The music is way too loud for folks with sound sensitivity. Especially for medical patients being forced to wait in a hot claustrophobic tiny room. Get some ventilation in there. And not the first time this has happened to me here at this location.

I've been going to The Botanist almost since they opened. The staff are always helpful, kind and go out of their way to make the customer comfortable with their decisions. The products are the best Connecticut has to offer and even if they run out of something they quickly refill. I've always left The Botanist as a happy customer.

This is a well run establishment and these are very good people. I've gone in there a lot and I've always felt welcomed and comfortable. Now I'm a delivery customer but the drivers are the nicest people too. Tom, I hope you're out there. You're awesome. Rest of staff who are working behind the scenes, you've always done me a solid and I appreciate the work you do.

Stopped going here. The selection has been lacking but even worse are the prices. CT prices are insanely high then add taxes even worse. Not to mention there are hardly ever sales. If you can get to any in RI or MA do it. Always 15 to 20 percent off sales, always plenty of choices and way cheaper. Worth the drive to pay less than half of what you'd pay in CT and you get double the product.CT: 1/4 + .5 cart= $170!MA/RI: 1/4 + .5 cart + 15/20% off= $50Which means you can buy more product out of state and make LESS trips to a dispensary.We need to start going out of state if possible so these places in CT can drop their insane prices.

Nice, organized shop. Associates are super friendly and often remember repeat customers. They also tend to be a few dollars cheaper than some others in the area. Selection is pretty good, but also sometimes is low for certain items (but i notice it's usually similar for all the shops in the area). Def one of my go to stops!

My absolute go-to spot. Was introduced to this place by a co-worker of mine who recommended it when looking for a recreational dispensary after everything went legal. Staff here is always friendly and fantastic. You always feel welcomed when you arrive here. Even when it is incredibly busy they are very efficient at getting customers served quickly. Staff always seems willing to help anyone that has any questions about purchases and is always patient when explaining things. Absolutely one of the best spots in the area for recreational.

Nice place, very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Absolutely the worst inventory in CT. Nothing is ever in stock. I’m going to have to pull my card and move it 50 miles down the road because it’s clear we’re catering to the casinos here.When you have 28 half gram carts for sale and 3 gram carts, the more economical option, then you are selling primarily to recreational. When of those 3 gram carts not one is a sativa, it’s clear no one is paying actual attention. Let’s not even talk about finding live resin or live rosin.The store 50 miles down the road can maintain an inventory almost a hundred times larger and consistently, you start looking at cars that get better gas.

Fast service with a smile. I’ve never had to wait longer than 10 minutes to be served, and, always lots of parking. I’d like the thank the entire Botanist staff for their fun , friendly attitude , and especially, Paula, for the vast array of knowledge that is always so helpful!!!

Staff is great. Available flower sizes above an 1/8 are scarce to come by. Few full oz options. And THC content has nosedived. They are fully catering to recreational. Medical was much better supported in the past.

I been going here for a little while. I'm giving a 3 because I like some of your products. But some of yall workers are dull. Only reason yall keep my steady business is because one of my best friends works here and so does another good friend of mine. Back of the house is stacked. Front of the house is not. Marijuana makes people friendly. Spark more conversations and get people off they phones.

I would highly recommend. I went here after a couple of foul experiences at Fine Fettle over in Willimantic. The employees over there are skimping buds out of their customers' containers. Breaking the seals to CTPharma containers in hopes that you think it comes off with the lid. Imagine that kind of sad, really. Well, you won't get that over at The Botanist. You can trust them to have the integrity to not leave you with short product. It's clear which company is more professional. Thankfully there is another dispensary I can trust.

Since going to recreational and putting medical patients second, new staff has no idea what they are doing. I am a day 1 patient. Last time I checked in, I was questioned about having my caregivers card with me. I don’t carry my caregivers card. Why do I need that? Thankfully, a day 1 employee who was familiar with me let her know it was not needed. Once at the counter, employees are bickering and just not as pleasant as when this place first opened. The used to ask me about available points, available deals. Now I am lucky to get my order correct. Really has gone down hill for medical patients.

