The Botanist - Montville (Med)

I moved here from the south where everything is 20 yrs behind and obtained a temporary card. Being new to all of this I had no clue what to expect. I have since quit taking pharmaceuticals for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and PTSD. Herb is a wonder drug for sure. No wonder it has been illegal for so long. Everyday we get closer to legalization on a federal level. What’s my insurance pays for the medicine, that will be the day. Good job.

I have been going to this place since Feb. 2015. Nothing but professional. Ask a question and you will be more than informed. The sales they have are pretty decent too. This month I decided to purchase 28 grams. When I got there they suggested ( with no pressure) that if I mixed and matched from different growers they would take $60 off! Now I have a variety to choose from with different stains and strengths for different times of the day - instead of being confined to one specific medication. Thank you Thames Valley Alternative Relief! I am relieved! I love the future!

I am very glad that I picked this dispensary, the people are so caring and have a strong commitment to bringing their patients the best product for their specific needs. They also try very hard to keep donations reasonable and offer an excellent array of choices for medical cannabis and some accessories too. Friendly compassionate people in a comfortable, safe atmosphere make this a very pleasant visit, and the products are of the best quality and very specifically therapeutic for your condition(s) which the staff offer expert, pharmacist advice upon free for every patient. If you are new to using the medication or a regular patient, they do their best to make you comfortable and feeling safe, well treated, and best of all, with affordable, reliable symptom relief from a consistent high quality product array.

love love loved this place! helped me be super comfortable about my first purchase! totally plan on coming back again and again, the women there were so compassionate! totally recommend this facility!!

Good people very they make u feel right at home.

very happy with my expierence. Very comfortable atmosphere and educated staff. Consultation was very specific to my needs and the two products I have tried so far are very helpful relieving my symptoms. So glad I picked them as my dispensary.

Friendliest, most knowledgeable and by far the best dispensary in CT.

Friendly and knowledgable!

There was a gentleman speaking very loudly about politics. Some patients, myself included, asked him to stop. The staff quickly came out and asked him to wait outside. It made my trip so much easier.

My only complaint is that no "street" name me u is viewable online

Definitely the most Friendly, Helpful Staff, EVER!!!

Have amazing flower and pre-rolls. They always have a lot of creative strains and are always good about letting you know what’s good for your specific problem. Love this place.

The staff is very welcoming and always asks how I am doing and asks about my day. They provide helpful knowledge and guidance on which products will help with my symptoms most. I have been coming to this dispensary since 2018 and I have had no issues. Keep up the amazing work! -Hannah C.

I watched the staff be rude and unhelpful. Calling a patient "special" because she needed help. Allowing her to sit in the waiting area crying then denied her care. She's been a loyal customer for years and left crying. I would NOT ever shop here or allow anyone I care about to be seen here. The staff was discussing the patient in ear range of customers and just awful. I would bet the other reviews are employees and friends. Worst dispensary I've ever seen.

Excellent staff. cheery, helpful, kind and empathetic. The best!

The staff here are truly compassionate and knowledgeable and the offerings are extensive. They really go the extra mile to help you find the best strain and type within your budget for your needs.

10/10 would recommend! Friendly, knowledgeable and patient staff, and the attached smoke shop is incredibly convenient. Never had an issue with the products here.

Most caring staff around

I love this place

They are always willing to help you. Their courtesy and manners are exceptional. I like how you can ask the same question after a while they still respond to you very excellent. They go above and beyond. All of them are super nice.

Everyone at the Botanist is always friendly and doesn’t mind getting theirs ears chewed off every once in a while.

The staff at the Botanist make you feel like family. They’re always available to answer questions or make a suggestion that suits your needs. They’re the best!!

Wish they had some old school hash. The rest of the products are fantastic. Wish they had Lumen in flower form too love the place

Friendly and knowledgeable staff! Great selection of products!
