Located just a few blocks off of the iconic Pacific Coast Highway, and mere minutes from multiple beautiful beaches, in the utterly coastal Cali city of Santa Cruz, you’ll find the flagship location of CannaCruz cannabis dispensaries tucked comfortably on the corner of Encinal and Limekiln streets.
Something about the can’t-miss vibrant two-tone logo on the storefront transcends those common colors found in the cannabis plant and conjures up nostalgia for a 90s skate and surf scene that Santa Cruz was certainly known for.
Santa Cruz has always been known to have dank weed, too, and CannaCruz keeps that tradition alive as a community-rooted and family owned and operated cannabis dispensary that has been providing Cali’s best cannabis since 2014.
While there are two dedicated handicapped parking spaces right out front, most customers will need to find streetside parking in the surrounding neighborhood which is usually a breeze.
Stepping inside the shop, you’re met with the same vibe that tingled your senses from the curb, with lighting, display styles, and customer flow all working in harmony to make a space that really isn’t that big feel limitless.
The old school weed slangin’ mentality shines through on every interaction with staff members at CannaCruz since they, like you, love the plant and the culture. From dank science to daily specials, the crew at CannaCruz just adds to the positive experience.
The menu at CannaCruz in Santa Cruz is a who’s-who of award-winning top shelf brands like Fig Farms, Oakfruitland, UpNorth Humboldt, Clout King, and plenty more that you can find us puffing on. Don’t sleep on their in-house flower, either! Their motto of “Cultivating a Higher Standard” is what ties the grow room and the sales room and their overall ethos together.
You probably noticed that an 1/8th of Fig Farms flower is listed at just $49.99 – that’s your retail price OUT THE DOOR with taxes already included on ALL TOP SHELF WEED. $50 eighths is about as old school as it gets.
We are also proud to announce that CannaCruz in Santa Cruz is now carrying award-winning Beard Bros Pharms men’s wellness cannabis products to help put you on a path to optimal wellness through better sleep, less inflammation, more mobility, a regulated appetite and diet, and more motivational benefits.
The $50 8ths are an everyday thang at CannaCruz, but they have rotating specials on top of that, too, which can save you 30-40% off of best-selling brands and products.
