Immersive Art Experience: A Multi-Sensory Wonderland
Sessions By The Bay brings guests into a dreamlike world of creativity with over 10 immersive rooms, each designed for interactive exploration, optical illusions, and sensory indulgence.

From larger-than-life smoking device installations to mind-bending artistic illusions, this isn’t just a cannabis lounge—it’s a playground for the senses. Enjoy a perfectly rolled joint, a sleek vape, or a handcrafted edible while immersing yourself in an artistic wonderland of sights, sounds, and curated fragrances.
Signature Flavors by Chef Jorge Bendesky
At the heart of our culinary program is Executive Chef Jorge Bendesky, a Culinary Institute of America-trained chef renowned for his ability to merge bold flavors with refined technique. As the owner and head chef of Kimball’s Coastal Eatery, Chef Bendesky brings a wealth of expertise to Sessions By The Bay, crafting a dining experience unlike any other in the cannabis industry.
An Elevated Approach to Cannabis Dining
Unlike most cannabis cafés and weed restaurants, our menu is designed to provide guests with complete control over their cannabis experience. Thanks to our water-soluble cannabis infusion options, you can enhance your dish with just the right amount of THC—creating a custom-tailored culinary journey that caters to your personal preferences.
Chef Bendesky’s menu combines locally sourced ingredients, global flavors, and expert culinary techniques to craft dishes that not only stand on their own but also complement the cannabis experience. From beautifully plated entrees to decadent desserts and thoughtfully curated beverages, every aspect of our menu is designed with elevated enjoyment in mind.
A Cannabis Bar Like No Other
Sessions By The Bay is home to one of the most innovative cannabis bars in the country. Unlike traditional weed bars, where infused drinks are pre-mixed, we offer a fully customizable cannabis beverage experience. Guests will receive beautifully crafted non-infused mocktails designed to pair perfectly with our water-soluble cannabis, allowing them to add their desired dosage at their own discretion. This ensures precision, safety, and a completely personalized experience.
Our mixology team specializes in:
-
Premium mocktails featuring fresh herbs, exotic fruits, and carefully balanced flavors.
-
Terpene-inspired beverages designed to complement various strains.
-
Non-infused cocktails for those who prefer an alcohol-free experience.
Whether you’re sipping on a refreshing citrus-infused spritzer or a deep, herbal blend highlighting terpene profiles, every drink is an experience in itself. Our weed bar offers an experience that is refined, social, and immersive—far beyond what you’ll find in any traditional bar setting.
A Social Lounge Designed for Community & Connection
Sessions By The Bay is more than just a cannabis restaurant or weed lounge—it’s a place where people come together to celebrate cannabis, art, and culture. Our Moroccan-inspired space is designed to be both relaxing and engaging, making it the perfect venue for social gatherings, private events, and immersive art experiences.
Whether you’re here for a solo experience, a date night, or a night out with friends, our lounge is built to foster community, creativity, and elevated enjoyment.
