The Higher Path Dispensary and Delivery

Overall, I had a great experience my first time shopping with The Higher Path. I placed an order for delivery with a staff member named Claire. She was very thorough and helpful throughout the entire process of my order from beginning to end. Even the delivery itself was very discreet and quick and the driver was very friendly. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, will be shopping here again for sure.

Big, BIG props to the Higher Path! I had an issue this week that needed to be addressed with management. Wrote an email and got a call THE NEXT DAY from Jessica, the store manager. She was AWESOME, super responsive, and compassionate. She took the issue very seriously and told me it was being addressed THAT DAY. I've always had great experiences with this dispensary. They take their customer service very seriously. My experience this week increased my support of this business even more. Thank you, Jessica and staff!

This is one of the only dispensaries that feels wholesome and welcoming. The staff is very attentive, knowledgeable and over all delightful. Steve was an excellent help and gave amazing recommendations along with personality and top sense of humor. Thanks for being great y'all.

When it comes to the higher path, it beats the competition. Well educated staff, especially Daniel. Highly appreciate his help. Can’t go wrong with the higher paths delivery services too !! Def check them out

1st time at this dispo & it’s amazing! It feels welcoming & it’s more of a market vibe where you can walk around & take a look at the weed to take your time! Daniel was a great help! Thank you dude, you rock!

I have been here a few times and they’re always extremely helpful and there’s always new fun items. Paul was great and I loved the recommendations. He also told me about their delivery service which I will definitely be using in the future!!

If you like to get your lean on, you need to come to this spot. It's the best cannabis dispensary in the west coast imo. They always have specials going on, and you can even get a house pre roll for a dollar! There are lots of variety of strains, as well as all types of edibles, nugs, pre rolls, and even topical ointments that are a miracle for pain relief! Really good staff who don't annoy you or hover, but are very knowledgeable & know their stuff. I'm an indica or indica leaning hybrid girlie & I'm happy to announce that they don't just leave us dry. I highly recommend midnight phonk as a pre roll! Most stores are sativa leaning, and we're an afterthought. Higher path is right there for us 🙏🏾 . Also cool is the smokers lounge & event space they have next door. Great for open mic night & things like spoken word. Just a great spot all around for those who enjoy terpines!

I love this dispensary!!! AC was very helpful and was another Anthony in the world here to save me from my rosin scarcity in my life. If you’re looking for an amazing experience and an awesome dispensary come to the higher path and see AC.

Love! Best customer service. Best prices. Best products! Everytime I go, find parking, opened till late, best selection.

Huge selection, great deals, helpful staff. Shoutout to Paul for helping me and offering top notch service. First time here and wow they have a huge selection. I'm not familiar with the half of the store dedicated to smoking, but more familiar with the edibles side and the infused drinks. Lots of options and very spacious. You grab a basket and load up whatever you want, unlike other places where you may need an associate to mark down your selection. For payment, I recommend debit over credit. Security requires links and a credit card fee, and even my Apple Pay debit was declined but the physical card worked. So my recommendation is a physical debit card for this transaction. To be clear, I am very glad they have significant security and it seems the physical debit is the best balance of both. Good for this shop and their payment partners keeping our info secure!

On multiple occasions change received has been incorrect assuming staff is stealing money for tips. Least welcoming weed shop I've ever been to. Pricing seems to change every time I have visited. Will never come back to this shady business.

This is my go to spot. Lots of stuff to choose from and there's always good deals happening. The staff is always ready to answer questions you have, which is hard to come by at dispensaries.

The Higher Path is the go-to local dispensary here in Sherman Oaks! I've been going here for years and they have the best deals. Everyday there is a different deal (ex: 10% off prerolls on Saturdays) or just using my rewards points to save. The budtenders are really knowledgeable and personable which makes the browsing experience easier. Each time I go, there's always a unique, chill vibe that makes me feel at ease.

