It was my first time at a dispensary and it couldn’t have went more smooth. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful. I was helped by Alaina and she was the sweetest, and got me the exact products I wanted. 10/10

Originally I liked this store. They were always so helpful to medical. Now I don't think I'll be returning. If you buy too much of 1 thing they'll stop putting it on discount and if you ask they'll lie or give misinformation. I've checked the website for a week for the specific strain iI use it's the 1 strain that hasn't been on discount when it usually is and I would know because I only use that specific strain. When I called and asked I was given misinformation and it still hasn't been on discount. Coming from Washington state I'm not use to paying taxes and not only does the state tax, the prices here are extremely high and if I'm being honest the discounts they offer aren't helpful if you use a lot. You're better off growing your own plants. I won't return to this location again. Everyone isn't smoking for fun and to have medical patients paying high prices for small amounts of weed is really disappointing too me. I've started going to Beyond in Bloomington, which is a 45 minute drive vs 15 minutes. We've been using Nuera since we came here from Washington state but I refuse to spend more money than necessary especially right after the holidays. Hope this helps someone.

There are different reasons I like this location. The store is in a very convenient place, they have a great selection of products, and my favorite reason is…the staff. They are very knowledgeable about everything you need in the store, they are also very kind and compassionate. They always make my visit pleasant and I appreciate that. My latest visit was with Kaia, she is awesome! I send anyone with question or anyone looking to purchase anything to the staff at Nuera because I know they will have a great experience ☺️
