i love coming here, the staff is fantastic. they always seem to be in such a good mood and incredibly patient. today it was snowing, and JC (i hope i spelled his name correctly) was out there, just pouring salt all over the parking lot very calm, in just a sweater, bad ass. and he was so sweet, too. thank you for pouring salt, it's a small thing but very appreciated. this is what i mean but great staff :) read more

This is my first time coming here and it was overwhelming. They have a few parking spots in front but if you turn right on Powell Ave and go a little past the store there are more spots in a lot. As soon as you come in there's an ATM machine which was used by 2 people while I waited online in the lobby. There is a window in the corner where you show the rep your ID. You have to wait in the lobby until you're called in. Once in they asked for my ID again. I requested a 1 gram cartridge which was originally $40 but apparently there was sale today dropping it down to $31. The rep said the payment card system was down even though the man at the first counter was able to scan my ID. Conveniently there was another ATM machine right next to the register. Overall there were plenty of happy helpful dealers and many options which was the overwhelming part. read more

We were looking for a place that sells seeds, after only three out of 12 seeds we ordered online from a different seller sprouted. Then two died, and my cat ate the last surviving seedling (in one chomp. He loves green veg). A friend recommended that we try Star Buds, as we usually go to Health for Life on North Point Road because it has a drive-thru, but they do not yet sell seeds. Parking is decent, but there are a lot of people wandering around, not really paying attention, coming and going from their cars and such. My boyfriend was able to find many things to buy, but was annoyed to find that the ATM has a $100 limit, so he had to pay the ATM fee twice to get enough money to pay for his selections. We were able to get some seeds, which were planted yesterday. Fingers crossed that we get a couple of strong-willed ladies this time around. He seems pretty pleased with his purchases, except for the blunt he accidentally bought thinking it was an infused joint. He did get a joint, too, which came with a glass mouthpiece, which are always appreciated. The packaging is super fun. I'm totally saving the pretty plastic tubes the blunt and joint came in. They'll be great for storing art supplies. Would recommend read more

Ok so now I have visited this place more than once. The first time it was a bit overwhelming.... Checking in, then going to another line then medical goes before you, I have no issues with that it does extend your time there. This time around I was a lil bit more at ease because of my prior experience so I know what to expect. This time around it was a way more cooler experience. I was a lot more knowledgeable of the products that are sold, I did alot of my research on the site before the night prior. I called myself going early around 10am, they opened at 9am... there was still a line, next time I'm gonna stick to my Friday, thats when they have flameless Friday 10% off deals. My experience this time was amazing, thank you to my bud tender Palmer (girl) she was amazing, and very knowledgeable about products as well. read more

First time to this particular dispensary in Baltimore...the check in process was easy (though it was crowded,I went on a Friday afternoon and the lobby area is rather small),just had to have my ID ready to go. Once I stepped inside it was hustling and bustling with budtenders and guests alike...the walls were lined with flower,edibles,vapes and accessories. If you're a novice you may seem overwhelmed,fret not the budtenders are knowledgeable and friendly. After mulling through the vast selection of flower and edibles my wife(traditionally an occasional edible user)and I made our selection(pictured in the review,not pictured is the edible.)a taffy for my wife and I got the Snoop Dogg OG and Golden Pineapple flower(s) both very smooth and delightful highs. Definitely will be back,I downloaded their app and signed up for their reward program. #PuffTuff read more

You be the judge on how much is missing like! Usually, almost every time I purchase a 1 gram cart......there's no bubble, and or it's filled up completely! This is the 2nd time in the past 2 weeks I purchased a 1 gram cart by O.Pen, and it was missing oil in the cartridge! Megan you're the best for taking care of me last time this happened! Seems like it's with the O.Pen brand......where oil was missing like! I just wanted to put this out there, so you guys at starbuds know, and for the patients as well coming in to purchase goods at your establishment! Below in the pictures you'll see a 1 gram Ice cream vape cart by O.Pen read more

HARASSMENT !! if you don't want to be harassed going to this location on belair rd. then don't you dare leave a honest review of your experience. they WILL APPROACH YOU! and demand a response lol . my review wasn't even that bad lol obviously I went back so I was hoping my review would improve things which they did because my experience today was much better than the last but being verbally attacked by this short white lady on my way out because I left a review of my previous experience is just HORRIBLE customer service. I wonder what she will say to me the next time I go ? read more

The price was great and the products worked as advertised. I went in and explained what my needs were and I was recommended several options.

