For Potheads Who 
Are Feeling Pious Swade Cannabis, multiple locations including 6166 Delmar Boulevard Maybe you find consuming cannabis to be akin to a sacred act, or maybe you're just feeling nostalgic for the days when you'd sneak away from your parents' side at mass to smoke weed with the window cracked in the church's bathroom — whatever the case may be, Swade's Delmar location has got you covered. The Loop dispensary is housed in a renovated church building, making it one of the more unique places to purchase weed in the area. That seems to be part of a larger trend for Swade, whose flagship Grove location — itself a beautiful space, if not quite as holy — was named by Architectural Digest as one of the country's 12 Most Stylish Dispensaries in 2021. In addition to its friendly and helpful budtenders, Swade also has a touchscreen display on its sales floor through which you can peruse its menu in peace before deciding what to purchase. To that we say a hearty "amen." Swade is open 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Check out their full menu at swadecannabis.com.
