About This Location

Catalyst on King Drive

This is the Catalyst closest to San Francisco, and one of the few that opens at 10am rather than 9am.

It's also upstairs. Suite 200 sits above the Subway on King Drive, which means the first visit involves a staircase and a moment of wondering whether you've got the right building. You have.

Tax is already included. What you see is what you pay, and a Cat 4 sticker means that product cleared our own pesticide panel, wider than the state requires.

The Neighborhood

The store sits at the southern end of Daly City on the Skyline Boulevard ridge, closer to the San Bruno and Pacifica lines than to the middle of town.

Skyline College is about 1.4 miles south and Serramonte Center about 1.5 miles north, so there's a college at one end of the ridge and a mall at the other. Mussel Rock Park and the coast are 1.9 miles northwest.

Further out, Colma BART is 2.4 miles north, Westlake Shopping Center 3.6 miles, and Daly City BART 3.9 miles. SFO sits 5.3 miles southeast down the 280.

The store also serves Pacifica, Colma, South San Francisco, Brisbane, and San Bruno.

Customer Reviews

Catalyst Daly City holds 4.7 stars across 346 Google reviews. Here's what people say once they've found the stairs.

"Location is 5 stars due to how close I am to it. Dispensary staff is for the most part friendly and helpful. Their product selection rivals any other company. The taxes being built in to the price is huge for me and one of the main reasons I keep coming back." - Neekoh. Google Review, June 2026.

"Always good times at Catalyst. The staff is friendly & mellow, helpful, and knowledgeable. It can get backed up in the lobby as you check-in at times, but it moves pretty quickly. Members rewards are a bonus as well, and you can use points towards purchases, which helps when money is tight." - Gerald Broas. Google Review, June 2026.

"My go to spot. They normally have what i'm looking for and they offer frequent discounts. I really like the fact i can order online and specify my pickup time. Very customer friendly and polite staff." - The Dab Lab. Google Review, June 2026.

What We Carry

Here's what's upstairs on King Drive, and what to ask for in each section.

Cannabis Flower

Skywalker OG, Watermelon Z, Pink Acai, and Cherry Zlushie rotate through the King Drive wall, with Coastal Sun and Cannabiotix among the cultivators.

If you're starting from zero, don't fake your way through the strain names. Tell the budtender what you want to spend and what kind of experience you're after, and narrow it from there.

Browse the flower menu.

Pre-Rolls

Pre-rolls skip the grinder and the rolling entirely. Singles and multi-packs are stocked upstairs, plus empty cones if you'd rather pack your own.

Infused ones carry concentrate inside the flower, so they're typically more potent than a standard joint.

See the pre-roll menu.

Vapes and Cartridges

First, settle on compatibility. A 510-thread cartridge screws onto a compatible 510-thread battery, while pods require the matching pod system. An All-in-One comes with a built-in, charged battery.

Cat 4 and Plugplay are in the King Drive case.

See the vape menu.

Concentrates

Concentrates sit in their own case and are sold by the gram. Badder, shatter, and crumble are consistency terms, not quality ratings.

Hardware first, jar second. If you're using a dab pen, say which one. If you've got a rig, tell the budtender before you start comparing grams.

See the concentrate menu.

Edibles

The King Drive edible shelf runs gummies mostly, alongside chocolates, mints, and baked goods.

Start with the serving line on the label, not the package total. Adult-use edibles max out at 10mg THC per serving and 100mg per package, and effects can take up to two hours to arrive.

See the edibles menu.

Topicals and Tinctures

The King Drive topical shelf includes balms, lotions, and patches applied to the skin. Many options are non-intoxicating, but check the label or ask a budtender, because formulations differ.

Tinctures are liquid extracts with measured droppers, so you can portion a specific amount before taking it under the tongue or adding it to a drink.

Browse topicals and tinctures.

Buying Cannabis Legally in California

California has allowed medical cannabis since 1996 and recreational cannabis since voters passed Proposition 64, with licensed sales opening in 2018.

Upstairs on King Drive, the rules are these:

  • Recreational purchases: valid government-issued photo ID, 21 or over. Medicinal purchases from 18: a valid physician's recommendation. A county-issued MMIC also qualifies, but you don't have to hold one.

  • You can buy an ounce of flower, 28.5 grams, plus 8 grams of concentrate in a day. Medicinal patients can reach 8 ounces, or more where the recommendation specifies a higher figure.

  • There's no residency test for recreational purchases, and the limits don't change for visitors. Medicinal is narrower: a California-licensed physician must make the recommendation.

  • Consumption belongs on private property, not on streets, sidewalks, or in parks, and cannabis can't be taken across a state line.

Our guides to California cannabis laws and how to purchase weed in California cover both topics in more detail.

Dispensary in Cannabis Daly City FAQs

We can't wait to welcome you to our dispensary in Cannabis Daly City. As you plan your visit, here are a few helpful things to keep in mind.

1000 King Dr #200, Daly City, CA 94015, on the southern edge of town just off Skyline Boulevard.

Suite 200 is on the second floor, directly above the Subway on King Drive. There's no street-level shopfront, so head for the stairs rather than looking for a window display.

10am, seven days a week, closing at 9:30pm. Daly City opens later than many Catalyst locations, so it's worth checking before an early trip.

Yes, in front of the King Drive building, with on-site security during opening hours.

Yes, Catalyst Daly City is wheelchair accessible.

Not for recreational purchases. Adults 21+ just need a valid government-issued photo ID. Medicinal patients 18+ need a valid physician's recommendation; a county-issued MMIC works too, but it isn't required.

Both. C10-0001231-LIC is an adult-use and medicinal retail license, and everyone shops the same upstairs floor.

State limits are 28.5 grams of flower and 8 grams of concentrate in a day. Medicinal patients can go up to 8 ounces, or more if their recommendation specifies it.

Debit cards or cash, and there's an ATM upstairs. We don't accept credit cards.

No. King Drive is walk-in and order-collection only. Catalyst operates no delivery service anywhere in California and ships nothing.

Yes. Choose your pickup time when you place the order online.

Yes, 10% off the first purchase. Bring valid ID; medicinal shoppers 18 to 20 should also bring their physician's recommendation or MMIC.

Yes, the Catalyst Rewards Club. Points build with every purchase and can be spent against later ones. Free to join upstairs or online.

ID showing you're 21 or over, plus debit or cash. If you're 18 to 20 and buying medicinal, bring your physician's recommendation or your MMIC.

The King Drive shelves carry Astronauts, Coastal Sun, Smoken Promises, California Love, Plugplay, Halfpipe, Muha Meds, Wvy, Casual, Drops, Wyld, Whoa, Dr. Norm's, Buddies, Papa & Barkley, and St. Ides, alongside our own Cat 4 line and whatever exclusives are rotating through.

It's an extra pesticide screen Catalyst runs on top of the state's, built after chemicals turned up in products that had already passed California-required compliance testing. Brands opt in, passing products get a Cat 4 sticker, and anything that fails leaves the shelf whatever its sales figures look like.

Yes. Both shelves carry high-CBD and low-THC options for adults 21+ who'd rather skip the intoxication.

Yes. Choose your pickup time, then build the order on the online menu and collect it upstairs with ID.
