Cannabis Dispensary Serving Newport, Maine
Newport calls itself the Crossroads of Maine, and with I-95, US Route 2 and four state routes running through it the name is earned. For our purposes the relevant road is the interstate, which puts you at our Hammond Street counter in about thirty five minutes.
Maine Grown
Everything on our shelves is cultivated in Maine and tested by state licensed laboratories.
Open Seven Days
Walk in any day of the week. No appointment and no medical card required.
Adults 21 and Over
Valid government issued photo ID checked at the door, every customer, every visit.
How Far Is Pho King From Newport?
Around twenty eight miles and roughly thirty four minutes. Interstate 95 northbound out of Newport runs east to Bangor with nothing to slow you down. Come off at Exit 182B, which serves US Route 2 and Route 100 at Hammond Street and Odlin Road, and we are at 1114.
Because Newport sits midway between Bangor and Waterville on the interstate, a good number of our Newport customers are already making the trip east for something else. If that is you, we are one of the first places you reach coming off the highway rather than somewhere buried in the city.
US Route 2 also connects the two towns if you would rather avoid the interstate, following a slower line through the towns in between. Free parking on site, accessible entrance, ID checked at the door.

Why Newport Residents Drive East
Newport is the commercial anchor of the Sebasticook Valley, but it is a small one, and the depth of choice for adult use cannabis is not there. Bangor is the nearest place with a full range, and the interstate makes it an easy thirty five minutes.
At that distance we would rather you came away with something worth the fuel, which means we will be straight with you about what is good this week. Everything we carry is Maine grown and tested by state licensed laboratories, and our budtenders will work through the options with you properly rather than pointing at a shelf.
Ring ahead on (207) 573-4309 if you have something specific in mind. At half an hour each way it is worth two minutes on the phone.
Newport and the Sebasticook Valley
Newport’s defining feature is Sebasticook Lake, which at 4,288 acres is the largest lake contained within a single Maine municipality, and the largest within one town anywhere east of the Mississippi. Unusually, the swimming area and public boat launch sit right in downtown, so the lake is part of daily life rather than something you drive to.
The lake is fed by the East Branch of the Sebasticook River along with Mulligan Stream and Stetson Stream, and the valley around it gives the region its name and much of its character. Newport itself functions as the service centre for the surrounding communities.
Being crossed by the interstate, US Route 2 and routes 7, 11, 100 and 222 means Newport sees a great deal of passing traffic, and a fair share of our Newport trade is people combining a dispensary stop with a run into Bangor for something else entirely.
What Newport Customers Buy
At this range customers buy to last. Flower in larger quantities is the norm, and concentrates and live resin make sense for anyone wanting maximum value in the smallest package.
Edibles and gummies keep well and are popular with Newport customers stocking up. Whether you lean indica, sativa or hybrid, tell us and we will match it. Buying in quantity makes storage matter, so read how to store weed and how long cannabis stays fresh.
