I live right down the street on the beach and this is my local. Its well stocked. Best of all they have a Military discount!
Don’t come with an out of state ID. I was visiting my friends in Long Beach and thought I’d check out the dispensary’s and this is the only one that rubbed me the wrong way. The made me recite my whole ID and when I told them everything the security came and told me my ID was fake. They said they weren’t giving my ID back until I threatened to call the police. I had to show them my student Id from the university of tennessee and my plane ticket from Tennessee to get them to give my ID back.Long story short bad vibes all around. Don’t come if you’re out of state.Highly recommend HAVEN. Super friendly and very knowledge about their products.
Literally the only place I have found my favorite strain. Recommend the place for the prices and the people. The parking however...brace yourself to not find parking or bring quarters for when you do.
I usually love this place I’m really sad. I don’t know if it was just a bad day or what but the customer service I got was lackluster. I asked for a fruity tasting smoke product which is pretty easy and usually the employees there have knowledge so they can find me a product that I like. Not this time… I got recommended a product that was gross at best. Wasted 60$ or more on a product that i won’t use. Very disappointed. It’s only three stars because it’s so rarely happens this place is usually great Just not this time.
Always a pleasure to come to this location. Staff is always friendly and happy to answer your questions. Today I was helped by Gabriela R. I had no knowledge about cbd for my dog. She shared her personal experience and extensive knowledge. Really appreciate the help.
I like this place. Comfortable atmosphere and no pretentious budtenders. Everyone Ive encountered has been so pleasant and helpful. Today I had David, who was patient and answered all my questions fully. He even suggested something special for my husband for our anniversary. Great place, great location!
Our budtender David was very friendly and knowledgeable about their products. My first time experience at the Belmont Shore location has probably been the best out of all the locations I’ve been to so far. Thank you David for your customer service! Will be back again.
THIS PLACE IS AWESOME!!!! I won a gift card at a beach clean up event and I couldn’t have been luckier. As with all shops I was a bit bit nervous walking in as a first time customer but as soon as I walked in I felt welcomed and taken care of. The staff made great recommendations. All the products I tried were new to me but all amazing. From start to finish all the employees were helpful, nice, and very chill. I’m not from the area but anytime I am near I will 100% make a stop at this cool place. 5 stars for sure.
Best clinic hands down!! Love this place. Staff is very helpful and David always does a great job explaining different strains ans helping you find what you need
This is my go-to shop. Joseph was my budtender today - he was very helpful and informative. Also patient while I narrowed down decisions. Thank you for all of your help!
Ive visited many dispensaries. And the worst ones are the all fluff, no substance name brand shops that charge you more and give you less. The flower in this place is mediocre and dry at at best. I guess fully licensed doesnt mean fully knowledgeable. Prepacked cannabis will immediately dry up no matter how much glass you use. Unless its air tight in plastic. And so far, very few shops can claim that. Ive recently tried vape distillate thc and I have to pry information and good suggestions out of every budtender so I can make an informed decision. Recently sold a rechargeable buddies disposable I was told was a rechargeable battery. Then a buddies cartridge that isnt compatible. All rushed.I try to get budtender, I get hurry up offense... your local drug dealer or mom and pop have better product and prices. Shops like Haven, The Circle, Catalyst, etc, are all hype and no substance.
One of the best dispensaries around. Prices and quality are amazing as well as the staff. Theyre super helpful if you are trying to choose the perfect product. Special thanks to Sam. Every visit has been a great experience!
Love this place. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. Nicolas helped me today and made excellent product recommendations. For the ladies: Wednesday there’s a 15% off discount for women!
Always a first class experience! Great selection, great people!
Enrique provided insightful & rapid service. My wife and I love coming to this spot. We’re never disappointed here. Thanks again.
Always a pleasure to visit Catalyst. Ciara was exceptionally helpful and provided excellent recommendations. A solid professional delivering world-class service with a smile. Outstanding experience.
Klarrisa was great, super honest and knows her products. I’m happy they are close by, I love coming here 🔥
I love this dispensary. They are always friendly, knowledgeable, and quick. Klarissa helped me out with my order and she found exactly what I was looking for quick and easy. Definitely recommend this dispensary and thanks Klarissa for the great experience while shopping for my weed-needs!
David was really cool and super informed on the rosin selection. Always good to get great service with knowledge to back it up. Definitely coming back. SMOKE MORE WATER HASH!