At Starbuds check-in on Friday. Sept.22, 2023 (Baltimore: Belair Rd) I was told my medical certification had to be changed to recreational because I wasn't showing up as valid in their system I just renewed in May with my doctor I don't know what kind of games y'all are playing but I didn't purchase and I won't be back. read more

Ask her about extra rewards....she has no problem walking over to grab a card or maybe a vape holder...THANK YOU VANNY! read more

My associate was extremely helpful, direct and listened to my question and gave informative responses. Love this place

Great deals but it's only because they sell defective products. Been a loyal customer there for about a year and got sold about a dozen defective products. Usually they would exchange it. The most recent time (when the cart was black and tasted burnt) they told me they wouldn't exchange it. What a waste of $50. Y'all just lost a customer. read more

UPDATE: Star Buds got Yelp to delete my comment. How cute! Clean up your service and you won't get horror story reviews. Was an apology too much??? "We typically remove reviews that describe individuals or situations with objectionable terms that go beyond simply reviewing a customer experience with a business. We ask that reviewers avoid commentary that reinforces negative cultural stereotypes, makes light of physical or sexual violence, or otherwise includes unnecessarily graphic or offensive descriptions." Located in the heart of the hood stands Star Buds...If you are hesitant to go you should be! There are so many other better places to spend your hard earned money other than this mediocre establishment. My first visit September 14 (evening): First day getting my MMCC card so I rushed over to the first dispensary I could find which was Starbuds..the line was out the door but that didn't stop security and two of the budtenders from getting high in front of the black employee door upfront..Poor etiquette! On my second visit (2 weeks ago) it was early morning, the dispensary had just opened and the parking lot was EMPTY so I just pulled head in to the parking lot at the front door. Their front parking lot does not have lines on it so it's basically first fit, first served..I was inside for about 5 mins because I did an online order and after getting my medicine I went back to my car where I was confronted by a short, bald, black dude with gold glasses asking me if that was my car and I told him yes as I went to get in my car. He then proceeds to tell me that I can't park there and that I'm blocking two other parking spots (On a curb, no access) and that I can't do that. I told him "I'm trying to move now but I can't move and talk to you" as I go to sit in my car and close the door the security guard grabbed my door and continued to tell me how I couldn't park there next time. I told him "If you were at your post then you would be able to dictate who parks where" and that he needed to remove his hands from my vehicle. He stood there staring at me through my tinted windows so rolled my window down and told him to move or I would call the police..of course he then moved and stared at me as I drove away. Yesterday on 11/22/2020 I called to get some details on two Indica strains because Star Buds halfway puts stuff in the system so you can never see the ingredients to compare Myrcene or any other important information pertaining to your purchase. I got (I believe this is his name, given to me by Brandon) Bryan on the phone..I began to explain my dilemma and he cuts me off and blurts out "Do you know how much longer this is going to take, it's getting pretty busy in here and I can't just stand around on the phone helping you out"...WOW!!!! I immediately hung up the phone but then I remembered I didn't catch his name because they don't introduce themselves when they pick up the phone. Upon calling back I spoke to one gentleman and asked for a supervisor and I swear he put the phone on hold and came back pretending to be a manager named Brandon. I explained all these situations to Mr. Nonchalant Brandon and his response was "That sucks, sorry that happened"...after talking to a wall I told him "I see you're not interested in what I have to say and I believe my concerns are falling on deaf ears so I'll just end this conversation, review you online and keep my business at Blair Wellness". For this to be dispensary filled with potheads their attitudes surely aren't as uplifting as the products they sell. These employees are young, rude, inexperienced and not knowledgeable about the products they are selling. Also, BEWAREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! The 3.5 are not as they seem! Weigh every house pack you buy‼‼‼‼ Side note: Another reason I called yesterday is because how do you have a 20% sale on special flower but never indicate what you consider special flower???? If you make that clear maybe it'll cut down on some of the phone calls on that particular day. read more

