I’ve been to a variety of dispensaries, from Rise in Paterson and Rochelle Park to Doobiez in West Milford. As a Monmouth county resident, there aren’t much options to meet the demand for recreational weed. With the lack of competition, the prices remain high simply because they can. Their app is poorly optimized compared other brands—you can’t even use your loyalty points for deliveries, ONLY in store. Not to mention, they advertise resident discounts, educator discounts, OG, etc…which are only applied to in store orders.
My biggest gripe is that there is a $75 minimum, so even if you find something within your budget, it’s unable to be delivered because of the way everything is priced. You need at least $120 for a free delivery whereas most dispensaries offer $75 free delivery (which is the order minimum for Premo with a $5 fee on top of sales tax). Plus, the one time I did order delivery, there was no tracking. I was given a call and told one time, and it ended up coming later than my scheduled delivery.
There’s no way to be smart with your money at Premo in Keyport, any benefits are only offered to in-store customers and from a marketing perspective, is doing the brand harm. The only time I will be purchasing is if I’m completely dry because I find shopping at Premo in Keyport lackluster.
If you have a car and are able to make it to a dispensary in person, sure Premo can work. I’m 100% positive there’s a dispensary that has better deals/prices and has better online or app optimization in the Monmouth county area. Personally, I’m out of luck since I’ll rely on deliveries and I’m not within the radius of other dispensaries.
You can’t stack your loyalty points regardless if you’re in store (forget about delivery) on discounted items. Every dispensary I’ve been to honors the loyalty points—even if an item is marked down. Most the time reduced prices mean a product is closer to its expiration date. I’ve never been more disappointed with...
Read moreThis dispensary is beautiful, and the staff is wonderful. I WANT to support them. I WANT to delete this review. Living within walking distance of a shop as a longtime stoner has always been a dream—but a year later, I still drive 30-60 minutes for better prices.
Most dispensaries offer 20-30% storewide sales multiple times a month, while this shop relies on sporadic pop-up deals for select brands. Their first-time and local discounts are also 10% lower than most competitors, and I’ve had the local discount fail to apply multiple times.
Selection is another issue—it's consistently more limited than other dispos, and there are NO reasonable bulk options. Meanwhile, I have five other dispensaries that ALWAYS offer 28g for $150-170 with solid quality.
Theor prices might have worked early after legalization, but with the market now saturated and the economy tightening, refusing to adapt will only push them further out of customers' minds. Mine included
If I were rating based purely on the staff and store, this would be an easy 5 stars. But pricing and selection matter, and they’re why I haven’t switched. Please—give me a reason to. I check your prices regularly, hoping for a change 🙏...
Read moreWow, where do I start? As a local to Keyport, Premo is a go-to for me. The environment and the store are top-notch and well above other competitors. There is always a constant rotation and selection of fresh and new products, and some type of deal that always reigns supreme when compared with other dispensaries. One of the most important things to me when it comes to shopping is the customer experience and customer appreciation. Let me tell you, they sure have it here! I encountered a minor issue, which anyone would be upset and discouraged by. After reaching out and speaking with Thenga, one of the managers at the store, she went above and beyond to not only validate my concern but also take it a step further and rectify the issue. Things like this solidify a business, and I wish more stores had this type of community outlook with their customers. Bianca was my budtender; she was kind, courteous, and very polite. Premo is a top-notch dispensary, and I will continue doing business with them as long as they are in the state. I cannot recommend...
