This was the first club I went into after receiving my card. The staff was very friendly with me and that was a big plus. They helped me completely through the process. The menu had a good amount of variety, with 8ths priced from $20 to $60. However, I did feel a bit rushed to make a selection once I was at the counter. Otherwise this place was great. They let you smoke inside too.

I originally got my prescription through BPG in 2000. Patient numbers were low and I was actually "recruited" to be patient. This was before the beloved founder passed away. BPG has survived in the same location for many years now and you have to give them their props. They feel they've earned the right to be snooty sometimes. Great counter staff though!! I too saw the pouty woman at the front upon my last visit to the club, but that All Star White Widow (in a glass medicine jar for $65) was all worth it! Delicious and mindblowing! Uhhh this Grandaddy H20 pressed keif- not so impressed- will have to go for some butane hash next time. BPGs lines can be really long, but like I said, thy've earned their good reputation among patients, and is the only place one can medicate on premisise in the east bay.

Smoke shop a def plus!! I always like to buy a new glass peice with a really good strand- tastes so crisp! Hate having to hit two shops to do so. Want to taste your stuff before you go? Ask to borrow grinder and roll one up with their free papes- ANY kind you want!! From pineapple to pure "Raw" papes. or use their volcanos! This place has always been an absolute playground for me! Love the community smoke atmosphere, you'll feel like you've left here and are someplace free! :-D See you there!

This is an excellent dispensary offering an “Amsterdam” experience as waterpipes or vaporizers are provided for patient use in a lounge area with free coffee. There is a wide variety and price-range of meds, the staff is very helpful and they sell smoking devices and books and magazines about medical cannabis. Two thumbs up!

The Berkeley Patients Group happens to be one of the most professional MMDs I've ever been to. It is a positive environment and the staff tries 100% to help you find and understand all that you need to know as a patient. This is definitely my favorite dispensary to stop in at. A plus is the awesome security they have outside. It makes you feel safe and protected. It is so awesome!!

If you like dispensaries that allow for smoking, this may be the place for you. And while the selection may be good, some of the "care-givers" are less than compassionate. There's a sour woman that performs customer in-take, and the shop won't accept even debit charges under ten dollars.

I also took part in a women's group at Berkeley Patients Group, run by a dynamic advocate who did a great job, but was canceled under suspicious circumstances.

Bottom line, Berkeley Patient's Group has a few bad vibes.
