The Apothecarium Capitola is designed to be comfortable and easy to navigate for seniors, first-time dispensary visitors, and people with serious medical conditions. The dispensary features The Apothecarium’s curated mix of neo-Victorian furnishings, modern touches and plenty of natural light. The store was designed by the same team behind The Apothecarium’s four Bay Area dispensaries, architect Vincent Gonzaga and the interior design firm, Urban Chalet.
All Apothecarium dispensaries have implemented safety standards to protect guests and team members. Protocols include strict social distancing inside and outside the dispensaries, a mask requirement for everyone inside the dispensaries, no contact check-in procedures and ongoing sanitizing throughout the day.