Amazing place, good selection. Will be a 3/5 star until they allow me to tip.A month later and still can't tip. May think about going elsewhere. This is the only spot that I go to that does not allow it. Every time I go, the people helping customers are SLAMMED, with the one who helped me the other day was still there 30 min after her shift was supposed to be over. Let us say "thanks". Never require it, but at least allow it.

Very nice dispensary. Clean and well run. I have to say they have the process down to an art. I had a questionable experience my last pick up with an older female employee who was hyper fixated about not letting me at the counter with my partner when we paid but I can’t let one stinky apple ruin it for the hole joint (see what I did there?).

Only giving two stars because the majority of staff is wonderful however if you smoke regularly this tree is trash. Made me throw up, I’ve had betters mids. I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt that it’s just this grower or because CT just legalized but still. Don’t waste your money. (My opinion for adult use maybe medical use is better)

I usually have a pleasant experience here. But today I checked out with Brittany (wears a headband) she was very rude and unhelpful and rushed me out when she didn’t want to answer my question about points (maybe she didn’t know) I had to go to the front desk and ask a very nice gentleman to help me & he was awesome. Brittany should be more upbeat and have a smile on her face ready to help any customer who needs help. I felt uncomfortable but was turned around very quickly when I asked a different worker that was ready to help. Overall a great place though.

This place used to be awesome prior to adult use. The prices keep climbing for medical use and the few reserved parking spots for medical patients are no where near enough. You also used to be able to get deals on an oz. at a time. Beginning the process of finding somewhere else. I would give one star but the staff are amazing.Editing my review down to one star after todays disastrous visit. The rec users are parking in medical patient spots and no one enforces anything. Not one thing I wanted that showed available online was there. Sat in the medical waiting room while person after person from the rec line went in. 20 minute wait with three med people in front of me. Heavy set lady letting people in was rude. Did not recognize one familiar face from before working there. The person waiting on me seemed like they could care less I was there. Pretty sure they hired all new staff for less money and got rid of the really nice folks that worked there. Looking for a place more convenient to go to. I’ve literally never been so mad leaving there.

I have frequented this dispensary for the past 2 yrs & I've been greeted by the same friendly faces!! I love the staff & atmosphere! They make it a fun interactive experience holding different events each month. The majority of my transactions are handled by Olga the OG! She always keeps me in the know about their products & upcoming events! She is super friendly, knowledgeable, helpful & always suggests new products when I want to switch up my order! The staff is all so friendly & accommodating. The VIP area is a nice perk now that they've opened up to recreational - there is minimal wait time despite the influx in customers. Highly recommended!

50 to 60 bucks is the going price for an eighth in CT right now but if I'm paying that price I don't expect fluffy nugs that aren't even dried properly. I can't even get this stuff through my grinder. For now I'll continue to make the long drive to Rise in Branford where you at least get quality weed for the exorbitant price. I'll check back on the Botanist in a few months and hope they get it together.

I’ve always had a great experience here starting I open their doors! Most days as soon as I would be buzzed in the door someone at the desk would immediately greet me. Kaleigh is one of the wonderful girls that would greet you. She treats me as a acquaintance or are friend, not just a customer! Always going above and beyond for me and the other patients! She’s super pleasant and just has the friendly/warming demeanor about her. She made my renewal process a breeze, when normally I stress about the slightest things. She’s a great patient advocate and is always lending a helping hand making sure any of my needs are met and doing it beyond my expectations!

I've been a client with them for 5 years. Everyone here is so friendly and helpful. They are always willing to answer any questions I may have or explain a product to me. This week I had ordered something medical and something recreational and they made it fast and efficient. The zoom meetings are also very informative. When you can handle anything thrown at you, such as a pandemic, as well as they did you can count on The Montville Botanist for any of your specific needs.

