Easily the best bud with some of the lowest prices around. Great indoor selection. Nice they include tax in their prices. Really cozy and welcoming shop. I always learn something new about marijuana from the budtenders. Awesome people!
Amazing prices and real friendly informative staff. Thanks guys!
Had a great experience today when I went in for the Christmas special. I was surprised to see it open through the holidays!
This is quickly becoming my favorite and most frequently visited dispensary. All the strains taste great, and I’m looking forward to trying some edibles soon!
I use to come here a lot but recent few stops in, the bud has been super grassy and hay flavor. Have tried multiple strains from them too and they are just way to pricey for some oregano.
Very thoughtful, knowledgeable, and caring people who run this dispensary…Fun place to hang out and I learn more each time I visit !!! The only place I shop !!! and now they have edibles!!!
Good medicals ..very knowledgeable staff.good prices .
Still my favorite place with my favorite people. Amazingly sweet with wonderful recommendations when i don’t know what i want.
Easy to find. Within walking distance from my place. Great deals, great customer service. Every one there cares and listens.
Awesome helpful staff, willing to take time to help out a noob user 🙂
Love this place. The people are very friendly and beyond knowledgeable. They are all about the medicine not just another drug dealer type shop. The prices are great. Tried pretty much whole menu of dry herb and all were acceptable. There stand out strains for me (sativa lover) are: killingsfield, Kali mist, and shipwreck (for daytime fictional high). The only thing they are lacking is high cbd strains. I like what they stand for and I love their herb so I will continue to be a customer.
Great service, great prices and great product.
These guys rock!!!! Everyone that works there welcomes any patient with open arms. They opened to help people heal and that’s what they do. Hell, I go just to B.S. with them.
Now, I know that there are some reviews complaining about their security carrying a weapon. My response is, have you watched any sort of news program over the last year? The weapon is present for their and patients protection, get over it.
cory is my dawg hes an awesome budtender
prices unreasonable higher then everywhere else. small selection
Awesome place, great people very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend to friends!
cool people. Garbage product…. disappointment overall. Far better places for the same prices
Really great place. Nice, friendly, good suggestions…great platinum kush for happy hour price!
Great location and great budtenders.
It is the best and least expensive location on earth in my opinion.
Nice location. Wish product was fresher.
Straightforward and courteous service!
Having read other reviews, the negatives ones for this dispensary are really laughable. When you walk into this dispensary you feel like you’re in an upscale doctor’s office. The only thing your doctor wouldn’t have are video games. The medicine is only top shelf and there is no other dispensary in this area with more knowledgeable staff. From everything I can see, Alpha only sells the best.
Kimbo Kush. You get what you pay for and this is the best and most potent medicine I’ve ever used.
the quality is amazing there service it out standing the atmosphere is very relaxed feel at home thank you guys for everything couldn’t have made it without you 🙂
I’ve been going here for about a year now and it’s always a pleasure. not only are the deals actually deals, the variety of the flower and oils are something to respect.
Professional atmosphere, and extremely knowledgeable staff. They took the time to make sure all my questions were answered. very delighted with my visit, and I’ll definitely be back.
the people are very helpful and very nice. they have alway answered any questions I’ve had.
knowledgeable people not pushy with the flower which I like. honest about the product too. really like this place and it’s going to be my go to from now on.
only went there one time but they seems very knowledgeable about it. Also they were willing to work with you so you can have a variety
They have okay prices, but great deals if you catch them when they come up. The quality of the weed can range… sometimes they have things for sale not on the shelf and if you ask, they’ll give you a peak at the hidden items. Overall, I really like this tucked away, dispensary, in a pinch or when I want low THC .
My all time favorite place! They pick out stems and have a punch card and they even gave my dog water dY’–dY’–
Great place. . Friendly people with God knowledge of their products. Excellent prices. prerolls are pretty good for a low price. .. Well worth a visit.
