Reviews of The Botanist

Noah Brudapast

Great service and set-up. Staff is accommodating from security check-in to purchase. Very well knowledgeable on their products and will gladly answer any questions or give advice. Good menu selection on all cannabis products. Plenty of space when inside and waiting for your order. Only downfall is parking...it being in downtown, it doesn't have its own lot. Expect to pay for street or lot parking. My go-to dispensary!

Amber Nichole Ratliff

My favorite dispensary in Columbus. It’s beautiful, well organized, they have great options and different specials all the time. The staff are all amazing and so kind & welcoming. I love it here, I don’t go anywhere else.

Mags

Wonderful and professional. The employees are very nice and super helpful. Amazing selection and good prices!

Megan Thompson

Great place! Super friendly and welcoming. Environment was great. Very helpful & great recommendations for my condition.. you have a customer for life now! You are not treated like, just another number.. and the wait time was Awesome.. pretty quick in & out.

Cody Toops

Great place and really helpful staff but the 1 and only bad thing is it’s cash only. Makes it complicated and feel sketchy. Imagine going to a pharmacy and having to pay cash for “medication” it’s outrageous and feels like a drug deal in which it is. If you can’t accept card reconsider running a business in 2023.

Jaiden Williams

The place is honestly amazing as a first time I definitely recommend this place to anyone who is just getting their medical card the stuff is extremely helpful and kind the inside is beautiful the only downside is the parking but other than that will definitely come here anytime I need something

Mariah Pontious

Really beautiful! And great customer service :) I'll have to remember to get myself together a little more next time; felt super underdressed when a very well dressed gentleman graciously opened the door for me. Definitely a pampering experience ❤️

Michael Howell

My first experience there with Care Giver. Kati I think was our cashier and educated on Cannabis. Wow! Great job! Hope to work in it in the future!

Chuck Westfall

The staff here so great I go out of my way just to shop here. I'd rather pay a couple extra dollars for great customer service and online ordering that consistently on time for pickup. Botanist Columbus #1

Joe Vasquez

I am entirely new to cannabis use for either medical or recreational purposes. Getting my medical marijuana license was a bit of a Hail Mary pass for relief from chronic headaches. I was a little intimated at first, not being familiar with the history, culture, or language that has formed around cannabis use. After some research I chose The Botanist in Columbus to be the first dispensary I tried. After that first trip I see no need to check out the other dispensaries in town. The store is warm and inviting looking from the outside. The friendly front desk staff quickly checked me in and took me back to the purchasing area. The interior is warm and softly lit, with jewelry-style display cases showing off some of their hardware. An ATM is available in the store, but for a fee. Transactions are cash only, so come prepared. After only a brief wait I was assisted by another extremely friendly and helpful staff member, who was able to set me up with everything I needed to get started, and for a reasonable price, including a strain that has helped alleviate my symptoms. I have been back several times since that first trip, trying out different strains and forms, and everything I have purchased from The Botanist so far has been absolutely top notch. I will be returning to The Botanist for all my future purchases, and see no need to check out any of the other dispensaries in town.

Michelle Saunders

Staff is always super friendly and helpful. They may not have the cheapest prices around, but I would rather spend a few dollars more and go to the botanist. Ordering online through their website for pickup or curbside is the way to go and the quickest way to get in and out. The staff rocks!!

Marcus R

Their quality of service fluctuates. I've had times where I'd come in and people that came in after we're served before me. I'd say it was just coincidence but it happened several times. They are an ok store to visit though. Location is convenient or I'd make Verdant my primary due to the deals they have weekly

Virginia Held

Completely happy and floored at how wonderful the staff here are! Every single one of the staff were above and beyond kind, insightful, and patient. I never felt rushed and it honestly felt like every member truly enjoyed working there. A special shout-out for the super kind soul wearing rainbow glasses, taking the time to explain the process of purchase and going into depth on the products in an amazing manner and tone! The Botanist is an extra 20 mins from my closest store, but this experience made me feel so safe, respected, and comfortable… The Botanist is now my go to! Plus, the interior and energy in the building is STUNNING.

