8 licensed shops open in Riverside right now, ranked on a star rating weighted by how many people actually left one. Plant Galaxy Dispensary leads at 4.9.
A 4.9 from 300 people is a weaker claim than a 4.8 from 7,000, so every rating here is pulled toward the California average in proportion to how few reviews sit behind it. Both figures are printed on each entry.
1270 Center St
Regulars get steered to the PG carts by budtenders who know the specials well. Reviewers also like the look of the room. Curbside pickup, delivery and a free parking lot cover the practical side, and debit cards are accepted.
Open
240 Iowa Ave
Nearly every review names the same budtender, praised for quick service, sharp recommendations and finding the best deal. The large selection at fair prices includes deals on 710 Labs, and staff across the floor are called knowledgeable about what they sell.
Open
1601 University Ave
A small, clean, well-lit shop where approachable budtenders know the menu, and Rove is among the brands on shelf. Reviewers also call it affordable and friendly. Order ahead for pickup, since parking is minimal.
Open
287 W La Cadena Dr
The Harry Potter themed room gets noticed, and reviewers point to the drinks and the discount bud as worth a look. Staff are described as welcoming and careful with packing. Doors lock at 9:45 pm even though the listed close is 10, so arrive early.
Open
8642 Limonite Ave
Daily deals and a points system keep regulars coming back, and the selection is described as reliably well stocked. It is cash only with an ATM on site, and the lot is big and secured.
Open
A star average hides how many people stood behind it. Every rating is shrunk toward the California mean in proportion to its review count, so a shop needs a high score and real volume to reach the top. The weighted figure sits next to the raw one on every entry.
Every one Google lists as open and licensed under a cannabis category at the time of the last check. Shops that had closed permanently or temporarily are dropped, as is anything that turned up in the search but sits outside California.
Because we have not read one. Plenty of shops sell only through a third-party ordering platform that publishes nothing on their own domain, and a brand list is not worth guessing at.
Quarterly. Ratings move and shops close, and a list nobody re-checks becomes a directory of places that used to be good.
