Where is the Hi! People cannabis store in New Haven, CT?
The Hi! People cannabis store in New Haven, CT is planned for 1041 State St and is coming soon. Derby schedules delivery to addresses in New Haven; checkout confirms each address.
What we are planning at this address
The store will have the same Bud Bar experience as Derby. The company behind it is the same one, too: we were built by local Connecticut people with local Connecticut investors. You can see all of our Connecticut locations in one place, or read about who we are.
Where the store sits, from East Rock to the train station
The train station at 259 State Street serves the Hartford Line, which lists it on its station page. The store is in the East Rock area, north of the station on the same street.
How adults 21 and older in the city can shop with us today
Both of our stores are listed by DCP as cannabis retailers serving adults 21 and older.
Our Derby store is at 90 Pershing Dr, just off Route 8, where Pershing Drive is northbound Exit 13A. Online ordering is open 24/7, so you can put together an order on the live menu whenever it suits you and choose pickup at the counter.
If you would rather stay home, the same live menu takes scheduled delivery orders, and our delivery page lists the city among the 14 towns served from that store. At checkout, the menu shows the order minimum, the fee and the delivery slot for your address, and the rest is on our delivery page. A New Haven delivery is handed over only to the adult who placed it, who must be 21 or older and show matching ID.
At the Derby counter, payment is by cash or debit card, and credit cards cannot be used. There is an on-site ATM. Current offers are listed on our deals page rather than here, and you can start from the shop if you like to browse by product type.
The Bud Bar experience we plan to bring
Our Bud Bar lets you view and smell cannabis strains before you buy. Where it already runs, it is a dedicated consultation area where you sit down one on one with a budtender, and the Hartford Business Journal reported on March 27, 2025 that the store had opened the state's first bud bar. Hosts with iPads also help you browse the menu and order there.
