My ex was dutch and I've been there too many times to remember, 420 cafe mate it's got boom bud and its not as loud and cheesy as most of them, used to be cat that always attacked me, probably it's dead now, but yeah 420 cafe for me cant beat it, it used to be a pub, sitting at the bar with their bong is where you wanna be , also I forget the name but get a train to Rotterdam head for the bilderberg hotel , has no seats but the smoke is next level , plus it's good to get out of Amsterdam Rotterdam in my opinion is a better city just not as many coffee shops

Awesome recommendation! However bear in mind they have 2 shops. I would recommend visiting the original one on Singel, previously known as the Dutch Flowers. All product is the same, but the shop itself is in a quieter area and a much nicer place to sit and enjoy your smokes! It's been a family favourite for 3 generations now!

I always liked Maastricht more than Amsterdam, a lot of the coffee shops are on barges and it's a nice city to explore without being bothered by street level dodgy boiis. Have a great trip OP and if you like chocolate milk then deffo get yourself some Chocomel (it's in a yellow bottle/can and it's the tits).

Is it a decent town mate? Desperate to go back but wouldn't go to Dam again. Had a look at Utrecht but Maastricht was always a bit of an ambition in those 3 trips a year days!

Lovely town mate. Less hubbub and close to other cool towns, especially Liege!

Yeah wouldn't mind a wander over the border either. Cheers matey definitely interested will bear it in mind

Green place, grey area etc but i love Kadinskys

Love Kandinskys too, the best NYC Diesel I ever smoked was from there.

+1 this. Always used to buy the 5g deals of it and it was the best smoke ever. Sadly not seen it for a couple of years on my many visits now :( so i think they must have lost that supply sadly.

Cant beat the 5g deal at Kandinskys :)

Agreed mate! Had a true Strawberry Haze there too which was different to seed versions commonly available. Claimed to be 100% sativa (cant confirm or refute the genetics ) but fuck me i walked out with eyes lile id be on disco biscuits lol and set me up for a great afternoon walk ill tell you that. Best thing about Kadinskys is that great window open wide, just watching the world go by. Spent many an hour in that window as a solo smoker and is awesome for some people watching where you see some very interesting lol things
BH

That sounds like an awesome Amsterdam moment, there’s some special stuff to be found in the right places. I bet those Dutch growers have some amazing cuts.
But oh man, those window seats are the best, reading that took me back there for a moment... ahh, good times, can’t wait for summer.

Batman, Silver Bubble and Lemon Tangie are really good from Green Place.

Kadinsky Coffeeshop Rosmarijnsteeg

I'm new to this site, found it because I haven't been able to get any smoke for nearly a year. A while back I took a day trip to Amsterdam simply because I was suffering badly. I done my homework before going, the place that all the locals use is a shop called Boerejongens. It isn't a cafe as you can't sit and smoke your weed in the shop. It has a stocked range of high grade cannabis and has a wide selection of Amsterdam genetic weed. I went to a few places, but Boerejongens was a grade above.

Grey Area for methe buds are 10/10

oh and FIND Kashmir Lounge. Just do it..

Haven't been for about 10 years after being an every couple of month visitor. My all time go-to has always been Grey Area - in Singel. Can be a mission to find but for me the original standard for what was in Dam. Green Place has also been mentioned is a chill and good menu (think I recall Batman @ €22!!!!!) not like the old days of €20 for a 3.5...Abraxas I love, and get into Spuistraat some nice little places there inc. Kadinsky. Enjoy.

Like!

Here are a couple of impressions from my Amsterdam trip. Maybe they will be of help.to future travelers.

Kadinsky - cozy atmosphere, lovely view out of the front windows, sits at the front windows. "Big Buddha Cheese", "AK47" and "Gelato" - all had a nice quality to them and were easy and enjoyable to smoke. The chosen music was not always to my taste, but they also played some nice jazzy or soul tracks. I also tried the space cake there - it really glued me down to the sit. All in all it was my favourite

Easy Times - clublike atmosphere, even with a DJ, the stuff seemed stressed and it was really crowded. I couldnt really harmonize with the vibes of the place. They have a good selection of weed. "Tangerine cookies" - really nice smoke!