Been loyally going to THP for 6+ years, even though I live close to DT. The last few months the employees have been WEIRD. It's now become normal to arrive for a parking lot pickup and to just simply be ignored by the workers. If they aren't offering parking lot pickup anymore, I'd rather them just say that. There is this one weird blond lady in the parking lot who is always helllllllla rude. I was there recently and was in the lot for about 45 minutes (With no other customers) before receiving my product. And even then, my order was wrong and I was overcharged and didn't receive all my items. Used to be my favorite place I would refer everyone to with the coolest staff, but now the staff is just pretty blasé and rude. V sad and disappointed.

Great selection Excellent customer service. Prices were so so but I felt well taken care of.

Yelp doesn't offer enough stars to accurately rate this dispensary and the staff. This is an absolutely beautiful storefront and I don't know the name of the gent who checked my ID at the front but he was lovely and friendly and welcoming! When I entered the dispensary, I was greeted by Paige who was patient in helping me pick out what I was looking for and very informative. Also just totally lovely to chat with. I wound up purchasing a 6pk of Higher Path's brand (support local) of pre rolls and they are by far the best I've ever smoked. They are rolled SO PERFECTLY!! Easy to light, you don't have to collapse your lungs trying to get that first drag, but a nice slow smoke, and delicious flavor. Extremely reasonable price points, especially given the quality of the brands they're carrying! I received a free t-shirt, a first time discount a had a great experience- will 1,000% be back both here and next door to The Other Path!! Ps- if paying by card, ask to add tip BEFORE credit card transaction is complete. I didn't realize and now I'll just have to go back next week and buy something else from Paige- I got you this time ;)

I stopped by The Higher Path today and it was dope (literally) The store had a handful of Clients and I was amazed that DERRIC, approached me and asked if I needed any help with his happy go lucky attitude, he was beyond helpful and showed me all the edibles Higher Path had to offer, I was overwhelmed with all his knowledge, kindness and most of all patience with me! DERRIC, needs to be recognized for all his People Skills

I just came here to get a pre-roll and some edibles, and I love the new setup of the place. This used to be my go-to place when I want a pre-roll. I've noticed the last few times I've gone there, my card declines every single time! I have to try multiple cards until the payment process goes through. Today, none of my cards worked and they said they weren't excepting credit cards. I was told to use the ATM to withdraw cash, and the machine was out of service. I sat down and waited for them to fix the ATM, and after it was fixed, I tried withdrawing cash, and it still didn't work. I got so frustrated I just walked out and no one even noticed. This issue has been happening for a long time, and I'm not sure why they're not changing their payment processing system. They also charge way more for their payment processing fee than other vendors. I am shocked that the staff only offered me free matches for all my time waiting for a payment to go through. Every time I go to this dispensary, it's a frustrating experience! Almost every other dispensary that I go to allows for credit cards and debit cards to be used, and I never have any issues. I rarely leave Yelp reviews, but this experience was my last straw. I love this store, and I love their selection, but they need to get it together with the payment processing system. After I left, I walked to the nearest dispensary and was in and out in literally two minutes! Get it together guys!!!

They seem to always have some sort of deal going on, so be sure and check their website. Great variety of all things cannabis! Lately I've taken advantage of buying online and picking up. It's so easy and fast. The service is always very helpful. Market price points with a knowledgeable team. Free parking in the back and meters on the street.

Wow, what a treat on Ventura! Very cool green jungle vibe here. Super friendly, knowledgeable and laid back staff. No pushyness here, they're ready when you are. They have a very diverse selection of products to ensure you get what you need, how you need it. The daily specials are a plus and worth organizing visits around. Everything seems fairly priced. We will return!

when I first started coming to this dispensary in 2022 they were super friendly and sweet every time I came in. Recently, for the past few months EVERY time I come in no matter who's at the front desk they're rude and grumpy. I come in with such a great attitude and leave feeling irritated. whatever's happing with you guys I hope it gets better

Great selection and ambience here, but the five star rating comes from them hitting all of the marks during a recent tough customer service issue I had with them. I had made an online order and received one incorrect item and one entirely missing item. I didn't think to look through the bag until I got home, which obviously puts the store in a tough spot as they can't verify visually that I had been shorted (which, no worries - it happens) I called them and they made no issue with correcting the issue. In a regulated industry like this, it would have not been unexpected to be told to f*ck off by other stores, while they kept my pre-paid funds. The higher path continues to be a community staple that treats customers amazingly!

