Hear from Our Customers
Here’s what changes when you buy from us instead of an unlicensed shop. Every product you pick up has been lab-tested for potency and contaminants. You’re not guessing what’s in it or hoping the label is accurate.
You also get access to budtenders who actually know the difference between sativa, indica, and hybrid strains. They can walk you through edibles, concentrates, flower, and vapes without the sales pitch. Just real guidance based on what you’re looking for.
And you’re supporting a legal business that’s contributing to the local economy, not funding operations that dodge taxes and safety standards. New York has over 556 licensed dispensaries now, and enforcement against illegal shops has pushed more customers toward places like ours. That means better availability, more consistent products, and a market that’s finally catching up to demand.
Bring Me Weed is a state-licensed cannabis dispensary serving Norwood and the surrounding Bronx neighborhoods. We’re part of the growing network of legal dispensaries across New York that are helping customers transition from the illicit market to regulated, tested products.
Every dispensary in New York that’s legitimate has an OCM Dispensary Verification Tool posted in the storefront. You can scan it and confirm we’re licensed. That’s not something the thousands of unlicensed shops can offer, and it matters more than most people realize.
We’re here because the Bronx needed more access to legal cannabis. Across zip codes like 10452, 10453, 10467, 10469, and 10470, licensed dispensaries are opening up and giving residents real options. We’re one of them, and we’re sticking around.
Walk in and bring a valid ID proving you’re 21 or older. That’s the only requirement. From there, you can browse our selection or talk to a budtender about what you’re looking for.
If you’re new to cannabis or just unfamiliar with the legal market, the budtender will ask a few questions. What kind of experience are you after? Are you looking for something to help you relax, focus, or sleep? Do you prefer smoking, vaping, or edibles? They’ll guide you toward products that fit.
Once you’ve made a choice, you’ll pay at the register. Prices include a 13% state excise tax, which is standard across all legal dispensaries in New York. You’ll leave with a product that has the state’s universal symbol on it, meaning it’s been tested and regulated. And if you want to check the product’s Certificate of Analysis, there’s a QR code on the packaging that links directly to the lab results.

We carry flower, pre-rolls, edibles, vapes, concentrates, and tinctures. That’s the standard range you’ll find at most licensed dispensaries, but the difference is in the sourcing and testing. Every product we sell has gone through New York’s regulatory process, which means lab testing for potency, pesticides, heavy metals, and microbial contaminants.
In 2024, New York’s legal market saw over 500 cannabis brands enter the state. That means more variety than ever, but it also means you need a dispensary that curates quality and keeps inventory consistent. We work with brands that meet state standards and deliver what the label says.
The Bronx now has licensed dispensaries in nearly every zip code. In 10452, there’s CONBUD by Yankee Stadium. In 10467, you’ll find Smoking Scholars. In 10469, Cannabis Emporium and Nube NYC are serving the community. In 10470, SESH NYC and Two Buds Dispensary are both open. We’re part of that network, and we’re all working to make legal cannabis more accessible than the illegal market that used to dominate.
Check for the OCM Dispensary Verification Tool. Every licensed dispensary in New York is required to display it in the storefront. You scan the QR code, and it takes you directly to the Office of Cannabis Management’s website with a list of all legal adult-use dispensaries.
If a shop doesn’t have that tool, it’s not licensed. New York padlocked over 1,500 unlicensed dispensaries in 2024, but thousands more are still operating. The OCM estimates that illegal shops still outnumber legal ones, especially in New York City. That’s why verification matters. You’re not just protecting yourself from untested products—you’re also making sure your money goes to a business that’s actually contributing to the legal market and local economy.
Licensed dispensaries sell products that have been lab-tested and carry New York’s universal symbol. That symbol means the product has been tested for potency and contaminants like pesticides, heavy metals, and mold. Unlicensed shops don’t test their products, and they’re not required to follow any safety or labeling standards.
You’re also paying state and local taxes at a licensed dispensary, which funds regulation, enforcement, and community programs. Unlicensed shops dodge those taxes entirely. And when enforcement shuts down illegal operations, licensed dispensaries in areas like Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the Bronx see revenue jump by as much as 50%. That’s because customers realize the legal option is safer, more reliable, and actually accountable.
Yes, you’ll pay about 13% in state and local excise taxes at a licensed dispensary. That’s built into the price at checkout. It’s higher than what you’d pay at an unlicensed shop, but you’re also getting a completely different product.
Legal cannabis is tested, labeled accurately, and sold by people who are trained to help you find what works. Unlicensed shops sell whatever they can source, often with no testing and no accountability. If something’s wrong with the product, you have no recourse. The tax you’re paying at a legal dispensary funds the infrastructure that keeps the market safe and growing. And as more dispensaries open and competition increases, prices are starting to come down. The legal market in New York is expected to hit $2.5 to $3 billion by 2025, and that growth is making legal cannabis more affordable and accessible.
Start with what you’re trying to get out of it. Are you looking to relax, sleep better, manage pain, or just try something new? A good budtender will ask follow-up questions about your tolerance, preferences, and any past experiences with cannabis.
They’ll also explain the difference between sativa, indica, and hybrid strains, and help you understand product types like edibles, tinctures, and concentrates. If you’re nervous or unsure, say that. We’re trained to create a space where you can ask questions without judgment. That’s a big part of what separates the legal market from the illicit one—education and transparency. You’re not just buying a product. You’re learning how to use it safely and effectively.
Yes. Every regulated product sold at a licensed dispensary in New York includes a QR code or link to its Certificate of Analysis. That document shows the lab results for potency, cannabinoids, terpenes, and contaminants.
You can scan the code right in the store or check it at home before you use the product. It’s one of the most important differences between legal and illegal cannabis. If a shop can’t show you lab results, they’re not licensed, and the product hasn’t been tested. New York’s regulations require this level of transparency, and it’s designed to protect you. If you have questions about what the COA means, ask your budtender. They should be able to walk you through it.
Yes. The Bronx has licensed dispensaries across most zip codes now. In 10452, there’s CONBUD by Yankee Stadium on Gerard Ave. In 10453, Bleu Leaf Dispensary is on Jerome Ave. In 10458, you’ll find Freshly Baked NYC, Guardian Wellness, and Herbwell Cannabis. In 10467, Smoking Scholars is on Allerton Ave. In 10469, Cannabis Emporium and Nube NYC are both open. And in 10470, SESH NYC and Two Buds Dispensary are serving the community.
All of these dispensaries are licensed by the state and verified by the OCM. You can visit any of them and expect the same level of safety, testing, and transparency. The more legal options that open, the harder it gets for unlicensed shops to compete. That’s good for everyone who wants access to cannabis that’s actually regulated and safe.
