Commencement Bay Cannabis - Yellow

This used to be my go-to spot when they first opened. Their budtenders are awesome, however their menu has not been accurate lately. At all. The last two times that we've gone in, they didn't have anything that was listed on their menu and they tried to sell us other strains that we didn't want. I really felt sorry for the budtenders that would scramble around and try to come up with solutions for their lack of inventory. We normally spend about $200 a visit, but with these continuous inaccuracies with their menu, we'll be spending our money at shops that actually have what they say they have. Get it together, CBC!

Great prices, with awesome customer service! I never felt rushed, and they helped me find just what I was looking for.

Super convenient, right off of the freeway. I got my Oleum for cheaper than I've ever found it, and some wedding cake flower that was on point! super tasty. The staff even though they JUST opened, seemed t know their stuff. Thanks for the awesome service, I'll definitely be back!

not accurate menu

Long-term medical user here. The building is cool, but that's about it. Super long wait times, no way to browse product before you're at the counter, "budtender" had never heard of the strains he was selling. Way way way above and beyond Washington State security requirements; to the detriment of the customers. Fortunately, Cannabis is such a high profit margin industry, there are endless better-run alternatives.

The parking was great as was the location, it's near to everything. The line wasn't super long at the time I went which was during busy afternoon rush hour, I had to wait no more than 15 minutes. The staff was polite and the atmosphere was professional. My one recommendation is they offer menus to patrons waiting in line so they know what they want when they get up to the counter - this will speed things along. I purchased 2 pieces of glass which have proven to be good quality and the prices were more than fair. Commencement Bay had many flowers, concentrates and edibles to choose from. They tend to keep their online menu updated which is a plus. I'll be back to see what other shenanigans I can find!

Been to over 150 medical/recreational stores form Portland to Bellingham, over the last 8 years. And this place is one of the nicest, cleanest, places I've been. And the flower selection in great all high quality strains grown right! And the prices are amazing, I never cared about prices because the best fire is worth it but when I bought two eighths of weed snob approved Flowers's for 57$ it blew my mind. Most places that would have been 80-95$ so you take all that into consideration it's one of the top 3 stores in ever been in! Don't sleep on Commencement Bay.. you will leave happy!

I love this place! I used to drive all over Tacoma but on my way to the casino thought I would stop in. Now I drive from Tacoma. This is the only place I shop. I have a favorite bud tender but forgot her name. She’s very patient and so helpful. I broke my right hand and had difficulty holding things and lighters. But she fixed me up! And the flower she recommended has become one of my very favorites -Alyze -by Exotiky And love that senior discount.

I am sold on this store, It is nicer, the people are friendly, this is the first place, I have had the group engage in conversation with me, the place is the Taj Mahal of Tacoma dispensaries. I am a medical grower. I know my marijuana. I will tell you the prices they have on the flower here, you cannot beat it. Honu (Good Pot) Animal Cookies is all around excellent, I had to choose it as a replacement for the Soltice - Candyland, they discontinued Soltice I guess, it was 35% thc, and it was the best thing I have ever put in a pipe. Anything that is a cross between GDP and Platinum Cookies is bound to be good, but this stuff had a cure on it to rival any I have seen, good clean burn white ash, and terpine level was off the charts. The Honu Animal cookies shares the flavor traits and is less sleepy, so I dig it. Other than that, if you buy a 15$ eighth, stick to Northern Berry, the little extra leaf is okay the quality and purity is there, the Emerald City Organics - Marionberry kush for 20 an 1/8 is decent, flavor is very hashy a little woody Could have a better trim, trichomes are great but leaf is too harsh to leave that much. The Head Cheese is a decent Cheese, but beware, it starts out friendly and will rock your world if you smoke too much, i kind of like the cushion pack style, burns great. Thats all I have for now, Leafly may list WOW as the top shop, but my money is on CB and it will be.