Beautiful space. Everyone that works there is extremely smart, knowledgeable, and friendly. They have the best selection and the store is laid out lovely.

Best dispensary ever. Been going here basically since they opened. All of the employees are amazing. Love the customer appreciation day and daily discounts. Shout out to Greg, helped me out last couple of visits. But everyone is amazing and knowledgeable

Adore the staff, they're so sweet and dog friendly. However, the taxes at this place is ridiculous. Go to the shops around the area, you only pay $2/$4 in taxes. But at higherpath, you get basically a $10-$15 tax depending on your order. And don't even get me started on the additional card fee that no one ever tells you about. Nice Staff and pretty atmosphere, that's about it...

Had a great experience AGAIN. Highly recommend. Tristan & Tori next door were both great. I love the vibe. It's not at all tense. Even security was friendly. Entry is still secure but you're not treated like a violent felon when you enter. Selection is also solid. 10/10. This is the place. Come give them your business.

Tory , Rocky, Tony are the most knowledgeable, nicest bud tenders! And the higher path really takes care of their customers and gives you great deals, and are very loyal to us, so we're loyal to them!!

a text from my friend c.h.: "The Higher Path cannabis store, I love the name" yes, how awesome is the name! i've been on a look out for another establishment since the one i'd tried out couple of times went out of business. it dawned on me that this establishment is visited by my friend s.p., so it's a must try. i'd entered through the front of the store and was greeted by two men: one who needed to see my i.d. and the one who secured the place. they buzzed me in and found myself in a partitioned room where i was able to see the products. there were several clienteles waiting to be served. the wait wasn't too bad. i would say it was about 10 min. besides, i was formulating many questions regarding cbd & thc and its ratio for pain management. jimmy greeted me with a warm smile and was very informative and knowledgeable. he had advised me that a one to one ratio would be a great start and then take it from there. it's all about trial and error. what may work for one person may not for others. after the consultation, i was comfortable purchasing few items. if you need to try, you must try "the higher path."

I love this place. From the moment you walk in, it's awesome. Beautiful lobby. Friendly security check. A quality T-shirt gift for first timers + a discount. Discount galore every single day of the week. Great prices and quality products. Awesome art work inside. An owner who is passionate and who the staff speaks highly of. I can see why. And the best part is that staff. All the budtenders are kind and knowledgeable and you walk in feeling comfortable and you leave w a smile bc they're just awesome. I pass by a lot of dispensaries on my way to the higher path, but once you go you will understand why I dont go anywhere else.

After almost 2 years of being a loyal customer-I'M DONE. Being nearly ASSAULTED by another customer while the staff DID NOTHING-and then blamed me is enough. Not only am I writing this review sadly, but I am filing a police report and alerting the proper authorities about this incident. Today this happened: I stopped by the store as I was driving by at mid-day there was no line and plenty of parking. Thought it would be a quick in-and-out. I walked up with my small sweet dog and handed my ID to the female employee (20s, long curly hair). WEIRD that she asked me 3 times for my phone number, despite holding my identification in her hand. I simply asked why she was asking for my phone number, as I have never been asked before and she had my ID and my info CLEARLY IN THE SYSTEM. I only asked because several times lately there have been changes and changes with the credit card machines and hadn't been inside recently). Then I heard the only other person in the waiting area repeating back my phone number like a total creep (this guy clearly did not have a valid form of I.D. because he was not allowed into the dispensary and was waiting for his friend to come out with her bag of weed-which he snatched out of her hands once we got outside and the incident occured.) Legal? I don't think so. Back to the incident: I asked the employee for my ID back and said "I don't want to deal with this guy-I will come back later" and headed for door. I heard this man who seemed, frankly, like he had a serious drug problem or mental health issue, saying 'RELAX B*tch, relax b*tch' in a very hostile way-and I replied something to the effect of "What did you say to me?" He then charged at me, running out the door towards me, and I started screaming for help from people on the street. I screamed for the female employee to get the security guard-enter THIS GUY in photo. He then watched as the derelict customer opened up his water bottle and threw at me covering my phone with water in the doorway of the Higher Path. THE SECURITY GUARD did nothing and then told me that since he didn't 'touch me' that there was nothing for him to do and I was the problem. He said the guy "was a chill dude." He watched the guy commit a crime, damaging my phone (not sure if it's broken or not yet). Then I waited outside by my car and got HARRISON + JESSICA, (the Manager who refused to come out and speak with me) on phone and both stood by the guy with the gun (in photo). IN FACT, Jessica tried to GASLIGHT ME and say that none of what I said was true because on video tape she did not see his hands touch me. He ATTEMPTED TO ASSAULT ME AND I GOT OUT OF THE WAY IN TIME-AND THEN VANDALIZED MY PROPERTY. That's where I draw the line. The ONLY OTHER TIME I have ever had any kind of negative incident here, it involved one of the security guards (which I reported and was encouraged by a female manager, the one with partially shaved head-don't know her name, and told to 'write a negative review about him' on this site so that THE OWNERS/HIGHER UPS would pay attention. Apparently he had other complaints. OH, AND I KNOW people who are 'in the cannabis industry' who will want to hear about this. GOOD LUCK. Oh, and spare me your 'cut and pasted' auto-response or saying like you did in other negative reviews that you 'reviewed the footage and your security guard/employee did nothing wrong.'