Love this place and have been coming for years, but had a pretty crazy experience yesterday. The General Manager Sam had told a group of seven of us that our IDs were fake and had to be confiscated by the police, knowing they were not fake everybody complied. Immediately our IDs were then returned and we were told to leave the store despite no cops coming to test the fake IDs. I then went to the counter and said I have an account with points and use this ID at this location weekly, after another 30 minutes of being told my ID was fake I was let in after showing my debit card and other form of IDs as well as my Med Card. For reference I am 20 years old with a med card and they were claiming I had a fake ID when my ID Only Says 20 yrs old. after 45 minutes of drama which I was compliant and polite through the manager Sam let us in and rudely handed me my ID. No discount was provided for inconvenience, no sorry was given, I asked if the system was having problems and I was told by him my ID was the problem, the same one I had used every time for over a year. Budtenders here are amazing, product and pricing is on point, People at the front are helpful and friendly and I do plan On returning soon Hopefully Sam isnt there.
Luis was most helpful and polite best customer service ever but i always have a good experience there but today Luis went above and beyond!! Thank you!!! Go Luis you rock!!!
Order online, quick run in & out in 5 min. Budtenders are always pleasant. Perfect.
Amazing deals! Joe was extremely hospitable and just turned this girl into a loyal catalyst customer
Luis L., the budtender, had such an unpleasant attitude. Not to mention the two, not so courteous receptionists. The strains are still superb!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE all the bud tenders there are helpful and nice. They have a great huge selection and I’m always happy with the products I get. They are always having great promotions and deals for different things.Shout out to Caitlin I love her she is so nice and patient with me she helped me understand the difference strands and what’s best for me. She didn’t have a problem answering any questions I had 100/100 must go spot
Excellent product...Excellent service...I will be back 🎶🐢🎶
Veronica was very kind and knowledgeable, she helped me find the medicine I was looking for and even reccomend something new. Ill definitely be returning!
David was great and new everything about the brand I was interested in. Even if he hasn’t tried the strain before he can still give you an idea of what to expect. Definitely will come back again and recommend.
I love this place, the service, and the way that everyone and everything is not only Professional and clean, theyre just nice people. Everytime I go there, no matter who I encounter, its always the same experience and I love giving Catalyst my well earned business.If you get a chance, say hi to Dave the bud tender. Hes the only one I know by name. It doesnt matter which bud tender helps you, they all give great service to any customer. Dave has helped me out more than once and its usually when Im in a hurry and I start barking my order. Dave gets it. I ask for his thoughts, make my own choices, he rings me up, I ALWAYS leave money in the tip jar, and Im out the door. Its that quick, that efficient, and that well run.I absolutely love Catalyst. They earned my business the first time I walked in the door. They earn my repeat business because I go back and they know that. Now theyve earned a review. You dont have to take my word for it, just go there and spend some money. Theyll do the rest and you will be back over and over again. Catalyst gets it and I wont spend my Cannabis dollar anywhere else in LB. I know a good deal when I see one and this place is THE REAL DEAL
Decent selection, but they do tend to run low on things.Most all of the staff is friendly, and as tight as parking is I always find a spot within 1-2 blocks. Ive been pretty happy with this place!
David was a wonderful bud tender, friendly and welcoming staff. Can’t wait to go back. Many thanks, hope he had a wonderful birthday.
The best customer service, advice and selection. David always gives great recommendations. Good people.
When entry this facility, we were shoved in like cattle and treated as such. The staff was eager to get myself and friends to pick items and move on.There was a very small selection and it was disappointing. I had heard good things about this store but evidently each location is different. I came out dissatisfied with my treatment, the prices are not good and I wish I would of just left without item. Horrible and embarrassed I took my friends there.
Excellent check-in people who are always all smiles. Product is great and affordable and the environment is clean and excellently staged.
Great i got what I needed closer to home. And they pay the tax! Fantastic
Joe was courteous and informative. Great shipping as always.
Caitlyn helped me out and was super patient and very nice. Actually one of the nicer ppl there
Courtney M was very knowledgeable and friendly; Im newer to using cannabis and she helped me find what I needed while patiently answering all of my questions. She even helped me pick out a better vet CBD product to help with my 13-year-old dogs joint pain! I love this store and the staff.
