Dispensary Review: Table Mesa Wellness Center

The Table Mesa Wellness Center can be found at 4730 Table Mesa dr. They are open from 10-8 Monday through Friday and 12-5 on the weekend.

Quality: Not very impressed is how I felt while looking at this collection. Some of the buds were pretty good but most were mundane.

Prices: Non-members must pay $18/g, 55/1/8, and 350/oz.

Quantity: TMWC only carries 8 strains

Extras: The Wellness center carries quite a few extras. For one, there is an attractive woman who provides massages and yoga lessons. They had a ton of nice looking edibles and they did have some nice hash that was a little over priced at $40.

Overall: Not to impressed; the space was strange and not very inviting and the owner was a little weird (he wore a lab coat but had kind of dirty hands). The buds were overpriced and not that amazing. The prices are too steep as I can not envision going back for my own meds. Other than the attractive masseuse the Table Mesa Wellness Center really didn't do it for me; in these economic times I can see this dispensary closing its doors in the near future.

Rating: The Table Mesa Wellness Center gets 4 green thumbs.

Dipensary Review: The Medshed

The Medshed is all the way up in North Boulder at 4483 N. Broadway. They pretty much have a different schedule for every day but it is basically 11-8 every day of the week.

Quality: The Shed had plenty of nice strains to choose from. I saw a Big bud diesel that looked really nice and certainly carried the pungent diesel smell. Some of the others were the 5280, lime green skunk, sweet diesel and the blueberry headband. I had a chance to smoke the 5280: even though the sample I had was a little dry, as it was the end of the batch, it was a very smooth smoke matched with a nice uplifting high. They had plenty of unique and interesting buds to look at so be sure to look around.

Prices: I wasn't wild about their prices but they did carry some stuff that was worth the money. The grams range from $9 up to $22. I saw a very nice lime green skunk for 13.50 but the upper shelf buds definitely carry a high price tag. The nice part is that almost all of their top shelf buds go for $55 an eighth and some eighths are down to $40.

Quantity: The Medshed carries about 40 strains and They mostly sell grams and eighths but they can do ounces. you might have to mix and match as supplies are limited.

Extras: The Med shed had plenty of the usual extras (tinctures, pills, edibles) but they also had some nice bubble hash for $29/g.

Overall: The med shed has a nice homey feel and some decent deals on lower shelf buds. Their prices seemed to be in flux and changing day-to-day. They have a lot of high quality meds that are mostly homegrown. If you live in the North Boulder area you should certainly check these guys out.

Rating: The Medshed get 7.25 green thumbs.