1ehulp - orientally stylized. Was full, when I came the first day. On the second day I got in. There are three levels and a couple of small alcoves... For me the place felt a kind of narrow, but it might have been the effect of the herbs... "Gorilla Skittlez"... Bought and rolled, hadnt tried, yet. They have moon rocks. But you have to walk a bit to get there.

Paradox - it felt like a student coffee shop (not in a bad way) The prices are cheaper compared to other places. The stuff is nice and friendly. It was the coffee shop with the most light...
And I was told that they are famous for their space cake (1gr in each slice). I got some, but hadnt tried it yet.

Hans Brinker Hostel - cheaper way to spend the night in a bed than in a hotel. Breakfast is included and was good.
They have a bar and a club. The rooms have been clean. I think especially for groups who can book a whole room with 6 or 8 beds for themselves it is a good place to stay.

Thanks for.all the advices! Cheers to everybody! :-)

Borenjongens is the number 1 without a doubt mate

I had the opportunity to smoke some excellent local stuff from Grey Area as well as fire Jungle Boy's materials at the Green Place.
1e HULP always got quality hash and buds, too.

Grey area was good it’s small and gets super busy and we happened upon a cafe called flower power, we brought these chocolate Bon Bons they were so thick and chocolaty but when you opened them up they were bright green, the guy who sold it to us was like just eat half, don’t eat a whole one and see how you get on. Me in my infinite wisdom thought fuck that I will be fine and ate the whole thing and woke up the next morning with recollection of the night before, my wife said I’d just passed out. Twat on tour but there we go I got excited I’d never been to Amsterdam before. Have a fucking awesome time.

Haha :-) I will be carefull with the amount of chocolate bonbons I eat. Dont wont to completely pass out somewhere...

The grey area is good but I love the stud and Ibiza they bit out of the way but so worth it. The stud dose €5,€10,€20 deals really good stuff and ibiza has some real out of this world type stuff.

Coffeeshop get down to it . loved it

Some are more up market than others. Some have higher prices in the more tourist areas. I had the best sativa ever there. We were there again recently. Such a great city in general. I felt safe there and had great experiences wandering about till 4am. Glasgow is much more dangerous at night. Just don't get too wasted
And be careful if you try anything in a smart shop. Some of that stuff is very strong.

Smartshops have other stuff than weed?

Been a while, but I was very impressed with Greenhouse Koffeeshop in the 'dam (it's one of the most well known ones and was friendly). Very good quality menu. Had some Organic Trainwreck there that was amazing, even though I'm usually more of an Indica fan.

Not every Koffeeshop in the Dam is quality. Some sell crap, surprisingly. Others are weirdly hostile to foreigners. Seek out the good ones - there are loads.

Good luck, it's a pretty awesome place.

1E Hulp and Green Place are 2 of the best Smokeys and Bulldogs are shit but plenty of other great ones too.
Haarlem and Zandoort are also worth a short trip on the train from Amsterdam loads of great Coffeeshops there too and bit quieter and cheaper.

I am there only for a weekend... So unfortunately there will be no time for trips to other cities... But thank you for the recommendations! 1E Hulp seems to have a good reputation.

Yes theres another Coffee Shop with like a Rasta theme right near there that's really good too cant actually remember the name.

I remember 1 like that you could play chess an read books so out there

Is that atlantis?

Definitely 1eHulp, always have a great selection of quality bud for average prices of €6-€14.
And oh man their edibles taste so good.
Too good infact, it'll make you want to eat 4 slices of their cake in one sitting! (p.s do NOT eat 4 slices in a sesh)

1eHulp great for local prices, bit out of the way but worth it. Dampkring always a great way to smoke away a few hours.

The cake sounds nice! Definetly will try some of it :-)

That's a shame but your defo have fun mate. I got stuck in a gin house my last time there it's in on of the side streets from the bulldog the red light district one lol it's the oldest gin house in the world check it out if you can.

Siberie is good, not too far from Centraal station.

Visit Katsu Coffeeshop, its close to De Pijp station on the metro. Its a small hidden gem a bit out of the center but close distance like 10min by metro. Absolutely love the vibes there, prices are alright and the quality of the weed is really good too. Also they have a toilet for which they dont charge like other ones lol. I suggest to visit definitely and leave high from there at least once and try to find your way around xd good luck!

