Reviews of The Hempest
4.4 (14 reviews)

All of their clothes are either hemp, organic cotton, or some other natural fabric, and they have some good styles- however, most of their inventory is "weird" in some way- either too hippie or cut asymmetrically. I was looking for good basic clothes and was a bit disappointed actually.

Clothing store with nice wears. I will definitely be visiting this store upon returning to Northampton. After reading a review from '08 regarding the clothing being "too hippie", I would have to mention that I think this aspect has improved.

I dig this place. I bought my wife a hemp check register wallet thing on my first visit a few months ago, and I got her to buy me a hemp wallet and a pair of hemp shoes for my birthday just today.I really like the clothes. Mostly earth tones, and generally 55% hemp/45% cotton. Most men's clothes - pants, anyway - are better suited to medium and larger build guys. Of note, they have hemp/cotton vests with recycled plastic lining for those not into the whole "down filling" thing.Prices are a tad on the high side (speaking of which, check out the head shop inside for some "ornamental" glass objects), but within reason for what is being sold. Maybe some day our government will get their congressional heads out of their fat asses and let us grow hemp once again, and prices can come down a bit.

High quality, over-priced clothing in a style appreciated best by liberal arts professors, other over-educated post-hippies and their environmentally responsible college student children.  Sized only for those who are healthy, fit, or thinner.  Still, fun to window shop in a touristy sort of way, no clothing store better fits my stereotype of this town better. Well maybe the used bookstore that only has critically acclaimed literature and postmodernist critique thereof, right across the street, but then this place is a close second.

Owners have been at the forefront of MA legalization for the last 30 years, and have been selling sustainable hemp clothing, accessories and body products before people knew what it was all about. Now we finally get to shop there for legal cannabis!!! It's a great shop with helpful staff and a good product selection. Go check them out!!!!!

Good place good people good product. Been a fan of this place for years. I'm excited for the dispensary!

Best dispensary I've been to, hands down. What a joy to discover The Tempest, a shop that serves as the perfect foil to these massive weed corporations bogging down the industry. The Tempest's environment is both warm and welcoming, heightened by a staff who is incredibly kind, well informed, and a ton of fun to hangout with while you make your selections.  Couldn't give a higher (haha get it) recommendation!

Stopped by to check this place out after hearing about it from a friend.  Ample parking.  Good assortment of products. Guy behind the counter was nice and helpful.  I was happy with my purchase.

Love the store bought my first glass piece here and it was quality made customer service is amazing I really care about what they do such a cool store coming from a city where things just don't like that and you can't find a store like that I have to say the place is effing amazing...Yes the prices are a little on the high side but I always believed that you get what you pay for so I think it's worth paying a little extra for something that's going to last a lot longer

To be honest I’m a little conflicted about this review. I went there about bought $140 worth of pre-rolls. After getting home I realized one was about half the size of all the others so I decided to weight it. Came out to below a gram with the paper and the filter, so I called them and they told me to bring it back it and they would take care of it. After waiting for about 20-30 min the employee that was helping me said that it would be illegal for the to accept the return. After they called there boss they ended up giving me a %20 discount of my next order. I haven’t used it yet and i hope they will honor it.

Had a good experience here , super helpful nice people. Had some questions about a strain of two and Hunter was more than happy to help. They care about the medicine and product here and have the best deals I've found in the sea of Northampton dispensaries . 5/5

Nice location with side parking. Owners are great and knowledgeable. A must visit. Great glass options as well!

Hands down the best cannabis shop in The Pioneer Valley! Their selection is absolutely through the roof, incomparable to what I’ve seen in any cannabis other shop I’ve been to. And moreover, the staff are as jovial and helpful as can be. When you enter the front doors you kinda feel like you’re walking into a friends house, but they all happen to know a ton about cannabis. Can’t recommend them more, absolutely an A+ ?

Super friendly and helpful staff. Very clean and cute location with great prices and variety. Our go to dispensary for sure.