This is by far the best dispensary I have ever been to:) Everyone is extremely friendly, caring, and informative:) All the flower is top notch and genuinely organic. They always have great prices and deals and some of the lowest glass prices around. This is my new #1 dispensary
and I will only be going to them:) Keep up the good work guys!
always have a good time coming and see everyone here, always get what i want when i come and have never been disappointed
A uniquely quaint experience! The staff is smart and super friendly. The selection is small, but superb in that each strain offered is meticulously chosen to satisfy even the most discerning customer. I am abundantly happy to have this dispensary serving the greater Salem/Keizer market! 🙂
I just had my first visit this week and I know 2 things. First, I’m definitely coming back! I liked the selection, I felt welcome, I think the quality is very high and the prices are reasonable. And that leads me to point number two. There are a lot of fake reviews on leafly! There’s no way someone can walk into Alpha and say the place looks bad or that their product is expensive. The dispensary looks upscale and most of the bud is under $10. Those reviewers have either never been in or they’re writing fake reviews. The people who run it are knowledgable and friendly.
great quality great location great staff
Super friendly and knowledgeable people my go to shop
UPDATE: I tried to give Alpha another chance, and ended up disappointed yet again. I will not be back. Everyone says how nice these people are, they don’t seem any more welcoming than any other dispensary in Salem. In fact, I feel like I really have to engage them to get them to tell me about the products, my questions are usually met with blank annoyed stares, and get comments that are less than helpful like “everything we have is good…”. The budtenders often being very stoned doesn’t help their customer service. My biggest complaint here is the quality of the product. I’m not sure if the buds are being picked too early, or not being cured correctly, but I get a very minimal buzz out of most of the products here, especially for being 20%+ on THC. What would last me over a week from other dispensaries lasts me about 3 days when I purchase from Alpha. The buds are almost always VERY moist, to the point I have to sit them out and let them dry to smoke them (I’ve tried at least 6 different strains here, all but one were like this). This place might be ok for novice cannabis users with no tolerance, but there are MUCH better dispensaries for seasoned smokers.
Nice place. Good medicine. Friendly people. Doesn’t matter if your 55 or 25. They treat everyone with the same amount of respect. I reccommend it.
awesome place with people who know there job and are more than capable to help people with little knowledge and even people who are more informed. close place in town good prices and very clean. if you want quality and good prices with many different choices this is the spot
These guys are awesome hell yeah I’d go there again and I would bring a buddy too.
I have now had several visits to Alpha. This is a 5 star operation. They are friendly and extremely helpful. They employ a top notch testing regimen for their products. They work tirelessly to help you find the information and products you need. I always leave Alpha with a smile on my face.
Great people really resourceful and knowledgeable. left satisfied my new favorite place
Great place! The staff is knowledgeable as well as friendly. Very comfortable atmosphere. The meds are TOP SHELF with basement prices. Not only will I be back, but I’ll bring people in!
The best dispensary around for sure! Always great weed!
Great people with competitive prices on quality product!
Went on 4/20, staff was friendly, extremely knowledgeable and willing to share that knowledge.
Great staff! Super helpful and always friendly! Good quality and great deals! I never go anywhere else!
The more I come here the more I dY’sthis place.Bad ass staff and buddY’dY’OE
Everyone was friendly and helpful. It was a lot smaller inside with a small selection to choose from. I got Blackberry Diesel and absolutely loved it, it is a nice mellow happy high.
I have nothing but kind things to say about this place. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. And their prices are pretty great too for someone on a budget. Allie, Shae, and the others are awesome.
The staff were knowledgeable and really friendly. I really liked the combination of Blue Fondo and Geisel!!! it was recommended that I mix the two and it was heaven, the perfect combination of medication!
Thank You for being so informative and open!!!
Quality medication, impressive selection, awesome atmosphere (I’d love to work there!), staff with encyclopedic knowledge of medical marijuana, and some very powerful bud. Even though I’m 30 miles away from Keizer this dispensary is worth the trip!
The white widow is pretty much the best I’ve ever had, their rso is the best in town, the coco caps helped my insomnia, and the people are fantastic!!
Product is getting better, from when they opened. The place is relaxed with knowledgeable staff that really try to help; not just “here you go take this, it’s good”
I recommend this place to everyone cause the intel is great… especially once the newer product falls in.
Truly love all those that work at THIS OG DISPENSARY of KEIZER (punny bunnie lovin the greens)!!! Much love and Happy Forth of July– lets make it Christmas in July, shall we?
I love how budtenders are personable and very knowledgeable! PLUS PLUS IS THAT THEY ARE BLOCKS AWAY!
I really liked the friendly service and the meds were really good. Try Blue Widow. It’s fuckin potent!
I like it!
Good selection friendly knowledgeable staff good pricing awesome quality of potent smoke definitely recommend going here to get your medicine.
I love this place!!! I do shop local and occasionally go to other shops but I always return to ALPHA due to their staff and product. I always walk away happy. They are willing to go the extra mile to make sure I am getting the right strain for my needs. I LOVE the people there it’s like visiting with friends. Products are good with a great selection. I would highly recommend them to anyone!!!! I have shopped here since recreational pot became available and have really been pretty regular at shopping here. LOVE YA ALPHA
CATS
They have a wide selection of all types of nuggets. Solid service and legit prices. Definitely coming back around.