Rich

One of the best experiences I've ever had at a dispensary. The store is very nice and super chill, prices are competitive, and the staff is always friendly and happy to help. My first time only took 25 minutes between sign up to recieving my order and is almost always faster every time I return. This is definitely the most professional dispensary in Columbus.

Roobz A

I give inside 5 stars and curbside 1 star. The curbside person will make you sit and wait anywhere from 15-20 mins cause they dont want to walk 20 feet more than once per pickup time. (I heard him saying it to the security guy). Everytime I've gone in it has been great so that's what I will be doing from now on.

Wade Smith

New to this dispensary...I've been trying to visit as many as possible. Upon reception I asked to speak with the manager/owner for a tour of the location. Rony took me in and gave me a tour. Very very friendly. If your not sure if medical is for you you can stop by and discuss your options directly with him. They have privacy rooms to consult with you. Ok parking is across the street and taxes are not included in the shown price. I was lucky to be there when one of the cultivars was in and spoke with him as well. His company is the Captain Cake product. Thanks guys

Alex “From Biscuit to Baker” Rybicki

Absolutely the best dispensary in Columbus. The staff is absolutely amazing.. Fast, funny, friendly, and always to the point. Well worth the small premium in price point to pay the right people. What I save in valuable time, and not having to deal with the extreme frustration of any other Columbus dispensary is priceless. I'll never go anywhere else.

Ashley

The workers are friendly and are happy to answer any questions you have. It was really nice inside as well. My only complaint is that only a few people (workers and patients) were wearing masks. I was scared the whole time I was inside since I am high risk for COVID. Many people who go to dispensaries are high risk as well. I strongly suggest making masks mandatory in your store, as this would make everyone feel more comfortable.

Rebekah Russell

People who work there not only friendly, they very quick and don't make you wait very long, they have a selection that no other dispensary has but the parking can be kind of a pain

Larry Byerly

The atmosphere is like that of a jewelry store. Displays are in glass showcases. Very classy. Security is even classy as well. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. They make you feel like an old friend when you're a returning customer and they get to know your name and personality

Seth Robinson

This place is great, the best experience I have ever had since using medical Marijuana. Highly satisfied with from the time u walk in the door until u leave everyone is friendly and knowable good prices also. Thanks guys this will be my new dispensery from now on

Strange and Wonderful

This place is amazing. The staff sat down with me when I was researching and had questions. They spent a lot of time with me and didn't rush anything. The staff is ALWAYS friendly and very knowledgeable about this area. I have never felt rushed or anything. The ONLY thing I will say is it is a little on the expensive side BUT, with that said, their products, staff, and assistance make it worth a little extra. Also, they do offer Veterans discounts and discounts for people that are disabled or low income. Approx 25-30%. That makes them 5 stars, all day, in my book!!!

Teresa G

I live 1-2 hours away from most Ohio dispensaries, so I know I will be in the car for a while. This place is worth the drive! From the gentleman that greets you at the door, the front desk staff, to the bud tenders - every single person was friendly and helpful. It's gorgeous inside! The selection and displays are great. They were Busy, but my wait time was minimal. This is where I plan to go in the future. Definitely give them a try.

tina staton

If you are in need of these services I feel this is the place to go. I have been to a couple other places not far from The Botanist and I feel so very comfortable with all the people that work there they are very personable and knowledgeable and will take as much time as needed to explain any questions you may have. The only thing I would like to see is better parking I feel very exposed coming and going.

Kaylee Lucero

I love coming to the Botanist! Security and front desk staff are always welcoming, kind, and try to get you back into the show room in a timely manner. They usually have what I need but sometimes they have a smaller variety of products compared to other dispensaries in Columbus. MOST (but not all) staff is knowledgeable about products and can recommend something great! The big parking lot close to the building and the ability to drop off right in front is a plus!