Can't beat these guys around town, between the selection and variety, there isn't another place that you need to shop at. Best part is it's deli style, so you can see and smell what you get before you buy. Plus you go there enough, the rewards program goes up to a Ford Mustang. UPDATE: I WON THE MUSTANG!! I CANT BELIEVE IT!!! No, not really, but it's still a killer place to go read more

What an amazing dispensary! I've visited quite a few through my journey with medical marijuana, but Starbuds is the one I just keep coming back to. The daily deals is awesome so you always know what the deal of that day will he (easy to keep up, more than those places where everyday is something new). The employees there (especially my girl, Michelle) are so dang knowledgeable about everything! They also don't mind showing you and explaining/going over any product you curious about and it's like they all have experience with the products to be able to give you THEIR opinion. I love the look of the store especially, nice and simple layout where you're able to see everything they sell from one end to the next. It's so squeaky clean and organized so well. I love this place so much, after visiting about 10 or so places, this is the one that stands out the most! They have an insane collection of strains too unlike a few I've been to also, it's so cool to be able to try a ton of different kinds to find what works for You (and the employees are more than happy to help you find one that would be best for you based on "what you're looking for", what kind of relief and what not. So all in all, from 1-10, I rate this place a 9.8! Definitely worth visiting I promise you won't be let down! Oh and heads up- they are CASH ONLY! but there is an ATM available for customers inside (but maybe dont wanna pay fees so run to your atm before you come) Enjoy my fellow weed connoisseurs!! read more

I think I've found my new go-to spot! They have daily specials, decent prices, great quality, and the bud-tenders are awesome. After all the formalities of checking my paperwork, I literally felt like I was visiting an old friend. This was my third time visiting a dispensary and I'm glad I followed my instincts. I'm so sad I can't remember the name of the bud tender that assisted me, but he was AWESOME!!! He was able to steer me in the right direction and had great strain recommendations! We even talked about edible recipes. I definitely recommend visiting. read more

