    When you first walk in the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The staff greet you with a smile and offer assistance. Your age is verified by legal identification at the entrance. You are then directed to the staff at the counter. These "budtenders" are very helpful. They will ask what your are looking for and guide you through the products that they recommend or that you inquire about. I asked for flower and concentrate that would remind me of the flavors from 40-50 years ago. A lot of today's cannabis products have many flavor profiles. Something we didn't have back then. Back then we drove around, sometimes for hours, looking for good grass at a decent price. Today you walk into a dispensary and have a multitude of choices "instantly!" After consultation I selected 1/2 ounce of RUFFHOUSE flower. I also selected a 3.5 gram Super Sour Glue-Live Rosin concentrate. Both products brought me closer to that "Old School" flavor profile. I feel safer, more confident, and satisfied buying products from a licensed dispensary than I would buying unregulated/untested products from an unlicensed vendor. The products that I purchased were as described by the budtender. The quality, THC level, and taste were all there! The effects were phenomenal! I am now a loyal client of Union Chill Cannabis Company. "NO REGRETS!" ;-)

    I love this place. Every staff member I've met balances professionalism and friendliness perfectly. I have yet to purchase a product that was anything less than mind-blowing. I also didn't expect the prices to be THAT much lower than during the long, dark age of prohibition. We're leaving in the future!

    The Dabber Hashery
    5.0(1)
    I’ve been going here since they first opened as they were the first legal dispensary to open in the area. The Dabber Hashery is unique in that it isn’t just a dispensary, but also a grower with a farm nearby. The service is always great and the staff and very kind and knowledgeable. I’ve never had anything but a great experience. They sell both their own products (whether it be the product they’ve grown, or edibles they’ve made, or bubble hash they produced from the cannabis they grew), as well as some products from other Upstate NY companies, so everything is pretty much local, and the quality is always top notch. I’ve had top shelf and the cheapest stuff they’ve had, and it was all quality. I highly recommend stopping in, and highly suggest checking out their bubble hash. And to speak to the atmosphere, it’s very welcoming and cozy. Another dispensary had opened nearby, but I was immediately put off by how sterile it felt, which added to how uneducated the staff at this other business were. That was a defining thing for me; at the Dabber Hashery, the employees grow/make/use their products so they can speak about it, whereas a lot of other places (such as the other store i mentioned) have staff that basically just read you what Leafly has to say about whatever they’re selling, as if they have no first hand knowledge of their own products.

    Insanely friendly and casual environment. Doesn’t look like your standard cookie-cutter dispensary either, which I enjoy. Feels like a place that I would want to chill and light up in. Vibes are always high and the selection is always great. Everyone is knowledgeable and ready to get into as much detail as you’d like about products. Always running great discounts/specials and have one of the best Tier systems for discounts that I’ve seen yet. I could go on longer, but you might as well go in and experience it all for yourself. This has become my new go-to dispo.

​​What to expect from weed dispensaries in New York

New York is home to over 100 weed dispensaries that primarily serve medical patients throughout the state. Although New York has legalized recreational cannabis use, recreational dispensaries have yet to receive the green light from officials to open their doors to the public. In this guide, Leafly's dispensary experts have done the research to help you understand the essential information you need to navigate the Empire State's unique dispensary scene.


New York dispensaries are cash-only

Like other states that have legalized cannabis, New York requires all cannabis purchases to be cash. Fortunately, most local cannabis shops have ATMs to allow you to take out money for a small fee. New York cannabis shops are cash-only because banks operate on the federal level, where marijuana is still illegal, making banks unable to accept anything but cash from dispensaries. Dispensaries in New York do not accept personal checks, credit cards, debit cards, or cryptocurrency as forms of payment for cannabis products.


Items to bring to a New York dispensary

To enter a medical dispensary in New York, you must present a valid photo identification card and your medical marijuana card. Only medical marijuana patients with a valid medical marijuana card may enter a medical dispensary in New York. The New York State Office of Cannabis Management issues medical cards for patients in the state. Unfortunately, New York medical dispensaries do not accept out-of-state medical cards.

How to find legit cannabis dispensaries in New York

New Yorkers new to medical cannabis shops may wonder what makes a medical dispensary legitimate. Legit medical dispensaries are dispensaries that have a legal license to operate. Today, there are over 100 licensed and legitimate medical dispensaries in New York. You can verify medical dispensary licenses through the Office of Cannabis Management or see a complete list of licensed marijuana dispensaries in New York on Leafly.com.

Where to safely consume cannabis in New York

New York has passed laws outlining where people can and cannot smoke weed. Essentially, New York's consumption laws outlaw public cannabis consumption. The only location where you are free to smoke and enjoy cannabis in New York safely is in the privacy of your home. Anywhere smoking is prohibited in New York, cannabis is too.


How to transport weed in New York

It's important to note that New York has passed laws regarding the transportation of cannabis and consumption laws. To safely and legally transport cannabis legally in New York, you must meet the following requirements:

  • Cannabis can only be transported by an adult aged 21 years old or older
  • Individuals may not consume cannabis or be intoxicated by cannabis while driving

In New York, driving under the influence of cannabis is illegal. Penalties for driving under the influence of cannabis start with a $500-$1,000 fine, up to one year in jail, and six-month license revocation. These fines continue to grow with each offense. A third offense comes with ten years in jail, and a fine of up to $10,000.

New York cannabis history

New York is a leader in industries like tourism, finance, and business. In 2014, medical cannabis joined the list when The Empire State legalized medical marijuana. Recreational marijuana was legalized in March 2020, although recreational dispensaries have not yet been able to open their doors.

Types of weed products available in New York

Medical dispensaries in New York offer a wide selection of local medical cannabis products and strains ranging in price, quality, potency, and unique cannabinoid combinations (Ex. high THC, low CBD). Cannabis products widely available in New York dispensaries include cannabis flower, THC concentrates, THC edibles, cartridges, and pre-rolls.