I have been coming here since they opened (down the street from where they are now and were called Thames valley.) This is the best dispensary, hands down. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly! They always have an amazing selection of products! There is a dispensary a little closer to where I live, but I still choose to go to the Botanist in Montville! Everyone that works there is so wonderful and the product selection, you just can’t beat!Thank you all for being the best at the Botanist! 😍

Everytime I go to The Botanist I have a great experience. As soon as I walked in the building and to the check-in counter I was met with a smile and a happy hello. The waiting area was clean, comfortable and there were paper product lists easily accessible so I knew what I wanted before I placed my order and when I did everything went smoothly and efficiently.

Welcoming as soon as you enter. Quick/in and out service. Friendly workers. A lot of variety. No complaints.
I only got my medical card a few months ago so I'm still new to navigating the medical use system.I love that the botanist has so many events each month to earn extra loyalty points.And they gather donations for causes that I support.I personally will be participating this month in the donation drive for pet supplies. The humane society does good work finding those wonderful fur babies furever homes.I will continue to go to the botanist. I love it there.

I personally have mixed feelings. They were great for little gifts like t-shirts, grinders, and discounts. I feel there is a complete lack in actual care for the patient. I spoke to the pharmacist twice and each time felt I was inconveniencing things. To top the treatment she also didn't have the answers I was looking for. I also feel there products are inferior products (but that's my opinion on all operating facilities right now. Not their fault!). I was directed to my doctor, then to my pharmacist then, back to my doctor. Which neither one seemed they wanted to be bothered with my questions anyway. If not them then who? So all and all, I didn't have the great experience here.

Friendly and accommodating staff. Work hard long hours to provide necessary medicine.------03/01/22 edit-----Im glad to be back and it's so nice to see all the same friendly faces from when y'all were Thames valley.Not gunna cap, I was in the wrong for dropping a sour review when y'alls were held up with Covid. That was salty af on my end and I really apologize. We started off "all in this together" and strayed so far from that... :|In the year I was switched elsewhere I learned the HARD WAY that picking up ur cannabis meds from your pharmacy team fam it's really important to have REAL support.There's healthcare "monsters" and there's "health care heros"Since y'als r the same people, I can say for sure that u represent health care heroism. It's so important to have real support and friendly fam you can count on and come to with a need for help and get the same level of care they'd treat their own family too!5.5 out of five stars 😉

So two months ago I gave this place five stars but with how rude new management is I’m changing it to a one star, most of the workers are lovely, but with the new management it feels unprofessional and honestly kinda hostile. They also basically pay you for good reviews by offering you a discount for any 5 star reviews, and they don’t reinforce their mask requirements, which is extremely dangerous. Sad to go but I’m not going to support a place that doesn’t treat all of their costumers with basic respect and decency, and disregards general health standards.

I really love this place. Everyone that works there are very helpful & will answer any questions you have. I'm really happy I got my card& chose Thames Valley. Their smoke shop has some really cool stuff also& for a reasonable prices.
The staff at Thames valley is amazing! I have been a patient for three years and from day one I was made to feel comfortable by everyone. All of my questions are always answered with a smile. I am especially grateful for thier handling of the covid 19 pandemic. They kept things going as smoothly as possible under uncertain times. The curbside pickup they made available for high risk patients has helped so much with anxiety and fear. I highly recommend Thames Valley!Kellie Smart

Thames Valley Relief has been "my" dispensary for almost 2 years now, and I cannot say enough about how wonderful this place is. The staff are always professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly and courteous. They are willing to help and take time with you to answer any questions you have, making you feel comfortable and at ease. The prices are good, they have a wide selection of products, and the online ordering system is easy and convenient. They send timely emails with the most up to date and informative info on everything. They also have an amazing program when you meet income guidelines that gives you product discounts, which is a lifesaver for me. They have the patient in mind with everything they do. And with the smoke shop next door it's perfect! Thames Valley Relief is an essential business in this area for patients, and is just as important and necessary as any other pharmacy for prescriptions for your health. Sorry this is long, but I just love them!

