Get ready for the Top 3, the Bottom 3, and the complete ranking of all 18 Montgomery County recreational cannabis dispensaries.
Top 3 Montgomery County Dispensaries
#3 gLeaf - Rockville
gLeaf gets high praise for variety, specials, and parking, but it's the bud tenders and customer service that keep people coming back. "They treat their customers like family and that is something I can appreciate," said a resident whose sentiment was echoed by many. Located on Hungerford Drive just north of downtown Rockville, gLeaf has ample parking and a huge 355 storefront.
#2 Rise - Silver Spring
The county's second highest ranked dispensary, Rise - Silver Spring, is consistently praised for its wide variety of products, quick service, and convenient online ordering system. Among their friendly and knowledgeable staff, Izzy and Batman are repeatedly mentioned for being outstanding.
#1. Peake ReLeaf - Rockville
Montgomery County's Top Dispensary hits on all cylinders, with knowledgeable and efficient staff, diverse products, and "a points system that is off the hook," according to regular customers. Peake ReLeaf's user-friendly website, the dispensary's sleek interior design, and the wide range of smoking accessories on display, help set it apart as Montgomery County's Top Dispensary for 2025. Although Peake ReLeaf suffers similar parking deficiencies as other dispensaries, it's for good reason. Their neighbors on Chapman Avenue--Gilly's Craft Beer and Los Primos restaurant--are among Rockville's best in their businesses, offering Peake ReLeaf customers a bonus cannabis connoisseur perk.
Bottom of the List
#16 Trulieve - Rockville
With Montgomery County's Top Dispensary for 2025 located just 0.3 miles away, Trulieve has to step up its game to win the hearts of local residents. Customers say they feel rushed by staff who aren't friendly and complain about long waits and early store closings.
#17 Green Goods - Rockville
Nothing pisses off Montgomery County residents more than lousy parking options, and Green Goods' tiny, narrow lot with its occasionally overflowing dumpsters is the worst among dispensaries. Customers are also disappointed by the stark and dimly lit store with its uninspiring product displays and limited selection of accessories.
#18 Health for Life - Bethesda
Poor customer service is the most common complaint about Health for Life, with customers saying staff are sometimes rude and lack product knowledge. They are also critical of the dispensary for inconsistent store hours, a glitchy ordering system, and specials focused on less popular brands.
