About The Green Cross
The Green Cross is a licensed nonprofit dispensary at 4218 Mission St in SF’s Excelsior, open Mon–Sat 8:30 AM–9 PM and Sun noon–7 PM.
The Green Cross is a licensed dispensary at 4218 Mission Street in San Francisco’s Excelsior District (94112), serving adults 21+ and medical patients. Its California Department of Cannabis Control retail license is C10-0000200-LIC. The store describes itself as a California nonprofit public benefit corporation, and its site dates the operation to 2004.
Hours on its own website are 8:30 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Saturday and noon to 7:00 PM on Sunday. Leafly flags an ATM, wheelchair access and a veteran discount, and lists cash as the payment method.
The menu covers the usual categories:
- flower and pre-rolls;
- concentrates and vape cartridges;
- edibles, tinctures and topicals;
- pipes, vaporizers and other accessories.
On Leafly it holds a 5.0 average from about 370 reviews, and the 2025–2026 comments are consistent: a welcoming room, staff who take time with first-time visitors, and customers being able to see and smell products before buying. Several reviewers name the same budtenders as the reason they return, and one notes the store’s art. We did not find recent complaints on the Leafly pages we read, but the sample is mostly short five-star notes.
Expect cash at the counter (there is an ATM), and bring a valid ID.
