Maritime Cafe

17417 SE McLoughlin Blvd., Gladstone, 305-8307, maritimedispensary.com. Cash only.

Maritime is a family-owned shop that until recently was one of the only dispensaries to offer a "medicating lounge," the equivalent of a humidor at a cigar shop that allowed visitors to go next door and—gasp!—actually smoke the weed they bought. The cafe is shut down as of late August until it can find a new insurer. Its flower game is on point, and one should try the Stacked Kush by High Ridge Farms—a mix of Sleestack and OG Kush that is essentially a decorated Christmas tree of crystals—or the citrusy, sativa-heavy Pandora's Box. A favorite of current guests is a roll-on liniment by Ganja Girl with Arnica and lavender, which they'll refill for $5 if you bring the container back.
