Cannabis cafes could be coming to California

A piece of Amsterdam could be coming to the Golden State.

The State Assembly has overwhelmingly passed a bill that would allow cannabis cafes here in California.

Supporters say it would help struggling cannabis retailers by expanding what they can offer, including coffee, food and live music.

Under this legislation, coffee shops would not be allowed to sell cannabis. However, cannabis shops would be allowed to sell coffee, food, and even offer live music: an idea that many San Diegans are backing.

For Hillcrest resident Stella Salam, combining cafe culture with cannabis culture makes sense.

"Cannabis makes everything better," she told CBS 8. "Live music, coffee... it stimulates the brain and everything."
