    A big ole joint! How fun!
    David N.

    These guys have problems that are concerning. Here's a little about my experience. Bear in mind that these are first world problems. But gosh did my experience get me fired up. 1) Greeted by a 20 something who was on the phone in a full blown conversation. No eye contact but no biggie. Anyway, she motioned for me to show my ID and I just wasn't impressed from the start. Still, you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Idk maybe I caught her in a moment or on a bad day. It happens. That said, I would encourage Consume to creatively and strategically re-think their lobby. Because it's boring, feels like an afterthought and I frankly don't blame her for being utterly bored. 2) THIS is HUGE and my biggest reason for the review: Legit, slowest kiosks I've ever experienced in my life... and I tried three different kiosks there!!! I kid you not: press a button, wait 15 SECONDS and the command is received after colliding with the subsequent button pushes you do while asking is this thing working?! . It made for a very frustrating experience. Here's the thing, I went to McDonalds earlier that day and that kiosk was night and day better by comparison. And granted I know Consume isn't McDonalds but my point is that the tech exists. Personally if I were the owner, I would be up the craw of my POS provider or Comcast because this truly shapes the consumer experience and is slowly turning customers off one at a time. So Pro Tip: order online in advance. Consume MUST look at this. 3) Did I mention the kiosk was SO slow ^ Anyway, the girl told me I could maybe use an iPad when I complained about the speed of the kiosks which was a great solution! But then she added that they have never allowed the iPads into the "lounge" for browsing. So like, she offered and then took it back. I just... anyway, I used my iphone. Not so great. 4) I went to pick up my stuff. I'm supposed to receive a discount. The info I provided has been "good enough" in four other dispensaries. But not here! Despite overwhelming evidence, even the manager wouldn't grant me a discount unless I had this one ID badge. Didn't ask me about what I did... or for other forms of proof... just a no. And that really sucked. I think the problem I'm seeing in other negative comments is management not knowing where they can be flexible. What they were asking for is not required by the law to approve a discount. It's a standard operating procedure that needs to be altered. I would strongly encourage a dialogue with regulators and consistent training in how to handle gray areas that customers approach them with. The fact that I was denied was as silly as it was unnecessary and annoying. I've earned the discount- trust me. I had multiple ways to prove I was in that "discount class" but not that ID badge so it was a no... and I think that management could've shown more flexibility and grace. Morale seems low here and that should be looked at as well. I'd love to see the Budtenders have high chairs they can sit on if they choose. But instead they seem tired and weighed down by the reality that budtending can be hard. I'd have liked just a little more fun or personality. And it sucks because I live 5 minutes away! Anyway, this resulted in me just not feeling welcome AT ALL, there was no room for browsing, no smiles, just slam bam thank you ma'am give me money and gtfo... in attitude and concept; The only thing stopping that phrase from being completely true is the fact that it was SO slow. Honestly, it's so slow bro if you use the kiosk that it's honestly faster for me to go to Cannabist in Jefferson Park 12 minutes away than go to Consume that's 5 minutes away. Plus, I'll actually feel welcome at Cannabist. Bottom line: If you are experiencing cannabis here for the first time, DO NOT think this is the general experience. With new dispensaries coming online, I would strongly advise Consume takes a look at employee morale, re-think their lobby, continue training their managers to include flexibility and grace and for God's sake... for Consume's sake REPLACE THOSE KIOSKS.

    Great just great. Never a bad experience when visiting this dispensary in the past. They run out of the better choices FAST, so if you can't find it here, your next best bet is MOCA. If you are thinking about getting a medical card, check these guys out!

    Great dispensary. HORRIBLE parking. Employee cars overtake the entire parking lot. not sure why customers have to park on the street.

The selection is extensive and you can truly see that Jay cares for his client base and their needs. Additionally, the store is so clean and always smells so good. This is more than a smoke shop, it's a comfort place, it's a sanctuary for good vibes. The combination of fresh incense in the air and the in and out quality of service is impeccable. HIGHLY RECCOMEND!

    My husband and I have been shopping at Whole Leaf for at least 8 years. They have the best…read moreselection in the entire city. We moved out of portage park a few years ago and still travel out of our way to come here. All our glass pieces are from here. Their customer service is always top notch, fair prices, and they always do little things to make you feel appreciated as a customer. Something as little as giving you a free lighter with your purchase is awesome and so appreciated. When one of our new pieces cracked from heat (not the shops fault at all), they gave us a discount on a new piece which is so appreciated. They also give good suggestions on products after getting to know you better. We purchased glass cleaner there from their recommendation and it works amazingly. Last time they suggested a grinder for us (not even looking for one) and it's hands down the best grinder we've ever owned. Whole leaf will always get our business!! If you're looking for an awesome glass/smoke shop definitely go here.
