    There's a new person named River who was very disrespectful and treated me with disdain, as if they were upset with me for serving me. They made me feel so uncomfortable that I preferred to hold back my urge to smoke that night and return the next day. I've happily visited the store for several years since it opened on Church St., and it's always been a wonderful experience with the people who work there. Unfortunately, last Friday wasn't the same with "River."

    When I visit Toronto, this is the only dispensary I visit. Not only are the staff professional and nice, they're knowledgeable about their products and are always available to give their recommendations without being too "sales-y". I've been coming here for at least three years now and prices have been consistent, product is always fresh, they have a large variety so you'll find what youre looking for. The extra stuff to pack your kit (grinder, paper, pokey stick things...) is very reasonably priced given this location. If your visiting Toronto, I HIGHLY recommend coming to Friendly Stranger.

    As I swore I’d never smoke ‘corporate weed’, here I am writing a review for a ‘corporate weed store’ Ha This team is great, but I want to shout out the kick ass team of women budtenders - Lissette, Liv and Paula. They are always so friendly, have turned me on to some amazing strains…I like old school weed, none of this put you in a coma for a week shit…and they steer me towards brands that have been 9/10 times on point! The store is dog friendly and even has done animal rescue item dives around Christmas.
