Hear from Our Customers
You’re not looking for a lecture about terpenes or a sales pitch. You want to know if the product is safe, if it’ll do what you need it to do, and if you’re overpaying.
Here’s what that looks like when you shop with a licensed dispensary. Every product gets lab-tested before it hits the shelf—potency, contaminants, pesticides, the works. You’re not gambling on what some guy mixed in his basement. You’re getting a cannabinoid profile that’s printed on the label and actually accurate.
Our budtenders aren’t just cashiers. They know the difference between a high-CBD ratio for pain and a sativa-dominant strain for focus. They’ll ask what you’re trying to solve for, not what sounds cool. And if you don’t want to come in, same-day delivery gets it to your door in Throggs Neck without the trip to Manhattan or the risk of buying from an unlicensed shop that might not be there next week.
Bring Me Weed operates as a fully licensed cannabis dispensary serving Throggs Neck and the broader Bronx area. That means we’re not one of the 779 illegal shops that got shut down since April—we’re one of the five state-licensed dispensaries actually allowed to sell in this borough.
Throggs Neck residents used to have to travel to Manhattan or deal with unregulated sellers just to access legal cannabis. That’s changed. Now you’ve got a local option that’s verified by New York State, stocked with tested products, and staffed by people who know the difference between CBN for sleep and THC-V for appetite control.
We’re here because the Bronx deserved better than bodegas selling mystery edibles and vape carts that fail lab tests. You’re not our “customer base”—you’re our neighbors.
If you’re coming in, bring a valid ID showing you’re 21 or older. That’s the only requirement. Walk in, talk to a budtender, and tell them what you’re dealing with—pain, sleep issues, creativity, relaxation, whatever. They’ll walk you through options based on cannabinoid profiles, not just THC percentages.
You’ll pay in cash. New York law doesn’t allow credit cards or debit for cannabis purchases because banks operate federally, and cannabis is still illegal at that level. Some dispensaries have ATMs on-site. We’ll let you know what your total is upfront, including the 13% in state and local taxes.
If you’d rather skip the trip, order online through our menu. You’ll see the same lab-tested products, same pricing, same selection. Choose same-day delivery, and we’ll bring it to your address in Throggs Neck. You’ll still need to show ID at the door and pay in cash, but the process is straightforward. Most deliveries arrive within a few hours, depending on volume.

You’ll find cannabis flower in different strains—indica for relaxation, sativa for energy, hybrids for balance. Each batch is labeled with THC and CBD percentages, plus terpene profiles if you care about flavor or specific effects like myrcene for sedation or limonene for mood.
Edibles come in gummies, chocolates, and baked goods, all dosed clearly. Onset time is slower—usually 30 to 90 minutes—but effects last longer. If you’re new to edibles, start with 5mg or less. You can always take more later, but you can’t undo taking too much.
Vapes and concentrates are for people who want faster onset and higher potency. Live resin, distillate, and rosin all have different extraction methods and effects. If you don’t know the difference, ask. We’d rather spend two minutes explaining than have you waste money on something that doesn’t fit what you’re after.
Throggs Neck is part of a growing network of licensed dispensaries across the Bronx. In 10461, you’ve got Green Sun over on Westchester Ave. In 10465, Say Less is on E Tremont. Up in 10469, there’s Cannabis Emporium and Nube NYC. We’re all part of the same legal market that’s trying to push out the unlicensed sellers who’ve been flooding the area with untested products.
Yes, and it’s not close. Licensed dispensaries are required to sell products that pass state-mandated lab testing for potency, pesticides, heavy metals, and microbial contaminants. Unlicensed shops don’t test anything. The label might say 20% THC, but the product could be 5% or 40%—you have no idea. Worse, it could contain pesticides, mold, or synthetic cannabinoids that can cause serious health issues.
New York has shut down over 779 illegal cannabis shops since April, seizing more than $41 million in untested products. Those weren’t just “underground” shops—they were safety risks. People ended up in emergency rooms because they consumed products that weren’t what the packaging claimed.
When you buy from us, you’re getting a product that’s been through a regulated supply chain. It’s grown by a licensed cultivator, processed by a licensed manufacturer, tested by a state-approved lab, and sold by a state-verified retailer. That’s not marketing—it’s the law. If a dispensary can’t show you their license or doesn’t have the Dispensary Verification Tool posted near the entrance, walk out.
