Marijuana Dispensaries, Delivery, and Doctors in Brooklyn

Brooklyn is known by many as one of the more hip boroughs of New York City and it surely has plenty to do for visitors and locals alike. One of the most iconic attractions near Brooklyn is Coney Island, a classic amusement park that has been open for over a century. If you’re looking for more history, head to the Brooklyn Museum for beautiful art exhibits in a historic building. Don’t miss out on a walk over the Brooklyn Bridge, a staple of any New York visit. The Brooklyn Botanic Gardens also offer a green escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Brooklyn is also known for its cool bar scene, tasty restaurants and thrift shopping, ensuring you’ll have plenty to do when visiting. 

Unfortunately, Brooklyn is not much of a destination for cannabis tourism. While New York legalized medicinal marijuana in 2014, adult-use marijuana remains illegal. Furthermore, the state doesn’t have reciprocity for other states’ medical marijuana cards, meaning that only locals may purchase cannabis at a medical marijuana dispensary in Brooklyn or New York City. For those with a valid MMJ card, there are a variety of dispensaries in the city to choose from. It should also be noted that cannabis has been decriminalized, making possession and consumption of marijuana a misdemeanor crime.
