Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Part cannabis dispensary, part living room. This shop on Thanon Pattaya Tai Street is both a meeting place and a social hub, so you're not rushed to leave after making a purchase. That's the difference between this shop and the dozens of small, self-service cannabis shops that have opened in Pattaya since the law changed. Here, you can sit, chat, and take your time.

It's better suited for solo travelers than most other places. If you're new to the city and looking for a quiet spot to strike up a conversation, this is the place for you. If you just want to quickly buy something and leave, that's fine too, but you'll be paying for a space you're not using. Come in the afternoon if you prefer peace and quiet. In the evening, it gets crowded and the social scene begins.

Thai cannabis regulations have changed several times in recent years, and what is permitted for tourists does not always correspond to common assumptions. Therefore, be sure to check the current regulations before making any plans.
