Which cannabis store serves Monroe, CT?
Hi! People Derby, at 90 Pershing Dr, Derby, CT 06418, is the cannabis store that serves the town. Shoppers 21 and older can order ahead for pickup at our counter or choose a scheduled delivery. Our store page covers the rest, from the Bud Bar to parking.
From the center of town to exit 13A
Our mapped route from the center of town to our door uses Route 110. If your drive puts you on Route 8 instead, Pershing Drive is exit 13A, a northbound exit and a southbound entrance, and the ramp is signed for Pershing Drive and Ansonia. Our Route 8 guide covers the ramps.
We have free on-site parking. The Valley Independent Sentinel reported on January 20, 2025 that the store is about 3,000 square feet with 90 parking spaces.
Stepney Green, Wolfe Park and the town in numbers
Stepney Green, at 14 Pepper Street, was purchased for public use in 1817 for 140 dollars, according to the local history site's page on the green. That page describes the green as framed on its three sides by the Bridgeport and Newtown Turnpike (Route 25), Pepper Street and Green Street, and says the residents of Stepney Village voted to name the space Maple Park. It also says the most famous attendant at the Millerite camp meeting was Miss Sojourner Truth.
Wolfe Park, at 285 Cutlers Farm Road, spans almost 400 acres with five trails, as the town's knowledge base entry on hiking at Wolfe Park puts it. The same entry describes a .68 mile long path encircling the lake featuring a rustic wood walk.
Census Bureau figures put the town at an estimated 19,269 residents in 2024, on 26.1 square miles of land in the Greater Bridgeport Planning Region. The town's website says it was incorporated in 1823 and lists Town Hall at 7 Fan Hill Road.
Order ahead, then browse the Bud Bar in person
Online ordering takes orders at any hour. Build a cart on our shop, then collect the pickup order at our counter with your ID. The deals page lists current offers, and each aisle page shows live items from the menu of the store you pick, starting with flower, pre-rolls, vapes and edibles.
Inside, the Bud Bar is a dedicated consultation area where you sit down one on one with a budtender and see products before you choose. At the counter, cash and debit cards pay for an order, and credit cards cannot be used.
Scheduled delivery, booked by slot
Derby schedules delivery to addresses in Monroe; checkout confirms each address. The store takes scheduled orders and not as-soon-as-possible ones, so you pick a delivery slot at checkout, and checkout also shows the order minimum and fee for your address. Our delivery page explains the service.
Our delivery drivers are licensed employees, and we are fully licensed by the DCP. Nobody but the adult who placed the order may accept it, and that adult has to be 21 or older with matching ID. You pay at the door with cash or a debit card.
Nearby towns are on the delivery list too. Trumbull has its own page, as do Shelton and Newtown.
Questions before you order or drive over
Does Hi! People deliver to my address?
Yes, the store takes scheduled delivery orders for covered addresses, and checkout confirms each address. You pick a delivery slot rather than asking for the next available driver. Payment at the door is cash or debit card, and delivery is for adults 21 and older.
Which route do we map to the store?
Our mapped route uses Route 110. The drive is about 10.3 miles by road from the center of town, and it takes about 21 minutes without traffic. If you end up on Route 8, take exit 13A, which is signed for Pershing Drive and Ansonia and is a northbound exit.
Who can accept a delivery order?
Delivery goes only to the adult who placed the order, who must be 21 or older with matching ID. We ask for valid government-issued photo ID at the door, so the person whose name is on the order must be present at the delivery address for the slot you picked. Shopping with us means being an adult 21 or older, because ours is an adult-use cannabis store.
Does the store have an ATM?
Yes. The store has an on-site ATM. Cash and debit cards are what we take, and credit cards cannot be used. Delivery payment at the door is also cash or debit card, so the ATM matters if you plan to pay cash at the counter for a pickup order.
What is the Bud Bar?
The Bud Bar is a dedicated consultation area where you sit down one on one with a budtender. It is toward the back of the showroom and needs no appointment. NBC Connecticut reported on April 2, 2025 that our store is the first in the state with a bud bar using U-shaped display cases.
Can I place an order late at night?
Yes. Online ordering takes orders at any hour, so you can build a cart whenever it suits you. A pickup order is collected at our counter while the store is open, and you can call us at 860-420-BUDS (2837) with a question before you drive over.
