Local Cannabis Company

Great deals and very helpful staff. Did a phone order for quick pickup and last minute decided to switch an item and staff made it super easy and swift. Will def come back!

Jared was easy breezy, super chill, and hella kind. Especially patient in helping me narrow down my (usual) over zealous selection for what I was looking to spend today. Can’t ever go wrong at this establishment. Always an enjoyable experience. They must put something in the water here!

I am convinced the manager Savhanna is not of this world. The moment she asked, ‘What kind of experience are you looking for?’ the lights above seemed to shimmer, a choir of invisible angels sang, and time briefly stood still. Her knowledge of strains was so precise I half expected NASA to consult her for rocket fuel formulas. Every word she spoke felt like it was etched into stone tablets of wisdom. I didn’t just leave with flower—I left with a renewed sense of purpose, inner peace, and possibly a third eye. If Shakespeare had met Savhanna, every play would have been a sonnet in her honor. I have been to many dispensaries in the USA, Canada, and even Saudi Arabia so I have some wild stories about legendary budtenders (and managers), but Savhanna the manager deserves her own cinematic universe. Imagine Gandalf guiding Frodo, Gordon Ramsay explaining flavor, and Tony Robbins giving life advice—fused into one person behind a counter. When Savhanna described the terpene profile, I swear my ancestors nodded in approval. When she recommended a strain, I felt the universe itself aligning in my favor. Pot smokers only dream of this kind of guidance, but I lived it. Forget 5 stars—this review needs constellations named after Savhanna the manager. Allah Akbar

Super friendly. Help with with getting me what I needed. Quick service. Lovely experience. Thanks

Jared has been my budtender a few times and he’s been amazing every visit . He’s extremely knowledgeable and I truly enjoy my experience with him , and this is coming from an ex budtender I’m super impressed with his genuine customer service , and the fact he takes his time to ensure you leave out happy . Thank you Jared . From your fave Dread Head 🫶

I enjoy every visit here. I feel like there’s a solid rewards program, I get text messages about sales, everybody inside is also super nice. If you have any questions or need any recommendations, I’ve always been helped. I enjoy that they catered to the community. The customer service is good. & for being one of Santa Monica,‘s first dispensaries, I’m very happy to be a customer here.

Shout out to Savhanna for being helpful, knowledgeable, and courteous! She personally pointed me in the direction of an excellent sale on Sluggers. Never had a glass tipped pre-roll, and I might never go back regulars now, but I'm definitely going back to this store. Thanks!

Bryan was very nice. Very helpful and made me feel welcomed. Will definitely make this my new spot thanks to him.

Terrif neighborhood head (?) shop.........lotsa variety and warm and very welcoming......... Weedsters working there are very learned and a fun upbeat place... See Jared he will sort you out most excellently........ Hi kitty...........

Jordon guided me to the meds I needed. Love this joint! I recommend everyone in need checks this store out.

Service and selection are the two most important things for me when considering a purchase, and Local excels at both. Always friendly, knowledgeable and generous. 5 out of 5, no notes.

I am so sorry to report that I was given a jar of flower that had been opened. He just took that one and another one he recommended to the cash register, put them both in a bag. I had no reason to distrust him or this dispensary. I had asked for suggestions and took the two he suggested not inspecting the jars. When I got home I saw the seal had been broken.. there are some sketchy folks that go in there and if this was a demo they open to show customers, anyone might have touched it with fentanyl. I am too afraid to try it. I called and explained the situation, but they refused to exchange it for a fresh one with an intact seal. They were not pleasant about it. I am not a liar and I am a very easy to deal with customer who relies on their knowledge, doesn't waste their time and tips decently. I am out about $60 + dollars including tax and tip . As a senior on a tight budget, that is very hard to absorb. I feel it is their responsibility to be sure that what they hand me is sealed. I believe this to be their mistake. I just can't trust them anymore which makes me sad. I was happy to find this place. But they insinuated that I was lying , I am not. They are not to be trusted folks, be sure you check everything before you leave. They will not do the right thing when it is clearly their error. Management's attitude was ungracious and in bad form. They lost a good, easy customer. Why would i be lying if i just wanted to exchange it for sealed one? DUH..makes no sense. I see a few others on here have had the same problem . It is interesting that it is mainly women. I have to wonder about that, but still think it was just not checked or noticed by the bud tender and should have been. I will try it ..if something happens to me, they will hear from my attorney.

Terrible service. Refused to accept my temp license, even though I'm a regular. Not returning

my budtender was friendly and helped me pick out a few items. Prices are reasonable and they run specials. Would visit again.

DO NOT COME HERE FOR ANY ITEMS WHATSOEVER! Repeating it for the ones in the back.... AVOID AT ALL COSTS! Would leave less than one star if it was possible. Absolute clown show of a location with zero accountability. Products are mid tier or worse, the availability is the furthest thing from clearly communicated and their joke of of an online ordering system will do nothing but waste your time. These people have the audacity to look you in the face while telling you they sold the items you went out of your way to order on their stupid online system. Also incredibly rude and unprofessional when confronted about their mistakes. I'll happily be never returning again. Luckily there are tons of MUCH better options in the area.

Was previously a regular customer but the budtender was so rude today I won't be back. Also was not told they had a rewards program until after I spent like 2k here.

Customer service is great, the variety of products is excellent, it's easy, close to home, this is my new favorite shop.

Jordan was a great budtender! Very easy to choose and they had a great selection! Thank you

I have been coming here since they opened their doors and have never been disappointed in the products sold, or service provided. Yahyah has helped me a number of times and is always personable, professional and helpful. I love that there is convenient parking too. Great daily discounts, and it seems like the inventory is always expanding. Couldn't be happier to have found this spot!

