21+ only
This site lists licensed cannabis retailers. You need to be 21 or over, or 18 and over with a valid medical cannabis card where your state allows it.
10 licensed shops open in Sanford right now, ranked on a star rating weighted by how many people actually left one. Green Truck leads at 4.9.
A 4.9 from 300 people is a weaker claim than a 4.8 from 7,000, so every rating here is pulled toward the Maine average in proportion to how few reviews sit behind it. Both figures are printed on each entry.

9 Renaissance Way
International snacks share the shelves with the cannabis, and regulars say they alone make the trip worthwhile. The store is a looker, with warm lighting and a barbershop theme, and customers name the same budtenders again and again. The gummies get singled out as some of the best in town.

168 Country Club Rd Unit E
Deals are the running theme, backed by quality flower and concentrates, with shatter and brick hash both earning mentions. The inventory is wide, covering many forms of medicine, and the counter staff are laid back and know their product. This is a medical dispensary, so bring your card.

72 Emery St
Concentrate fans come for the ice water hash and cured and live resin, and the deals do not require buying in bulk. Big harvest sales are the time to stock up, and staff are quick to suggest a swap when a strain sells out. Medical cardholders can order ahead and expect a fast text back.
Open
168 Country Club Rd Unit A
Revolving deals and flavorful concentrates keep regulars loyal, and some say they trust it enough to shop nowhere else. The shop is well maintained and the staff are attentive, treating longtime customers like extended family. It is a medical dispensary with curbside pickup and delivery, and it is cash only.
Open
A star average hides how many people stood behind it. Every rating is shrunk toward the Maine mean in proportion to its review count, so a shop needs a high score and real volume to reach the top. The weighted figure sits next to the raw one on every entry.
Every one Google lists as open and licensed under a cannabis category at the time of the last check. Shops that had closed permanently or temporarily are dropped, as is anything that turned up in the search but sits outside Maine.
Because we have not read one. Plenty of shops sell only through a third-party ordering platform that publishes nothing on their own domain, and a brand list is not worth guessing at.
Quarterly. Ratings move and shops close, and a list nobody re-checks becomes a directory of places that used to be good.