Sean Burdine

Absolutely my favorite dispensary. It's very efficient and the staff is welcoming and personable. I have yet to have a bad experience. Avoid the first of the month if you can, it gets super busy.

James Metz

Perfect experience. Lovely staff, great menu options, safe environment, decor and music are on point. Like no dispensary I have ever been to.

Wes Hall

Awesome dispensary my go to place in Columbus!! Awesome service and facility. Very professional employees. Very knowledgeable as well on all things about Mary Jane and it's various forms of consumption.

Tiray Randle

The Botanist is a really good dispensary. All of the employees are helpful, courteous, and knowledgeable. They always have good strains and decent prices. My ONLY complaint is, that they had a better system. When they text and tell you your online order is ready but it still takes a while for them to call your name. It’s never really an in n out trip. Other than that, I highly recommend.

CUA

This place is solid for the most part but wait times can be ridiculous. Even if you make an online order and come at the right time, prepare to wait 30+ minutes for them to call your name and receive your items.

Gregory Betz

Great experience! Awesome selection of strains and a nice looking store. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable.

Amber Mohler

My boyfriend and I frequent this store a few times a month. The first time we went it was waaaay quicker than I could have ever imagined. They take you in the lobby 6 at a time. After everyone is checked in, you are ushered to the back where all the wonderful, yummy varieties of your medicine are kept. Goes super smooth every time we go. The staff is knowledgeable and courteous.

Mrs. H.L. G-B

Interior was nice. We found close parking in a free lot near by. Not a large waiting area. The main 'showroom' was nice. Had a jewelry store set up with lit display cases of packaging samples and info cards and hardware but no one on the floor selling or assisting. The clerks, I assume because of covid, did not come out to help customers. There were only 2 employees that I saw. Online pick up seems to be their mainstay for now. Their flower 5.66 + selection is better than other shops in town, especially for counting days. Their specials weren't advertised but applied. If its your first visit with them there is paperwork. They'd prefer you come in early if that's the case.

Brian Roessler

Great Customer Service, the first time patient process was extremely quick and had a huge selection. Will definitely be back to this dispensary. Highly Recommend!

Luca 'Renée' Shoal

Amazing clean dispensary, gorgeous displays. Fast service and friendly tenders. Park as close as you can to the building if you're in the public lot diagonal from the building. That's the free parking for here. Pride gummies!

Jen K

All staff were incredibly kind and patient. I had a 45 minute consultation that helped me figure out which products would be most beneficial for my needs- the staff is so knowledgeable! Check out was easy and there is an ATM onsite since The Botanist only takes cash. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.

Mitch Trout

I stopped in at 2pm on a Wednesday and just managed to beat the rush. As a new patient I felt I got processed faster than normal compared to other experiences, it usually takes at least 20 minutes for them to process your new patient forms, I was brought back around 12 minutes from first entering the facility. Great atmosphere, bud tenders, and medicine. My new favorite medical dispensary.

Kimberly McLaughlin

I love this place. They are all so friendly and know their sh••! Normally when I go it’s no wait and sometimes the deals are great!

James Roberts

Honestly some of the best customer service I've experienced. Have a very smooth process for getting people in and out, and the pre-ordering system is great. Everybody there is very helpful and willing to answer any number of questions about the product. I wish more restaurants and bars had this kind of customer service.

Jorden Doubledee

The guys there were super nice and helpful. They have a lot of display cases so you can look around at things. Very spacious and clean. Just be careful if you're a girl walking there. The parking lot is across the street further down.

Matthew Bever

Clean, beautiful facility with lovely displays. I was in and out quickly, all the staff assisting me were friendly. Pricing is consistent with most of the other Columbus places, but the experience alone is worth coming in for, and if you know what you want just call it in and make the trip even quicker.

