Best Dispensaries Near the Las Vegas Strip

Which Strip dispensary actually has the best prices? We compared them all — ranked by value, not by who paid for placement.

March 11, 2026

Strip Dispensary Overview

There are roughly a dozen dispensaries within a short Uber ride of the Las Vegas Strip. They range from massive entertainment destinations to small neighborhood shops that happen to be nearby. Prices vary dramatically — the same product can cost 40–60% more at one shop versus another just two miles away.

We track every one of these dispensaries daily. Here's how they stack up on actual deal quality, not marketing.

The Strip dispensary landscape is dominated by a handful of major operators — Curaleaf, Planet 13, and Green Thumb Industries (Rise/Zen Leaf) among them. These multi-state operators (MSOs) bring national supply chain advantages but also corporate overhead. Independent dispensaries near the Strip compete by being more agile with pricing and more responsive to local demand.

The Top Contenders

Planet 13 on Desert Inn Road is the most-visited dispensary in Las Vegas. House brand specials are consistently competitive, and the experience is worth seeing at least once. Curaleaf Strip on Las Vegas Blvd runs frequent BOGO promotions and is walkable from most major hotels.

Oasis Cannabis on Industrial Road, near the Wynn, is known for strong concentrate and flower specials. The Grove on Swenson Street attracts convention and UNLV traffic with a clean, modern shop and reliable daily deals.

Thrive on Sammy Davis Jr Drive sits just west of the Strip and offers locals-adjacent pricing to an area otherwise dominated by tourist-facing shops. Cultivate on Spring Mountain draws a mixed crowd of Strip visitors and locals, with particularly strong vape and pre-roll promotions. Each of these dispensaries brings a different pricing strategy to the table — no single shop wins every day.

Walkability and Transportation

Walkability matters in Las Vegas — especially in summer when sidewalk temperatures can exceed 110°F. Curaleaf Strip is the most walkable option, sitting directly on Las Vegas Blvd. From most major hotels (Bellagio, Aria, Cosmopolitan, MGM Grand), it's a 10–20 minute walk depending on direction.

Planet 13 requires transportation from the Strip — it's about 2 miles west on Desert Inn Road. An Uber or Lyft typically costs $8–$15 from the center of the Strip. Oasis Cannabis is on Industrial Road, reachable by a short Uber or a 15-minute walk from the Wynn/Encore area.

For visitors without a car, the cost of transportation should factor into your deal comparison. A $12 round-trip Uber to Planet 13 means you need to save at least $12 on your purchase to break even versus walking to Curaleaf. On most days, Planet 13's house brand specials more than cover that gap — but always check CloudedDeals to confirm before booking the ride.

Product Selection Differences

Not all Strip dispensaries carry the same brands. Planet 13 has the widest selection thanks to its massive retail floor — you'll find everything from budget house brands to limited-edition premium drops. Curaleaf carries its own branded products prominently (Select, Grassroots) alongside third-party offerings.

Oasis Cannabis tends to carry a curated selection focused on quality over quantity. The Grove emphasizes a clean, approachable product lineup aimed at convention-goers who may not be regular cannabis consumers.

If you're looking for a specific brand, check the dispensary's online menu before making the trip. CloudedDeals shows which dispensaries have deals on which products, making it easy to find exactly what you want at the best price without driving to multiple shops.

When to Go Off-Strip Instead

If you have a car or don't mind a 10-minute Uber, off-strip dispensaries almost always offer lower base prices. The Dispensary on Gibson Road and Deep Roots Harvest on Cheyenne regularly undercut Strip pricing by 20–30%.

The math is simple: if a $12 Uber each way saves you $30+ on your purchase, it's the easiest decision of the trip. For groups buying together, the savings multiply.

The best hybrid strategy: visit a Strip dispensary for the experience (Planet 13 is worth seeing), make a small purchase of something unique to that shop, then do your main shopping at an off-strip location where the base prices are lower. You get the experience and the savings — the best of both worlds.

Strip Dispensary Hours

Most Strip-area dispensaries operate on extended hours to capture tourist traffic. Typical hours run from 8 AM or 9 AM through midnight, with some locations staying open until 1 AM or later on weekends. Planet 13 operates from 9 AM to midnight daily.

For the best shopping experience, aim for morning hours (9 AM–noon). Lines are shortest, inventory is fully stocked from the daily restocking cycle, and budtenders have more time to answer questions. The 4 PM–8 PM window is the busiest period at most Strip dispensaries — expect longer waits and more competition for limited-quantity specials.

Late-night shopping (after 10 PM) is convenient but comes with caveats: some daily specials may be sold out, and staffing is lighter so service can be slower. If your plan is to shop late, check online availability first or call ahead to confirm the deal you want is still active.

How to Choose

Check CloudedDeals the morning of your visit. The best Strip dispensary changes daily based on which specials are running. Yesterday's best deal might be at Planet 13; today it might be at Oasis or Curaleaf.

If you're visiting for the experience, go to Planet 13. If you want the best price within walking distance of the Strip, check which shop has the highest-scored deal today. If you're willing to Uber, expand your search to the full valley — the savings are almost always worth it.

For convention visitors on a tight schedule: identify one dispensary with a strong deal on CloudedDeals, make a focused trip during a break, and skip the comparison shopping. The time savings are worth more than the marginal price difference between the second and third-best deal of the day.
