The Comic Releaf
About The Comic Releaf
Set on 6th Street in downtown Austin, this shop pairs THCA products with a small lounge area where customers can sit, smoke, and play games. The store pulls a 4.9-star rating from 42 reviews and earns repeat praise for its welcoming atmosphere, knowledgeable budtenders, and reasonable membership pricing. A $5 cover charge gets you into the lounge, which has laminate floors, upholstered seating, and a couple of board games. The setup feels more like a friend's living room than a typical dispensary. Open until midnight Thursday through Saturday and 10pm the rest of the week, the shop draws both locals and travelers killing time before flights. The 421 E 6th St location puts it within walking distance of most downtown bars and restaurants. Reviewers single out specific budtenders and mention leaving with new product recommendations they actually wanted to try. The lounge fee is modest enough that visitors with delayed flights or downtown layovers can comfortably hang out for an hour or two while chatting with other regulars.

Customer Reviews
loved this spot! amazing crew. great vibes and amazing stuff
This was the chillest place in Austin. Very reasonable prices to join and purchase products. Just as importantly, this is a very nice lounge. You can sit and chill and smoke as long as you wish. They have a couple games which was nice. Laminate floors and nice upholstered furniture keep the lingering smoke smell minimal. Our bud tender, Courtney, was a joy to hang out with and gave us some cool places to check out in town. I felt like I was back in my college days chilling at a friend's living room for a smoke session. It was lovely. Highly recommend.
Comic Relief is an amazing place! The service is excellent — everyone is super friendly and welcoming. It’s such a special spot to hang out, with great music, a cozy atmosphere, and beautiful decor. Everything about it feels unique and full of good vibes. Highly recommended!
High-quality THCA products and the staff was very helpful and personable. Hung out in the lounge for a small 5$ cover charge for nearly 2 hours since my flight was delayed. All the other locals that came in were super chill as well. Felt like hanging out with some new friends.
I stopped by The Comic Releaf on 6th Street looking for a pre-roll as a gift for a friend. When I asked about the strain and where the flower was sourced, the staff member couldn’t provide any answers—claiming they were under an NDA. That’s a red flag for me. If you’re charging premium prices, you should be able to speak confidently about the product. Transparency matters, especially in this industry. Overall, the experience felt like a joke…a “comic releaf” if you will.
