Cozy interior but this does not compromise the experience. Happily, the budtenders are on the ball and prevent customers queueing up too much. Everything is set up to work with the space and mostly accomplishes this. Most importantly though is the location. It's a big deal not having to drive so far out of my way from the Palmer proper area

Located in a charming building! It's next to that place that was a video rental store for a few years in the 2010s. For a long time I've had to drive like five to ten miles so I'm pretty happy with this place being so much closer.
