Portage has 8 dispensaries licensed by the Michigan Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA). Adults 21 and older with a valid government photo ID can shop, including visitors and Western Michigan University students from neighboring Kalamazoo who are old enough. None of Portage's stores hold a medical license, so every shop here is adult-use. Each store needs both a state license and a City of Portage operating permit, under ordinances the city council first approved in 2018 and updated in 2020 and 2023.
Portage is the late-night option for the Kalamazoo area. Google lists two Portage stores as open around the clock and two more as open until 11:59 p.m., hours you will not find at most Kalamazoo shops just to the north.
