Hi! People - Derby
About Hi! People - Derby
On Pershing Drive in Derby, Connecticut, this cannabis store has built a 4.7-star average across 246 reviews on a strong base of friendly door staff, helpful budtenders like Jackson, and a wide product selection. Pricing on the recreational side is a bit higher than some competitors, and Connecticut taxes drive the final total up further, but customers note the operation is otherwise smooth. The store has had recurring issues with card payment machines, so cash or backup ATM access is worth planning around. Hours are 9 AM to 9 PM Monday through Thursday, 9 AM to 10 PM Friday, 9 AM to 9 PM Saturday, and 10 AM to 6 PM Sunday, giving full weekly coverage. ID is strictly enforced even for regulars, including for ATM use inside the store. For Derby and Naugatuck Valley shoppers who want a well-stocked Connecticut dispensary with friendly staff and broad weekly hours, Hi! People is a reasonable default if you can plan around the payment quirks.

Customer Reviews
Really dope place! Love everyone in there. Very welcoming , informative , helpful and down to earth
Great staff and plenty of options. Definitely recommend Jackson for solutions to your needs! Only downside is the constant dropping of their machines and either having to make sure you have cash or have to use their atm inside.
I've been going here at least once a week pretty much since they opened, so they know who i am. The one day I lose my ID, they say unfortunately you cant get anything due to no ID which I totally understand. But the fact that I was denied using the atm because of not having an ID is one of the most absurd things I've ever heard. Thanks for giving me that treatment even though I've spent over a thousand dollars there. What a joke
Went for the first time after frequenting Affinity in Bridgeport and New Haven and I'll be going to Hi People instead from now on. The employees were so sweet and it's such a cute spot! 10/10
Prices are a bit on the high side for recreational. The taxes are high but that's not their fault. The door greeter was so sweet. We talked for a good 5 minutes. The bud tender was informative but not the best at math. We wanted a $25 eighth and didn't want to go above $30. He kept suggesting the ones for $30 and then forgetting the tax which brings it above our $30 max. I guess that's what the cash registers are for but you should at least be able to do some form of mental math. Other than that the place is nice and the pizza restaurant (The Italian Pavilion) is back open as a little take out joint out back. Spend $50 in Hi! People and get a free small or show your receipt and get a $10 large cheese. Only for a limited time to celebrate the grand opening. This may not be relevant in a few months.
