    The staff is always nice and helpful

  2. Cfogg35

    I always come here they have great product but the online ordering process was not great and they didn’t have my order ready so I had to wait anyway the online menu is sometimes different from the menu when you get inside the employees here are very nice and friendly they make you feel like you are In good hands I will recommend this dispensary too all my family and friends I really like the point system that you can use anytime you won’t thanks MWC Family see you soon

  3. KrissyGoGo

    Great location, great staff!!!!!

  4. dctribe12

    Not only are the staff incredibly knowledgeable, but they’re also friendly and accommodating. I’m a big fan.

  5. Ashak

    great people product & process

  6. alekzalekz

    Lovely place, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Very good selection, especially for CBD-rich flower.

  7. IndustriousStoner

    MWC gives you the whole enchilada: conveniently located, discrete, and mellow, with none of the chaos typical of pharmacies. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable in helping find the right strain of medecine for what ails you.

  8. phnx42

    This place does not have a good system in place. They barely have inventory and restrict you to only buy one gram at a time. This becomes problematic because their prices are extremely high. If they have 4 strains and you can only buy 1g of each its 4 for $100 which is highway robbery. It has been like this for at least 4 month and there is no end in site. You are better off with another dispensary or sticking to old school methods

  9. Ps3725

    Best Buds in town. Nice, friendly atmosphere. Workers are very knowledgeable and are up on the newest gadgets. Go once and you’ll keep going. They make you feel like family!

  10. corhones

    They are always helpful and today they went above and beyond with helping. Big kudos to the 8th St staff. My loyalty lies with them. Again thanks for all your help.

  11. Jennoro

    Awful experience.

    My budtender acted like I was a bother. I asked about their shatter and he pointed to a wall and left it at that. I felt unimportant, rushed, and didn’t get everything I wanted. At one point while I was looking through the menu and asking about stuff he said, aEURoeyou’re better off just telling me what you want and I’ll just get it.aEUR I’M A CUSTOMER! Show and sell me some of your wares!
    A customer told me about Moonsticks and for what I intended to buy and the kind of service I’m used to really made MWC look bad. I bought 4 prerolls and the quality was shoddy! For $14 I only got .5 grams and the paper was loose and cramped on the preroll.

    Two positives, the front desk receptionist was friendly and warm. Another budtender (didn’t catch their name but they had brown hair) was pretty cool as well.

    Never again. I’ll drive up to MD or use Leafedin.

  12. Bigswole83

    Very home warming environment with knowledgeable staff!

  13. Mzpurpledank

    I have been coming to this dispensary for over a year! Every single time I come, every one is friendly, respectful and kind. They offer recommendations, the staff members are knowledgeable of the various strains and weigh everything in front of you. They also have a wide variety of strains to choose between. And what I love the most… there is never a long line. Thanks for everything you do!

  14. Krojas920

    Great customer service! Made me feel welcomed and walked me through the whole process. Love this place

  15. Jspikes

    The employees are very friendly and knowledgeable.

  16. mdward77

    After at least a year’s hiatus, I have renewed my medicinal card with MWC. The service is wonderful and the location is convenient.

  17. timwooten

    Great staff, helpful and polite. Happy to help with any questions you have. Fun and laid back atmosphere.

  18. Bowdahlife

    I like MWC. Granted the prices can be a little higher than other locations but the people and the service is always on point. Plus there’s typically a solid variety of strains, at various price points. I tend to opt for the strains that don’t top out at 25 a G or 85 an 8th and it works out just fine! Current favorites: Ed Rosenthal, medijuana, sweetest taboo and sour Diesel #4.

  19. Bluevirus

    Member from nearly day one-
    Best in class-
    Staff is amazing and know their products.
    They have take. The to learn and know me and my needs and it’s not just me, every customer I meet feels the same.
    Five Stars!

  20. guswoo

    the greatest staff,we’ll informed and they take the time to make sure u make the best decision for your medication.

  21. DVA

    I like this location because of its clean, clinical, and professional style. Learning from the staff there each time I visit to sample more variety is an experience that is enhanced by their knowledge of product and years of experience in the medical cannabis industry.