This is a small dispensary run by wonderful and informed people. Although small, they have a good selection and variety of product. They’re my main source of medicine.
Very happy to finally see a quality medically minded dispensary in Keizer. The owners and staff truly care about helping people with their medical issues and always get to know the patient before recommending any treatments. They are very knowledgeable about the chemical makeup of their products and have detailed lab testing done . The best part of this patient minded mentality is the very reasonable prices. I hope they continue to grow and provide some healthy competition to the Salem area.
P.S. Please sign the petition they have to be able to sell consumables in Keizer as this is an unfair and uneducated policy that fails to account for patients with sensitive lungs or patients that prefer the extra body relief edibles provide.
Alpha has been my one stop shop for all things medical for over a year now. The employees there are fantastic, Wally, Mr House, Corey every employee is ready to help you out and answer any questions you may have. They have Happy Hour Specials, a few different kinds of pre-rolls ready to go(priced fairly) and so many concentrates to choose from. Alpha has remolded their waiting area too, tons of room now with glass cases full of pipes, rigs you name it. I know my business is appreciated when I shop at Alpha, its a nice change.
I feel that flower is very low quality for such a high price.
Interior looks more like a doctor’s office. Great atmosphere! Good selection for just having opened. Budtender knows his medicine and facts aEUR” very knowledgable.
Nice to see a medical dispensary that’s taking this medicine seriously.
knowledgeable staff, awesome product, great deals. Love the convenience
My first time visit was actually a while ago and I am a repeat customer since but I moved across town & haven’t been in a while… Very friendly ALL the time but also completely professional and by the book. They gave me a lot of information and I left with some amazing flowers AND a topical that was Ahhmazzing…. Keep being the Alpha Dog in the bud bizz 😉
this is my absolute fave dispensary to go to… all the employees are absoluetly awesome and outstanding customer service!!! and always amazing green for awesome prices!
this a small down to Earth
it would be in “Mother Earth News” Great Service and Product . They respect Loyality
They are only “store” which
weighs product in front of you
Could be way better. Nothing free for first time patients. Mid-shelf bud at top-shelf price. Expensive prices. I wouldn’t visit again they’re are much better dispensaries in Salem. Don’t waste your time.
Great service and selection. Always leave this dispensary with A grade medicine. Highly recommend checking it out!!
I moved to Oregon last August and this is the only dispensary I visit! They are always friendly and willing to answer questions. They have a large selection of flower, oils, edibles, etc. and are very reasonably priced.
Awesome strains and prices! The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Great place to go.
Good atmosphere, good location, good people but I’m sad:( I went there when the price for shatter was 45$ an now it’s 35$. Guess It Looks like gotta make a trip again while the prices are down.
Same faces since they opened, they truely care about the customers who walk in and they been delivering a top quality product with great prices from the beginning. Favorite Keizer go to.
My new favorite dispensary.
Excellent service (deserves more than 5 stars) and the knowledgeable staff helped me understand more about the medicine in general. Really pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. Very professional. Pretty good variety of products with the lowest prices I’ve seen in this area. I tried the Jagermeister. It was a little dry but perfectly cured. Definitely top shelf. It had a very interesting scent aEUR” kind of like a mild sweet citrus with another scent I couldn’t place. The effects were just amazing. Killed my pain and anxiety.
I’ll definitely be back and I’m bringing my friends.
Alpha Alternative Solutions is possibly my favorite dispensary. The staff is friendly and helpful and their prices are easy on the wallet. I also get a kick out of the sign spinners every time I pass by.
great service great product!
i went back a second time and I’m not sure what I was thinking when I wrote the first review cuz actually the quality is realy good and most of their stuff is indoors and even organic and they got some of the best prices I’ve ever seen so I recommend them
it’s like walking into your high school dealers house, outdoor I mean it’s low budget at best their $12 a gram bud is their only bud worth it’s weight, they have good oil and they know alot of information if you ask but it would probably have to be the worst shop I have stopped in. I know they will be offended and probably delete my review but that would just validate my point. they have a lot of fixing to do to this shop. I hope they do so.
It was a fairly easy process getting in and out, clean location, and most important quality flower products although the selection may be few at times.
These guys never fail to impress me. Every visit just keeps getting better. This is by far my favorite dispensary – they don’t make me feel nervous and shy when trying to explain my issues, I feel like I can really talk to the people here and like they’d really relate to me.
Also amazing – they made a note of my preferred name and pronouns in my file. That really meant a lot to me!
