The Best Weed Dispensaries In Ontario, Canada

These are our favorite cannabis shops in five major Ontario cities and regions.

It’s been four years since Canada legalized recreational cannabis. Although Ontario stores have seen their fair share of licensing hiccups and bumps down the road, the province’s cannabis space is standing tall and flourishing.

In fact, the first year cannabis was legalized, Ontario led weed sales and brought in a whopping $217 million. Fast forward to 2022, there are more cannabis shops than ever and more consumers too. Ontario’s cannabis scene is so busy that there’s practically a dispensary on every block, maybe even two.

With so many shops to choose from, there are bound to be a few bad apples. We’ll help you weed out the not-worth-its and point you toward shops with impressive product selections, great staff, beautiful designs, and an unmatched vibe.

Here’s Herb’s list of the best dispensaries in Ontario, Canada.