  22. brukshut

    conveniently located

  23. Mdeal

    The staff is outstanding. The dispensary is always evolving and updating to give us a multitude of choices. Leafy website sucks. Most frustrating website ever. User UNFRIENDLY. Makes preorder almost impossible.

  24. emanondc

    Love the people here. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff.

  25. DenverMack

    I love this place! Everyone is super nice and knows their stuff. I recently put in a order for pick up and it literally was ready in 10 minutes. Thank you guys for everything!

  26. melliep1015

    Super friendly and knowledgeable staff as well as lots of product variety. Highly recommend!

  27. Precious123

    Pre rolls are dry and have zero potency. Very dY~z need to go back to Tacamo for better service and attention to my needs. They move slow getting you in and act too fast to fill your order which discourages communication

  28. jwmcknig

    I like it here! Everyone’s always super nice, and if they’re out of one product, they always have a great recommendation for another. Also sometimes you get free stuff!

  29. fatrodney

    Nice clean place friendly staff

  30. ladiedutchess

    deatiled label chillax environment.
    friendly people knowledgeable on strains
    they will build you a specific strain using their other flowers that will have the same affect of your favorite flower.

  31. Omarthomas

    I simply love MWC the staff is the best. Always my first choice.

  32. WillPe

    I don’t think you can get better than this. Both the location and staff are great. They really know their products.

  33. Beastjunt

    It has been such a pleasure to say that MWCDC is my dispensary… I personally do not have experience from another dispensary, but MWC is what I think of as the ideal place to properly learn about the Cannabis Program, consult with professionals and of course purchase product.

    Everyone on the staff is so helpful and knowledgeable and their system of having people wait in the newly renovated lobby while customers finish up, so it never gets too crowded and there are always 1 or 2 to 1 staff to customer.

    MWC also has a fantastic selection that is always changing, and their online menu is a great way to peruse the daily, and you can even order online for same day pick-up.

    Metropolitan Wellness Center also has one of the coolest updated websites, and a mobile version that is just as near!

  34. ry.geiger00

    The bud is decent. I’m disappointed that they don’t have any concentrates (wax/shatter/budder) or edibles. That’s not really their fault as they are trying to catch up with demand since DC decriminalized. Essentially any condition is approved, which means gardens are having a rough time keeping up, I think. There are only 3 dispensaries and gardens in the district. They helped me do my application from start to finish.

    The place is hard to find. It’s not advertised from the street at all, which I can see being a great thing for people who really concerned about confidentiality, but it’s also really difficult to find where you’re going. It’s on the 2nd floor of a building advertised for fixing cell phones.

    Prices are super high compared to other states’ medical programs.

    They have had 2 strains of bud the last 3 days. When I went yesterday they were down to 1 and said they wouldn’t be getting more until Monday.

    It’s nice that there is a whole wall of smoking accessories in case you need it, and having a section for patients to roll j’s on their own (if they want) using MWC grinders and then your own papers.

    So far it’s been a pretty good experience. My only complaint is the same complaint everyone has: lack of product, but that’s really district wide.

  35. rumian

    After a year at this place, i had to lower my review. Love the people and the location. However, prices are WAY higher than any other dispensary in dc. $85 per gram vs most others charge around $60 per gram. These are the same strains as every where else in dc. Shop around before deciding to join here.

    I informed the dispensary that I was changing dispensaries due to the price differences. They sent me an email back saying they take pricing very seriously, and a manager would get back to me. They never did.

    Also, if you preorder online, note that you’ll get a lot more stems in your flowers than if you go in and order and they pack it in front of you.

  36. southerncuppatea

    All around great place, great people, great service! Fast, friendly and comfortable atmosphere.

  37. harmonicad

    From my very first visit until now my experience at metropolitan wellness center have all been great the staff is knowledgeable of their products and their patients needs the staff is fun and know you by name I’ve love that I’ve enjoyed a lot of their products

  38. dezoel

    its-very-good. located close-to home
    the folks are awesome

  39. Aurora20032

    Staff is knowledgeable, answers every question, and makes you feel welcomed. Feels like a family environment.

