The Original Cannabis Cafe is a welcoming space for those who are cannabis connoisseurs and those who are canna-curious. Our comprehensive Flower Menu offers everything from pre-rolls, flower, small edibles and beverages to premium smoking accessories and all the way up to concentrates for experienced connoisseurs. If you're new to cannabis or haven't consumed in a while, our Flower Hosts will make recommendations and guide your experience. Our cafe offers tourists and locals the opportunity to experience cannabis in a sociable, restaurant-style atmosphere. There hasn’t been anything like this in existence for over 100 years, dating back to pre-prohibition era cannabis tea pads. We’re excited to set the standard on what a US-based cannabis cafe is, and share this rare experience with our like-minded (and inquisitive) cannabis community.
