Excellent selection, great quality products, and the best prices anywhere in the state! I joke that these guys are the Walmart of dispensaries, but all the other boutiquey kind of shops charge outrageous prices, while these guys have a great range of prices and quality from as low as $59 and ounce to $149 an ounce.…

Excellent selection, great quality products, and the best prices anywhere in the state! I joke that these guys are the Walmart of dispensaries, but all the other boutiquey kind of shops charge outrageous prices, while these guys have a great range of prices and quality from as low as $59 and ounce to $149 an ounce. The really high test top shelf stuff is only $149 at most for an ounce! You wont find these prices at any other snobby boutique type stores. Never been dissapointed with Canabis Haven! Friendly staff too! Some of the boutique shops and dispensaries I have been in have a snobby standoffish vibe, but not these guys. Great dispensary!
