Castro Cafe Flore Plots Marijuana Dispensary to Boost Business - Eater SF

"Sunny Castro cafe Flore, a patio dining destination since the ’70s, has made plain its ambitions to become a cannabis-related business: Flore co-owner Terrence Alan has been serving cocktails and beer with CBD for more than a year, testing the waters, and with legalization now in place, he’s sent in an application for a cannabis retail store at 258 Noe (across the street, in what’s now Gloss ‘n Glam). “The Flore Store is a necessary adjunct to the survival of the Flore cafe,” Alan, who chaired the San Francisco Cannabis State Legalization Task Force, tells the Bay Area reporter." - Caleb Pershan