Agreed. I went posh and paid silly per gram for some king hassan black 2. Made the mistake of flaming it to locals amusement, and 2 grams literally just bubbled and splatted on the skins within a second of flaming it. What a smoke.
De pipj is amazing. Its where i stay when i used to go. Venture further south, about 750 km from katsu on the main vessel road and and tiny outlets on sidestreets have the best widow ive ever had, a shame i cant remember the name, but it was fitted like a chinese takeaway, no seats, a counter, menu, cheers. My tolerances are fine and could get through a henry of anything on here daily, but 1 joint of that widow was properly whitey brutal class A.

Yep! I’m sure I had the same white widow you had! One spliff
Knock me out cold! So strong I couldn’t stay awake to enjoy it! Had to move onto purple haze not half as strong but I could at least function! Lol

The first place I tried in Amsterdam was a little place opposite Vondel Park simply called Vondel.
It was a nice reintroduction to weed for me after years without it.
I honestly can't remember prices but I thought the atmosphere was nicely chilled and the clientele mainly seemed to be local students.
If you're hungry Vegan Junk Food is incredible!

Hey, if you fancy getting away from the tourist areas try the Westerpark district.

A couple of really nice Coffee shops in that area, first is Coffeeshop Chaputeau, it’s just a walk in service but the prices are insanely good, quality of the smoke is high and there always a line of friendly locals to chat to.
A couple of streets away from that is a Moroccan coffee shop called Coffeeshop Freedom (this one has seats),small but high quality menu and the hash is top class. Again mostly full of friendly of locals, highly recommend.
Plenty of nice restaurants in the area too. Well worth it if you fancy a break from the chaos.

The plug is always a great stop, not to far from Dam square and has a great choice of Cali buds.

Not sure when was posted I am New to lb. If you have already been I hope you had a great time I absolutely love the place. My favourite is coffee shop jonny. Only 2 seats or something so pay and go place. Just a mention for voyagers personally never had any issue at this place always first stop because of proximity to central station.

You will find a special one just wander and get lost in the magic. They are all different in vibe, products, prices, etc.

De Kroon
Bagheera
Tweede Kamer
Boerejongens

Cool! Thanks for all the recommended coffeeshops. I have to make a plan to visit a couple of them and not get stuck in the first one :)

Amnesia is my top choice , I’m over due a visit , enjoy

Katsu in the de pijp area, a lot of locals use it. Lovely wee place,.great atmosphere and some great weed and hash.

My trip to Katsu was ruined by a group of loud London teens/early 20s. Shame. But the market was worth the walk :)

That's a shame, last time I was there a group of French students were in. They were quite loud as well, I was sitting at the bar rolling when they ordered a half and half joint. 20 minutes later they bought a full strength one. 15 minutes later? Uncontrollable giggling lol. I may well be slightly biased as I fell for the lassie tender, lovely hazel eyes

I sat outside and enjoyed a hot chocolate in the cold February air. It was nice apart from the noisy lads yelling about their "Zoots" haha

Bluebird was always good and some nice blue cheese, Voyagers had some really nice Rollex OG and if u fancy a little walk we found a nice 1 called Katsu.
Enjoy

The Bulldog cafe

Coffeeshop La Tertulia is a great little spot. Very chill with lots of pot plants and right next to a canal.

sounds good

Sounds perfect mate nice one

It's not exactly central but if you get a bit lost, or fancy exploring, down in the South-East is Coffeeshop Stud, on Molukenstraat. Very relaxed, locals only, good selection, great prices. God I love Amsterdam...

Grasshopper is nice. Its definitely a tourist coffeeshop since it's right opposite Centraal Station, so the weed isn't the best, but I love sitting out on their terrace on an afternoon just people watching/canal watching :)

Wow! Grasshopper brings back memories! Super skunk! Early nineties! Lol

Haven't seen anyone mention Amnesia, went on my birthday & they gave me a complimentary waffle, cream & Nutella thing with a little candle which was awesome, and their Dr Greenspoon was out of this world. I also enjoyed dampkring, barney's & abraxas. Haven't been for a few years mind

Was having the same issue a few weeks back too mate. I bought a mason jar on amazon but I actually washed out a jam jar and disinfected it and that genuinely does a better job. Costs nothing and keeps the green fresh and doesn't dry it out. Holds a decent amount too and is easy to store. So if you don't want to spend money and wait for delivery then just clean out an old jar with an air lock seal.