  40. MyBUDdy

    Awesome. Friendly. Knowledgeable. Would love to see social events for patients (if possible).

  41. ChloeP77

    This is one of the best experiences that I’ve had. I love the people and the strains they recommend for me. Everyone is so helpful in this place and they take the time out to actually assist you no matter how many questions you have.

  42. ccarol813

    It’s the bomb and they carry the bomb! The friendliest and most well informed dispensary in town.

  43. mikehershdotcom

    Wonderful dispensary. Friendly knowledgeable staff. Great selection. Good deals. Loyalty reward program gives great bonuses.

  44. bcp429

    Man oh man…the residents is Dc should really kniw how lucky they are to have a dispensary like MWC in Dc. The staff is so well verswd and knowledgeable about the products. And the stay fully stocked! What maor could you ask for??

  45. david.e

    As someone with lifelong sleep problems and no knowledge about cannabis products, I needed a dispensary that could help me understand the best product for my situation. Thanks to MWC’s help, I’m sleeping a full eight hours every night without having to resort to sleeping pills or worse. I can’t stress enough how great the staff is at this location. There’s always a good selection: I have never left without finding something ideal to my own needs, and there is usually some kind of special offer that makes my medicine more affordable. If you live in the Capitol Hill area, or just want to sign up with a dispensary that provides truly excellent service, this is one to pay attention to.

  46. Kaiserbooker

    Don’t know yet

  47. strychninecandy

    Metropolitan Wellness offers an excellent experience. The knowledgeable and friendly staff have made each visit a pleasure. They have recently resumed carrying products from Holistic Remedies as well as District Growers, widening their already excellent options. Thank you all very much!

  48. kstreet

    Great quality, knowledgeable staff.

  49. Saux

    They’re awesome

  50. PositiveVibeMe

    high quality service from kind/knowledgeable people in a professional atmosphere dYtm,

  51. AmyBard

    It is very comfortable and welcoming. They answered all of my questions with patients and a smile. I didn’t get my card this summer because there was a product shortage. There is no more shortages!! When I went in last week, there were at least 15 different strains, hash, tinctures and lots of paraphernalia. I truly enjoy shopping there and, I will recommend my friends because they give you credit for recommendation!

  52. crensha13

    I’m impressed with the level of customer service and products available dY~Z

  53. savoy5

  57. Angelhawk202

    This Dispensary is the best in the city, I highly recommend this place to any and everyone who would love to go. They have the best strains of marijuana and the best products in the city. They have the best customer service, the employees are very nice and very helpful. I will definitely be returning to this place and hope to see the rest of y’all there as well.

  58. Yelladiva

    The team here rocks! They know the products and always have the answers. Best customer service experience in DC!

  59. Stickyjess

    Folks here are super patient when answering questions and I always appreciate their advice as I’m shopping around. Staff is kind and informed. Products are also A1 here. I frequently buy their shake because the quality is great and price is just within my range.

  60. namaslay

    I came here to splurge a little bit before the new year. I used to purchase their disposable cartridges but stopped because the battery stopped working a couple days after I got my pen and I had to dispose good weed. Their menu is also misleading. The disposable cartridges are 0.3g and not 1/2g as advertised. I also purchased 2 pre-rolls and to my disappointing surprise, one of my cones was filled half way and wasn’t even twisted properly. Could’ve easily came loose and spilled in the bag. I was also charged an extra $17 for an e-cigarette/battery for my cartridge. This place is pretty pricey and do not offer good deals. It’s cool though. I only come out of convenience. The quality is always good and the staff is friendly for the most part but they will short you and you won’t realize it until you’re already gone.

  61. kmoodyndc

    Always a please visiting this location. The staff is friendly, patient, knowledgeable and professional. Also, their website is one of the better sites offered by dispensaries in the district.

  62. bodhiqween

    I love this location. I can run all my errands around here! Adulting!

  63. ericpierotti

    Very convenient system. A little confusion about what I ordered but it was no problem.

    Amy and Yaya we’re very nice and helpful.

    This shop has improved significantly since I was there last. Selection is much wider than before.