We came back and they totally fixed the mistake, owner was kind to make it right! A quality place who cares about your business. Thank you!!!

We were in town from the Bay Area and am so glad I yelped the Higher Path before leaving. The staff is so welcoming and loved that we got a free tshirt for being first time buyers and also came in on 1.00 preroll Friday! If you are in the area give them a try, you will get service with a smile, something that seems to be rare these days.

Alexis was flabbergastingly efficient and informative not to mention sweet and patient. I'm not a big smoker and most smoke shops get annoyed when you asked questions but I drive farther to get here knowing I'll get excellent service!

Superb service! They gave me a free shirt since it's my first time coming. One of the coolest shops ive ever

Additional review. Im a regular customer here because of its proximity to my home. I'm getting real sick and tired of the "rounding" policy this place has. They charge an absurd fee to use credit and debit cards, so I decided to just use cash. I ordered online, received a confirmation and an order total/ $33.51. So, I walked down there (I live right behind the shop) with EXACT change only to be told that my order is $34.00. I said "Sorry, your site said my order was actually $33.51." The employee said "well we don't have any change here" to which I replied "oh I don't need change, I brought the exact amount." Then I hear, "sorry we don't actually use change here, so we round up." Me:"Uh, you round up?" Her: "Yeah. We round up." Me: "But the order is $33.51, right?" Her: "Yeah." Me: "so why do I have to pay more?" Her: "Because we don't deal with change." Me: "That's not how money works. If I worked at Starbucks and you ordered a coffee and I told you it's $3.52, how much should you have to pay for that coffee?" Her: "I don't wanna have this conversation right now. Do you have $34 or not?" Me: "No, I have $33.51 which is the amount of money I owe you. If you don't wanna deal with my change just because you don't feel like it or it's because of your 'system' then round it DOWN." Seriously, get your s**t together, THP. And stop ripping off your clients.

Great service selection. Product is a little too overwhelming sometimes, but the love and the morals for a wonderful experience for the customer is always there.

Absolutely incredible . One of the only places where you go and leave come back a bunch - try a buncha different shit And every time You're just like Ok, well they say they're number 1 People do Papers do Ratings do Maybe we just simply all do, because it is what it is. This is a rare instance of the most popular being the best. This is like if we went back to when Britney and Christina were always 1 and 2 on the charts - but gave Britney Christina's wailing ability , or gave Christina the baby one more time make over. This is the best of both worlds The cake and eating it too. This place is the genie in the bottle hitting you baby one more time. Straight up. 5000/5. Bananas. Plantains if you like those more.

