Since 1994, Friendly Stranger has been a champion of cannabis devoted to activism, community and culture. Friendly Stranger is more than a store. It’s a place for those seeking a positive cannabis environment that inspires unity, advocacy, and acceptance. Where others see customers, we see friends.
Since day one, we’ve been on the front lines of the fight to end cannabis prohibition. Making hemp products available to the public, seeking justice for those unfairly prosecuted and shining a light on a subject cast in shadow. We aimed our relentless and passionate activism toward a change that has finally come.
To this day, we continue to promote the environmental and economic benefits of all forms of cannabis while fostering a welcoming and open spirit. The soul of Friendly Stranger is a community brought together by a shared belief and one that grows with every new face that walks through our doors.
We want to connect Canadians through cannabis, to educate and inspire a community of togetherness, to befriend the world one stranger at a time.

10/10 service, I was politely greeted by Alex and from start to finish he was friendly and open to offering suggestions for what I was looking for. Alex had provided a depth of knowledge of the products available all while having a smile. Outstanding customer service!
Awesome little shop, one of the best, maybe THE best cannabis shop I've ever been to in Canada. The staff were very friendly, super knowledgeable. I walked in with zero idea what to buy, and walked out with a sack full of dank choices. Shoutout to Alex!
I visited the Plains Rd. location in Burlington, ON. They have consistently been ample with product. Not only that, their staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Julia helped me (she has before as well). She always greets me with a friendly, and easy assistance. Her customer service is top level as she really listened and solutioned for me based on our conversation. She was always attentive and made my shopping experience fun. I'm looking forward to shopping again.
I had such a fantastic experience at Friendly Stranger, all thanks to the incredible team – Alex, Julia, and Riley. From the moment I walked in, they were warm, welcoming, and genuinely hospitable.
What really stood out was how knowledgeable they all were. Whether it was product recommendations, usage tips, or helping me find exactly what I was looking for, their insights were spot-on. You can tell they're passionate about what they do and really care about creating a great customer experience.
If you're new or a regular, these three are the people you want to talk to. Super friendly, never pushy, and always happy to share their expertise. Big shoutout to Alex, Julia, and Riley – thanks for making every visit feel easy, informative, and chill!
Great selection and amazing staff. The name of this store is accurate. Genuinely friendly staff who are eager to help and will take their time to make sure you're happy.
I bought some goodies and realized later in the day that I forgot the $5 lighter I purchased. The next day I went by and there was someone else working. She gave me a new one without hesitation.
5/5 service and products – highly recommend a visit!
