Over the years, Los Angeles has emerged as a thriving hub for the cannabis industry. From the iconic Venice Beach boardwalk to the trendy neighborhoods of West Hollywood, the city has numerous marijuana shops and regularly hosts weed events and festivals, attracting enthusiasts from around the world.
Recently, the Arts District Cannabis, formerly known as Coast to Coast Cannabis opened its doors to the public. The shop, which boasts an in-house brand, 3C Farms, and a product range of an OG strain from the late 90s, seeks to redefine the cultural and creative hub of Los Angeles.
To help seasoned cannabis connoisseurs and visitors make quality purchase decisions, we listed the most popular stores citywide using Star ratings from Google, which were arrived at by consumer reviews.