I have been a medical marijuana user since almost the start of the program here in Connecticut. I love this dispensary because the staff is extremely helpful, always nice, and they are sensitive to what we need, as patients. I got an email from CTPharma about "everything bagel flavored seasoning" (infused with THC). Then, I checked the online menu, and Thames Valley had it!!! I get teabags, tinctures, distillate, shatter, and sometimes lovely flower there, and every product has been excellent, without exception. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a cannabis newbie, there is someone at Thames Valley who can help you figure out what to take for your situation. There's also a new check-in system that starts soon, and I'm hopeful that it will be an even better system than before. That said, I haven't waited very long since the middle of the pandemic, when staff was low. I love the points system, too! I feel very appreciated at my dispensary. My life is better with Thames Valley Alternative Relief!

The facility is always clean and they have made sure that everyone is safe during these unprecedented times. A giant thank you to Laurie and her staff!!

I’ve been going to Thames Valley since they opened. They are all great people, kind and very helpful. You feel like one of the “family” there. They work hard for us to make us all feel welcome even during this COVID-19 epidemic. They morphed their operations to align with the CDC guidelines. Patience’s is definitely a virtue when dealing with the changes in the operation.

Fantastic service. They really know what they are talking about and can point you to the right thing. I really love their reward system. Product can be expensive like any other dispensary, but the reward system makes you feel a bit better dropping the dime.I really appreciate that they have every form of the good stuff you could ask for, from concentrates to edibles and flower of course. Very clean and friendly.

Dianne and Hillary are the best, but at the same time their ENTIRE team is nothing but equally as awesome.I wont bother switching to Groton's dispensary. Ive come to fully respect and appreciate the service they provide me as a patient, and I feel like my needs and concerns are addressed properly when I have a question about a particular strain.5 out of 5 stars.Thank you for what you guys do in these difficult times during the virus. Thames Valley provides GOD'S medicine, and they do it well ???? ????

I have been a patient with Thames for a while now and absolutely LOVE the staff and how personal they get with everyone. Hundreds of people and somehow they remember every face. They'll guide you every step so 1) you have full knowledge of what your doing/getting, and 2) because it's just nice being social. I have visited other Dispensaries and so far no one compares to the service provided by staff. If you're new or looking for better treatment, I fully recommend this specific location!!!!
I have been an avid customer for about 4 years with Thames Valley Relief, the staff is always courteous, smiling, and so friendly! The ladies running the back room are busy bees! And extremely efficient! I have never had any issues whatsoever. I honestly love this company & their employees. They are extremely professional & very helpful in every aspect concerning the Medical Marijuana Program. HIGHLY recommended.

The facility is great, the staff is absolutely fantastic and super friendly. They have a nice selection of medicinal cannabis products and are very helpful when it comes to anything you need to know about what you're getting. They've been handling the situation with covid very well as well.

The people here are super friendly and helpful. We walked in pretty blind and naive and they patiently sat with us and explained everything we needed to know. No judgement or ridicule, just honest down to earth explanations and help.

I have been a patient for about a year now and I've never had a bad experience. The staff is super friendly and very knowledgeable. I can see by the way the staff interacts with the other patients they care. I would recommend this location to anyone based on its people, the amazing product is just a added bonus.

    The music is way too loud for folks with sound sensitivity. Especially for medical patients being forced to wait in a hot claustrophobic tiny room. Get some ventilation in there. And not the first time this has happened to me here at this location.

    I've been going to The Botanist almost since they opened. The staff are always helpful, kind and go out of their way to make the customer comfortable with their decisions. The products are the best Connecticut has to offer and even if they run out of something they quickly refill. I've always left The Botanist as a happy customer.

