We are very happy you had a great experience and hope to see you again. We are working on expanding our wax selection for patients like yourself. Thanks again and see you soon friend.

They are getting much worse!
This will be my last review for this place. What a joke. I've visited several times, and I've tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, but they just plain suck!
From the jacked prices, to the always suspect quality of the flowers, I've overlooked things because they have a good selection of edibles. Now, I've had it with this place. They sent me emails and text messages about great deals for 420 day. I checked their menu before leaving my place and driving 35 minutes to find they did not have what they used as a ploy to get me to come in. As usual, the check in was quick and friendly, but once I got back into the budroom, it was like I was not there. Check your video. I was there about 7:30. See if anyone ever said hello when I walked in. Nobody even looks up. So, I look around for some of the things in the email ad I got, but I did not see any of the Blue Dream, or the cartridges. When I asked about the BOGO Blue Dream, the dude just said, "Gone!". That was it. No offer to help me find something similar. No explanation. Just, "Gone!"
You know what, I'm gone too! The people in the bud room are not friendly, or helpful. I know you don't care, because I won't be back, but hopefully people will read this and realize there is better medicine at better prices from better people at OTHER PLACES. Look around. Save your money and your time.

San Diego, CaliforniaHello sir, I reviewed the camera footage. I seen the interaction you had with the budtender that day. I also seen the past review about the food and the security guards in which you mentioned the guards hovering over the food. I really thought we lost your business the day of our Grand Opening and you were displeased. I'm glad you gave us another try. So I watch the video and I seen that our Budtender explained we ran out and also walked back into our inventory room to see if there was anymore Blue Dream for you. Sam, also remembered telling you of our other special we had which was the BOGO of OG Cheese. I did see him speaking in length to you. I don't know if you were aware that Weedmaps crashed the day of 4/20, so we were unable to update the menu. I sincerely apologize for you spending your time in the car coming to our location and not having here what you expected. All though this is out of our control, I must apologize we could not update WM that day to reflect current inventory. We obviously are not responsible for the crashing of WM site. I do feel uncomfortable that it was not current. My name is Ed, and I am a manager here, and my role is customer experience evaluation. I am here to make your experience satisfactory. Our cameras do not have sound, so I could not hear the entire interaction you had with Sam. Please understand, it is not our point of view, it is yours that must have gratification when exiting our facility. Please help me, by introducing yourself and help improve every patient's individual experience.

Great location, safe, friendly, credit/atm cards!
My most recent visit found much improved quality of both top shelf flowers and wax. As always the best selection of edibles at a very good price. The people are always friendly. The price on the high end concentrates is the only thing keeping this from being a five star co-op.
