Additionally, as part of RISE’s tradition of giving back to each community it serves, a portion of profits from the grand opening event will benefit a local nonprofit organization.
“RISE Dispensary Allentown carries a broad range of trusted, high-quality cannabis products for patients, including RYTHM premium flower, full-spectrum vapes and concentrates, Good Green flower and full-spectrum vape, (inc)ensored troches, and Doctor Solomon’s topicals,” the release states.
RISE Dispensary Allentown, which held a soft opening in September, operates at a renovated property that was previously home to The Sweet Spot Bar & Grill, a full-service restaurant and bar featuring Topgolf Swing Suite golf simulator bays, which closed last year.
RISE Dispensary Allentown welcomes registered Pennsylvania medical marijuana patients to shop in person at the Lehigh Street dispensary, located just south of the Interstate 78 interchange.
The dispensary offers a “welcoming, easy-to-navigate space where patients can shop a full medical cannabis menu and get personalized guidance from our team — seven days a week,” according to the business’ website.
