The Botanist - Canton

This dispensary is one of the worst in Ohio! They are unprofessional and uncoordinated, call them to get a broke item I’ve bought off them to be replaced to later find out when I’m there that I can’t replace it. They then call me an hour later telling me to come back up because of the mistake, waste of time and money.

I'm pretty spoild there! They all are so amazing and very informational! When I have questions they spend the time with me to help me understand. They don't ever make me feel like I'm asking to many question or that I am ruining their day! They all ROCK and are pretty GREAT! 😍 🔥 👌 ✨️ Myssi

Total garbage !!! Just like their employees.

The staff at this location have been super helpful with recommendations and teaching me about the basics of cannabis. Love visiting here! Wish it was a bit cheaper, otherwise I love this dispensary!

The worse and illegal part is that if you UNCHECK this you can no longer checkout thus forcing you to agree to it. Please don't do it. This is not a complaint about staff or products this is a privacy matter. Staff and product deserve 5 stars but privacy matters.

First time at a dispensary and it was a great experience, I'll be back. Everyone was super kind and encouraged any questions I had. If I didn't understand it 100%, they gladly explained further. Good measure of security. Lots of options. Good atmosphere. Decent prices.

I will admit, this is the only dispensary that I have experience with but I’ve enjoyed the place so much that I’ve never felt inclined to go looking elsewhere. Everyone here is amazing. The people are friendly and everyone seems genuinely happy to help me. If I put in an online order, I can be in and out in a few minutes if I’m in a hurry. But I never feel rushed and if I have questions, I always get helpful answers. My first experience here, I easily spent 30 minutes talking to the budtender asking questions and never once felt like a nuisance and that was a huge deal to me.

As a newbie I was sooo impressed with how they walked me through every step and spent SO much one on one time with me! They even showed me Leafly’s app to help me discover what I like and learn about cannabis use. I already recommended it to my newbie friend and have been here a few times this year.

I will never return here again. On my 3rd visit, the system messed up my birth date (or whomever entered data). Should have been taken care of. I return 2 weeks later, ask front desk if birthday was corrected, she calls manager, he calls his supervisor. His reply was that he was unable to sell to me today because of their error. Asshole told me to come back tomorrow. I only get one day off during their horrible hours to get my medicine and today was it. I will be going to Zen from now on. No hassle and much faster service. Plus they offer a rebate program.

I love the cleanliness of the place, the staff is beyond amazing and really great at helping find the right thing.

The staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable about medical marijuana! I just got my medical marijuana card a few Weeks ago for Chronic pain after a car accident in which I broke my neck and back and PTSD as a rape victim— the staff at the Botanist has been great at finally helping me find the product that helps me best- Chocolope by Rivera Creek! 🙏🕉for the first time in years I am finally feeling some pain relief , less anxiety and reduction in my panic attacks and insomnia! Thank you to the botanist and their excellent staff! I highly recommend them! 🌿

Very helpful! Awesome location, beautiful dispensary and super awesome staff

nice people good product

Last week was my first time ever going to a dispensary. This location was the closest to me so off I went with my newly received medical marijuana card. I was nervous about picking the right product for me as I had no experience with marijuana. I was pleasantly surprised with the atmosphere in the dispensary. It truly was very classy and did have an “apple store” kinda vibe. There was no wait, and I was taken care of very quickly. The room where you buy your product is extremely nice, with displays of vaporizers and grinders in glass cases. It seriously looks almost like a museum. There is an atm in the purchasing room which is very convenient. Lowell was extremely helpful and took me into a consultation room, looked over my recommendations from the doctor, and helped me pick a tincture, a bud, and a vaporizer. He answered all my questions and put my mind at ease. There were no judgements, and everyone was very kind and understanding. As for the prices, it’s not their fault that the prices are a little on the higher side, the entire state of Ohio has high prices. I didn’t find the prices overly high though. Very impressive from a first timers point of view.

