The Botanist - Akron

Rude, unknowledgeable and unsafe

Stopped in to day and picked up my favorite Woodward GrapeHead and also tried a new on Butterfly Effect Og Kush. Very nice mellow effect that makes you feel above the weather. Love this location and the people. That’s for being you.

Great service and very helpful about what I should use.

I was very glad when this location opened. Then as I met the people that work there I was even more glad and impressed. They are always very friendly and knowledgeable. They will answer any question you might have. I've never had to wait for curbside pickup! I'm grateful we can still get what we need during this shutdown time. They always follow the safety guidelines. For our safety along with their own. I have nothing but high praise (no pun intended) for the work they do! Thank you!

Kind and professional staff. Wide variety of product and always expanding. Great overall experience every time I visit.

The Botanist has great weed, but the Akron location was terrible. Bad communication between all the employees obviously and I would drive almost an hour here for my favorite strain because it's one of the only places that has it, but it's not worth it. I would not recommend.

I have been to this location before two other times and they were great experiences. unfortunately the last visit I placed an order over the phone. I believe an hour before arriving.upon entering I realized they were busy as I waited at least 20 mins on the phone order before I could start. I placed my order arrived at the location after a 34 minute drive exactly .they let me in the door where I checked in. My name was called I stood up and was lead throughout the building as stuart somebody as i believe my name was mixed up somehow.After reaching the final dispensing room. I watched 5 people who entered after me some of them not having an online or over the phone order placed recieve service before me. It wasnt until they called this stuart fellows name that I informed them I had possibly been let in under such a name. As stuart clearly was not in the room. They informed me they knew I wasnt stuart and then checked my name and information again. Upon discovering what my order was they informed me I just had to wait a little longer while they got my order together. so in total recap...I called them at 1pm waited 20 mins on the phone drive another 40 mins to the location and waited in total another 30 mins through the fiasco of who I was and another 10 minutes to put together my preorder. I really do prefer this location to others in the area. however if you can avoid ordering on the weekend as it is going to be nothing close to a quick trip.

I am a caregiver for my friend with stage four pancreatic cancer and accompanied him to purchase his first medical marijuana. The staff was very accommodating and helpful! Our counselor took her time to explain everything about medical marijuana including the different ways each one works and which ones would help my friend the most for the problems he is having. she explained the different routes available to purchase such as gummy ‘s, tincture, cream, vapor . She answered all of our questions thoroughly. Everyone there was very professional and the facility is immaculate. Thank you so much for spending time with us today. Your kindness will always be remembered.

This place is becoming a joke put a order in at 9:15 AM before they were open and now I'm off work about to go there they call me and say oh yeah we can fill your oder wanna try something that's 80 dollars and what I was getting was 22 like that's a joke on top of that it was a pre order. Just make sure when you go to order something they actually have what you want! They don't tell people this things they just call you last second and say oops yea we don't have what you want and all we can do in suggest something that is out of your budget! SO UNPROFESSIONAL AND WHAT A JOKE!

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!

Was my first time to a dispensary so i had no idea what to expect. Greeting staff was friendly and kind and answered questions in a polite tone. Bud Counter worker seemed very friendly and ordered my products as i listed them. Waited inside for about 10 minutes and order was completed. On my second visit i used curbside pickup which, would have been great had the guard who watched me pull in and sit in my car, sat in his truck and ignored me for a good 10 minutes. The next car in was a pretty lady so he practically leaped out of his truck to wait on her. In the end i had to ask him if i was supposed to speak with him. After that, the service was great.

The Botanist is the best. The staff is helpful and friendly and the product selection rocks.

Love the Botanist I think best prices around the staff well they are all great Tia , Dave always make me feel welcome and thier are several others they are quite knowledgeable thanks to the people at Botanist I've learned alot . Have great day everyone.

I get way better deals than this. Im not hating. Im good tho. Not giving my money to the government

Good vibe on Opening Day, easy to shop, friendly staff that is knowledgeable. The prices are crazy but at least prohibition is over!

Yes, the recreational prices are wild but as a former medical patient, they aren't incomparable. I'm not going to penalize the dispensary for the current climate around pricing. They made changes since going rec that are excellent; ordering via kiosk, debit options, decent parking...it's a bit cramped at times but the ordering is so efficient you don't notice. Definitely recommend The Botanist to anyone who's just starting out with legal cannabis.