Ami Lisk

Prices are a little higher & sales are few but you shouldn't have to wait very long. Today was my first visit and they had a fabulous selection of products. parking is not beside the building , so be prepared to walk a very short distance. I will visit again but only when I have extra money to spend. The ATM cost $3

Larry Edwards

Hands down, the best dispensary in central Ohio! The products are top notch! Unbeatable, quality! The place is spotless, and welcoming, and the staff are absolutely unbelievable! They are knowledgeable, professional, and always, friendly!

Ally

I honestly hesitated to review the Botanist because it's my favorite dispensary and it feels like a hidden gem. I have been going regularly for several months and have never had to wait to be assisted. The prices are reasonable, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and it's always a very quick process. Even if you don't order ahead it takes a maximum of 10 minutes to get checked in, order, and receive your product if you know what you are looking for. Ordering ahead makes it that much faster, maybe 5 minutes tops? They are always adding new products and have a wide variety of options for every budget and preferred consumption method. Also they occasionally do fundraising drives, encouraging patients to donate their change to their chosen charitable organization. They recently did this for cancer research. A great dispensary with a great staff.

Su

Great experience overall! This was my first time ever in a dispensary! I was super nervous, the staff help me over come the nervousness an find information on what I like and dislike so I could navigate to the best treatment options for me! Highly recommend 👌 👍 …

E Grant

I just wish an 8th in Ohio was 3.5 not 2.83.... Great flower but horrendous prices on Vape cartridges

Russ Ingram

Great customer service the facility was awesome I mean I felt like a kid in a candy store literally and it was like so high-end their products are awesome and I can't wait to go back imma try to not go back in the shape that I was in cuz those poor people they might have been laughing but on the inside they was probably like hey bro come on I'm trying to get my medicine too

Kate Meece

Incredible! 15% off of 10 items is just what I needed to nest myself in my home for at least the next month. I called my order ahead and it was ready when I got there. Very quick. Very easy. Very safe. Go get the peppermints before they are gone. :) EDIT: 15% off of 10 is TODAY ONLY (until the end of March) but there are deals consistently!

Bryan Cooke

I couldn't recommend this dispensary more. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The dispensary is clean and has a welcoming environment. Check them out!

Kristi Hatfield

My mother has pancreatic cancer and they were very helpful to her and I until my caregiver status was approved. HIGHLY Recommend them.

Melissa MARTEL

I first showed up October _2020 One month after my second open ❤️ surgery. Such a courteous staff. From the front to the back. Take it from me, ask questions! They're there to help everyday people, like you and I. Very very smart peeps That said, I keep going back. For more knowledge and a better way of life all around. Order online* Quick in and out. Big shot out to the staff and product selection.

getsig

I have been to every place in Columbus and they are by FAR the best! Actually I don't think any other location even comes close. Great staff, fantastic product selection, great prices and I was in and out pretty quick. They also offer a 25% discount to veterans. They are absolutely on par with stores in Colorado. This is the place for me.....

Sebastian

As a new medical marijuana patient. The folks at The Botanist. Made my first legal purchase as easy at it gets. The staff are equally knowledgeable as they are friendly. I spent less than half hour there. The Botanist located in Columbus has a modern architecture. Easy parking, and relatively convenient location. Only gripe I have is with the ATM, and it's limited tender amounts, and fee. However, that not going to stop me from going there.

Andrew Shires (Andy)

The Botanist is, simply put, the best place to get medicine dispensed in the area. After visiting a couple different places when I was new to the program, I landed at The Botanist - and there I have stayed!! There are a multitude of reasons for this - the immaculate atmosphere, the reasonable prices, the close proximity to downtown - but the SINGLE BIGGEST reason is the employees. These budtenders are some of the most compassionate, enthusiastic cannabis advocates I have ever come across (and I’ve met a few!) and they really genuinely care about their patients. Every single Dispensary Agent I’ve had the pleasure of talking to there so far has been immensely helpful, but none more so than Andrea G!! I had the blessing of having my consult with her during my initial visit, and my god I have never felt more seen! She really took the time to educate me, and answer every single question I had (which was a lot, she’s seriously so knowledgeable!! and kind!) and then some! She also had some awesome recommendations which I am still so grateful for. The Botanist is seriously my go-to place now. I can definitely see myself going there a lot in the future!! :-)

Alisa Anne

Great place! Streamlined and very efficient, fantastic light, airy, and modern decor. SW feel. Pleasant, quick, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable staff, wide array of products at good prices. Usually a line so plan on being there at least 30 minutes, which can be somewhat reduced with order ahead.