The physical store and the people working there are great. It is a beautiful store and the people are unbelievably helpful even dealing with all the craziness of the launch pf the program. Ohio of course pulled an Ohio and screwed up the entire program. $50 for 1/10th for every strain is absurd. Who would ever pay $500 for an ounce? Other stated are pulling in millions of dollars from medical sales and good old Ohio is making virtually nothing so far. I won't be visiting this or any other dispensary in Ohio until the prices drop and the selection grows.

I love it there the People that are there help me out a lot the are Very nice Respectable and was able to Answer any question I had to help me out I was in so much pain every day that I was at the point that I did not know what to do any more in life and the pills was not working no more at all and I really did not know Exact way what to look for when I got the for the Problems I was having in my life and they all was able to help me out getting what I need to help with my Problems and now it is a lot easier to live my life and be able to do what I need to do in my ever day life I can not say Thank you A now of to all of them up there and I will all was go there to do my Business that I need to do in my life I know that for Sure thank you all up there for making my life Easier and finding the help that I need in my life Thank you all up there love you all you all are Great up there and I will be back for Sure !!!

The staff are friendly, but don’t seem to have their ‘flow’ going just right yet. Patients should be directed to a greeter who directs them to areas of the dispensary appropriate to their needs. Instead, on the day I visited, patients were let in w/ a smile, and then, nothing. I don’t need to waste my time looking at vaporizers. I’d like to talk to ask some strain questions and place an order. Easy. I’m coming to a dispensary, not a head shop. Apple store aesthetic; service is more Dell Inc. These things can and likely will improve over time.

I stopped in for the first time this past week and was blown away no pun intended. When I walked in I was greeted by Dionee who helped me fill out my form. Then I was lead to the back ( super secure) where I spoke with tashia. She recommend the standard drops because I have reservations about smoking and not a fan of gummys. They worked like she said they would and this has been the most pain free days I've had in a long time and for that I'm forever grateful. thank you tashia for being kind, patient, and knowing your stuff. you are truly an angel

This is my second time here. Came here a year ago. Now the menu is bigger and the prices a bit lower. Still, I would like to see and smell the buds before buying.

Been here several times, everytime is a pleasure. Good quality and prices will slowly go down over time. Nothing they can do to control that. Also, to the people who are asking about menus, if you do the slightest but of research, you can go to their website and they have a menu they update every morning that they are open to let you know what they have that morning, though things can sell out throughout the day so be prepared to go early or have a backup selection.

I went for the first time on a Saturday and it was jammed full. I was told that all that I needed was the print out from the state. Not true, when I finally got to register, they couldn’t scan the print out, so they asked for the dr’s name. It was in my car. I had to go get it and go to the end of the line which was even longer than the first time. They could have given a head of the line pass for the 2 minutes that it took. Very frustrating

I think this is a joke. what government facility is only open for 6 hours a day? I mean at least eight at least. last sale has to be at 6 that's the same thing for every store but except stores close at six people were inside shopping so get that make a purchase. in hours between 12 and 6 I mean are they too much of stoners to open up any earlier like normal Americans in six I drive over an hour to get here do they not consider the fact that I'll be stuck in 3 hours of rush hour traffic through the heart of Akron? this place is a joke and needs to be set up better. any normal pharmacy is open at about 7:30 a.m. and doesn't close until at least 9 a.m. because they know that their patients have to work for a living. unfortunately this is one of the only few that are open but just needs to change or I do not see this being the number one place to go. more like a last resort

The staff were all friendly and helpful. Signing up didn't take long and wait times were no more than ten minutes once inside the store itself. I'm pretty new to handling cannabis flower, but it seems to be of high quality. Definitely potent. My small complaint is that they were sold out of vaporizers, though one employee gave me the address of a nearby store selling herb vaporizers. My BIG complaint is that bud here is crazy expensive. $50 for 2.83 grams, which is the only quantity in which they sell. Hopefully the overpricing will change once more dispensaries open in the area. Canton is almost an hour drive for me, but with the limited options, it is worth the trip for now.

Xavier was the budtender cool helpful guy...steep prices but to be expected. quality was exceptional.