I make pretty mason jars for weed :) but....they are a bit girly haha

Any chance I could get one for my Mother ;) lol

Go on smellyproof.com good stuff there my G

Mason jars are the best for getting maximum smell taste of your bud mate. If u want to go down the bag route, then Smelly Proof or Head Chef bags are always reliable. Can get them on eBay/ amazon :)

I prefer glass just make sure whatever you get is air tight you should be good. Don't have to spend a lot unless you want a brand or whatever

No worries I love this tune I was listening to Passengers EP by them it’s another cracking thumping EP worth a listen 8)

Happy Friday everyone

OH MY DAYZ!!!
TUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNE!!!!
XD

Been listening the new RTJ (RunTheJewels) album recently and it's an absolute bamger. Ju$t ft. Pharell amd Zach de la Rocha is one of my favourites. Too lazy to link it but if you're into Hip Hop and feeling frisky!

I'm also interested in this and been wondering the exact same thing about if RSO could be used for making edibles. I don't really see why not? Also, for calculating dosages, what is the average THC content of 1ml RSO in mg? Would it be 1000mg?

About 500/600mg from a good RSO

I'll give those a look, thank you bro

I had the same issue with my old vape. It had a huge bowl and took loads of weed to fill it. You'd get maybe 10 hits before it tastes like shit and that was .5 of a gram gone. I was getting through an 8th in like 2 or 3 days and not really feeling it that much. Smoking an 8th would last me a week. I was tempted to start smoking it again even though the Mrs hates it when I do. Lol.
I invested in a mighty. The difference is unimaginable. The bowl is about 1/4 of the size of my old one. Get maybe 10 -15 hits out of a bowl still and it proper fucks you. Yeah it's expensive but it's going to pay for itself with the weed I'm saving compared to my old one.
My advice, if you want to vape, get a top end vape. You really do get what you pay for.

Gotcha. Truth be told, the purchase was to try it before making a larger investment straight off, guess I should have just went that way in first place. Cheers

Crank up the temperature ?

Weed too dry ?

You’re too hardcore?

Spliff is heavier in my experience if there’s tobacco involved


What vaporiser have you got?

Nebula One - 2ND Edition - Portable Premium Vaporizer Loose Leaf Dry Herb Vape purchased based on price and reviews seemed to be good tbh, should have invested more seems to be the issue.

Bruh...I smoke about that conservatively and for sure I can tell you it’s not that u are too hardcore for vaping just too hardcore for that vaporizer. All that cheap tech is garbage for those who appreciate it. Invest in the best bro you are going to be using it everyday for years pay how much you would spend on an ounce or about you know what I mean? How long will an oz last, it’s an investmentccs I used the old vapor bro’s model (not hands free and I love it just have to learn how to change the screen online but it gets hot enough to feel like I don’t have to smoke and nothing else not even their hands free model did that I think because they had to regulate the temp to prevent burning.

The best new new right now now though, Dynavape. My cousins who smokes at least as much as us says he’s in love and he tried all of them even the mighty by volcano. He said he uses .1 g at a time and blaaassts off. He said he got the button charger and it was worth it.

Yeah, think i'll have to upgrade - but only after trying some more of the goodies on here! Cheers bro for the advice

He just got the dyna and told me about it, I’m about to buy it myself, even tho I haven’t tried it, he has tried my vapor bro’s

Pax 2 or magic flight box are my Vape’s of choice - I’ve tried the Plenty but I like something smaller and more portable...Pax hits like a train but you have to fill the oven where as the MFLB you put what you want it and it only heats when you hold the battery in (so you don’t carry on cooking like nearly other vape)

I have a pax 3 and its brilliant. Though i find you need nice sticky weed to get the best results. Some LB erbs come far too dry for decent vaping.

So dry bud is not as good for vaping? ive just ordered the skywalker looks ok and cheap enough got the mr bald 3 atomizer, been using that for few days

It’ll cost you maybe the arm part but the S&B Mighty will end your search once you’ve pulled the trigger.

@gurnnnn

Ah thanks mate - I really appreciate you taking the time.
I shall have a deeks at some of the hazes then!
Im looking forward to buying Bud again as Iv only been smoking the oils from MJ (which are the nuts) for the past year or so as i quit smoking baccy. Hope I love the new Vaporizer so I can get stuck in!!!
