One day this store may realize most people looking to spend their money want to see the COAs online beforehand. Not drive somewhere and ask for them. No COA available online means go somewhere else that does.

This was my first visit to a dispensary and wasn’t really sure what to expect. I met Krystin and she took me through the store and explained all the different products with their different effects. She was a great saleswoman who knew the products, if she were any more bubbly I’d have to call her “Champagne “. Definitely will go back.

Store personnel were very friendly and helpful. Nikko went above and beyond helping me find the products I felt would be best for me. And this required him looking at other stores for me since Canabist didn’t carry what I was searching for. Great customer service!

I have been so pleasantly surprised by my visit Cannabist today. I was immediately blown away by the atmosphere and musical choice and then when my name was called I had the most pleasant experience with the sweet girl behind the counter! Not only was she super friendly, down to earth and had a welcoming personality , but her knowledge of the product selection was stellar! Congratulations on having such an awesome staff member and I do hope you know you are lucky to have her! Awesome customer service !

Today was my first time at Cannabist and it was great and Bryan is awesome.He was very nice and explained how they operate and the deals and everything. I couldnt ask for a better person to help me. People are so nice and I actually felt comfortable there not like other dispensaries that I won't name. If your looking for a dispensary that is very comfortable to be in and have great employees then go to Cannabist. You won't be disappointed and if you are then you will never be happy. I've been to all the local dispensaries and Cannabist is by far the best. I will be going there from now on and you should also.

This place is great. From the minute I walked in Bryan got me checked in and in the right direction. The menu was super easy to navigate on the huge screen. He informed me of a few deals they had running that provided me with more product then I originally would have got, and for $10 less. This place is top notch and a step ahead of the curve. This was my first visit and I can say with out a doub I will be back. From the environment to the product everything even the Security guard makes you feel welcome and comfortable. Thank you for a wonderful visit I will be back and big shout out to Bryan!

Finally! A dispensery with knowledgeable AND kind people 🥰 Never once have they made me feel like I'm annoying with my 5 million questions and they always make sure I have all of the understanding I am after before we even begin working on my order. Tyler, at the Bradenton shop, is incredible ❤️ I moved here from California a couple years ago and no one there could help me find the right strains for my medical issues. But THIS GUY knows his stuff and was able to break it down for me so that I could choose something based on what I needed medically. AND he can tolerate my shenanigans! I am beyond impressed. Everyone is super nice, the place is comfortable and secure and you can even get a credit line if you get approved! Not to mention their product is amazing! Thank you Cannabist and Tyler especially, for helping me feel better ❤️

Jean C.

From the first time I walked in I that they knew their business. Very knowledgeable about all products. The staff is amazing, friendly, and personable. The product is great.

The thc levels sucks. The quality is bad. I wouldn't recommend this place for flower use. Maybe pens. And other stuff. Took forever too.. definitely won't be in and out.

David D.
1640344718
Enpugh with the low thc flower. Anything under 20% is garbarge not medicine in which you are ripping the patient off!!!! Period!!!! 27 is the correct amount 800 to 1100 mg of thc per 8th is considered medicine. Anything less is recreational!!!!

New patient to Medical Marijuana, this was the first place reccomended to me by a friend who is also a patient. This was my first dispensary experience, and i was nervous going in not knowing what to expect.Let me start by saying this, the staff was amazingly helpful and really focused on helping you get the meds you need for your purpose.The quality of the meds is superb. In my opinion, the price might be a TOUCH high compared to other places, however you get what you pay for!If you go in, ask for Tyler, he was amazing, and was very helpful and answered my many questions!I will be returning here for sure!

Columbia Care in Bradenton is an awesome dispensary in Florida especially when Breea is working; as her knowledge of the products, superb customer service, and outstanding team work elates me and makes me feel right at home.. I am happy she knows each strain of flower especially for my therapeutic and medicinal needs. I definitely recommend Columbia Care to all patients as their flower is also amazing!!

Friendly engaging staff with an enthusiasm for their work. Everyone here was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about their products. I came here knowing what I could spend, and sometimes that's a hard constraint. However when Julie and I discussed this she gave me the most genuinely considerate customer care I have experienced in any dispensary to date. I will be returning, and I think, no I know I will be stopping by here as my first choice.

Amanda S.
1633547762
This was my first time going to Columbia Care due to my old TRU friend being out of stock all the time. Taylor was the budtender who helped me. She was very knowledgeable and led me in the right direction. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new products. I don't think I could have asked for better. My only regret was that I found them sooner because not only would I have had better medicine, but I would have saved money as well. 💯❤️☺️

Phenomenal Staff, Florida's Largest Product Selection/Assortment and they will soon be known as Cannabist soon delivering A Higher Experience!! Knowledge that goes above and beyond with amazing customer service/interactions make them stand out from the competition. A true 1 stop shop for your cannabis needs and the knowledge around how and why!If they could resolve the CFA drive thru, the location would be perfect.

