Chinatown Dispensary Hours and Menu: Everything at The Flowery Canal Street

If you are visiting Chinatown or staying at a hotel in the Lower East Side area, The Flowery’s Chinatown dispensary at 70 Canal Street puts a fully stocked, licensed weed shop right in the middle of one of the city’s most walkable neighborhoods. Grab dim sum, browse the street vendors, then stop in for some pot. The location could not be more convenient for tourists and locals alike.

Here is everything you need to know about hours, what is on the menu, and how the whole thing works if this is your first time in a New York dispensary.

Location and Hours

Address: 70 Canal Street, New York, NY 10002

The store sits on Canal Street between Mott and Elizabeth – the heart of Chinatown and a block from Little Italy. If you are walking from the Manhattan Bridge, the B/D trains at Grand Street, or any hotel in the LES/SoHo area, you are within a 5-10 minute walk.

Hours: Open seven days a week. The Flowery keeps generous hours that cover both afternoon tourists and evening shoppers. Check their locations page for exact daily times, as they occasionally adjust for holidays and seasons.

No appointment needed. Walk in anytime during business hours, show your ID (21+ with valid photo ID), and browse. That is it.

The Full Menu

The Flowery Chinatown carries the same curated menu as all twelve Flowery locations. Nothing is watered down for the tourist market – this is a real dispensary for real smokers, visitors and locals alike.

Flower – Premium strains from brands like Packs, Runtz, and To The Moon. Indica, sativa, and hybrid options covering every preference and experience level.

Edibles – Gummies, chocolates, hard candies, and more. If you are in town from a state that does not have legal recreational weed, edibles are the most tourist-friendly option – no smoking required, discreet to consume, easy to enjoy back at your hotel.

Vapes – Disposable vape pens are the most popular tourist purchase at this location. Zero setup, portable, minimal smell. Perfect for walking around the city or using on a rooftop with friends.

Pre-Rolls – Ready to smoke without needing to buy any accessories. Grab a single or a pack.

Tinctures and More – Tinctures for people who prefer not to smoke or vape, plus accessories if you need a grinder, papers, or a simple pipe.

What Tourists Need to Know

You do not need to be a New York resident. Any adult 21 or older with a valid photo ID can buy weed in New York. Visiting from Connecticut, New Jersey, California, Texas, wherever – your out-of-state ID works fine.

Pay with cash or card. The Flowery accepts both. No need to find a particular ATM or worry about having exact cash.

You can walk around with it. New York allows adults to possess up to 3 ounces in public. Your dispensary bag is legal to carry anywhere in the city. However, consumption rules vary – smoking pot in public parks or on sidewalks carries potential fines. Hotels, private spaces, and designated areas are your safest bet.

Take it home with you? Check your state. If you are flying home, remember that TSA operates under federal law. Driving back to a legal state is generally fine, but crossing into a state where pot remains illegal with New York purchases creates legal risk. Know the rules where you are going.

Why The Flowery Over Other Chinatown Options

Canal Street has no shortage of shops that look like they sell weed. Many of them are not licensed. The difference matters:

• Licensed dispensaries sell lab-tested product with accurate THC labels
• Unlicensed shops sell whatever they want with no quality verification
• Licensed purchases are legal; unlicensed purchases technically are not
• Licensed dispensaries cannot sell to minors; unlicensed shops may not check

The Flowery’s OCM license means every product on their shelf has been tested for potency, pesticides, heavy metals, and contaminants. You know what you are getting. That peace of mind is worth the walk past a few sketchy storefronts.

Delivery to Your Hotel

If you would rather not carry a bag around Chinatown, The Flowery also offers same-day delivery to Manhattan addresses – including hotels. Order after you check in, have it delivered, and it is waiting in your room before dinner.

Same discreet packaging as always. No logos, no identifying marks. Meet the driver in the lobby, flash your ID, grab your bag, go upstairs.