THE GOOD: -Very friendly staff. Everyone was really nice and my budtender (Teresa) was patient, helpful, and knowledgeable. -Free T-shirt for first-time customers, along with 10% off. -They also have all sorts of daily deals happening as well as discounts for online reviews. -Charming interior. -Like most dispensaries, they can't accept credit cards. Not clear on all the details, but it's basically because marijuana is still illegal on a federal level. In addition to cash, they do accept debit cards which is a plus. THE BAD: -Wasn't super thrilled about their stock. Didn't have too many sativa disposable pens available (two options) and both were priced at $50 plus. They didn't have any $35 disposable pens in stock (which is what I was looking for).

No the bud-tender did not match the product down. So if he took my money, then systematically marked it down then that's even a bigger problem for you and your business. I would have no reason to state any of the above had it been an even exchange. Other than he still had an attitude about me wanting to do the exchange. So there's that. & from my experience if you're a regular at a bar they're not going to card you every time. They know your face they know you're a repeat customer. Nor does the liquor store by my house card me as they've carded me several times before and now they know who I am. To me, both interactions were completely unnecessary and instead of acknowledging what I'm saying all I hear is deflection. I've been going to the higher path for over a year now and at periods on a weekly basis. There's no justification for any of the above but not worries. I'll take my business elsewhere.

Can I give less stars? Massively overpriced, a ridiculous check in system that attempts to disguise the long wait. Why even let customers in before you can assist them? All this for dry weed. Smh Sweet Flower down the street is just as gentrified but has never made me wait thirty minutes. Taking my impropriety elsewhere from now on.

I love THP! This shop is the experience I had been looking for. It is incredibly well decorated and spacious and airy. The lobby is cool and they have some cool backdrops for photos as well. The place feels secure and welcoming. The staff are knowledgeable and super friendly. Recently I ordered online because of the new protocols for health and safety - which I followed to the letter because I so appreciate the service they are providing. The website ordering experience is absolutely on par with the in-store experience. Easy to find everything and the order is ready to pick up very quickly. Don't forget to tip!

People are going to know what's up. First of all, they are all about that bullshit. They are so boughie there it makes me want to knock their heads together to get somehow smarter than what is natural, just like Moses parted the sea. It would have to take a miracle for this place to ever get a handle on any mid-late 20s and 30 year olds as clients who even come back if it was to become the last dispensary on Earth. Waiting room was for the dead lady who could only breath through a full on oxygen facial covering mask machine leading into her via esophagus. This place says the wait isn't long but if they take long then at least you have this impending doom of a faux-tree cluttered room that looks like one single piece of furniture from every police auction was purchased separately. And still, they are hella boughie! Can you believe the nerve of their vibe?!? Okay, so let's get down to the nitty gritty. The products are cluttered, on top of each other, likely lost without their knowledge, and improbable to find anything at all, actually. Customer service is non-existent. Maybe I should have logged into ebay and bought a full face oxygen mask and machine first(?). Can I get some GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING assistant here on aisle YZV? No. I am still being my sweet self and waiting patiently, because truth be told, I am a patient individual- always have been and everyone notices it. So for anyone who isn't just like that naturally might end up in a Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler movie, probably called, Anger Managment II. This place gives you bad vibes. Like, damn, people die, yo. Or, sober, wow; life is so fragile. Jesus Christ. Who wants to go visit the chill ass dispensary when there is an 11 foot tall security guard both in the waiting room and inside the clinic(?) Yes, you heard me correctly. They have two armed guards. This place is on Ventura, in Sherman Oaks-Studio City. The shop isn't on 18th Street nor Crenshaw. This was such a bad disaster of a business that I couldn't honestly even compare 911 to it. (jk) Final thoughts are these: They tell you nothing about the weed strains and cannot even suggest what is a Sativa dominant hybrid or what it is. Also, they do not weigh anything in front of you and whatever you smelled or chose, is in the back and pre-packaged in a dangerous ass slice your hand apart while high tuna can. Like can opener type of shit. The weed is bunk and the worst I have ever had. Okay, WAIT! Stop, stop: I take it back! I called and they have my favorite Sativa spawn of OG Purple and Cookies- CANDYLAND. Two other dispensaries, including Puffy Delivery and MedMen are out of stock, and it'll be gone til November (Wyclef was manning both telephones jk). This place was actually like, legit the shit. Saw me so fast, Justin was awesome. Bought Green Crack and a Pineapple Express CBD cartridge. I am so high right now and have been allll dayo for yayo (not Yayo, though. For all you squares that means Cocaine.) and that high was the most Indica Sativa I ever did smoke. If I stop writing, I'll probably just go right to sleep. Anyway, they played cool jellies like "Return of the Mac" and I'm down.