Came in for the top shelf Tuesday and got 2 fresh baked 4 gram smalls wouldn’t honor the discount for some reason first time ever this is new to me they always give me the discount basically didn’t get what I wanted and horrible customer service I come here once a week they treat me like I’m trying to finesse them I will no longer be coming here they lost my business
She is very friendly. She knows her cannabis and thier healing brands of Flower and VapesI have been coming to Catalyst. Used to be Connected. I have been coming ever since opening. I live on Covina and its so convenient and Catalysts has the best prices, the Greatest Buds and the best Budtenders, I should know been using Canibis for over 40 years and its been very helpful with my health issues.Thanks, VickieDavid, Rocks, always makes me feel like a friend !!
David was awsome check me out do quickly and he made sure I had everything I needed e
Courtney, when I am fortunate to have her help me, gets me out the door with what items I was wanting in hand, no problem. She can also help in introducing new productss, deals and discounts when availableThumbs Up! (Its recognizable)Thanks Courtney!
Over priced. Purchased house brand connected flower on 4/20/19. What they don’t tell you is that the flower is from 10/25/18.Product was incredibly stale and completely dry. Walked back 5min later and was told all sales final. Trash weed and trash service. Great place if you’re uninformed or enjoy long lines.
Very unimpressed by this dispensary. Bud tender who helped us out was obviously stoned and couldn’t help answer our questions-then pulled out his vape in the middle of our conversation…We might have spent more, but couldn’t get clear answers to our questions.Overall apathetic and unhelpful vibes here. Won’t be returning.
Gabbys the best bud tender 💜
Had a really nice experience today! Denise R was super helpful on giving me suggestions and informing me of the deals going on. Pleased with my purchase. Thank you.
Nicolas is a pleasure to have helped me. He’s very knowledgeable and has excellent social skills. He really is a pleasure. I appreciate his opinion as he’s always right on
Always get great customer service here Joe was amazing got me in and out!
It was my first visit and Enrique made the whole experience really awesome and was super friendly as well as the entire staff there. Ill definitely be back soon!
Caitlin is so nice & knowledgeable. Give her all the bonuses!
Always super friendly and attentive! All love for this shop! Fred has always been my go to guy. Havent been in the shop in probably 6 months. Glad to see great people still working here!!!
Every thing I bought was good, my 1st time there.
Joe was a phenomenal and chill budtender, would return again definitely
I’ll definitely be coming back! I enjoyed being checked out by Enrique, I was automatically greeted with a hello and was given amazing recommendations. I really appreciate the great customer service! (:
David was really helpful make my selectionsThey have a pretty good varietyPlus if you can get there by Sunday this week its a additional 20% off
This place is great 👍😊
Caitlin was da best! Got me hooked up with all the deals! Thank you..
Good deals, helpful and knowledgeable budtenders. This is my favorite dispensary in the area
Best prices on concentrates. Honestly the cheapest shop in Long Beach. Cool people too they really went out of their way when there was an inconvenience to make things right ! I think her name was destiny, went out of her way to apologize cause they overcharged me for one item but she quickly added a discount for next time :-) this has been my go to for Dabbing wax and stiiizy pods for a while now.
Caitlin was amazing.Denise needs to be added to the list of awesome. She helped me with my pen and told me how to reuse the container. Ty again!
Always a great experience, staff is so helpful snd nice. They help me really find a product that works for me according to my needs. Sam helped me out and was helpful and knowledgable as always.
Friendly fast and efficient thats how they roll
Mayra is always friendly and helpful, I usually just get stiiizy cartridges but whenever I feel like trying edibles she always has great recommendations on which ones I should try
Nick is always so sweet and helpful. I always come back and hope he’s working ! thank youuuu
Destiny P was friendly and engaging. Very helpful in helping me secure a great deal on product
Such a great collection and vibe here. Shoutout to Dabstiny for always making me laugh and having a holistic understanding of all the offerings. 🦾👍🏾🙌🏾
Not going back here. Running online special that I ordered and had a total for, and get in there and “oh that’s a mistake sorry we won’t honor that” Not with the bait and switch. Each location is different like a horrible little franchise.
Always great prices & they don’t surprise you with tax right before the sale.
Fred was cool. Was able to keep a conversation and showed me some fire pre rolls
We love Catalyst because they have a great selection of high end brands with the best prices in Long Beach! They also have a great assortment of vegan cannabis products!!