Thanks for a great visit, guys!
This is the best store I’ve been to. Fantastic selection of strains, wide variety of wax, oil, edibles, etc. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Definitely suggest checking them out.
This is the first dispensery that I went to and I have been in love with this place ever since. Great prices on pieces, flower is a little spendy but the quality is way worth the price. I’ve been to other dispensaries and not one of them can compare. The staff is absolutely amazing and caring. They even have a pay it forward jar. I love it! The only dispensary I trust.
Not a huge selection, but it’s a nice, relaxed place to go. The people are friendly.
the guys down at Alpha Alternative are very Educated and know there Medicine to the T! went in on Christmas for my first visit and left with joy to know theres top quality A+ Absolue Shatter at first i was sceptacle about the donation
but once.i got.home and sampled it cured my migraine in seconds. i recommend all to go check them out -one love-
Fast, professional, and friendly service.
The prices are reasonable for their high-quality product, and they have the best pre-rolls in town.
They also have happy hours, stamp cards, and frequent sales.
It’s one of the best places to buy cannabis Salem; pay them a visit and you’ll see why.
Probably the lowest quality shop in the area- dry overpriced product. The shop area itself is quite small and uncomfortable.
Nice dispensary. Amazing glass prices. Professional. Clean. Fun people. Decent selection of flower. Prices are competitive. Lots of indoor. Lots of oils and edibles. Really like the appreciation card! I’ll be back.
Alpha is my neighborhood shop, just down the street from the house always have quality product. Budtender are cool atmosphere is calm what more could you need.
WHY DO YOU NEED A GUN. I have been in here a few times and their selection rarely changes. Usually low to mid grade green house flower. Prices are ok for what you will get, between 6 and 9 or 10 dollars a gram. I also felt very uncomfortable when I noticed an employee brandishing a fire arm on their hip, this is a dispensary not a prison. Will it be ok if I come in the shop with my fire arm on my hip? Probably not. I wouldnt do that any way this is an environment that is supposed to be worry free like a Dr. office.
To get my business back I would like some of these issues to be resolved and I would give them another shot.
Great place, the people are friendly and helpful, the bud quality is consistence, and the pricing is reasonable. I like that they have recreational pricing listed on their web site too
Great place and very knowledgeable! Excellent products
love the selection and the prices of the wax cartridges
I really appreciate the customer/patient service they provide. They have been professional every visit with not only myself but other patients as well. I like how everyone knows what they are talking about and not giving false facts. Very impressed!
very nice place..friendly staff that is helpful. would go back there..
Awesome prices! Great service.
Nice place! Good prices especially for organic flower. No edibles because city of Keizer hasn’t legalized them yet. Really knows their stuff and really up on the latest science. Very happy and will be back soon.
Really impressed with Alpha. The owner was VERY knowledgeable about the flower they carry, and also about the medical properties each one is suited for. Everything is 100% organic. Friendly + polite staff. I’ll definitely be back
The staff was more than friendly when I visited which is what stood out to me first. It was also incredibly professional and their selection of flowers was not only reasonably priced but very good quality. I look forward to shopping here again!
Nope – No – No thanks. I went in looking for medication. I purchased some to be kind, but not because it was what I wanted. The selection is sub par for a shop, hard to believe that they can keep the doors open. Folks were nice enough, but the selection was weak.
This place is a joke don’t how the doors are still open glad there are more shops opening in the area he quality of the bud is awful bought a preroll from them and tasted like cigarettes straight nasty! People don’t waste your time
Good quality bud selection and prices.
Ben, I just want to say thanks again for having a very inviting, and wonderful place to go get my medication. I enjoy walking into your business having a pleasant conversation with yourself and ALL the staff, and walking out of there EVERYTIME with QUALITY medication and great knowledge about cannabis in some form regarding to my personal ailments. Being on a budget and having day to day life expenses on top of needing quality medication, I appreciate your very reasonable donations and its so nice to have someplace to go where not only do I feel comfortable, but so does my fiance, whom which is my caregiver, but new to the cannabis world. So again, Ben, Cory, Ally, and ALL the staff at Alpha Alternative Solutions, thanks again. P.S….. the “New Years Bubbah”, GREAT for pain and helps induce sleep, if sleep is a problem. Might I also add, the “Jagermeister” is one I can personally say, works wonders on pain and insomnia. Either way, I encourage EVERYONE looking for quality medication, to stop by Alpha Alternative, YOU WILL WALK OUT THE DOOR HAPPY!
Great customer service and very helpful
