Dispensary Review Reveal: Rise, Bloomfield NJ - Where's the Compassion? I don't usually post like this, but I believe transparency helps others make informed decisions--especially when it comes to their health, wellness, and money. Rise Bloomfield was one of the first medical dispensaries I visited in Northern NJ. Naturally, I expected that early presence in the community to come with warmth, product knowledge, and at the very least--basic customer care. Sadly, my recent experience reminded me just how transactional and cold some dispensaries can feel. After spending a considerable amount of money on infused pre-rolls (which, by the way, didn't burn properly--not one of them), I returned to Rise with proof, hoping for a reasonable resolution. I wasn't asking for the world--just a simple store credit or exchange. Instead, I was met with a wall of resistance: three staff members jumping in to shut me down, all repeating the same line--"We don't do that. No dispensary does." It wasn't what they said as much as how they said it. No empathy. No curiosity about the issue. No attempt to make it right. It felt like I was being scolded for speaking up. Rise, I'm not here to bash. I'm here to be honest: * The environment is cold * The staff feels scripted and disengaged * There's little to no product education * And the reward system and pricing don't offer much value Cannabis is supposed to be healing. Compassionate. Rooted in care. If we can't even have a human conversation when something goes wrong, what exactly are we rising to? read more

Rise dispensaries are always a good choice for medical marijuana in New Jersey. I usually visit the Paterson store as they always have the best selection. read more

All of the bud at these corporate places tastes like grow chemicals. That horrible cardboard taste. Before legalization, weed never tasted like that, probably because it was grown in soil. Sometimes they will offer products that taste cleaner, like Savvy and Binske - and then they stop carrying them. Employees, who always claim to be so helpful at these places, are never able to steer me clear of these issues, so it's trial and error. I'd rather a dispensary carry three kinds of quality flower than have to choose from a large array of bad tasting bud. read more

Bait and switch. I searched the website and went straight to the store. The 1/2 ounce of flower went up $20 and the edibles were not availble in the 5 minutes it took to drive there. This place is a scam and they draw you in with fake prices and figure you'll just buy because you already made the trip. Never again. DO NOT BELEIVE THE PRICES THEY SHOW ONLINE. Reminds me of the day pot was illegal and you got into a standoff with a dealer on the street. read more

Had A wonderful experience with Jonathan C. He was very knowledgable and patient with me.

Thank you gareth for the excellent service and outstanding knowledge on rise products

Been coming here since they opened and this place is great. They have a good selection, always seem to have sales going on and the employees are helpful and nice. 10/10 read more

The store is bright and spacious. They have their own parking lot, which is helpful. They are well stocked with a large variety of products. The workers are very friendly and helpful. It tends to be crowded, but the workers keep the line moving. I have no complaints about Rise. read more

Was great when it first opened, but now the staff is mean and they try to tell you that THCA is the same thing as THC. Go somewhere else

Old weed sold for premium prices. If you want dried out nugs that turn into powder this is your spot. company policy: you cant look at what your buying. You can look at it after buying (Outside). No returns Or exchanges lolol. Go somewhere else. read more

These People stole my money and their manager laughed in my face. On February 7 2026 I went to purchase a traveler. The so called bud tenders never gave me my product. I had to call the police to resolve the issues read more

The products are a bit pricey. However, I guess they are on par with other surrounding dispensaries in the area. The service was great - very attentive employees as soon as you walk in the door. I like that wherever you turn there's someone knowledgeable there to help and/or answer any questions you may have. I was glad to catch a sale on some items - I do not know how often that takes place, but they should keep it up! It definitely sways me there opposed to other competitive places (many options), so yeah, keep those sales going, Rise! Also, there's supposedly a points system, let's ramp that up, too! I'd go again, not without still doing my due diligence in price comparison, though. Overall, it was a good first experience at this location. read more

As far as cannabis dispensaries goes this is one of the better ones in north Jersey. There's plenty of parking and the store is actually quite spacious and well setup. They have screens to order in store if you choose so or of course you can place an order online which is more convenient imo. Overall I find the actual products and the prices to be the main issues. There are a few brands that dominate the current market and to be honest they have been cutting corners with products since the launch of Jersey dispensaries. The sales are really underwhelming sometimes and they'll have products that really don't do well or are several months old on sale. My main gripe right this moment has been the concentrate selection; The prices are ridiculous ($110/G) for some rosin...is really mind blowing but it's on par with other dispensaries in NJ. I personally only ever stop by when there's a good sale, which is rare but I will say the overall quality of products is quite consistent. I'm just waiting for the day NJ turns the cannabis industry around and actually makes it worth while to shop at dispensaries because they way I see it the prices are negligently selected and the products are no where near worth the price point for the quality and process of harvesting and extracting cannabis. We've yet to see any hash products and there's very few rosin (solventless) products on shelves currently which I hope to see change in the future. read more

To any of you reading this who may be engaged in the illegal act of selling cannabis, fear not. The dispensary experience combined with astronomical prices means you should be able to sustain a living despite your legal competition. Never was this more apparent than in my visit to shit show dispensary RISE. Upon arrival you're greeted by a parking lot attendant who tells you that you can't park but you can drive around the block. Once you park you wait on line to get in. So you're at about the 40 minute mark to get in and wait on another long ass line. Sorry but not worth the 2+ hours of my life to buy way way way over priced weed. Left and called my friend. Problem solved. read more

Often sells gummies that's a week before expiration. Their shine brand vape carts often clog and become unusable when new and there's no response from support for any exchange or replacements. read more

