Weedmaps Dispensary & Menu Scraper

Weedmaps Dispensary & Menu Scraper

Scrape Weedmaps dispensaries and menus from any US city or state, up to a million listings per run. Every dispensary comes with its name, address, phone, hours, product menu, and service types. No API key needed. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

Weedmaps lists thousands of dispensaries, delivery services, and pickup locations across the US, but there is no public API to pull structured data at scale. This Actor reads the public Weedmaps directory directly, filtered by state, city, service type, or a custom URL, and returns each dispensary as a flat row with its full menu.

Who uses it	What they scrape Weedmaps for
Cannabis market researchers	Which dispensaries operate in a given region and what products they stock
Competitive intelligence analysts	Track pricing, product variety, and service types across local competitors
Lead generation teams	Build a contact list of dispensaries for outreach or partnership
Supply chain planners	Map the retail landscape before entering a new state or city

What it does

This Actor collects Weedmaps dispensary listings by state, city, or direct URL, and returns each one as a flat row with name, address, contact info, hours, and product menu items.

• 📍 Location-based scraping: Pick a state and optionally a city from the dropdown, or paste any Weedmaps URL to scrape that exact page.
• 🔍 Service type filter: Narrow results to storefront, delivery, or pickup only.
• 📦 Full menu extraction: Each dispensary row includes product names, categories, and prices when available.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Configure the run

Drive the Actor from a state and city dropdown, or a direct Weedmaps URL, and filter by service type as each listing is read so only matching dispensaries reach your dataset. The Input tab lists every parameter.

A first run with the defaults:

{
  "maxItems": 10,
  "state": "california",
  "retailerServices": "storefront",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}

A larger pull:

{
  "maxItems": 200,
  "state": "california",
  "retailerServices": "storefront",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}

Free users

Free-plan runs return up to 10 results as a preview. Upgrade your Apify plan to collect up to 1,000,000 results per run.

Run it

1. Create a free Apify account with $5 in credit.
2. Open the Weedmaps Dispensary & Menu Scraper.
3. Set your inputs and any filters, then click Start.
4. Export the results as CSV, Excel, JSON, or XML from the Dataset tab.

Run it programmatically through the Apify API (run-sync-get-dataset-items) or the ApifyClient for JavaScript and Python.

Use with AI agents (MCP)

Give an AI agent live access to Weedmaps through the Model Context Protocol. Add the Actor to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client:

claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=parseforge/weedmaps-scraper"

Then prompt it in plain language to run the scraper and read back the results.

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Check that the state and city are spelled correctly in the dropdown. If using a Start URL, make sure it is a valid Weedmaps dispensary or city page. A run that finds nothing says so in the run status and charges nothing, and it tells you whether Weedmaps answered with an empty list or blocked the request.

The run is very slow.

A state-wide scrape pages through every listing in the state. Narrow the location to a single city, or set a radius, to speed up the run.

I see duplicate dispensaries.

Some dispensaries appear in multiple categories or nearby cities. The Actor does not deduplicate by default. You can remove duplicates in post-processing using the dispensary name and address.

Product menu data is missing.

Not all dispensaries list their menu on Weedmaps. The Actor only returns menu items when they are publicly visible on the page.

The run says Weedmaps blocked it.

Weedmaps runs bot protection that occasionally challenges an exit IP. The Actor retries on a fresh IP and switches to residential proxies on its own when a block repeats, so most runs recover without you doing anything. If a run still ends blocked, nothing is charged for it: run it again, or leave the proxy on Apify Residential from the start.

FAQ

Question	Answer
Do I need a Weedmaps API key?	No. The Actor reads public Weedmaps pages directly. No login or API key is required.
Can I scrape all dispensaries in a state?	Yes. Select a state and leave the city field empty to scrape every city in that state. The Actor returns all available dispensaries up to your maxItems limit.
What data does each row contain?	Each row includes the dispensary name, address, phone, email, website, weekly hours, licence details, service type, and the product menu item with its name, category, brand, and price.
Does it scrape product menus?	Yes. When a dispensary has a menu on Weedmaps, the Actor extracts product names, categories, and prices.
What is the maxItems limit?	Free users are limited to 100 items. Paid users can set up to 1,000,000. The Actor stops when it reaches the limit or when no more dispensaries are found.
Can I scrape a single dispensary page?	Yes. Paste a dispensary URL such as https://weedmaps.com/dispensaries/nug-oakland into Start URL and the Actor returns that dispensary and its menu. A city URL such as https://weedmaps.com/dispensaries/in/united-states/california/oakland scrapes that whole city.
What proxy does it use?	Apify Proxy on datacenter by default. If Weedmaps blocks an exit IP twice, the Actor switches itself to residential for the rest of the run. You can pin residential from the start in Advanced Options.
How long does a run take?	It depends on the number of dispensaries. A single city with 10 dispensaries finishes in under a minute. A full state scrape may take several minutes.
Can I filter by delivery only?	Yes. Set the Retailer Services filter to Delivery to return only dispensaries that offer delivery.
What export formats are supported?	You can export the dataset as CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML from the Apify dataset page.
