Getting To Us
The Flatiron store sits on West 18th Street between 5th and 6th Avenue. Union Square is served by the 4, 5, 6, L, N, Q, R, and W trains at the 14th Street station, so most of the city reaches the area with a single ride, and the store is a short walk north from there.
If you'd rather come to the Chelsea store, it's at 302 8th Avenue and works well if you're heading toward the West Side.

Buying Legally In New York
A few things worth knowing before you visit:
- You must be 21 or older with a valid government-issued photo ID.
- 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.
- State cannabis taxes apply at checkout.
- You can confirm any retailer's license at cannabis.ny.gov, which lists the state's licensed adult-use dispensaries. If a shop doesn't appear there, it isn't licensed.