To combat my anxiety I did some research on cannabis products and found a dispensary near me (which happened to be Higher Path). Having never been to a dispensary, I expected it to be a Bob Marley themed dungeon with Cheech and Chong types behind the counter. This goes to show how ignorant I was. The space was clean and bright with very professional and knowledgeable staff. I told them I was a noob and they hooked me up with some free swag, then walked me through my various options. I walked out with a bag full of goodies and had a wonderful experience. Since then, they've helped me find the right strain / dosage to manage my anxiety and I've been feeling a whole hell of a lot better! If you're nervous to try it out, like I was, don't be. Ignorance and misconceptions will ruin your life. Walk in and learn something. It might help improve your life. Or you could just get baked for the fun of it, I don't judge.

This place is great. Wonderful selection, great deals if you're strategic, beautiful spot, most of the budtenders are top notch. It's our regular joint.

Unbelievably long waits every day. And incredibly rude employees Zach K. Literally provided the worst customer service ever, after i waited 30 minutes. There are many other places to go with better service. This place is absolutely mismanaged and the employees are the worst ive ever seen.

Everything was legit!!! And they gave me a free T-shirt!!! Definitely my top favorite spot in LALA

Atmosphere is a 10 out of 10 everyone that works there is knowledgeable and extremely helpful/Nice. Definitely worth the 40min drive!

The Higher Path is absolutely wonderful! They have a Compassion Program that is amazing. My wife's going through cancer treatments and we got on their program and they've helped us so much with products for depression, anxiety and sleep. They help people with severe illness and veterans. Mason and staff are so kind. And a shout out to all the volunteers that help with this program. It's worth checking out. I can't thank you guys enough.

Dont get your weed from this place. As a first time visitor , the boy in the parking lot threw my driver's license into my car on purpose and the security guard two handedly, flipped me off. Why , you ask? Because I parked in "the wrong spot" even though it was unmarked. I went to the place 1 block away and I hope I will forget the experience I had to go through.

This place is so great. I've been coming here since they opened and they've never let me down. If you come here you won't regret it!

Love it here!! I had an issue with a cart and Harrison was so nice and handled the issue like a pro! I love the community vibes in here and will definitely be back!

Highly recommended place. Cleanest Dispensaries I've been to, people who works here is very helpful. Thumbs up to you guys!!!

Obsessed with them here! Incredibly helpful for all familiarity levels with flower and tools! It is such a positive experience and they are very pro-saving and pro-customer.

Wellll... I wanted to like this place. I got some good recommendations from the iChat on their website. When I went to pick up my order (after receiving a text that my order was ready) the people inside behind the glass seemed very confused. My order was not ready. Some hippie chick shooed me away from the window and they scrambled to put my order together. No words of "sorry, it'll just be a second" or "one moment please"-- there was a very off putting air. I'm a first time customer and I also didn't receive the "fabulous free t shirt" they promised. Not that I would wear it, but still. Also-- if you don't have cash--your order will be rounded up to the nearest five dollars and then they add an additional $3 fee. Not worth it.

Higher path is THE best! Everyone is the nicest and the prices are fair af! Jianna and Alexis helped me today and they rock

Derrick helped me and he was super knowledgeable and patient. He was able to address my many questions with zero pushback, and loads of compassion. He never pushed a product. He listened to what I was seeking and found all of the in stock options to offer me. Overall, the entire staff is great. Very kindhearted people. It's a very easy breezy experience. And it's awesome that next door they also have The Other Path which is pure CBD. Lots to choose from. The space is airy and clean.

I'm no expert but this place makes you happy from minute you walk through door until your check out. Everyone working there is happy to help guide you without being pushy. I even got a free T-shirt.
