cannabis cafe in ED

[woodrot]

Do you ever see the day when there will be a stoner* cafe / bar in ED ? If so, what would be an ideal location ?

Im thinking the NCR would be a decent location for a cafe or two. Maybe the Cherry Treee could be a stoner megacafe ?

* yes,I know, stoners are tiresome wankers, especially the American ones who listen to Bob marley

[Alan Medic]

Would you have to go outside to smoke in this cafe?

[woodrot]

Im thinking soemthing along the amsterdam lines - a sealed smirking room with decent vents and filtration.Sorta like the Bulldog in Amsterdam, but with a proper selction of decent beers & a few pool tables

Of course, a back garden would be a bonus in the summer, so the Mag is probabaly out

I'm not sure I'd want to get stoned with the good people of ED to be honest.

[uncleglen]

A sealed 'smirking' room for when you are stoned wr (lol)? Or is that some sort of pronounciation?

[TillieTrotter]

In Poland there are quite a few bars that you can smoke in or have separate smoking rooms. I assume they need a license for these but it's a better idea than a blanket ban methinks.

[Pickle]

Huge market for it I'm sure, as long as there's a cr?che ;-)

[TillieTrotter]

Ha ha Pickle. :-)

The customers used to openly skin up in the Denman Arms

Fine idea - then the good citizens of ED could all compete over who had the purest, most environmentally friendly/organic, strongest, most refined, hardest to obtain, most expensive shit

- and spend hours staring at Orla Kiely patterns saying "You know, I really CAN see what the fuss is all about"

- and saying how much better it was in the old days when you could key-off a quarter of Moroccan (a bargain at ?7.50 from the bloke with the dodgy porn mags) as easily as crumbling an oxo cube.

mmn, bliss.

hopefully if residents think ED is so great they won't need to resort to drugs to get through their lives.

PM has already scuppered that woodrot. For a man who allegedly likes to 'chillax', I can't believe he's not a fan of the herbal shortcut.

Does anyone remember the appropriately named Green Leaf Cafe on Landor Road Stockwell. Almost just like an original Dam coffee shop.

[Annette Curtain]

Yes Jimmy

Back in the old days/daze I visited there once.

You just ask for a Ribena I was told, so in I went.

"I'd like a Ribena please"

"80p please" and the lady handed me a Ribena.

"NO, i'd like a R-I-B-E-N-A please" I said twitching and nodding, winking, hoping she'd understood.

"Wassa matta wit you, you aks for a RIBENA, I give you a RIBENA, then you aks for RIBENA whilst you got one in y'hand"

Luckily somebody saw my plight and pulled me in the right direction.

I was glad when it closed, to good to be true back in those days, like a mirage of sorts.
