Boston, Massachusetts is known for the Boston Tea Party, quality colleges, sports championships, and most recently: cannabis businesses. Since the first Freedom Rally in 1989, the city has held a steady pace of advocacy and policy initiatives for everyone’s favorite plant. In 2006 voters decided to decriminalize small possession and eventually Massachusetts the legalized sale and purchase all together in 2016. Today, dispensaries are popping up on, seemingly, every corner throughout Boston proper and Greater Boston. We’ve put together The Genie’s Best Boston Dispensaries so you can begin enjoying all that this budding industry has to offer.
A note from The Genie: All dispensaries operate differently, we urge you to please call ahead for daily product availability and customer eligibility before planning a trip — tell them the Genie sent you!
