San Jose long limited cannabis to 16 storefronts. City council votes eased the siting rules in 2022 and again in September 2024, both by 10-1, and the ceiling was set to move from 16 to 37 storefronts, San José Spotlight reported. Voters had approved Measure U on November 2, 2010, which lets the city tax marijuana businesses.

Verdex lists 18 entries, 12 with full profiles; the count includes at least one delivery base, so it is not a count of storefronts. CA Collective on Phelan Avenue leads at 9.7, followed by White Fire on Old Tully Road (9.6). The age limit is 21, with an exception from 18 for patients holding a physician's recommendation.

Downtown San Jose has Purple Lotus at 66 West Santa Clara Street, with another at 752 Commercial Street. West San Jose has HAZE on Saratoga Avenue; a second HAZE on Almaden Road is described as a dispensary and delivery base. DELI by Caliva on Pullman Way is a pickup-focused shop, and Theraleaf on Timothy Drive is listed as cash-only in its profile.

Payment: Theraleaf's profile says cash-only, so confirm payment methods before you go.

The limit was 16 storefronts, and San José Spotlight reported that council votes in 2022 and September 2024 eased siting rules and set the ceiling to move to 37.

What tax does San Jose put on cannabis businesses?

Voters approved Measure U on November 2, 2010, allowing the city to tax marijuana businesses. State excise tax and sales tax apply as well, so the receipt is above the menu price.