This place is fire dude, I have gone in here multiple times & have never had a bad expirence & always leaving happy with the product & customer service. Seriously don't let inflation change y'all keep up the quality vibes & product

I used to go to greenside recreational in Des Moines which is still pretty good but the atmosphere there feels rushed... and some of the people coming in off the street are little shady in that area... so when I found Commencement Bay while I was in Fife area I could not believe not only do they give me a senior citizen discount... LOL they've got the best prices in town and the staff is so friendly and knowledgeable and if you ever get a chance to talk to Sonny he's awesome... I will travel a little further to get quality product from a quality place.

Veterans Day discount only if you have proof that your a veteran. You don’t get Veteran ID after you serve your country. Happy Veterans Day, Jerks!

Sometimes there are long lines but thats ok. Respectful, friendly security. Some of their deals on bud are crazy good. I like that they have their menu up on screens around the room as you wait in the line, as well as a printed version of their menu in binders so I can browse while I wait :)

OMG!! Best Shop in Pierce County! And Stormy is there! Can't ask for more!!

love this place! Wide open and friendly, great prices and friendly staff, my new go to!

My mom and I (lol) came in today to check it out and LOVED it. The staff was very nice and sooo helpful. No pressure, which is always a worry since I get anxious when I feel like I can't take my time and browse. The guy at the counter (I wish I could remember his name but he was bald if that helps) was very nice and answered all our questions and explained everything in depth. My mom is new to weed and he wasn't annoyed at all of her questions. He gave us a lot of recommendations and we both left as happy customers! I will definitely be back and recommend this place to others!

I’ve been coming here for a very long time now. Definitely has the best prices. The thing is not once, not twice, but three times in a row that I come in I notice their staff just acts a bit arrogant. Back then the atmosphere was outstanding, you would walk in and feel welcomed. I wouldn’t even mind dropping extra cash because the staff was so energetic and encouraging. Now when I walk in it’s almost like these same staff members just have a big ego. Today I stood in line watched how a register opened and the cashier turned around ignoring me so the cashier right next to him had to assist me. But the moment I mentioned i just wanted a $5 joint he made a face and looked at the dude next to him. I mostlikely won’t be going back. But good luck and I hope you guys continue to have a successful business even with your shitty staff.

My favorite shop in the south seattle area. Technically in fife(pierce county) but for me is worth the drive as the prices, selection, and quality are always top notch.

Sorry but I am not very happy I shop here EVERY FRIDAY since they first opened but I was just sold a $20 panacea gold blunt stick and the whole thing is ripped wont even hit which I don't see how that's possible since it came in a glass container, whoever rolled it completely bungled it, it's like a toddler rolled it, it doesn't hit at all the weed in it is f*cked I had to tear the whole thing apart to reroll, AND I BOUGHT THIS AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT FOR SOMEONE HOW EMBARRASSING. Please you guys get your sh*t together with your suppliers else it's going to lose you your longtime customers that have been with you guys since the day you opened... not too happy

Stopped here on my way home from work; I new it as the old cigar lounge/restaurant place. First impression(s): ease of access, huge building/parking lot, very inviting, professional and nice security, gigantic selections of glass, edibles, concentrates & flower, super friendly staff, dope prices and even awesomer product! shout out to the homie wondering how the OZ of Pink Lemonade is/was...beyond amazing, especially for only $180 an ounce.

Easy to find next to the casino. Big fancy lodge with a unique vibe. Large selection with good prices. Security was friendly and welcoming. Budtender lacked knowledge but was very friendly. I recommend commencement for their prices and selection.

I’ve quit going anywhere else. This place is 4/4 on recommending a good strain with the criteria I give. All four recommendations have come from four different bud tenders. I am greeted with smiles, service is quick, the prices reasonable and the atmosphere is great. Look for vendor days. I’ve gotten some good deals.

My brother shops here and told me about them i bought some oils from them and one of them leeks and I called them about it and they said to bring it back so i did and when I got there they checked the battery on my vaporizer and then said it was fine if the battery worked its good after i drove from yelm to there and i spent 48 dollars on it and all it did was leek everywhere so i broke it open and put it on something else but what a waist it was and I feel like I got ripped off.

This spot consistently has pretty good weed, shorter lines during lunch time and pretty long ones after 5, All the staff is humble and helpful, love stopping by on my way to work or way home.