Christine Couts

My experience with Tyler Bergandi was excellent. His disposition is friendly, understanding and very professional. He is very knowledgeable about all of the products and was very helpful in teaching me the differences between products. I'm still pretty new to all of this so I will continue to learn, but I will definately request to speak with him again if I have questions and anyone I would refer to The Botanist I would highly recommend that they speak with Taylor.

Georgette Peele

These long outdoor waits in the heat, the rain, and everything else have to stop. Can they make people do order ahead so everyone else can be safe from the climate? No awnings, just a pergola with nothing on it.

Jennifer Boehm

11 people allowed in main floor, I think only 3-5 in waiting. Great revolving strains, clean and it's pretty. Busy everytime I'm there so staff not super nice or anything. Have had to wait in the cold to just get in the waiting area. Very small private lot so you might have to find parking. Don't come in until your order is ready text received because it doesn't seem to get your stuff earlier. If you dont pre-order, you'll wait to put your order in then have to wait for it to be delivered to window. So pre-order of you can!

Casey Perrotta

To be fair this is the only dispensary I’ve been to, but when I ask people which dispensary they go to and like the best, this is/was it. Every time. I’ve had nothing but awesome customer service (they know their stuff!) and understanding here and always walk away with new info and awesome products. Beautiful store, beautiful people. ❤️

Trent Starr

While none of the dispensaries are run perfectly in Columbus, I consider The Botanist to be the best one. They always have wonderful customer service, orders are filled in a very reasonable amount of time, consistently, many times they seem to have batches of the same strains as other dispensaries that are slightly better quality than the others. There always seems to be somewhere close to park, and I've only had to wait longer than 30 minutes less than 5 times out of a hundred or so, which is a much lower rate than the other Columbus dispensaries. All in all, if you need the products they sell and are in Columbus, be sure to make this the first place you check.

Wes Hall

The botinist is the main dispensary I use. I live in Powell so I'm kinda right in the noth side of Columbus and I've been to all the ones close to me and I prefer the botinist the most. The staff are awesome and actually remember who you are when you come back. Its not the closest one to me but I definitely prefer it to the rest. After you start to go a lot you almost feel like family.

Greg D

Best dispensary I’ve been to in Columbus! You can get in and out quick if you know what you want, but they’ll take the time to answer any questions you might have and are happy to help guide you to what will work best for you. Everyone on staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the facility is always clean and well-maintained. This is the place to go!

Lacey Fenner

What a beautiful place! I could just hang out all day looking at the plants on the wall and the jars in the display case. Very impressive! Everyone was very polite, the prices were decent, they had everything I wanted in stock, and I got a really cool pen!

Jessica Shinoskie

Once I found where to park everything was great! It’s a really cool place and set up. The building felt safe and professional. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. Since it was my first time I got the grand tour. I love that they have a pharmacist there and medical/pharmacy students from OSU. They seem to really care about the science behind everything and want feedback from patients about what strains are working for what ailments for them. It was a great experience and I will def be back!

Chris Vancalbergh

As this is my 1st time venturing into the world of Cannabis I found the people I interacted with to be very professional, knowledge and friendly. Since I knew nothing the woman who worked with me took time to explain the various products and suggested usage guidelines. Parking was available but limited. Overall I found the interior to be well organized and very clean. I am not sure what more a customer would like.

