A proposed bill would allow for consumption of food and non-alcoholic drinks at California cannabis retailers.
You order a sandwich, a coffee and a marijuana cigarette, then settle in for a musical performance. This could become the future under a bill aimed at changing the landscape of cannabis use in California.
Haney’s bill would also allow cannabis cafes to host live performances and sell tickets to the events. Although the experience is great for the customers, Fontein said, the proceeds go to the restaurant, not her business. “I’ve had a location next door to my dispensary for four years waiting for consumption lounges to be legal in Los Angeles,” said Jerrod Kiloh, who has owned a dispensary called the Higher Path in Sherman Oaks for 10 years.
Even if the state allows lounges to operate more like restaurants or cafes, that’s just one small piece of the puzzle for the legal weed industry. Byers, a cannabis user, said the bill could transform retailers from antiseptic, pharmacy-like locations into community spaces.
