Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

Thanks. I've not had much time to post in the past few days and my flight leaves this afternoon, however I'll be supplementing this thread in the next two weeks w/ more pics and adventures. Also want to put in my reviews of the over 12 coffeeshops I've visited since being in town. Those will show up...

I've enjoyed your beers the best out of all the beers I've tasted in Amsterdam.

Cheers!

Yes, solo for the entire two weeks and it's my first trip.

Really, it's the only way to fly.

Thanks much for all the great responses to my travelogue. These posts are a thanks for A L L the great information I've received through ACD. Through ACD I've found: 1. A great flat in a class area of the Jordaan. 2. THE definitive coffeeshop directory. 3. All about fiets: renting, riding, using, hi...

great to have some feedback about this boat ride, I tought of doing the same ride last trip, but I was to lazy. Will def have a try next season. also great to have some views of amsterdam's surroundings. Do they have the Biefstuck at cafe loetje amstel, like at cafe loetje in amsterdam? I know they...

Since the weather was calling for a bit of sun, I decided to try a couple of outdoor events: a fiets ride outside of town along the Amstel and an authentic canal boat ride w/ the folks from the St. Nicholas Boat Club. The stodgy Frommers and Fodors travel guides may not be 100% for many of us here a...

Great report and pics. Have been to Amsterdam many times, but usually end up eating junk food all trip. So i love the food pics, gives me ideas for places to try. A refreshing change to read a trip report, that contains more than just smoke and coffeshop reviews. Must try the view from the top of t...

Some very interesting photos there. Makes me want to climb those church towers which I cycle by every day. ... and of course a nice shot of our own bar and coffee shop there amongst them...:-) I wonder what you made of the snert? Personally I'm not overstruck on the taste, much as I SO want to like...

Great day in Amsterdam! The weather was perfect, if not a bit warm (21C). Dutch National Monument day was today, so the streets were filled with celebrants. Started the day at Barney's Uptown w/ a doob and a lovely BLT. Man, the bacon in the Netherlands is THE bomb, thick and juicy. http://i46.photo...

LOL! yea man, Dr. G is pure sativa! That shit crushed my jet lag and me racing around the city for the next 6 hours! Well, you can also see I'm a bit crap w/ the cannabis varietals. I don't label what I purchase so at the end of the day I've got a few odd bits in various bags. Suppose I'm not much ...

Rainy and drizzly this morning...perfect for a coffeeshop. Wandered into Dutch Flowers and found a lovely Steely Dan album on the sound system. Bud tender said he liked smooth and easy music in the morning; me, too. Spyro Gyra is another morning favorite. Anyway, purchased some bud and rolled a &quo...

Study up on your Dutch!

Right....thanks ! Spelling and pronunciation are difficult.

I learned uitgezonderd today...good to know on the fIEts.

Before I get too stoned and forget this morning, I wanted to relate what a fanTASTIC guy Apartment Paul is, and the apartment I'm occupying is first rate. There was a bit of a problem w/ PayPal upon my arrival, and Paul was gracious enough to allow some time (up to FIVE days he was willing) to solve...

...and it's TOO much fun. Met two fellow Americans my first day here, and told them I couldn't WAIT to get on the road. "No way!" was their reply "It's too crazy for a bike!" Exactly. What's that I see in the sky? Could it be the sun? Perhaps the St. Nick Boat Club is running. Th...
