The Best Dispensaries In Orleans

Now that all the costs have been displayed, let’s dive into the best weed dispensaries in Orleans.

1. The OZ Store

The OZ Store was the first Cannabis store that opened in Orleans, Ottawa. The Oz Store allows people to access the highest quality of locally-sourced cannabis based on products. They have established a clean and safe environment where anyone will feel comfortable when you walk into there dispensary. There electronic learning tools and knowledgeable staff will help guide you on various products and their effect on well-being.

They view themselves as guides to a rich History about Cannabis. The Cannabis plant has been grown since at least the 3rd millennium BCE. Evidence suggest that it was consumed at least 2,500 years ago in the Pamir Mountains, a mountain range in Central Asia at the junction of the Himalayas and the Tian Shan and Karakoram ranges.

Although subject to legal restrictions for much of the 20th century, Cannabis was legalized in Canada in 2018.

They recently opened up a second location Downtown. The values and knowledge from the weed dispensary in Orleans helped with the transition to the Centretown location. The team of professionals at the OZ store can answer any and all of your questions related to cannabis products – the different types of strains, flavours, and methods of consumption.

“ best staff. best prices in all of Ottawa (this is a fact, not simply opinion). quick and easy online ordering + delivery. the very first and original Orleans dispensary stocking high end gear as well as budget friendly stuff. truly a 5 star experience. management seems cool as hell and employees are extremely friendly and welcoming. love the oz store“

“This is a great place to buy flower. Most of the staff are helpful and friendly. If you are new to marijuana again like me (its been 12 years since I last smoke this stuff.) Make sure you talk to the right people there. Some people have more patience for it then others. As you learn you look less and less stupid and its not as awkward, I promise. All in all a great place, now that I found some great ppl there to help me.“

“Want the best prices in town? Want knowledgeable, engaged service? This is the spot!! Whether you are a well seasoned connoisseur or a newbie you can be assured that the staff are knowledgeable and take the time to make your experience! The space is bright and clean, but they also offer delivery! Delivery was swift, ( within 30mins!! ) and discreet. Anyone I have recommended the Oz Store to have had nothing but positive praise.”

A Google review from Calvin Gray via Google says:

“Chill store. The big guy sure knows his stuff and knows what works. He never fails me. He always has that great big smile and he remembers my favourites.His choices to try when I want a change are always right on. Sometimes it’s just nice to give then a shout out when you appreciate their help. Thanks Cody coming in this week to see what’s new.”

Another Google review from:

This location seems a bit sketchy based on the information we gathered. Not really sure how some of these Dispensaries can operate like this. There should be online requirements for a Weed Dispensary so they inform clients a bit of information/history on the Dispensary.

4. Inspired Cannabis CO. Orleans

Inspired Cannabis Co is a family-run business whose mission is to plant roots within the communities and support local businesses and families whenever possible.

They are a licensed Weed Dispensary retail company in the Orleans area. There first store opened in Courtenay, BC. As a licensed stores in the new legal market, they’re goal is to set a standard for Weed products in Canada.

When you walk into there store you can see that they did do lots of work on the architecture of the store. It is very well designed and leaves you wanting to visit this location for the atmosphere and vibe.

Customer Reviews

The Google Reviews are 4.9 Rating with 42 Reviews (June 2022)

A review from Andrew R. via Google says:

“Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Competitive prices, and a large selection of products.

Everything displayed well in the showroom as opposed to other vendors who have everything behind the counter and you’re forced to pick off a list of names on a scrolling digital menu.”

A review from N.Owens also via Google reads:

“Great service and great vibes. The decor was on point and just seemed super on brand. Love the orange/blue logo. Really stands out compared to all the other companies. Overall a really good experience. The staff were super knowledgeable and quick to help! 10/10 would recommend”

A review from Alex Al also via Google reads:

“Great location! Very conveniently located in a busy neighbourhood. The vibe of the store is really professional, well-lit and spread out enough that you don’t feel crowded. The staff was attentive and more importantly knew when to back off to let me browse. I had the opportunity to speak with a manager, who gave me some great advice on strains. She was eager to hear some feedback and I witnessed her taking notes, which made me feel very appreciated. Though not my local shop, I’ll certainly be back when in the area.”

5.  Hemisphere Weed Dispensary Chapel Hill South [Orleans]

Hemisphere Cannabis is a Weed Dispensary located in Orleans. It seems that it’s a fairly new Weed dispensary based on the lack of information we gathered. The inside of the Weed Dispensary is very elegantly designed with a stylish interior. It reminds me of the setting I would see at jewelry shops.

They have a wide range of Weed Products ranging from Bongs to Vapes to Flower. Based on Google reviews the prices for products at this location seemed more expensive than others. Purchasing products from the website seemed very complicated and was a bit overwhelming with all the Cannabis products they showed. How would I know which Weed products are best for me?

I think an ideal webshop would be to ask you questions about what you’d like to achieve when consuming weed products. I think the average Joe really does have a hard time navigating through all the different Cannabis products this site has to offer

Pros

Customer Reviews

They have a 3.8 Star Rating On Google with 17 reviews. (June 2022)

A five-star review from Alex via Google says:

“ Seemed a lot pricier than expected. But good, friendly, helpful staff. Staff is quick.”

“JGreat selection with friendly staff. Their prices are fair for the quality they provide. Other stores in the area can’t compete”

Denis F left a review via Google saying:

“I like in store purchasing rather the web site to complicated to me..staff eager to satisfy customers enjoy great products..”

Mundi left a review Via Google saying:

“The store said open online so i ordered weed as i need it for my sleeping disorder. I got the text saying it was ready for pick up but when i arrived the store was closed even though it was only 5pm”

In conclusion the Weed Dispensaries in Orleans seemed a bit different and more generic than lets say Westboro. I guess the vibe that Orleans offers is very different that other locations in Ottawa.

Most the staff seemed to know there Cannabis 101 when it came to answering our questions. We sent our team out to all these locations and based on the feedback we collected, overall the atmosphere about Weed is very well presented.

Some of the locations have more space than others and the staff seems more knowledgeable at certain locations. It feels like Orleans needs a new dispensary that is unique and creative. Most of them have Corporate looking over what is done and are told what the best stragety is to make money.

One thing we notice is the online shop on most of these Weed dispensaries in Orleans lacks functionality. It’s very difficult to choose from such a big selection of products and it’s hard to checkout. They need to make it simpler and more filtered based on your own preference/needs.
