Golden Leaf

Finally made it to the Golden Leaf today to try their flowers. Hands down the best price of $20 eights in the AV!!! Retail or non retail you wont find better prices! Bud tender was very helpful and will be going back soon!

I had a hard time locating it. It sits back off the road, and I passed it at first. I was grateful for the beach scene of Palm trees and a beautiful sunset very artfully painted on the aluminum frame in the roomy dirt parking lot. Nice shade trees provided a quiet respite from the noisy busy road directly in front. Now I will admit to becoming spoiled by the awesome smoke shop I frequent. I like to visit new places when I'm away from home.This shop had me wishing I was really by the sea rather than in a painted seaside in the desert. So far I haven't felt really comfortable in any of the desert smoke shops I visited (3 maybe).The heavy security fortifications in most high desert locations is CRAZY! And this one definitely was trying to achieve that goal. From the huge airport type metal detectors, that didn't seem to be plugged into anything to the two square holes/windows cut mid waist with a plexiglass box set low in the wall. So, I walk thru one of janky looking detectors, praying the thing doesn't fall on me. I step up to the nearest window, and stoop down to look thru it. The young lady says, come in thru door. Great, I say. I walk into the tiny little room that's about the size of small carport. There's a glass display case, two cabinets with some items in it. It's dirty. The whole room is dirty, it looks like a teenagers bedroom. And looks like someone just sleep on the bed/lounger set under the one window in the room behind the counter. Focus, I tell myself. On one side of the glass display case sit about 4 to 5 Mason jars of product. All of them are about half full. She's standing there grinding up some product with her fingers in a bowl. Which set aside after a minute of me staring with my mouth slightly opened in mild shock.Directly in front of me a young man sits staring at me in squat wide black upholstery chair blocking the entry to the other side of the counter.So I take a look, smell it, identify strain and ask prices. She measured with her hands (it's CoVid ya'll!). Prices were written on board, prices were reasonable. And then she pulls out the scale, I started laughing because I'm so used to it be prepackaged and stamped with all the information. Let me tell y'all - it looked short. Like I was transported back 20 years ago, back in the day when I had to go to Ray Ray's house, in the back alley across the way. Then I discovered they only took cash, I said would back. But honestly, I never came back. I figured it was time to leave and just call Ray Ray directly.

The staff here are very attentive and polite. I came one day just to grab a quick 8th to calm my anxiety. The girl working the counter was super sweet and recommended me some London pound cake. The prices are good and it was fairly quick. I also got some edibles to try out!!

Flower is straight fire!!!! Concentrates are decent...not sure how they're made though.

It's burned down was a great hidden gem tho. Unfortunately now you have to drive to the valley

I have been a customer for several years and they are always wonderful. Thank you! They also have some great smoke. I like their I dica myself.

First time going and the girl was pretty chill. I forgot the ask for First time deals but thats my fault. Produce is great!