    This is a well run establishment and these are very good people. I've gone in there a lot and I've always felt welcomed and comfortable. Now I'm a delivery customer but the drivers are the nicest people too. Tom, I hope you're out there. You're awesome. Rest of staff who are working behind the scenes, you've always done me a solid and I appreciate the work you do.

    Stopped going here. The selection has been lacking but even worse are the prices. CT prices are insanely high then add taxes even worse. Not to mention there are hardly ever sales. If you can get to any in RI or MA do it. Always 15 to 20 percent off sales, always plenty of choices and way cheaper. Worth the drive to pay less than half of what you'd pay in CT and you get double the product.CT: 1/4 + .5 cart= $170!MA/RI: 1/4 + .5 cart + 15/20% off= $50Which means you can buy more product out of state and make LESS trips to a dispensary.We need to start going out of state if possible so these places in CT can drop their insane prices.

    Nice, organized shop. Associates are super friendly and often remember repeat customers. They also tend to be a few dollars cheaper than some others in the area. Selection is pretty good, but also sometimes is low for certain items (but i notice it's usually similar for all the shops in the area). Def one of my go to stops!

    My absolute go-to spot. Was introduced to this place by a co-worker of mine who recommended it when looking for a recreational dispensary after everything went legal. Staff here is always friendly and fantastic. You always feel welcomed when you arrive here. Even when it is incredibly busy they are very efficient at getting customers served quickly. Staff always seems willing to help anyone that has any questions about purchases and is always patient when explaining things. Absolutely one of the best spots in the area for recreational.

    Nice place, very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Absolutely the worst inventory in CT. Nothing is ever in stock. I’m going to have to pull my card and move it 50 miles down the road because it’s clear we’re catering to the casinos here.When you have 28 half gram carts for sale and 3 gram carts, the more economical option, then you are selling primarily to recreational. When of those 3 gram carts not one is a sativa, it’s clear no one is paying actual attention. Let’s not even talk about finding live resin or live rosin.The store 50 miles down the road can maintain an inventory almost a hundred times larger and consistently, you start looking at cars that get better gas.

    Staff is great. Available flower sizes above an 1/8 are scarce to come by. Few full oz options. And THC content has nosedived. They are fully catering to recreational. Medical was much better supported in the past.

    I been going here for a little while. I'm giving a 3 because I like some of your products. But some of yall workers are dull. Only reason yall keep my steady business is because one of my best friends works here and so does another good friend of mine. Back of the house is stacked. Front of the house is not. Marijuana makes people friendly. Spark more conversations and get people off they phones.

    I would highly recommend. I went here after a couple of foul experiences at Fine Fettle over in Willimantic. The employees over there are skimping buds out of their customers' containers. Breaking the seals to CTPharma containers in hopes that you think it comes off with the lid. Imagine that kind of sad, really. Well, you won't get that over at The Botanist. You can trust them to have the integrity to not leave you with short product. It's clear which company is more professional. Thankfully there is another dispensary I can trust.

    Since going to recreational and putting medical patients second, new staff has no idea what they are doing. I am a day 1 patient. Last time I checked in, I was questioned about having my caregivers card with me. I don’t carry my caregivers card. Why do I need that? Thankfully, a day 1 employee who was familiar with me let her know it was not needed. Once at the counter, employees are bickering and just not as pleasant as when this place first opened. The used to ask me about available points, available deals. Now I am lucky to get my order correct. Really has gone down hill for medical patients.

    Amazing place, good selection. Will be a 3/5 star until they allow me to tip.A month later and still can't tip. May think about going elsewhere. This is the only spot that I go to that does not allow it. Every time I go, the people helping customers are SLAMMED, with the one who helped me the other day was still there 30 min after her shift was supposed to be over. Let us say "thanks". Never require it, but at least allow it.

    Very nice dispensary. Clean and well run. I have to say they have the process down to an art. I had a questionable experience my last pick up with an older female employee who was hyper fixated about not letting me at the counter with my partner when we paid but I can’t let one stinky apple ruin it for the hole joint (see what I did there?).

