Portland Opens First U.S. Marijuana Cafe CheapOair Staff November 16, 2009 general The city of Portland, Oregon is about to become much more pot-friendly Walk by a certain café in the city of Portland, Oregon and you might come down with a serious case of the munchies. That is because as of Friday the 13th, Stumptown’s adult club Cafe Rumpspankers (catchy name) will now be known as the Cannabis Café. The new name fits the new theme, as this will in fact be the very first marijuana café to open in the United States. Now before you go and cancel your holiday plans to visit Grandma’s house and book a trip to Portland, remember that this is for certified medical marijuana users only. Despite a federal ban, the Cannabis Café will be a place to get hold of the drug “legally” and smoke it – but just not in public. Members of this “high-society” café must bring with them a medical marijuana card and fork over $25 each month in order to use its facility. Purchases will not be made here, but instead “budtenders” will hand out marijuana between 10am and 10pm each day. Although there will be food served at the pot-friendly hangout, you must go elsewhere if you plan to have a few adult beverages, as the Cannabis Café does not serve alcohol.
