The Story of Offlimits Coffee and Dankville
Collaboration has been a key factor in the growth and success of The Dankville. One of the most significant partnerships has been with my friend, Mayank Gupta. Together, we co-founded Offlimits Coffee, India’s first café dedicated to cannabis enthusiasts. This venture marked a significant milestone in our entrepreneurial journey, combining our passion for Hemp with a love for coffee.

The idea for Offlimits Coffee came from our shared vision of creating a space where like-minded individuals could come together, enjoy a great cup of coffee, and share their love for Hemp. The café quickly became a hub for the community, offering a unique blend of high-quality coffee and a welcoming atmosphere.
The journey of building Offlimits Coffee with Mayank has been filled with learning and growth. However, it was not without its challenges. I faced financial hardships, going bankrupt twice during the process. These experiences were incredibly tough and tested my resolve. But the setbacks also provided invaluable lessons in perseverance and strategic thinking.
Through these trials, our vision for Offlimits Coffee remained clear. We wanted to create a space that reflected the ethos of The Dankville – promoting a functional stoner lifestyle, fostering community, and advocating for cannabis legalization. The café’s success has been a testament to the power of collaboration and resilience.
The experiences and insights gained from running the café have informed our approach to The Dankville, helping us better understand our audience and refine our offerings. As we continue to rebuild and expand The Dankville, the lessons from Offlimits Coffee remain invaluable. Our vision for The Dankville is to create a comprehensive platform that educates, advocates, and unites cannabis enthusiasts across India. From the initial spark of an idea to the thriving community we have today, this journey has been about more than just business. It’s about fostering connections, advocating for change, and celebrating the cannabis lifestyle in all its forms.
