  • in our trip to amsterdam.we had to find the best space cakes.and we did,trust me...

    the point of my travel tips is simple yet evident.so here how it goes :

    we found this coffee shop called chocolatta true an old dutch man in another coffee shop telling us about those space cakes that his wife doesn't want him to eat anymore because he use to get lost going back home almost everytime( the man was nearly 70).

    so we went and tryed... woowww!!!!!

    so here is my tip if you find chocolatta take a business card or write down the address, cause we never been able to find it again...

    then email me the address. :0)

  • I was amazed by the number of coffee shops in Amsterdam. Most are dumps, and there are a select few that I really enjoyed. The place I really liked was the Grasshopper on Spustraat. Clean, nice vibes, nice people. Pink floyd has good music, but watch out doing a nose dive off the stairs. The decor at the Greenhouse was way cool, but the staff is very freaky. The bouncer who is a dead ringer for the mob actor on Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrells. He enjoyed intimidating the stoned visitors. He also liked to make passes at all the visiting women at the bar including my wife. If you over 40 (as I am) dont worry, most who visit the coffee shops are in there 20s and they can care less about your age. Please remember that there are some shops that sell beer (Dampring-Nes Cafe-Greenhouse)

  • Hello VT members and visitors...
    Just back from Dam, yesterday, late at night...mems flowing in my head....but my brain is somehow slow today.
    This was my 4th trip to Dam...though, and for the first time, something bothered me....It has been raining the whole trip, so I wanted to find some cool and comfy coffee shops.
    What I noticed is the following, none of them are comfortable except maybe one, the Kasmir Lounge, but far from centrum (Jan Pieter Heijenstraat South West).
    I know the coffees are not squats, but hey, one likes to smoke being cool and cosy no?
    My wish for the next coffee shop to be opened would some couches and comfy armchairs !!!

    The best to chill was Rockerij (spacious, beautiful barmaids, excellent music, good high).
    The best to smoke was Grey Area - Owner Jon is great !, so is his Yellow Cab...
    The best Roots feeling was Easy Grow (Rasta atmosphere and music).
    The best Chill was Kashmir Lounge

  • Simply put, the coolest interior of a building you will see. They put so much effort in; agate inlayed everywhere with lights behind them, inlayed wood everywhere, and the ever hard to find COMFY COUCHES.

    Not much more I can say about this...it was a coffeehouse like so many other coffeehouses in Amsterdam. It was just the first one my friends and I went to, plus they had a nice club next door.

    If anyone knows the DJ who worked there this summer, I'd LOVE to know him. :)

    Dopey eyes & having another
    space cake
    by badgirljessica
    The Bulldog is one of the chains of Amsterdam coffeeshops that can be found around the city. In addition to the marijuana that you can procure there, you can also enjoy space cakes, teas, beer, wine, and liquor. The environment is quiet and cozy, offering views of the canal. The music is usually of the classic rock variety and internet access is available as well.

    I got a few space cakes at 6 euro each. These are marijuana brownies and they even come with "instructions" on how to take them. This being my first experience with brownies, I must say I rather enjoyed them, though they didn't start to effect me until I was on the train leaving Amsterdam. Needless to say, my train ride was interesting.

    Marijuana and hashish are technically illegal in Amsterdam, but they're tolerated to a degree. Small-scale production and use aren't prosecuted, and "coffeeshops" are allowed to sell cannabis as long as they're discreet. Or so I read somewhere.
