Choosing an edible in Long Island City comes down to three questions in order: how strong do you want the dose (2.5mg, 5mg, or 10mg per piece), how fast do you need onset (gummies and chocolates run 45 to 90 minutes, beverages and sublinguals 20 to 40), and what you want to spend (roughly $15 to $25 for a 100mg gummy pack, $20 to $40 for craft chocolates or seltzers). Terp Bros NYC routes same-day edibles into 11101 and 11109 from the Astoria store at 36-10 Ditmars Blvd, free over $100, order by 9pm. Walk that decision tree below, then open the menu and filter.

This is a buyer guide, not a sales pitch. The Hunters Point and Court Square towers brought a wave of first-time legal buyers who reach a counter or a delivery driver with one real question: which one do I pick. The steps below answer that for someone standing in a high-rise lobby on Center Boulevard, not for a connoisseur who already knows their brand.
Dose is the single decision that matters most. Pieces at Terp Bros run from 2.5mg micro-doses up to 10mg, with 100mg total in most gummy and chocolate packages. If you are new to legal edibles, start at 2.5mg or 5mg per piece; if you consume regularly, 10mg per piece is the standard ceiling for a single serving in New York.
Use this as a ladder, not a guess:
The hard rule the budtenders repeat to LIC first-timers: wait a full 90 minutes before a second piece. Onset runs through the liver, so nothing felt at the one-hour mark is normal, not a reason to re-dose. More milligrams does not mean a better night; it usually means a more intense one.
Format decides how fast the dose arrives and how it feels. Gummies and chocolates metabolize through the liver and take 45 to 90 minutes; beverages and sublingual tablets absorb partly through the mouth and stomach lining and can register in 20 to 40 minutes. Pick by how much patience you have, not by flavor alone.
| If you want | Choose | Onset |
|---|---|---|
| The classic, portion-controlled option | Gummies | 45 to 90 min |
| A richer, slower experience | Chocolates | 45 to 90 min |
| Something discreet and faster | Seltzers / beverages | 20 to 40 min |
| The fastest, most measurable onset | Sublingual tablets / mints | 20 to 40 min |
For a Hunters Point waterfront evening, beverages like the seltzers that move well off our shelf land between 2mg and 10mg and suit a slow sunset walk without committing to a long-tail edible. For a stay-in night in a Court Square tower, gummies or chocolates are the standard. Sublinguals are the pick for anyone who wants the tightest control over timing.
Filter the menu by effect tag, not by THC number. Indica-leaning edibles lean toward relaxation and sleep, sativa-leaning toward daytime and uplift, and balanced hybrids toward anytime use. Higher-CBD ratios soften the THC effect for shoppers who want something gentler.
The rotation covers gummies, chocolates, mints, hard candies, cannabis beverages, and sublingual tablets across indica, sativa, hybrid, and higher-CBD profiles. If your plan is a movie and an early night, you want a Sleep or Relax tag. If the plan is a daytime loop through MoMA PS1 and the Vernon Boulevard restaurant strip, an Uplift or Focus tag fits better. Tell the budtender the plan and they match the SKU; that produces a closer match than asking for a brand name.
Long Island City edibles pricing runs roughly $15 to $25 for a 100mg gummy pack and $20 to $40 for craft chocolates and beverages. Price tracks format and cultivator, not potency alone, a 100mg gummy pack and a single-serve seltzer can cost the same. First-time customers get a welcome discount applied at checkout.
Prices shift weekly with batch availability, and the menu shows live numbers. If you are price-anchoring, gummy multipacks give the lowest cost per milligram; craft chocolates and beverages cost more per serving. Terp Perks members unlock daily deals and priority alerts on limited drops. For delivery you prepay through Dutchie Pay; in store you pay cash or debit. Credit cards are not accepted, in store or at the door, because of federal banking rules.
A first-time Long Island City buyer should land on a 2.5mg to 5mg gummy or a low-dose seltzer, filtered to Relax, around $15 to $25. An experienced buyer who wants a specific effect should filter to 10mg pieces in their preferred profile and check the batch lab report before adding to cart.
Whichever profile fits, every product is from a New York licensed operator, every batch is lab-tested under NY OCM standards, and every delivery or in-store sale is 21+ with a valid government-issued ID.
All Long Island City edibles orders dispatch from the Astoria store at 36-10 Ditmars Blvd into 11101 and 11109, Hunters Point, Court Square, Queensbridge, Dutch Kills, and Blissville. Delivery is same-day Queens-wide, free over $100, with a 9pm cutoff and prepay through Dutchie Pay. In-store pickup runs 8am to 10pm, 11pm Thursday through Saturday.
Drivers know the common Long Island City drops, doorman lobbies along Center Boulevard, the Vernon Boulevard and 50th Avenue corner, Jackson Avenue and 21st Street, and meet you in the lobby on request. To skip the wait, pickup orders are usually ready in 15 to 30 minutes; ride the 7 to Vernon-Jackson or Court Square, the E/M/R to Queens Plaza, or the F to 21st St-Queensbridge, then transfer toward the N/W at Queensboro Plaza for the three-stop run to Ditmars Boulevard, one block from the door. Full zone details are on the cannabis delivery page and the Long Island City delivery page.
These pages cover the full edibles catalog, the Long Island City delivery zone, the dispatching Astoria store, and the borough-wide delivery hub.
The questions cluster around dose, onset, payment, and returns. Answers are short and verifiable against the batch Certificate of Analysis and NY OCM retail rules.
*I felt nothing after an hour, should I take more?* No. Onset runs 45 to 90 minutes for gummies and chocolates. Wait the full 90 minutes before considering a second piece. Re-dosing early is the most common first-timer mistake.
Which format kicks in fastest? Beverages and sublingual tablets, roughly 20 to 40 minutes, because of the absorption path. Gummies and chocolates are slower.
Can I pay at the door? No. Delivery is prepay through Dutchie Pay before dispatch. In store, you pay cash or debit. No credit cards anywhere, by federal banking rule.
Can I see the lab report before I buy? Yes. Each SKU on the menu links its batch Certificate of Analysis, showing cannabinoid percentages, terpene breakdown, and pesticide, heavy-metal, and solvent screens.
Can I return an edible I did not like? No returns on opened cannabis product under OCM rules. If a sealed item is defective, contact the store within 48 hours with the batch number.