  64. Cotter45

    While the selection exceeds all expectations, the staff is what makes this dispensary the best in the area! They all are super friendly, and can match you with a perfect strand to fit your current needs. Would recommend to anyone who anyone who asks!

  65. Dietrich1

    MWC has great knowledgeable staff. With the pre-order there is almost zero wait time. Convenient located to metro. They keep good bud and concentrates in stock consistently.

  66. Smoochiereddz

    Oh I love the knowledge of the staff and the warm personality they know the product that you need and they share the information with you and how things work for pain,what help you sleep good you can’t beat that thank youdY’-a~

  67. herbertjones

    Metropolitan Wellness is DC’s premiere Medical Marijuana dispensary. They typically carry a broad range of strains ranging from Indica, Sativa and Hybrids to high CBD strains.

    If you’re looking for a dispensary close to Metro and easily accessible from downtown DC, Metropolitan Wellness can’t be beat.

    The Staff at MWCDC are friendly, informative and professional – especially when it comes to making product recommendations.

    If you are new to the Medical Marijuana Dispensary experience MWDC is your best choice.

  68. Australia37

    The staff is great!!!

  69. Skulpa

    Great variety of product and friendly staff. I love this place.

  70. V_s

    They really made feel at home here! Big ups Mwc!!

  71. Doc21pgh

    Been getting my product from you guys for sometimes. This time my Green Crack was super super dry. You’ve been out for sometime so I was happy to see it was back but was surprised once I got home. You should have a discount rates for older, dry products. I did not enjoy my Green Crack.

  72. SunnyFloridaAvenue

    Love MWC. I recently renewed my card and I didn’t even consider switching dispensaries. MWC’s staff, location, stock, and variety and unbeatable. Best business on Barrack’s Row!

  73. Lydiagilligan

    BEST service, budtenders, wide selection. Order online, walk in, pick up order. So convenient. Thank you all! You guys are great!

  74. pjackson120

    Always fast reliable service.

  75. Avanticat

    I love the atmosphere and location. The staff is knowledgeable and extremely helpful. They pay close attention to my likes and needs and have given me great advice that has worked for me.

  76. NYsmoker

    Love the staff at MWC! I’m looking forward to picking up another order today!

  77. jimjam421

    Went here in January 2015. They were out of flowers at that time so I got some tinctures. They were good:) The next day I went back and they had three kind of flowers but they were all $25/gram. They only sold by the gram, so an ounce would be $700! I don’t know if they are having supply issues or maybe just trying to capitalize on the upper class vibe of barracks row, but these prices make me want to switch dispensaries. Also, while the other 2 disp.’s in DC have full menus with donation prices on their Leafly and website, the MWC does not keep up. great and knowledgeable staff, bad prices.

  78. Tytesha25

    La Chocolate Strain they have is outta this world I need to come back for more

  79. Kingpothead25

    I’m a new patient at MWC and i just had my first visit a few weeks ago. I was kinda scared at first but it turned out to be pretty amazing experience. I was greated by a wonderful receptionist that clamed me down. Then when i was called in the back. I received a well and formative orientation about the dispensary and what they offer. The guy went over flowers, oil, edibles, and other smoke equipment that they offer. He thoroughly explained the different ways cannabis can help me. He also explain what strains will be good for me and which ones that wont work for me. Everybody at the dispensary was very friendly. And it helps that is so conveniently close to the metro and to my house. I recommend this place to anybody that has a medicinal card and what to receive a homie/ friendly experience

  80. Paula333

    Friendly and knowledgeable staff

  81. klmorgan36

    The people are so friendly patient and knowledgeable. I love just being in the atmosphere and learning about the different products.

  82. ant007

    Great Service

  83. Joetim762

    ignore the outward appearance, act like you are going to the cell phone repair shop. The fragrant aroma will guide you up the stairs smile at the electronic door bell. Click, entrance granted. Be patient, show your D.C. Medical marijuana card. Sit down. The portal has opened they call your name. It is not a candy store but they sell edibles. The pot is top shelf no question. And don’t tell them it all smells the same.