Terrible, terrible, terrible customer service. I'd give it no stars if that was an option. I bought a 265$ vaporizer from here, it doesn't work correctly. All it does is get hot and taste terrible, so I took it back. Well, they wouldn't take it back. No returns. This was also literally a week later. I would've gone sooner but I left to go out of town and couldn't do it until today. The owner Megan told me it's their policy to not take returns. I told her that was never explained to me and there was nothing on the receipt that said it was a final sale. -Let me pause right here. Had I been informed that I wouldn't be able to bring it back I wouldn't be here writing this. But I was not informed and it was nowhere in writing. Now, mind you Megan admitted to me that they need to change the receipts to say, "All Sales Final" or something similar, and make sure people know they can't return it. She then said, "Well I couldn't take flower back after it was purchased! Can you believe that? There is no comparison between a medicine that you ingest and a machine, that's just absurd. Of course you can't return the medicine you consume! Pitiful attempt at an excuse analogy. Now, remember I said that she admitted they needed to make that clear to customers? Yea, then in the next breath she told me there was actually a sign by the register! This is after she just admitted they need to make it clear that you can't make a return. At this point I couldn't even believe I was having this conversation and the absurdity of it all just made me angrier and angrier! So I was lied to, treated like I was crazy because I wanted to return a 265$ vaporizer that didn't work, and talked over as I tried to explain how crummy it is that she wouldn't let me return it. Wonderful. This is how they treat their patients! Absolutely Oh, I also told her that I was not just going to go away and let her get away with treating a patient this way. Then she tells me I'm threatening her. Yup, I was threatening her because I said I was going to complain to the BBB and the MMCC and write a review. That's not a threat! That is what you do when a business is completely in the wrong but refuse to do anything about it. What planet does this woman live on? Unbelievable. Needless to say I was thoroughly offended by her accusing me of threatening her. No Megan, this isn't a threat. This is what people do when a business treats them this way. She also admitted that if she was in my shoes she'd be pretty angry. But I'm threatening her. Ok then. In the spirit of full disclosure, by the end of this conversation I was so angry that I was having a very hard time controlling my temper. I was furious when I was told over and over again how sorry she was, how she would make sure people knew about the policy in the future and -most importantly- how she was sorry but she couldn't help me. She also continually talked over me when I was speaking. She did this five or six times until I started talking over her. Then she told me how she'd never been treated this way and I'm just so mean and terrible. Well sorry Megan, when you have no idea how to take care of your customers that's what happens. I'm human and I'm angry. And let's make no mistake about it, I was completely justified in being angry. She had my money and she had just washed her hands of it, that's what it boiled down to. I think I was perfectly justified in being furious! I was shaking I was so angry! This is just terrible customer service. You won't take back a 265$ vaporizer so now you've lost a new client that regularly spends four times that in a month. That's just bad business no matter how you shake it. You lose a little when you're dead wrong and then you make it all back and more because you now have a loyal customer. Obviously Megan isn't familiar with how that works. You also don't tell the customer that they're justified in being upset but you can't do anything about it. Again, had I known the sale was final, had Megan's imaginary signs that appeared out of nowhere actually been there and said the sale was final, and had the receipt also said it was final we wouldn't be here. You know what you do as a business owner of a medical facility when faced with an issue like this? You make it right this once and make sure it never happens again. I even told her I'd take 200$, that way we each would've given a little, but no, Megan can't do that, even though she owns the business and understands how crummy the situation is for all involved. Look at my review history and you'll see I never do this. This time is the exception. My next call will be to the Better Business Bureau and then to anywhere else that will listen. Sometimes you just gotta stand up for yourself no matter how unsavory it may feel. This all could've been avoided and yet here we are. So thanks for nothing. read more

This is my favorite dispensary the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable.Parking can be difficult at times but well worth it. They also have great deals on certain days depending on what you're looking for. read more

I've visited this location at least three times now. Each time I visit it's quick and convenient. And it smells amazing as soon as you walk up to their door! My budtender Alex was super helpful and informative. They let me know what deals were happening that day and of course I ended up buying more than what I originally planned lol. They also have products here that they don't have at all of the other local dispensaries yet, which was a definite plus! read more

Perfect local spot for all my healing needs. There is an awesome rewards program, and staff there always makes sure to honor any and all promotions and coupons they have going. Today, Vee was my budtender, but for real he is more of a healer. Making sure I knew about all the deals going on, and suggesting a new chewable troche today that has more CBDs (healing cannabanoids) per dose than what I usually get. Education on ingestibles is so important to me, since after my double lung transplant I cannot put anything into my lungs. Vee definitely went above and beyond today, in true Starbuds style. So grateful to have this gem in my neighborhood! read more

Starbuds is by far... The best dispensary I've visited and will probably be the only one I go to. The staff and manager are A1 and the product is always fresh and not (dried-out) like other places. Also the ability to mix and match is a no-brainer if you ask me. If you're a medicinal cannabis patient and you quality and reasonable pricing... Go to Starbuds and join the rewards program. Thank me later. read more

Excellent staff! They are very knowledgeable and willing to help you with any questions. Very clean shop! Best dispensary in Baltimore!!

This Place is Great no need to shop elsewhere. The shop is well stocked with a great variety of products and it's Deli style. They run specials everyday, the prices are very reasonable and they also have a point system with fun incentives. The Staff couldn't be more helpful. Chris was my budtender and his recommendations were spot on ! read more

The staff is SUPER knowledgeable and efficient. Every experience I have there keeps me coming back even though there are dispensaries much closer to my residence.