Stopped by yesterday with my mom since I wanted to be able to have a consultation for her. The parking situation was wonky. Normally you can park in the lot with ease but when I went it was blocked off. I finally found street parking after circling for a while. The line moved very quickly, really only waited for a minute or two outside. Upon entrance they scan your ID and they give you a small little welcome tutorial if it's your first time. I had to ask for a small consultation and while our guide was super nice and friendly, he didn't seem incredibly knowledgeable. I asked for something specific and they didn't have much stock or anything. I understand they just opened up and they sell out quick but quantity they had was underwhelming. I've been to dispensaries in multiple states and never experienced this. My mom left with some lozenges that aren't bad, they're slightly working for what she needs them for. I probably won't come back to this location, might give the one in Paramus a try. Definitely going to shop around a bit next time. read more

Always has good sales and people always friendly, good atmosphere all around good place good people

Taina was exceptional today! Hope I have her again! So helpful and bubbly! So informative as well

Having become acclimated to the drive-through mentality of Harmony Dispensary in Secaucus, I had no idea how neglected I was as a patient until I went to RISE in Bloomfield. After months of "medication," the edge that I was still on, and the well-hidden emotional exhaustion that I continued to feel, were immediately "act-knowledged," and diagnosed with a very knowledgeable expertise by the Staff at RISE Dispensary in Bloomfield. Thank you, Michael. My experience with both the Staff, and Management, will always be memorable for a number of reasons. I felt recognized, and applauded, as a very patient patient. Both times, I left feeling cared for, educated, and reassured. read more

I recently had a wonderful experience at the Bloomfield RISE location. Shout out to Janette - I was beyond impressed with her professionalism and customer service skills; she was friendly, patient with my billion questions and highly knowledgeable. She listened to my concerns and my needs and I left with something useful - unlike past purchases where I have left unsatisfied. :( Janette went above and beyond to help me find the perfect product and I will certainly return for future purchases. Thank you!! :) read more

Amazing store. Staff is amazing, especially the woman whose name starts with "J" which I forget. Very helpful, knowledgeable, and kind staff. Everything I could ever ask for in a dispensary, I'd give 6 stars if I could. read more

My partner and I have gone to RISE twice. The place itself is gorgeous it looks like a modern urgent care it's beautiful clean and aesthetic. They have parking which is wonderful and the inside is super modern with electronics you can use to place orders and a ton of helpful workers/attendants guiding you through your entire experience. On both our visits we purchased pre-rolls and both where lovely smooth and rolled very well. They only accept cash, the atm they have onsite has a very expensive fee of 8$ so take out cash at a atm before hand. read more

I had an amazing experience thanks to Jordyn. She assisted me through my whole order and is a big supporter of veterans! Would recommend RISE & Jordyn to all my friends. read more

This was my 3rd dispensary that I have visited in my life. It was a completed different layout than I have experienced in Colorado and Michigan -- I believe that is due to state legislature. They have ordering screens that you order from (they do have plenty of screens to order from so there was no line). I would have preferred to be able to see the product that I was purchasing before ordering it, but that was not an option. In any case - our Bud-tenders Tiffany and Xavier were awesome. Very knowledgable about their product and completely freindly and welcoming. We also got a cute bag that if you bring back, they give you some money off your total #GoGreen! read more

Great space, fast and everyone is friendly. Need your id to get in. I'm in and out! Been here five times

I've been going to Rise literally since day 1 of legal recreational sales. They're convenient as they're in my town not far from my home. Generally it's been a good experience. However, today I ordered a five pack of Butterstuff Pre-rolls from Ozone. It came in a lovely package with separate tubes for each. However, while there were supposed to be five pre-rolls, there were only four. When I called the dispensary to let them know and see what they could do for me, they said there was literally nothing they could or would do for me. The pleasant man told me that they'd heard of boxes being completely empty. While I will likely continue to go, I will now open every box I get from them in the store in order to verify the count. I would recommend anybody doing business with Rise Bloomfield to do the same. read more

Tommy terpes was amazing so helpful and knew so much!!! Very knowledgeable on different strains!

2nd time we've been here and not disappointed. Personally I don't like using the screens to order, I prefer speaking to a person who knows what they are talking about. At this visit a woman named Janette actually came out from behind her counter and helped us out getting our order straight at the screens. She was a big help, and to her Mgr who didn't like the idea of their employee coming out and actually helping a potential customer, remember what you're doing, running a retail store. Believe it or not a "service", what Janette did was what all of your employees should do, take care of your customers. Due to her help we spent about $100 more than we planned to, think about that mgmt. read more

Worst place ever. Workers here have less knowledge about Marijuana, business, sales and customer servicr than Patrick from SpongeBob. Overpriced. read more

Been going to Rise since NJ legalized medicinal cannabis. Always a great experience. Rise continually runs the best deals, best quality, and most convenient selections. And now with delivery, it's 100% better. Denzel brought me my order and was one of the nicest dudes. It's really cool to see employees who seem to enjoy themselves. Speaks a lot to his character too. Give my man a promotion. Thanks again. read more

RISE Bloomfield is wonderful. Staff is so knowledgeable, and very welcoming. Had a great experience there this past Sunday. Mac helped us and she was amazing. So friendly, helpful, and answered every question we had. She was very knowledgeable and gave suggestions to us, which was great. She had a great personality and made our shopping experience so pleasant!! Definitely will be back to see Mac soon. RISE is such a great establishment to walk in to. So pleasing to the eye, so customer friendly with the kiosks, and always someone to help you. Love that it is so neat and so super clean too. Such a great addition to our area. read more

Love the Sales that go on constantly, with Great Products and Staff. My place to Shop.

Decent selection; It seems to be getting better compared to when they first opened. My only suggestion is that you guys need to run better deals on your Monthly Specials and include Flower in it more than Vapes. read more