  84. Bigtoo

    Great staff and great products

  85. Spidercaz3

    Great service from the staff and they are very well informed. I was new this month and they were able to help me with specific strains to help my pain and and made great recommendations. Highly recommend

  86. HarmonyMisc

    The staff is great and the atmosphere is nice. My only issue is that their menu is consistently incorrect. Never rely on what Leafly is telling you because half the time it is wrong.

  87. Losgranda

    Staff are always a great help and very informative…I highly recommend coming here.

  88. NateBoogie

    #1 period. Nothing else to say.

  89. Babylove

    I think this place is awesome with a good selection of Sativa and also alot of accessories. They have Indica and hybrid flowers also along with butter, oil, and wax and juice. I cant forget my knowledgeable #1 staff members.

  90. merrbury247

    I’ve been coming to MWC since the summer and have never been disappointed. Their flower is top quality and their cartridges are really solid. I have also purchased tinctures there, which are also great. Just keep in mind that MWC prices are more expensive compared to other dispensaries around town. The dispensary is small, so I’ve had to wait a decent amount of time in the waiting area a few times. Overall, it is a great place and everyone is super nice and knowledgable.

  91. TrinidadDC

    In DC, as I understand it, you can only visit the dispensary listed on your card. These were very helpful in getting me a doctor and a card. I can’t really compare much outside of price to others in the district. The staff is always helpful and knowledgeable about strains. Prices are high, there are never any strains under $20 per gram. They have trim if you want to save money, it’s terrible to smoke, but tolerable in a vaporizer and great to cook with. I may eventually jump through the hoops to change dispensaries to save money, but I’m happy with them for now.

  92. grjack12

    MWDC is the first dispensary I’ve going to for dY~f years now. The service is always improving. You’re well taken care of. dYtmdY3/4dY~S

  93. Grayboy

    The staff at MWC is very engaging and knowledgeable about their merchandise. I’ve always found their suggestions to be on point! There is always enough staff to make wait time very short. It’s a fantastic place!

  94. Sulfuricacid

    As a first timer, I was intimidated. I was unsure of how the process went. My illness has many downs including speech and comprehension problems, but this staff made me feel comfortable before I made any purchase. I was at ease just enough to spit out my symptoms and was greatful to get results by trying out different flowers…it took me a while but I am learning slowly what helps me and what doesnt. The staff is more than okay with helping me figure out my way through the strains and I am more than okay with being the guinea pig this time around because the treatments can only help me get better not worse..unlike the pills I was given that made me sick..

  95. djtech04

    This place is different….I just changed dispenseries and this place isn’t that bad. I didn’t know what to expect when I first came here but I’m glad i made the switch. The waiting room is neat. The selection is great. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The presentations is nice. Plus there’s a Snoopy. I am a happy customer.

  96. wyantman3000

    The staff there is quite helpful and rather friendly. Has a decent variety for how long they have been up and running and the legal restraints of dc. No wax, but they do have tinctures, keef, hash, and accesories.

  97. hottrodstreets

    beautiful place

  98. meangene2311

    I think they don’t care about new patients. Apparently new patients have to come before the last 15 mins. So if you coming from quite far like did, get in the city traffic like it always is, drive around and find parking. MAKE SURE YOU IN THERE BEFORE THE LAST 15 MINS IF YOU A NEW PATIENT. Now pay me for doing y’all job Metropolitan Wellness Center.

  99. DCFirefly

    This is my second year.
    I was having trouble getting my card , on time , and EVERYONE whom I encountered at MWC did everything that they could to help me.
    I’m glad that they are here.

  100. dg1202

    Absolutely try the new edibles. They’re delicious and take you right where you need to go. A nice body high that’ll take your pain away. Worth the price of admission. You will love them!

  101. FrankLamphard

    I liked everything about the location. Selection, service…its all good. However, kinda pricey and no volume based discounting. However, i will be returning for the hard to find nuggets, wax…etc.

  102. owlymay

    This place has completely changed my life. A year ago, I was having so much trouble coping with pain from chronic illness. While cannabis itself would have likely helped anyone, the staff here really helped me learn how to get to know my body and what strains I enjoy for relaxation vs. strains I can work on. They are knowledgable, friendly, and incredibly loyal to their customers. If you need medical cannabis in DC, I cannot recommend them enough!
