Getting To Us
Chelsea Market sits between 9th and 10th Avenues, from 15th to 16th Street. From there, the Chelsea store at 302 8th Avenue is a walk north on 8th Avenue. The C and E trains run along 8th Avenue if you'd rather ride part of the way.
There isn't a licensed dispensary inside Chelsea Market. The building is set up for food and retail, and cannabis retail needs a separate state license tied to a specific address. If you're unsure about a nearby shop, confirm its license at cannabis.ny.gov before buying.
Hours
Both stores keep the same hours:
- Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday: 10am to 10pm
- Thursday, Friday: 10am to midnight
- Saturday, Sunday: 10am to 10pm
What We Carry
The menu changes often, so check the live menu for what's in stock and for current pricing. In general we carry flower, vapes and carts, pre-rolls, edibles, concentrates, THC beverages, tinctures, topicals, CBD, and accessories.
If you care about flavor and want to pick by terpene profile rather than by strain name, our budtenders can walk you through it. Just ask at the counter.

A Note On Cooking With Cannabis
People ask about this a lot. Making edibles at home means decarboxylating the flower first, infusing it into a fat like butter or oil, and then doing the dosing math carefully so each serving is mild and predictable. Home cooks usually want a low per-serving dose, and getting there by hand is easy to get wrong. If you'd rather skip the math, a pre-dosed edible tells you exactly how much is in each piece. We can talk through either approach at the counter.
Delivery
We deliver in Manhattan. Check the live menu to confirm whether your address is in range and to place an order.
Buying Legally In New York
- You must be 21 or older with a valid government-issued photo ID. We check it.
- New York's adult-use possession limit is commonly cited as up to 3 ounces of flower or 24 grams of concentrate at one time.
- Cannabis can't legally cross state lines. Don't try to bring it through JFK, LaGuardia, or Newark.
- State cannabis taxes apply at checkout, and you can confirm any retailer at cannabis.ny.gov.
