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.

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.
I have to tell you that when I went into
Friendly Stranger on Church Street on Saturday August 15/2025 ,2 employees were both very nice and greeted me with a friendly hello.
Paula helped me, which was not easy LOL, as I don't buy often she was patient asked if she could help others and then back to me and suggested a product, actually several .The product Paula suggested was great and I was very pleased and she was helpful because I felt I was a bit of a pain as sometimes I don't know what to get , Paula was great !!!
I will come the next time I need some product as it is now on my file and I can be one those customers who can be in and out LOL!!
The store has a great variety of products and I haven't been dissatisfied not even once. Great quality-price and a super nice, friendly and knowledgeable staff, they will provide exactly what you need or looking for, even if you're not sure what to get.
My number one dispensary in town.
Five stars!
One of the best places to get some proper quality products without a doubt! The employees are super friendly and caring. Their knowledge and experience in cannabis helped me so much in choosing the accurate products for the right occasion. I definitely recommend taking a look at this store and enjoy the trip :)