Wango Tango

The staff is awesome and knowledgeable. Very friendly and kind. Selection is one of the best and the prices are fair for the area. Location is easy, just make sure to park on the side in their designated Free Parking area. Always come back time after time and they are one of the only places to have "Deals" Major + for me

Olivia Friend

The manager has taken extra time during several of my visits to get to know my son and I in order to assist us with our purchases. He not only listens to our needs medically but also recommends product based on our budget. Recently the customer appreciation discount was a great incentive for trying new products. He asked for feedback about our experience with this location and actively listened to both complimentary information and constructive criticism. This dispensary genuinely wants to best serve the medical marijuana consumer population in the best way possible.

Michael Roush

Every visit has been great. Super nice staff. Beautiful, clean building inside and out.

Kolton Nay

Certainly the best dispensary in Columbus. The process for getting in is pretty weird, so if it's your first time, just go with the flow and plan to be there for about an hour. Once you get past the lobby and into the actual dispensary area, it's absolutely gorgeous. It's kind of like the Apple Store of cannabis products. Everyone there is extremely professional. They have a daily menu you can check out while you're there or online before hand. When you get called up to make your order, the pharmacists are patient with you and will help you get the right product for whatever your diagnoses is. Just ask questions and be ready to learn. And the cherry on top is the prices are fantastic. Will definitely be coming back as soon as my supply runs out. Note: Parking is hit or miss. There are a few metered spots across the street that I recommend. Note 2: Try to go during low traffic times (i.e. not on a Friday after work). The line to get in can be absurdly long because of the Covid restrictions only allowing about 15 people at a time.

Andrew Sisson

Awesome dispensary in Columbus. I’m a new medicinal card holder and this was my first experience with a dispensary. It was super professional and everyone was so nice and helpful. I told them what I needed it for and they knew exactly what strain to get me. Not to mention you feel like you’re in the future when you go into the building it’s super well decorated and kept very nice. Definitely the dispensary I will be using.

JT Barker

Melissa E their sales rep is amazing. I saw her at the Columbia care location in Dayton a few months back & she's kind, courteous & very responsive to my requst to get more of their products in specific that I use regularly stocked at my local Columbia Care in Monroe. A great company Gteenleaf ( The Botanist) is my ultimate favorite for my medical cannibis needs.

allan kocher

Parking is interesting. Beautiful shop. Safe, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Tried an under the tongue drop by the businesses namesake and it has been phenomenal for pain, mood, and a little burst of energy with your coffee.

Kenna Battles

The staff is always pleasant and helpful. Willing to to that extra mile to help you understand everything you need to know about what you are purchasing. They were a big help to me because I was completely lost. Great, clean, and secure place. 🙃 …

Jeremiah Harrison

Staff is friendly and make great recommendations. Prices are great as well. The wait is the only reason this isn't home yet.

larry thomas

There’s literally no point in ordering ahead. You order ahead, get there and will still wait easily over 30-45 mins to get a pre-packaged product. I still have not figured out why that takes so long. You’re better off doing a sprint from your car at 9:55am to stand in line for 25 mins in the morning with no order ahead..you will still get out in the same amount of time. High prices and the staff could tighten up. They’ll say they’re short staffed but’ll have the same amount of people from last visit order picking, might I say again, pre-packaged products. Catch my drift?

Amber Arthur - Baiden

Super friendly staff, great atmosphere and clean comfy seating while you wait

Alexander Ward

A little too expensive and a little too "Instagram" feeling. But otherwise good. I love their own branded products. Edit 3/15/22: Yeah still the same place but now no masks required. Not a comment on that fact, just so you know either way.

victoria murphy

Parking is the only complaint. My first time and it was easy and I got the medicine I needed. Very helpful.

K “Ke” E

I visited this dispensary for the first time today. I was very impressed. All of the staff were very professional and courteous. I Also met the manager who went out of his way to greet all the clientele. As a veteran I appreciate that they give a discount. The parking was a little confusing but once I was inside they showed me where the complementary parking was located for next time. Make sure you check out their website before you go so you know where to park.

