Sol Flower is known for its judgment-free, approachable vibe as well as a focus on education, which means it’s perfect for newbies tiptoeing into the world of recreational marijuana. The shops carry a variety of brands including two—Good Things Coming and Jukebox—that are made with marijuana grown locally at the shop’s Copperstate Farms. Plus, with locations in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Sun City, and Tempe, you can drop into a familiar shop no matter where you happen to be in the Valley.

Hana Dispensaries has been serving up the best of cannabis since 2015, and was one of the first licensed cannabis dispensaries, and is now one of the state’s largest wholesalers. It prides itself on having sought after brands like Willie’s Reserve, Willie Nelson’s cannabis brand, as well as offering friendly service to weed newbies and longtime users alike.

Hana Dispensaries

If you want to shop in a hip, aesthetically pleasing environment with friendly service and top quality products—this is a must-visit. The recently opened Tempe location feels like stepping into a high-end department store (complete with merchandise for the superfan), but isn’t too overwhelming for inexperienced users. They offer flower, pre-rolls, topicals, edibles, and more, but we love the Sunday Goods vapes—which come in flavors like Tropic Thunder and Lemon Slushie—the most.

This award-winning dispensary is one of only female-led dispensaries in the state, not only helping to promote diversity in the industry, but also giving back to the state—having donated $100,000 to charity since it opened in 2013. Not to mention, it offers some of the top local brands like MÜV, Sunday Goods and Good Things Coming, in addition to its own products.

Giving Tree Dispensary

As one of the largest suppliers of craft cannabis in Arizona, The Flower Shop puts a focus on the importance of clean, organic products without limiting selection—all provided in a beautiful setting. It’s hard to go wrong, but our top picks include The Flower Shop’s mini pre rolls and flower.
