AlyssaThe cannabis scene in Austin, Texas has been elevated with the addition of cannabis boutique and lounge, Cozy Canna. Located on the corner of W 4th and Lavaca, Cozy’s dark brick exterior with neon canna leaf is contrasted by the shop’s bright green and pink interior. Walking into Cozy feels like walking into CannaLand. To the left, a budtender bar with a knowledgeable team ready to help you discover your next favorite flower strain. To the right, a very cozy smoking lounge and extensive boutique featuring a thoughtfully chosen line of hemp-infused wellness items, elegant accessories and canna inspired clothing. Located in the back, a colorful bar with a neon Cozy sign, serving up alcohol-free, canna-infused drinks and packages including an array of smoking experiences.
It still feels quite surreal to enter a canna forward space in Texas, especially in a congested area like downtown Austin with the Capitol located a few streets away. After spending quite a bit of time going through the gorgeous collection of curated items, I was happy to connect with a budtender who walked me through the ideal strain for a chill evening in a crowded space. After I decided on the Apples and Bananas strain, a hybrid indica strain with caryophyllene and limonene terpenes, I could light up in the safety of Cozy’s lounge.
Cannabinoids including CBD and THCA have been legal in Texas since 2018 under the Farm Bill, which legalized hemp and its cannabinoids on a federal level. Since the 2018 Farm Bill, cannabis centric dispensaries, shops and lounges have been opening throughout the state, offering an alternative outlet for people to find healing through plant medicine.
Cozy Canna currently has three locations – Cozy Fourth in Austin, Cozy Georgetown and Cozy Hutto. Cozy Fourth is open Sunday from noon to 10pm, Monday through Wednesday from noon to 9pm, and Thursday through Saturday from noon to midnight.