My first Despensary I ever went to and it was completely fantastic because of an employee named Tyler. First thing I notice is that how easy it was read the menu and find exactly what you want. Second was how incredibly helpful the salesman Tyler was. I bought a bunch of distillate syringes and cartridges. Tyler gave me some great advice on how to inhale the distillate and even gave me a blunt syringe tip for free to make it easier to use the syringe. He really went out of his way to make my experience great and deserves recognition. Columbia care bradenton is going to be my only despensary from now on.

Laura B.
1616006052
Columbia Care is very knowledgeable. It was a pleasure being there for the first time. The young lady taking care of us was a pleasure to be with and she guided us for our needs. The atmosphere was not only spotless but very professional looking. We felt very safe seeing it not open to the public. We will be back!

I've been doing the dispensary thing for a while now, this was the least stressful I've had so far. Cassie was incredibly helpful, took her time getting me informed with all the specials and everything they had to offer. Clean, friendly, and quick not like sitting at a trulieve waiting your turn to see the dean. I'll definitely be back.

This was, by far, the BEST dispensary experience that I've ever had! Dana was incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and DEFINITELY the best budtender that I've met thus far. Lastly, and equally as important, their flower, prerolls, concentrates, and kief pucks are simply fabulous!

Thomas B.
1611777694
Some great prices on high quality cannabis flower. I have 3 strains that I get there when available, and they often have nice discount events. Potency varies with season a bit but that seemsto be an issue to some degree for most of the other dispensaries.

This is the dispensary you are looking for - I hesitate to post as this is like my secret spot 🤫Every single visit and staff interaction (including front desk - this is IMPORTANT) between this location and Sarasota has been really fantastic. Which raises the bar pretttty high for subsequent trips since it's just a dispensary - not a theme park.The design language inside is modern and minimal but still warm and inviting - if Apple had a dispensary, it would look like this 😂It's not just lip service - the quality of flower puts them head and shoulders above the rest. It's not a B or C tier, it's A+ which keeps myself, and all the other reviewers here coming back for more.Do yourself a favor and stop shopping at the Walmart of Weed dispensaries that litter this state with their awful ordering system, continuous cancelled orders ("uhh we sold out before your order was picked"), tiny parking lots and cramped waiting rooms. - You know who you are... "T" that shall remain nameless.Check the photos, peep the quality, then jump in the hooptie and get down to your local CC asap... Just don't buy em out, leave some for the rest of us.*Not a paid advertisment - just a happy patient*

I’ve been to every dispensary in Florida and this is by far my favorite place. The Bradenton location has some of the nicest people and the best customer service. Everyone is extremely hospitable and they help you make the best choice every time. I was helped by Tymia and AGM-Maggie multiple times and every time I’m more impressed by their helpfulness and care for the customer. 10/10

Wow what an AMAZING Dispensary! The entire look and feel is a very professional elegant show room. You have one of the best in the business DANA! Dana is a complete rock star. She is always happy and helpful. Glad she is there we will see you soon. Take care thank you!

Dylan S.

Absolute great experience. Customer service is amazing and rep Dana really helped take care of me and was super informative. Amazing flower. Probably best in town in my opinion. Smell is amazing. Taste is wonderful and effects are great! All flower was cured to perfection. Including the cbd flower. Not to moist not to dry just right with no earthy tones at all just all around great products! Would recommend to anyone.

Columbia Care has an inviting and relaxing atmosphere you can't help but love when you walk in. No cramped spaces or disingenuous backrooms that make you feel rushed. The staff and bud tenders are knowledgeable, helpful and show genuine concern for you as a customer. Really nice people!! Who doesn't like that? The best part is the feeling you get when the people you're talking to are educated and give you the opportunity to learn, rather than being shuffled in and out like a number.I can only speak for their flower, but is certainly superior to other MMTCs. You get nicely manicured, good sized buds that are both impressive in appearance and effects. The potency seems to be consistently higher than other MMTCs. No disappointing surprises when you open up. Everything is good size rather than minis when you were expecting full price product. They had several strain varieties to choose from, both large buds and popcorn size. All their selections are priced reasonable and have several options for any budget big or small.Columbia Care is definitely a step above their competitor's game.

Jeremiah C.

This is the newest dispensary location in Bradenton. Extremely clean, with a health food store/spa vibe. There is a lot of space so you'll never get into contact (aka 6 feet rule)with anyone during covid-19 unlike the other smaller dispensaries around. You will be served the moment you in get in. No waiting. Extremely nice and professional. Probably not the best place to find variety of bud since they only have two strains currently, but the strains they do have are affordable and A grade dank. I imagine it is because of the pandemic that they are so low on their selection.

The popcorn mint chip flower is fantastic. The staff is also extremely helpful and knowledgeable (shout out to Tymia). Plus there is tons of discounts.