Jess gaming

Amazing staff. New patient wait time is around 10 min. Awesome atmosphere. They are an amazing company. Will be a repeat customer

Patty Black

The ultimate professionals. I have had my medical marijuana card for several years and will not go anywhere except The Botanist to buy it. My husband now goes there, too.

Ashley Stroh

The selection is great, but parking is not. Also I did an online order which was over my days but never got a call which was supposed to happen and instead I got held up at pickup. And then when I went to pickup my order they failed to call back so no one even knew I was here. Overall a very frustrating and unpleasant experience.

Michael Ritchie

Great Location. The bud tenders are very helpful and explain everything to you.

Tina Colborn

Very nice place and the staff was as well.

Jacqueline Wood

Nice selection but only went once after I ordered a specific item and was given something different. I didn't notice until i got home.When I called to speak with someone the lady was rude and blamed me for the fact that I got the wrong item. I won't be going back to that dispensary.

Dawn Abramo

Great customer service. Amazing products. I drive a little extra to come here as there is a dispensary closer to us, but it's so worth it. ❤️

William Gentry

Everyone there was extremely nice and helpful! They are cheaper than where I normally go and about the same distance away from my house so guess what I will be going from now on unless I just catch a sell somewhere else I have found a new dispensary..

Jayla

I always have a great experience here! The people are nice and the service is fast.

Penny S

Organized, quick, professional, and good with the info! I was going to Terrasana when I finally got too frustrated with their delays and inventory confusion. The Botanist was a great experience, from signing up to getting my stuff. The staff is on top of it with the info and I felt like they knew exactly what they were doing and they told me how much allotment I had left, which Terrasana never did. Parking is the only confusion, we went to two parking lots before just parking alongside the building in the AEP lot so I could run in. If you do this, have someone wait in the car for you because apparently you can get towed.

Tonya Mitchell

It's always a great experience going to the Botanist. The staff are extremely professional, warm and helpful. They go above and beyond for their patients, They have a gorgeous display floor and I have a special connection to this place of business as I used to live there oddly enough lol If you're ready to get better, this staff is committed to helping you get there. Great prices! I once found the prefilled vape pens for 15.00 dollars cheaper there than other places! In short, you will be pleasantly surprised!

Leah Piper

Friendly staff who are very knowledgeable and very helpful to the customers. Prefer them over any other dispensary.

Ian Kelly

Fine place, but sooooo slowwwwww.... 8 of us in here watching 2 tenders on staff explain everything under the sun to 2 patients for the last 10 minutes. Need to have a fast lane to pick up online orders..

Matt Brofford

Great staff. They have 20% off specials all of the time. Good product at a reasonable price. I go there often.

Melissa Stidams

Slowest moving dispensary in Columbus. Their check-in, order, and checkout process is convoluted. Ordering and then wandering around while they fulfill your order is inefficient. In addition, it doubles the touch points for patients who seek to limit contact with surfaces because covid. In addition, this often means coming within 6 feet of 2 or more employees during a transaction. This multiplies possible exposures and isn't very efficient. Edit: I still disagree with the multiple employee contact situation. However, I will say that in my last 3 trips the staff has been efficient AF. I would recommend this dispensary for their (usually large) selection of luster pods.

April Dawn Bentley

The Botanist is completely awesome. The staff were so friendly and answered all of my questions. They made me feel like all my questions were relevant and they asked questions too in order to find the best medicine for me. This will be the only dispensary I use in Columbus ☺

Wade

Great experience all around! 🙏 …

Kevin Nicol

I've now been to all of the dispensaries in the Columbus area and my official dispensary of choice is The Botanist. The place is clean and beautiful, the staff is kind and wonderful, and it's just an overall very well run, high-class operation. I'd recommend trying The Botanist if you have not tried them yet. Much more of a patient focused approach rather than a transaction based approach.

