West Hollywood has 11 dispensaries licensed by the California Department of Cannabis Control (DCC). Anyone 21 or older with a valid government photo ID can shop, including tourists with an out-of-state license or passport, and 10 West Hollywood licenses also serve medical patients 18 and older. WeHo is also known for places to use cannabis legally outside a home: the city created consumption lounge permits in 2017, and several stores on Santa Monica Boulevard have a lounge on site.
West Hollywood covers under two square miles, and most of its stores sit on one walkable stretch of Santa Monica Boulevard, so you can compare several shops on foot.

Visiting a Dispensary in West Hollywood: ID, Payment and Hours
- ID: Bring a valid, unexpired government photo ID showing you are 21 or older. Lounges require the same ID.
- Hours: State rules allow sales from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. Lounge hours can differ from store hours.
- Payment: Cash works everywhere and most stores take debit cards. Credit cards are uncommon because cannabis is still federally illegal.
- Adult-use only: The Woods WeHo holds an adult-use license only, so medical patients under 21 should shop elsewhere.
West Hollywood and California Cannabis Laws: Purchase Limits, Lounges and Driving
Adults 21 and older can buy up to 28.5 grams of non-concentrated cannabis, 8 grams of concentrate and 6 immature plants per day. See our California marijuana laws guide for possession and home grow rules.
- Consumption lounges: State law lets cities permit on-site use at licensed businesses, and West Hollywood was one of the first to do so. Since January 1, 2025, state law has also let cities allow lounges to serve non-cannabis food and drinks and host live events.
- Public use: Outside a licensed lounge or private property, using cannabis on Santa Monica Boulevard, the Sunset Strip or in a park is an infraction with a fine of up to $100.
- Driving: After a lounge visit, use a rideshare. Driving while impaired is illegal, and so is using cannabis in a car.

Every sale includes California's 15% cannabis excise tax plus sales tax. Local cannabis business taxes vary by city and are built into prices or listed on your receipt, so compare out-the-door totals. Medical patients with a state MMIC card pay no sales tax on medicinal cannabis.