Because legal cannabis costs more to produce, test, and sell. Licensed cultivators follow strict regulations for growing conditions, pesticide use, and waste disposal. Labs charge for testing every batch. We pay rent, payroll, insurance, and state fees. Then there’s the 13% tax on top of your purchase, which can climb past 35% in some areas when you factor in local taxes.
Illegal sellers skip all of that. They don’t test products, don’t pay taxes, and don’t follow safety standards. Their cheapest products are often cheaper than what licensed dispensaries pay wholesale. That’s why their prices look better—they’re cutting every corner that keeps you safe.
That said, legal prices are dropping. New York’s average price per item fell from $36.06 in January 2025 to $31.49 recently, and it’s expected to keep declining as more licensed growers enter the market and supply catches up with demand. If price is your main concern, ask about loyalty programs or rotating discounts. We offer ways to save without compromising quality.
Indica strains are typically associated with relaxation and sedation. People use them for sleep, pain relief, or unwinding after a long day. The effects tend to be more body-focused—you’ll feel it in your muscles and joints more than your head.
Sativa strains are usually more energizing and cerebral. They’re popular for daytime use, creative work, or social settings. You might feel more focused, talkative, or motivated. Some people find sativas helpful for managing fatigue or low mood.
Hybrids are a mix of both. Depending on the ratio, they can lean more indica or sativa, or they can be balanced. Most strains sold today are technically hybrids because decades of crossbreeding have blurred the lines between pure indica and pure sativa genetics.
Here’s the catch: the indica/sativa labels are helpful as a starting point, but they’re not the full story. Terpenes and cannabinoid ratios matter just as much, sometimes more. A high-myrcene hybrid might feel more sedating than a low-myrcene indica. If you’re new to this, tell our budtenders what effect you’re after, not what category you think you need.
No. Cannabis is still illegal under federal law, and banks operate on the federal level. That means they won’t process cannabis transactions, even in states where it’s legal. You’ll need to pay in cash.
Some dispensaries have ATMs on-site, but you’ll usually pay a fee to withdraw. If you’re planning to visit, bring cash with you. Don’t forget to account for the taxes—your $50 purchase will cost closer to $57 after the state and local taxes are added.
This isn’t a choice we’re making to be difficult. It’s a limitation of federal banking law. Until cannabis is rescheduled or legalized federally, cash is the only option. Some dispensaries are exploring workarounds like cashless ATMs or payment apps, but those still function as cash transactions on the back end.
If you’re ordering delivery, the same rule applies. The driver will need cash payment when they arrive, and you’ll need to show your ID to confirm you’re 21 or older.
Every licensed dispensary in New York is required to display the Dispensary Verification Tool near the main entrance. It’s a QR code or placard that links to the state’s Office of Cannabis Management database. Scan it, and you’ll see the dispensary’s license status, address, and license number.
If a shop doesn’t have that posted, or if they refuse to show it when asked, don’t buy anything. They’re operating illegally, and their products haven’t been tested or regulated. You’re taking a real risk with your health and your money.
You can also check the OCM’s website directly. They maintain a public list of all licensed dispensaries in the state, searchable by zip code or county. In the Bronx, there are currently only five state-licensed cannabis dispensaries. That’s it. If you’re shopping somewhere that’s not on that list, you’re not shopping legally.
The state has been aggressive about shutting down unlicensed shops—779 closures since April, with over $65 million in penalties issued. Enforcement is working, but new illegal shops keep popping up. Your best protection is to verify the license before you buy.
Start by figuring out what you’re trying to accomplish. Are you dealing with chronic pain? Trouble sleeping? Anxiety? Just looking to relax on the weekend? Your goal will shape what products make sense for you.
When you come in or call, be honest with our budtenders about your experience level. If you’ve never used cannabis before, we’ll steer you toward lower-THC options or products with balanced CBD ratios. CBD can help moderate the psychoactive effects of THC, which makes the experience less intense and more manageable for beginners.
If you’re trying edibles, start with 5mg of THC or less. Wait at least 90 minutes before taking more. Edibles take longer to kick in, and the effects last longer—sometimes four to six hours. It’s easy to take too much if you’re impatient.
If you’re smoking or vaping, start with one or two small inhales and wait 10 to 15 minutes to see how you feel. You can always take more, but you can’t undo taking too much. And if you do overdo it, don’t panic. Drink water, eat something, and find a comfortable place to sit. It’ll pass. No one has ever died from a cannabis overdose.
Most importantly, don’t feel like you need to figure this out on your own. That’s what our budtenders are here for. Ask questions. We’d rather spend time helping you find the right product than have you waste money on something that doesn’t work.
