Address
Neighborhood: Centrum
Amsterdam’s buzzing hub, with its sprawling network of tram rails and a seemingly constant flow of tourists and commuters, yields convenient access to some of the best sightseeing, shopping, and street life in Europe. Closest at hand are the Royal Palace, the quaint shops of Haalremmerdijk, the pedestrianized zones Kalverstraat and Dam Square with popular neighborhoods such as the Red Light District, and the Canal Ring hardly more than a moment’s stroll away. With the well-connected Centraal Station as Centrum’s base, it's easy to travel farther afield via one of the city’s iconic trams.

Me and my partner spent €25 euros on a strain and €12 on beers each and as there was nowhere to sit we sat outside. When we finished our beers we proceeded inside and found a seat, only to be approached by a very rude member of staff telling us that she ‘didn’t care’ that we’d already bought a beer there and ‘there’s the door’ when we said we didn’t want anything else. We carried on sitting in there to then be approached by ANOTHER waiter telling us we had to buy something!! So we asked for some water which wasn’t good enough for him and was pressured into buying an unwanted drink. I will never ever go back to this coffee shop, very unwelcoming, rude, dirty place.

Having purchased €36 A GRAM Cali weed, €18 a gram Smokey Special AND a drink from the bar, I was surprised to find out that one friend out of the 4 having his own can of drink (because a 200ml Diet Coke costs €3) was absolutely unacceptable, as one rude and unwelcomely waiter proceeded to harass us to the point of ordering that we left the premises. Felt uncomfortable and even unsafe as a tourist visiting his country and giving him business. Absolutely appalling and disgraceful, if anyone goes here your making a great mistake. FOUL.

By far the worst coffee shop I have ever visited in my multiple trips to Amsterdam, I bought a significant amount of cannabis when I entered (>€45) and thought that the staff would be satisfied in how much I had paid them for the privilege of smoking in their premises.
Halfway through smoking I was approached by a member of staff who said I had to buy a drink to be allowed to smoke there any further. When I refused this he insisted I had to leave and forced me to finish the rest of my very expensive strain in the street, violating the law. Not only did this make my otherwise great trip seem foul, I felt as if the staff were aggressive towards me and that they had no right to talk to me that way or were at all suited to the job they were getting paid for.
All in all awful experience, do not ruin your holiday coming here.
This is a disgrace to Amsterdam.

Went to this cafe the previous evening and enjoyed it, decided I would go back the next day and the atmosphere was completely different, I went to the door and the security at the door told me he wants to see my identification and when I took out my id he told me it’s not valid that I have to go, I asked why it’s not valid as I had 6 different forms of ID and he wouldn’t give me any reason, standing here with my girlfriend I thought it was very rude of him at first because I was being really respectful to him but he got aggravated really quickly, maybe he felt like he needed to assert his masculinity to the 2 other security guards standing at the door because they think he’s weak or something like this but it was childish of him.
Do something to fix this because if I ever return to Amsterdam with a big group of friends and see that tall skinny weasel at the door we won’t be going into the coffee shop.
Absolute joke.

Came here as a passing visit. I popped in with my wife and scanned the menu. This place was €1/2 more expensive on the smokes due to its location. I didn't mind paying as I was waiting for some prints to be done nearby.
On the counter, the chap behind seemed pleasant enough but on edge as he explained what they have etc.
I ordered two smokes and said I'll take a seat in the back and smoke. We smoked (white widow) which was nice and smooth. A lady came over to as if we wanted any drinks, we said we were ok and she went off. As we finished our smokes my wife said she wanted another, being €7 each, this meant we spent €21 so far.
She smoked and had about 15% of her smoke left and the lady came back asking if we wanted any drinks. I looked at my wife and sid we were fine. This waitress said we have been sat down too long and need to order, being forced to purchase a drink. I said we were going to leave in a few minutes after my wife finished her last bit of the smoke. The waitress said to me " you have to leave now" and I saw red. How DARE a business put exploiting customers and tourists into spending more money over customer service? I let the waitress know this and asked if my money so far spent wasn't good enough and she couldn't answer. I will add that me and wife were the only coloured people in this area so not sure if this was due to race we were targeted.
We took the last few puffs outside and thought how dare someone force a customer to buy something they don't want. What if I had a medical condition?
My advice, if you want to be fleeces out of money, go here. If you want rubbish customer service, you have found the right place.

Felt very very unwelcome as a tourist. The man working there was rude and appalling and made me and my friends throw our drinks away after spending 60 euros at this place. This man is not suited to the job and seriously worries me for other visitors. Foul. Fuming at the state of this place and would’ve been great if it weren’t for this disgrace of a service. Really disgusted. Only recommendation is not to go there. Honestly. Foul.

Yeah no next…
Waste of space, bad music, awful drinks. I have never not finished a drink… well we all left ours ! Orange juice undrinkable (Industrial sugar) and the vanilla milk shake was grosse, well it just had ice, milk and half a bottle of sweet vanilla cordial. It’s was the worst think I’ve had in my life… even pure sugar tastes better…
Alors là next…
Total perte de temps, mauvaise music, et des boissons infects. Je n’ai jamais laisser un verre plein dans un bar… on les a tous laissés !
Jus d’orange in-buvable (sucré et industrielle) et un milkshake à la vanille à gerber. Pire boissons que j’ai eu de ma vie…

Waiters endlessly standing on top of your head to order or pay, I think you would get what I mean if you head there for a good time, I personally like to avoid the touristy places and this one is in the middle of Rembrandt square. But still they put on the best music in any coffee shop in Amsterdam. Best electronic music, just don’t trip much ;) ;)

They had fruit flies everywhere. The flies kept landing on our drinks. And they gave me a cup full of ice cream when I asked for iced coffee..... the place is overpriced. The chargers you have to pay 1euro per 10 mins and its a purposely slow charge. I got 20% battery from 30mins with thier "chargers" .. Only good thing was the music. Walk down a side street and you'll find a much better spot. Don't waste your time.

Compared to most coffee shops in Amsterdam this place is huge and has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and room for everybody. They also have a club next-door with seating inside and outside across the street right on the Rembrandt Plaza. They have an excellent selection of herbal goodies and the staff is really top-notch and friendly and speak any language you can think of. Great coffee shop!
