Florida had 757 active dispensaries statewide as of the OMMU weekly update of April 17, 2026. Miami-Dade alone hosts 40–55 depending on how border facilities are counted. Verify current locations via OMMU's MMTC search.
By counting Trulieve, Curaleaf, MÜV, Sunburn, The Flowery, Surterra, VidaCann, Sanctuary, RISE, Liberty Health Sciences, Fluent (Cansortium), GrowHealthy, Ayr, Goodblend, and Jungle Boys storefronts plus drive-thru and delivery hubs, Miami-Dade sits well into the 40-to-55 dispensary range depending on how border facilities (Pembroke Pines, Hallandale, Hollywood) are counted.
OMMU has not published a county-level dispensary count in any of its weekly highlights through April 2026; ⚠️ this number changes every week as new locations open. The figure on this page is reconciled monthly against operator websites.
Geographic Distribution
Miami-Dade dispensary clusters track residential density and zoning permissiveness:
- Miami Beach / South Beach — At least 4 storefronts on or near 5th Street and Alton Road. Trulieve, Curaleaf, Sunburn, Surterra, Jungle Boys.
- Brickell / Downtown — Limited direct storefronts due to municipal zoning, but heavy delivery service.
- Wynwood / Edgewater — Moderate presence.
- Coral Gables / Coconut Grove — Several storefronts; affluent, professional patient base.
- Aventura / North Miami Beach / Bal Harbour — Cluster along Biscayne Blvd. — the so-called “Green Mile” between NE 105th and NE 125th Streets.
- Doral — Cluster near MIA serving the Venezuelan diaspora.
- Kendall / South Miami / Pinecrest — Heavy suburban density along Kendall Drive (SW 88th Street) and US-1.
- Cutler Bay / Palmetto Bay / Homestead / Florida City — Southern gateway dispensaries serving Keys-bound traffic.
- Hialeah / Miami Springs — Surprisingly limited given population — Hialeah’s heavily Cuban-American electorate has been politically skeptical of cannabis.
- Miami Gardens / Opa-locka / Carol City — As of 2025, only one MMTC operates within Miami Gardens city limits; nearby Trulieve and Curaleaf serve the area.
What to Expect on a First MMTC Visit
First-time Miami-Dade MMTC visits follow a consistent pattern across operators:
- Check-in at reception with MMUR card and government photo ID. The MMTC queries OMMU MMUR in real time to verify allocation.
- Patient consultation room — bilingual budtenders are standard at major Miami-Dade locations. Spanish-language access.
- Product menu walkthrough — flower, vape, edibles, capsules, tinctures, suppositories, topicals. New patients typically work with the budtender on a starting plan.
- Cash payment, debit-routed-as-cash, or in-store ATM. Major card networks (Visa, MasterCard, Discover) prohibit cannabis purchases. Some MMTCs accept ACH or proprietary “cashless ATM” debit-routing.
- Discreet packaging — sealed, labeled, branded. Patients receive an itemized receipt.
Pricing — Miami-Dade Patterns
Prices in Miami-Dade are competitive across the major operators, with operator-specific promotions running constantly. Indicative starting points (April 2026, before promotions and discounts):
- 1/8 oz (3.5 g) flower: $25–$45 at major operators
- 1/4 oz (7 g) flower: $45–$80
- 1 oz (28 g) flower: $150–$280
- 0.5 g vape cartridge: $30–$55
- 1 g vape cartridge: $50–$90
- Edible package (100 mg total THC): $20–$35
- Tincture (300 mg THC): $35–$55
Promo discounts are heavy. Curaleaf offers 20% veteran and 40% pediatric. Trulieve offers first-time-patient discounts. The Flowery’s first delivery is free for new patients. Sunburn runs a tiered “Buy More Save More” structure.
Same-Day Delivery
Every major operator offers same-day or next-day delivery within Miami-Dade, with $50–$100 minimum orders typical. See the delivery page.
Hours and Holidays
Most Miami-Dade MMTCs operate 9 a.m.–9 p.m. Monday–Saturday, 10 a.m.–7 p.m. Sunday, with variation by location. Major holidays vary by operator. The day before Thanksgiving and the day before any National Hurricane Center cone of uncertainty are typically the highest-volume sales days of the year in Miami-Dade.
Federal Banking Reality
Florida MMTCs operate cash-heavily because federal banking law (FinCEN cannabis guidance) bars most banks from extending normal services to cannabis-touching businesses without enhanced reporting. State-chartered Florida banks and credit unions provide some MMTC banking, but MMTCs still maintain sizable cash floats. This affects patient experience — on-site ATMs, occasional cashless-ATM debit-routing, no Visa/MasterCard at most locations.
