Cannabis Dispensary in Essex, MA

Best Budz is the family-owned recreational dispensary at 242 John Wise Ave (Route 133) in Essex. We grow our own cannabis upstairs and sell it downstairs, so a lot of what's on our shelves was grown in the same building you're standing in.

Grown here in Essex

Anything on our menu marked with the Best Budz badge was cultivated upstairs, cured and packaged on site. We also carry a rotating selection from other licensed Massachusetts growers and makers. Every batch is tested by a licensed Massachusetts lab before it reaches the shelf.

A family shop

Best Budz is run by a husband and wife who grew up spending summers on Cape Ann. The people behind the counter are the same people who tend the plants upstairs, so ask us anything. And take in the view while you're here: the window behind the counter looks out over the Essex marsh.
