The Social Leaf — Local services in South Toms River

I absolutely love this place!

Everyone I've met so far has been friendly and helpful. I always pick my order from the website before going, but I have asked a few product questions while there and the staff was knowledgeable.

The lines move fast but it's rare that there are more than a few people in the pre-order line anyway. It's not stagnant like the ATC I used to have to sit around at. Plus their foot traffic pattern keeps people moving through quick, so it doesn't feel cramped at all and the place has a nice vibe to it.

They always have a pretty wide variety of products on the menu. I'm a flower man myself, and they typically have a real nice selection of it.

Regular prices are typical Jersey, but they run specials often, occasionally really good ones. Also, if you sort flower by price from high to low, you can usually find some halfs or z's up top at a lower price than a bunch of eighths.

Although this dispensary is "adult use" and not an "ATC," even as a med card holder I find the convenience and the other things I mentioned more than make up for having to pay sales tax. Let them know if you do hold a card, though.

Another cool thing is they deliver now! So if you're home in your pajamas and don't have anywhere else to stop (or you're already zooted) go online to order what you want before it gets sold out, a while later they'll call you to verify your order before sending it. Once you're the next stop on the list, the driver calls with an ETA, which is real nice so you can have your ID ready and all.

I've done that many times now, and the process was just as easy as an in-store order. Just select delivery at checkout on the website ($4.99 as of this review), they bring a tablet with them to finalize the order with you just like you're standing in the store, so if you want them to check your loyalty points or anything like that they can.

I've mostly had Miami Mike deliver so far. He's real chill, and always a pleasure to see.

Hakim came once, and he was cool too.

This crew runs a high class operation whether you go to the store or...

What happened to this place?!?? The website was never really that good but what it has become over the last few months is just like that half working sign you guys have in your parking lot! Maybe instead of trying to grow your own brand, invest in the one thing making you money now! The website barely works, there are like five working pics of the product! This is what the third time you needed to change your loyalty program and if you don’t attach it to an apple wallet it doesn’t work! The fact I need to stand in line to get to a register and then my budtender needs to stand on line to get my product makes me want to never shop here again! Not sure what happened to this place over the last six months but all the good people left and the new people running this place are completely clueless as to what the customers want! The owners are too into themselves to hire the right people that know how a legitimate business is supposed to run! News flash I come to the dispensary for cannabis not for your shity merch!!! The place across the street has their shit together more and have been in business half the time! This place used to be fun and the staff was fun, the last few months make me not want to shop here ever again! Get better people to run this...

The guy that greeted me when I walked in, was absolutely fabulous and made me feel welcome so I was very hopeful. However, the woman that took care of me was horrible. It started with trying to sign up for the rewards program. I was unable to because I don’t have an Apple wallet. She told me without an Apple wallet there was no way I could participate in the rewards program( I have no idea if that’s true or not because with my experience with her she was not very knowledgeable and made no effort to ask anyone who had more experience how to do anything ) So I already wasn’t thrilled with my first experience there. She was unaware of any specials that they were having. One of the other employees there was letting her know some of them to tell me, but she dismissed him. Someone she knows came in after me and she wanted to be the one to Take care of them so she was rushing me and did not answer any of my questions. Even simple ones like is it sativa or Indica? She just blankly looked at me and said I don’t know . Why would she not ask somebody who did know? The whole experience with her put me off completely! I won’t be back. She was rude, dismissive , condescending and seemed to have no knowledge of their products and no desire...
