6 licensed shops open in Kingston right now, ranked on a star rating weighted by how many people actually left one. Lucky Green Ladies leads at 5.0.
A 4.9 from 300 people is a weaker claim than a 4.8 from 7,000, so every rating here is pulled toward the New York average in proportion to how few reviews sit behind it. Both figures are printed on each entry.

268 Forest Hill Dr
Set inside a geodesic dome at the gateway to the Catskills, this shop carries a good range of low-THC and broad-spectrum products for lighter and medicinal users. Staff are educational and down to earth, and customers name the same budtenders again and again for spot-on suggestions. The store is dog friendly.

2223 NY-32
Budtenders here can tell you a strain's lineage and back story, and they match strains to what you need. The shop is clean and locally run, with a good drink selection and gummies some shoppers cannot find anywhere else. Local delivery is quick, and the shop sits on Route 32, serving Kingston, Rosendale and New Paltz.
Open
308 Plaza Rd
Staff treat regulars like family here, answering questions even when you are not buying and keeping the banter friendly. Sales are frequent and the loyalty program keeps people coming back. The plaza location means a close parking spot is easy to find, and a concierge checks ID at the door, so have yours ready.

A star average hides how many people stood behind it. Every rating is shrunk toward the New York mean in proportion to its review count, so a shop needs a high score and real volume to reach the top. The weighted figure sits next to the raw one on every entry.
Every one Google lists as open and licensed under a cannabis category at the time of the last check. Shops that had closed permanently or temporarily are dropped, as is anything that turned up in the search but sits outside New York.
Because we have not read one. Plenty of shops sell only through a third-party ordering platform that publishes nothing on their own domain, and a brand list is not worth guessing at.
Quarterly. Ratings move and shops close, and a list nobody re-checks becomes a directory of places that used to be good.
