Not a fan of the new bud tenders and the selection has gone downhill fast. I prefer indica’s and I’ve asked to bring more stock for the last few months and they are still always out. The new budtenders are not very friendly and are very pushy as well. I would recommend saving time and money and stopping in Longmont. Better selection, prices and customer service

OMG!!!!! My boyfriend and I were passing through after a stay at the Stanley Hotel. We walked in and there is a cute little waiting area that they have you in until they verify you are old enough to be in the main part. Once you get into the store part, its is open, smells AMAZING, you get not only greeted by the cutest little doggo but friendly smiles. Now this part is key...especially for me. I have ADHD, PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, and a few others..I am big on how people communicate not just as a customer but as someone looking for help. The lady we got was so ready to listen and I mean actually listen, she could relate and when asked for what in her opinion would be best...her answer was the least likely I was expecting. She didnt give me the im going to tell you most expensive because I want your money and this is business...no no no, this amazing woman went for what would actually help the problems I had while not being so cheap its bunk or so expensive I can't afford it. She was really about helping the person which In turn helps the business. This place has great stuff by the way...it did exactly what she said it would. Next time I make the 14 hour drive that way...I will be stopping in.

Super kind folks who seem to know their stuff too! The recommendations I were given have been amazing so far. Disposable vapes are a bit overpriced, which doesn't matter because their carts are very reasonable and they'll set you up with a battery and it's way better for the environment too ☮️🌍🍀 thank you!

Out of town visitor here and Nicky was awesome and helped me every step of the way even when I couldn’t decide what I wanted and I made him grab and drop probably three times but dudes vibes were immaculate and the entire vibe of the Depot was amazing 10/10 would go again (and probably will before I leave 😅)