Really good pen variety I consider myself a cart connoisseur as I only want to smoke the best stuff and they have the brands I like like cold fire and flavorade. Helpful staff too and it isn't too pricey considering where you are at .

Local is the spot to check out in Santa Monica! My boy Jared always leads me to exactly what I'm looking for, and the whole staff is so friendly! If you're looking for great weed selections and even better service, check out Local.

- Service: Kind and welcoming - Selection: Easy to find things and you can select what you want without having to go up to the front and ask for it (love being able to pick things up, see what I'm buying, and gauge if it's the right pick for me) - Value: Prices seem aligned with other dispensaries I've been to!

This place is great! Love the selection and staff, such lovely people~ And big congratulations to Ryan on her engagement she was such cool people as well!

Extremely poor customer services practice, does not care for the customer when a product wasn't up to par and did not care to hear the reason why it was defective, salt and pepper bearded manager has had no proper training when it comes to speaking with a customer to find a solution. Don't waste time, I'm working in SM for a few days and I've tried one delivery service and one dispo (this) and will NOT think about going to some trash dispensary out here.

Awesome folks, very friendly and helpful! Good selection too. Will definitely check it out again.

Local is an absolute disgrace. The only dispensary within walking distance of my home, and they have such obnoxiously rude and condescending staff that I will never shop there again. These imbeciles could have made thousands from my business if they could simply contain their contempt, but instead I received the most brazen abuse and ridicule I've ever encountered in a private business.

Pretty nice local dispensary in the Santa Monica that has a nice variety of products!

I used to love this dispensary but I bought a stiiizy pod and opened it and it's empty!!! Out $40 and they won't refund me or help at all :) Do not shop here unless you want to be scammed :)

The service is the worst I experienced. They left merchandise out of my bag and I live out of town. Twice they have recommended an item and it was supposed to be sativa and instead it was indica. Local staff lacks basic knowledge and are rude.

What a gem. This is the only dispensary in all of Santa Monica and the inventory selection is great. The pricing and flower selection is great.

Great service at the spot here at local got helped out pretty quick and was able to get my cheap pre's for affordability

Great selection, excellent vibe, very knowledgeable budtenders! Jared is awesome and hooked me up! Don't sleep on this place.

Great prices and products and great deals! Check out Abraham the bud tender for help!

Good place to get all my stufff. Ask for Jordan. I go here a lot a good place for locals.

Please note: medical only! The employee at the front was immediately up front and nice about this. But there aren't many recreational in the immediate area so it would have been nice to know this before we walked all the way there. Hope this helps others looking in the area

I really enjoyed this whole shopping experience the employees were very kind and easy to speak with about any questions I had.

Best dispensary ever w the best prices and quality. Highly recommend. I have been coming here since they opened and love it!

The parking and layout of this place was very difficult to navigate. There are much better places in Venice and West LA. I didn't like the vibe here it was not what I was looking for. Also had a very small selection. I thought their prescription rules were a ripoff.

Great spot. Clean and cool. Jordan was a great dude. Happy Santa Monica has opened up a dispensary.

We stopped in today for the first time and had a wonderful experience exploring the flower collection. Jared took excellent care of us and guided us through the entire selection. We had issues with our transaction and Jared went above and beyond to make sure we could get out the door with the product we needed at a price we could afford. Excellent customer service. We will be returning!

This place is horrible. Do not come here unless u are trying to spend an absurd amount of money. Taxes was absolutely insane with a plug and play pod and concentrate was 120!! Go to Xzibit's and get u 4-5 items for that price. You spend half on taxes other half on actual product

Finally a great dispensary in the area without ridiculous prices and taxes. Great location and selection of products. They still trying to figure out their reward program but some great deals already in place! Good job you guys!

Got there at 6:58 they would not let me in because they close at 7.. this was my first time visiting this shop and will def be my last..

Before you find out like I did, they have no return policy unless something is defective. Doesn't matter what the issue is. I accidentally purchased a disposable cartridge when I didn't need one. I just needed the cartridge without the battery. I didn't even make it back to my car before realizing (which was maybe 2 minutes) so I go to return it and get just the stand alone cartridge since their prices for disposables are already high as is. I am then told that it can't be returned or exchange no matter what when I haven't even opened the box I just simply misread the label. The product was the in the exact same way I walked out the store with it 2 min prior.Terrible service. Terrible prices. Terrible store. No wonder why it's empty

​The service was great with David. He knows his flowers and brands and helped me get the flower that helped me sleep.

Nice dispensary. Good selection. Friendly staff. Would recommend! Glad they opened a dispensary in Santa Monica. Prices aren't too bad either.

The fact that they call this local cannabis shop is absolutely sad. Came 10mins before they close and everyone at this store is refusing us service. We only wanted to get something really quick and then this girl who had short hair and blonde highlights started shouting just to tell us to leave. Sad that this is the type of weed store they open nearby our place. Definitely never coming back again. We ended up going to Cookies in Brentwood and everyone there is so helpful, nice and super chill staff. Such a good vibes and welcoming people. Its 7 mins away from this place and so worth the drive!

Thank god this place opened because every where else in Santa Monica is so overpriced. This spot has a good sleeve toon and good prices. Friendly staff. Love.

Like the convenience of shopping so close to my home! he shop is inviting and the crew super friendly. thank you.

only Medical service. Selection available online. Mediocre value. They will sign California residents up for a card.

so rude. if you do not have your phone with you they will not even talk to you. they demand a rx from doctor before you can buy. another way to skim money of you. of course, they provide the rx for $$$$
