By late November the FDR Boardwalk belongs to joggers and dog walkers, and South Beach settles into its off-season. The Wednesday before Thanksgiving, November 25, is Green Wednesday, a big shopping day for legal cannabis, and QCD's shop on Victory Boulevard in the 10301 ZIP serves South Beach through delivery, order-ahead pickup and walk-in visits. Specific Green Wednesday deals have not been announced; they will be posted in November. Daily deals are running now if you want a feel for the menu.
Father Capodanno to Victory: Your Options
South Beach has no Staten Island Railway stop of its own, so most trips from here start in a car. The usual drive heads north on Hylan Boulevard or Father Capodanno Boulevard toward the Staten Island Expressway, then up Clove Road to Victory Boulevard. On a holiday eve with traffic backing up near the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge approach, delivery is the easy answer, and South Beach addresses are on the delivery map. Order online, choose delivery, and have a 21+ ID ready when it arrives. If you prefer to see the counter yourself, walk in or order ahead and pick up. The store keeps Wednesday hours of 9am to 10pm. Note that the prices on the Staten Island menu are pre-tax figures, so the cannabis tax shows up only when you reach checkout.

Green Wednesday 2026 Deals Are Coming
We haven’t announced our Green Wednesday deals yet. They go live on this page closer to November 25. Both stores run deals every day, so you can start saving now.
The Boardwalk in the Off Season
South Beach was a resort destination around the turn of the twentieth century, when amusement parks and bathing pavilions drew crowds from across the harbor. Today the Franklin D. Roosevelt Boardwalk runs along the shore from near Fort Wadsworth toward Miller Field, the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge frames the view to the north, and Father Capodanno Boulevard carries the pizzerias and delis. Inland, Ocean Breeze Park includes an indoor track and field complex. Thanksgiving week is quieter than summer: the sand is empty, and the mix of rebuilt bungalows, older homes and newer condos fills with visiting family. A cold walk along the boardwalk after the big meal is a local habit worth keeping; cannabis belongs at home, never on the boardwalk or the beach.
A Calm Plan for a Shore House Full of Family
Smaller South Beach homes fill up fast when relatives visit, so storage matters. Keep cannabis products sealed, labeled and out of reach of children, and never mix them into shared holiday dishes. If an adult guest asks to try something, suggest a low-dose option and encourage them to wait before having more. For your own Thanksgiving weekend, a few days of supply ordered ahead beats a rushed trip on Wednesday night. Take a look at the Staten Island store menu early in the week, then check current deals on Staten Island, since the Green Wednesday specials will not be announced until November. Neighbors a little south in Dongan Hills are served from the same store.
About South Beach
South Beach is a waterfront neighborhood on Staten Island's East Shore, best known for the Franklin D. Roosevelt Boardwalk and its long beach facing Lower New York Bay. Father Capodanno Boulevard runs parallel to the shore, and Ocean Breeze Park sits inland. Arrochar and Fort Wadsworth are to the north, Midland Beach to the south, and Hurricane Sandy reshaped many of the blocks closest to the water. More detail is on our South Beach page.
Responsible Use: Cannabis affects everyone differently. Start with a low dose and increase gradually. Must be 21+ to purchase. Quality Control Dispensary products are NYS-licensed and lab-tested.