    Only giving two stars because the majority of staff is wonderful however if you smoke regularly this tree is trash. Made me throw up, I’ve had betters mids. I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt that it’s just this grower or because CT just legalized but still. Don’t waste your money. (My opinion for adult use maybe medical use is better)

    I usually have a pleasant experience here. But today I checked out with Brittany (wears a headband) she was very rude and unhelpful and rushed me out when she didn’t want to answer my question about points (maybe she didn’t know) I had to go to the front desk and ask a very nice gentleman to help me & he was awesome. Brittany should be more upbeat and have a smile on her face ready to help any customer who needs help. I felt uncomfortable but was turned around very quickly when I asked a different worker that was ready to help. Overall a great place though.

    This place used to be awesome prior to adult use. The prices keep climbing for medical use and the few reserved parking spots for medical patients are no where near enough. You also used to be able to get deals on an oz. at a time. Beginning the process of finding somewhere else. I would give one star but the staff are amazing.Editing my review down to one star after todays disastrous visit. The rec users are parking in medical patient spots and no one enforces anything. Not one thing I wanted that showed available online was there. Sat in the medical waiting room while person after person from the rec line went in. 20 minute wait with three med people in front of me. Heavy set lady letting people in was rude. Did not recognize one familiar face from before working there. The person waiting on me seemed like they could care less I was there. Pretty sure they hired all new staff for less money and got rid of the really nice folks that worked there. Looking for a place more convenient to go to. I’ve literally never been so mad leaving there.

    I have frequented this dispensary for the past 2 yrs & I've been greeted by the same friendly faces!! I love the staff & atmosphere! They make it a fun interactive experience holding different events each month. The majority of my transactions are handled by Olga the OG! She always keeps me in the know about their products & upcoming events! She is super friendly, knowledgeable, helpful & always suggests new products when I want to switch up my order! The staff is all so friendly & accommodating. The VIP area is a nice perk now that they've opened up to recreational - there is minimal wait time despite the influx in customers. Highly recommended!

    50 to 60 bucks is the going price for an eighth in CT right now but if I'm paying that price I don't expect fluffy nugs that aren't even dried properly. I can't even get this stuff through my grinder. For now I'll continue to make the long drive to Rise in Branford where you at least get quality weed for the exorbitant price. I'll check back on the Botanist in a few months and hope they get it together.

    I’ve always had a great experience here starting I open their doors! Most days as soon as I would be buzzed in the door someone at the desk would immediately greet me. Kaleigh is one of the wonderful girls that would greet you. She treats me as a acquaintance or are friend, not just a customer! Always going above and beyond for me and the other patients! She’s super pleasant and just has the friendly/warming demeanor about her. She made my renewal process a breeze, when normally I stress about the slightest things. She’s a great patient advocate and is always lending a helping hand making sure any of my needs are met and doing it beyond my expectations!

    I've been a client with them for 5 years. Everyone here is so friendly and helpful. They are always willing to answer any questions I may have or explain a product to me. This week I had ordered something medical and something recreational and they made it fast and efficient. The zoom meetings are also very informative. When you can handle anything thrown at you, such as a pandemic, as well as they did you can count on The Montville Botanist for any of your specific needs.

    I have been coming here since they opened (down the street from where they are now and were called Thames valley.) This is the best dispensary, hands down. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly! They always have an amazing selection of products! There is a dispensary a little closer to where I live, but I still choose to go to the Botanist in Montville! Everyone that works there is so wonderful and the product selection, you just can’t beat!Thank you all for being the best at the Botanist! 😍

    Everytime I go to The Botanist I have a great experience. As soon as I walked in the building and to the check-in counter I was met with a smile and a happy hello. The waiting area was clean, comfortable and there were paper product lists easily accessible so I knew what I wanted before I placed my order and when I did everything went smoothly and efficiently.