Thank you Enrique and Courtney for helping me out today. I came in because I needed a replacement puffco atomizer, and I was in and out within 5 minutes! They are running a 40% off stock up sale and a bunch of BOGO deals so I couldn’t help but grab a few other items while I was there. I was able to buy a 6 pack of Cann social tonics, and I got ANOTHER 6 pack for $1! Best part is tax is already included in all of their prices. Don’t sleep on Catalyst! Hands down best prices and deals in Long Beach!!! Great location, easy to find parking and absolutely no wait.
Luis L gave some great customer service and is always very helpful whenever I come in, which seems to be quite often lol.
☮️Excellent location and amazing bud tenders! Courtney always has the best advice❤️🙏
Awesome place with excellent edibles, just WISH they had some diamonds from left coast, but besides that excellent products and very friendly ppl :D
Well stocked shop. Very sweet and friendly counter help (David and Frank, too). Reasonable prices. I was in and out painlessly.
David is an Awesome Budtender he’s really helpful and Knowledgeable. Come see him when you get a chance. He can help you out on what you want.
BUNK... found a moth hiding in my dried up trees.. called up 1988 and my old dealer too.. this place blows
Ciara was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful! Thank you:)
I have been coming here since I moved to Long Beach in January. I have always had good experiences w this location and spend a ton of money here. Last week I bought two “St. Des” pre-roll blunts (upon the bud tenders recommendation) and smoked them later that evening w my bf. We smoked them both back-to-back and didn’t get high AT ALL. I brought the package in today and let the bud tender know my experience, and a guy( I’m assuming the manager) interjected into my conversation w her and basically said “oh well, too bad these things happen.” Then proceeded to insult me by saying that he was “just told” they hit really well (I doubt it, and don’t appreciate him saying Im lying). Needless to say this rubbed me the wrong way... now I’m going to shop around for another dispensary. 5-stars for the bud tenders and 1 star for the rude manager. That’s not how you do business.
Service is always great, The employees have recommended great flavors and quality of products. La Familia chocolates are delicious 🤤
Skohler is always with the happy tension and always has the best answers to give me when I ask any question, I definitely recommend everyone to preview with the assurement that each product is promising and fulfilling 🔥🔥🔥🤙🏼🤟🏼
Thank you Catalyst Belmont for your continued exceptional customer experience and service. Also a thanks to Nicolas he was very informative and an amazing budtender!!!
Nachoo is a great help and any given product you all sell is top notch
Great variety of products and Daniel was super patient and helpful matching me with the perfect products!
Been going to this place a little less than a year and it’s definitely worth it for the scenic part of town it’s in. Customer service has never failed me here and they always keep the consumer in mind by only carrying fire products, shoutout to Samatha K. for the recommendations today. #weedforthepeople
Super cool dude! Was very helpful and patient.
I will never forget egalindo best service and knowledge for anything you need
Nice people fast quality service
Gabriela always got me, she helped me almost every Sunday night the best.
Im not living a bad review at all.because i love ur store and ur product.but i whent to get some friendly farms products expecially crumble because of the deal and the bud tender that helped me told me that they were all out on crumble and everything else that they only had cartiges from them.and later on the same day and today12/8/20 i saw on ur time line that u still had some and i drove again all the waythere and i was denied some again.
I visited the Belmont shore location, and was helped by Enrique. He was very helpful and quick, which I appreciate, because with stage 3 cancer I get tired easily...... Thank you
Ciara was very friendly and helpful
Great Service... with shattered + bulging discs on my back arthritis and PTSD theres no way I would go back to pills. And this young ladies and cool gents are really knowledgeable... I had ask a few tricky questions because I know a few things about cannabis (Im from Sinaloa) a few of the guys impressed me with their knowledge ...good job guys. Request ... close later 9 is still too early for some of us please. Thank you.Update sat aug 14 -2021 the good looking masked lady with long hair who show me the product ..morphed into a good looking masked dude with a yellow beenie...

Samantha K and Denise rock!!Caitlin made my dayFred always has good insight.

Nicolas O always has the best insight and vibes, great customer service!
Always good service!
Best shop in LB staff always super friendly
Seemless online ordering process, from site to pick up. Greeted by warm, smiling faces and checking out was a breeze as well. The store is also very cool and clean inside. Beautiful dispensary in Long Beach.
Denise, is always helpful and lets me know about discounts and their deals. She is great and the overall atmosphere at catalyst Is fantastic.
