Velvet's Dispensary & Smoke Shop
About Velvet's Dispensary & Smoke Shop
Located at 2517 Pennsylvania Ave NW in Northwest Washington, Velvet's holds a 4.6-star average across 404 reviews. Customer feedback splits clearly: many shoppers praise the prices, service, and convenience for the Foggy Bottom area, while a handful flag product authenticity concerns specifically around prefilled carts, with one reviewer alleging a fake California Honey product. Flower products generally receive more positive feedback, with eighths in the $55 range described as authentic and potent. The atmosphere is described as straightforward rather than polished, which suits some customers and not others. Hours run 8 AM to 11:30 PM daily, which gives one of the widest schedules in the DC dispensary scene, particularly the late-night window. The combination of a high-traffic Pennsylvania Avenue location, long daily hours, and split product feedback means knowing what you want before walking in helps. For flower buyers in Foggy Bottom wanting convenience and reasonable prices, Velvet's is functional. Vet carts carefully.

Customer Reviews
Great prices and great service! Check out if you’re in the area
I was in a pinch and needed some flower. Velvet was close, so I checked ‘em out. Wasn’t impressed with the aesthetic of the shop and that’s cool with me. I’m here for the weed… I picked up two 55 dollar eighths: one Lemon Sherbet and one Black Mamba. The former is an intense Sativa hybrid that hits your lungs with an authoritative lock if you’re not careful, but if you can master the draw, you’re in for a good smoke and a heady high. The latter is a deep Indica known for its knock-your-dick-in-the-dirt potency. We’re talking snack time… Sleepy time… Got ‘em both right here at Velvet. It’s Za! Dig it… Why do punks today need to be pampered when they buy their 110 dollar eighths at their favorite fancy-pants dispensary? Velvet came through in the clutch with some good flower. Thanks, guys!
Horrible. Absolutely horrible. They sell fake everything and the cannabis is all delta 8. I had some tested and it is not THC. They also up charge their nicotine vapes by a significant amount of $. They also beg you to give them 5 star reviews so they look good. They even won’t answer questions on the phone inquiring what you want and tell you to just come in the store to get what you’re looking for that way they can persuade you to buy an alternative. Do not go here. Go to Georgetown Wellness dispensary right around the corner if you want real, quality cannabis. Also go to Havana on M St if you want real quality nicotine products. Avoid this store at all costs. Whoever gave this place 5 stars is out of their mind.
If you want the real, don’t buy from here. Sold me a Fake prefilled California Honey 1g Cart. Tasted like vape juice and knew instantly. After researching the real company. They do not even have these carts. These are bought online empty then prefilled. Go legit or stop lying to people.
Eddie is so personable and helpful! Highly reccomend Velvets and they have lots of products!