    Welcoming as soon as you enter. Quick/in and out service. Friendly workers. A lot of variety. No complaints.
    I only got my medical card a few months ago so I'm still new to navigating the medical use system.I love that the botanist has so many events each month to earn extra loyalty points.And they gather donations for causes that I support.I personally will be participating this month in the donation drive for pet supplies. The humane society does good work finding those wonderful fur babies furever homes.I will continue to go to the botanist. I love it there.

    I personally have mixed feelings. They were great for little gifts like t-shirts, grinders, and discounts. I feel there is a complete lack in actual care for the patient. I spoke to the pharmacist twice and each time felt I was inconveniencing things. To top the treatment she also didn't have the answers I was looking for. I also feel there products are inferior products (but that's my opinion on all operating facilities right now. Not their fault!). I was directed to my doctor, then to my pharmacist then, back to my doctor. Which neither one seemed they wanted to be bothered with my questions anyway. If not them then who? So all and all, I didn't have the great experience here.

Work hard long hours to provide necessary medicine.------03/01/22 edit-----Im glad to be back and it's so nice to see all the same friendly faces from when y'all were Thames valley.Not gunna cap, I was in the wrong for dropping a sour review when y'alls were held up with Covid. That was salty af on my end and I really apologize. We started off "all in this together" and strayed so far from that... :|In the year I was switched elsewhere I learned the HARD WAY that picking up ur cannabis meds from your pharmacy team fam it's really important to have REAL support.There's healthcare "monsters" and there's "health care heros"Since y'als r the same people, I can say for sure that u represent health care heroism. It's so important to have real support and friendly fam you can count on and come to with a need for help and get the same level of care they'd treat their own family too!5.5 out of five stars 😉

    Always Fantastic they get to know their people by name which is always a good feeling when someone addresses You by name and made it a point to remember it.

    So two months ago I gave this place five stars but with how rude new management is I’m changing it to a one star, most of the workers are lovely, but with the new management it feels unprofessional and honestly kinda hostile. They also basically pay you for good reviews by offering you a discount for any 5 star reviews, and they don’t reinforce their mask requirements, which is extremely dangerous. Sad to go but I’m not going to support a place that doesn’t treat all of their costumers with basic respect and decency, and disregards general health standards.

    I really love this place. Everyone that works there are very helpful & will answer any questions you have. I'm really happy I got my card& chose Thames Valley. Their smoke shop has some really cool stuff also& for a reasonable prices.
    The staff at Thames valley is amazing! I have been a patient for three years and from day one I was made to feel comfortable by everyone. All of my questions are always answered with a smile. I am especially grateful for thier handling of the covid 19 pandemic. They kept things going as smoothly as possible under uncertain times. The curbside pickup they made available for high risk patients has helped so much with anxiety and fear. I highly recommend Thames Valley!Kellie Smart

    Thames Valley Relief has been "my" dispensary for almost 2 years now, and I cannot say enough about how wonderful this place is. The staff are always professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly and courteous. They are willing to help and take time with you to answer any questions you have, making you feel comfortable and at ease. The prices are good, they have a wide selection of products, and the online ordering system is easy and convenient. They send timely emails with the most up to date and informative info on everything. They also have an amazing program when you meet income guidelines that gives you product discounts, which is a lifesaver for me. They have the patient in mind with everything they do. And with the smoke shop next door it's perfect! Thames Valley Relief is an essential business in this area for patients, and is just as important and necessary as any other pharmacy for prescriptions for your health. Sorry this is long, but I just love them!

Thames Valley Relief is such a great way to get what I need without feeling "sketchy" by buying from a friend or stranger.I am 55 years young, and just want quality and controlled dosing without the hassle.All the employees are helpful and pleasant to work with. Thank you for changing my life.Carole Miller ????