Mike L

I can't say enough good about this dispensary! My first impression was that this place actually cares about the customer, not easy to find with many businesses anymore. Arica has been my budtender twice and she is just awesome! Arica is knowledgeable and her customer service skills are great. Every staff memeber that I have communicated with has been excellent from the phone, front desk and manager. The interior is nice and inviting. I have not received great quality flower at some other dispensaries, but here I have purchased grade A flower and extracts. This dispensary knows how to treat the medical marijuana patients and I will be a loyal customer. The best dispensary in central Ohio!

The Botanist is the best dispensary I have been to in Ohio. The people who work there are amazing. Jared was extremely helpful today and very knowledgeable in explaining all the rules, etc. The decor is really pretty! So happy they finally opened in the Arena District!

Jay and Daniella Armstrong

Great client service, always extremely helpful! My favorite thing is that if you are unsure or have questions, the entire staff is extremely amazing at answering questions (and soothing newbie anxiety!)

Moving Shadow

I have gone to The Botanist for a few months now, and can honestly say every trip is fun, efficient, and organized. Every representative that works here that I have dealt with have been pleasant, but more importantly they are knowledgeable about their products! Rony, Jared, and the three other Botanists (sorry I don’t know ya’lls names! ☺️) answer all questions I have ever had. More importantly they never appear inconvenienced or as if they are in a rush to see you leave! Anyway, I could probably write a million more good words about this dispensary. Point is, it’s a well ran company with great products and great employees. If you need medicinal marijuana and want to get it in Columbus, this place is the best.

The Botanist Columbus is a great dispensary. Now that there are more choices of where to go, the little things really make a difference. The location is urban but parking is close. You are greeted at the locked front door by security who actually takes a moment to speak to you while welcoming you. The receptionist was equally as friendly and the check in process was efficient, both as a first timer and returning patient. The “budtender” quickly gauged how much assistance I was looking for and provided a menu folder. They were knowledgeable and interested in past purchases, as well, in order to communicate those experiences to other patients. They have a wide variety of products- especially sativas which are lacking at some other dispensaries. The prices are competitive for the market and they offer discounts, which helps. There are multiple people working and both visits I was in quickly and never felt rushed once inside. The vibe is relaxed and the space is large, open and beautifully decorated.

Chris Schmitter

Great Place To Shop, Friendly Staff That Always Willing To Help. I Do Wish They Tan More Sales Like Their Competitors Do.

Scott Russell

Omg. This place is the best dispensary I have been to in OH. Their service is top notch, their products are high quality, & their place has a chill like no other. The wait time alone is enough to get my $. In & out in less then 5 mins is amazing.

William Jones

Not going to comment on pricing, which is higher than out in the sticks, for example, for obvious reasons. The vibe is relaxed here, which might be due to time of day or location. I've been to all Columbus dispensaries now and this is the one I like the best. I can call and speak to someone about the number of days left or whatever. Stuff like that is what makes a dispensary stick out for me.

Jacklin Hearld

They were very nice and fast and I got out of there pretty quick so I'm happy with them I always like going there anyways

Timothy McGuire

Nice decor and good people. Usual wait out front, but not bad. OFF THE WALL, out of this world products! Try em, you all will come back! Bring your piggy bank...

John Hayes

I am a patient here and I can tell you they will take care of you!! Andy is a employee there that brings me back all the time. I look forward to this part of my day❤️

Nathan Taylor

It doesn't make sense to place an online order at noon and then pick a specific pick up time if they do not have the product ready and you have to wait 20 min to pick up the order. Other than that, it is usually a wonderfully friendly place.

Ashley Green

One of my top favorite dispensaries in Ohio hands down! Professional, informative, and kind, this dispensary makes you feel at home and with people who you can trust to help get your cannabis products.

Shaun Dimasso

Great place and experience, wish they had parking though.. that made it difficult and I ended up having to pay for parking due to their suggestion the access was closed when I went because of construction at the time..

jack lallathin