    I have been a medical marijuana user since almost the start of the program here in Connecticut. I love this dispensary because the staff is extremely helpful, always nice, and they are sensitive to what we need, as patients. I got an email from CTPharma about "everything bagel flavored seasoning" (infused with THC). Then, I checked the online menu, and Thames Valley had it!!! I get teabags, tinctures, distillate, shatter, and sometimes lovely flower there, and every product has been excellent, without exception. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a cannabis newbie, there is someone at Thames Valley who can help you figure out what to take for your situation. There's also a new check-in system that starts soon, and I'm hopeful that it will be an even better system than before. That said, I haven't waited very long since the middle of the pandemic, when staff was low. I love the points system, too! I feel very appreciated at my dispensary. My life is better with Thames Valley Alternative Relief!

    A great experience every time that I go. Everyone who works here is super friendly and knowledgeable beyond belief. In the rare event that they do not have what I have requested they take the time to make sure that I get something comparable that works. The facility is always clean and they have made sure that everyone is safe during these unprecedented times. A giant thank you to Laurie and her staff!!

    I’ve been going to Thames Valley since they opened. They are all great people, kind and very helpful. You feel like one of the “family” there. They work hard for us to make us all feel welcome even during this COVID-19 epidemic. They morphed their operations to align with the CDC guidelines. Patience’s is definitely a virtue when dealing with the changes in the operation.

    Such a great overall experience! I've been a customer for a few months now and from the start the staff has been consistently helpful, friendly and professional. They genuinely seem to enjoy working here which, in my opinion, makes for a great place to shop for customers! They have an excellent and wide variety of items and amazing prices! Also the facility is kept super clean and inviting especially with the wonderful smells 🙂

    I always feel like I'm in good hands at Thames Valley. Everyone is so kind and they have a great selection of product. I always seem to find the best stuff from here and it has really helped me with my PTSD. Also they're pretty dope when it comes to giving stuff away, I enjoy my free lighters and t-shirts.

    Thames Valley is great for beginning patients or even those with plenty of product knowledge. The staff is always willing to answer questions to help you get what works best for you. The line always moves quickly even with current Covid regulations.

    Fantastic service. They really know what they are talking about and can point you to the right thing. I really love their reward system. Product can be expensive like any other dispensary, but the reward system makes you feel a bit better dropping the dime.I really appreciate that they have every form of the good stuff you could ask for, from concentrates to edibles and flower of course. Very clean and friendly.

    The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about their product and their pharmacists are VERY helpful with what they recommend. Dianne and Hillary are the best, but at the same time their ENTIRE team is nothing but equally as awesome.I wont bother switching to Groton's dispensary. Ive come to fully respect and appreciate the service they provide me as a patient, and I feel like my needs and concerns are addressed properly when I have a question about a particular strain.5 out of 5 stars.Thank you for what you guys do in these difficult times during the virus. Thames Valley provides GOD'S medicine, and they do it well ???? ????

    I have been a patient with Thames for a while now and absolutely LOVE the staff and how personal they get with everyone. Hundreds of people and somehow they remember every face. They'll guide you every step so 1) you have full knowledge of what your doing/getting, and 2) because it's just nice being social. I have visited other Dispensaries and so far no one compares to the service provided by staff. If you're new or looking for better treatment, I fully recommend this specific location!!!!
    I have been an avid customer for about 4 years with Thames Valley Relief, the staff is always courteous, smiling, and so friendly! The ladies running the back room are busy bees! And extremely efficient! I have never had any issues whatsoever. I honestly love this company & their employees. They are extremely professional & very helpful in every aspect concerning the Medical Marijuana Program. HIGHLY recommended.

    The people here are super friendly and helpful. We walked in pretty blind and naive and they patiently sat with us and explained everything we needed to know. No judgement or ridicule, just honest down to earth explanations and help.

    I have been a patient for about a year now and I've never had a bad experience. The staff is super friendly and very knowledgeable. I can see by the way the staff interacts with the other patients they care. I would recommend this location to anyone based on its people, the amazing product is just a added bonus.
