Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

When you get off the train at central and walk out, whats the first place that you think about?

Mines is Dolphins but because of the location I stop off at Stones Corner first for a smoke, its a great little place (can be crowded), nice atmosphere and the service isn't bad either.

What would be your preference if location was not an issue and whats your first stop if your choice is a little out the way?

I've had one of the best 'first stops' at Siberie. Relaxing mellow vibe with a big cuppa. So I'd go with Siberie, if location was not an issue.

I usually stay at meeting point hostel, so first stop would be 420 for some nevilles and caramello

depends on the time. early it usually is barneys. otherwise basjoe i gues.

like the guy above me depends on my arrival. its usually ealry so depends. if its very early and i land before or around 8 have no luggage trouble and am in amsterdam before 9 its prob damprking 2 or barneys. if its after 9 like usual its usually rokerij or the 420. usually 420 for a pre rolled reefer and a few volcano bags of nevilles.

Its been different places for me each time,This time i will go to dolphins & something like that myself come november .

rokerij always makes me feel like amsterdam as does grey area. just the decor, interior and ambiance i experienced every single time i visited.

a majority of my previous trips i have always gone to barneys first. normally because i land very early and its always open. plus i can get a nice fresh squeezed juice and something to eat.

hmm i can picture it now

Hmm.. my first time earlier this year I went to Greenhouse Centrum. Place and dealer were a little cold. Green Place and Grey Area were the coolest friendliest places. Green Place had better herb. Green Place wins. Im baked.

For my first stop I usually nip into Anyday for a fat one of Stella Blue and when I'm nicely buzzed then I'm off to find a cool hash pipe and some nice Ice-o.

Central if I land in Dam, WW Sativa if I land in Haarlem, although I'm gonna try barneys as a first shop on my next trip...

I like a lot of others arrive early in Amsterdam (usually) and although Barneys was a firm fav of mine for so many years ( I remember the best Vege breakfast in Amsterdam for under 10 guilders...) I have since vowed never to cross their door again...

My first stop is based on how much quicker my stride becomes the closer I get to Amsterdam. I leave the midlands in slow c h i l l e d mode, hit the airport bar R E L A X E D, but once I have landed on Dutch turf, I AM OFF, and God help anyone who gets in the way (and it’s a long way from the 'cheap-seats' airstand to the fast train to Central).

So the obvious first early morning stop and score is Central Coffeshop. This is my 'wild card' as I always end up buying something I wouldn't usually here. Their menu is great and I always seem to pick up a good 25 euro deal (they are consistently strict about the 5g rule though... boo). I usually take my score round the corner to Coffeeshop 36. I would never dream of scoring here but they have an amazing seat at the far end overlooking the canal and Damrak, huge open window to smoke in...

Basically killing time before I can go stock up and settle in at Homegrown Fantasy... Pure bliss

I like prob everyone else go to diff c/s first ! when i used to go wi mates and stay at the Winston we would stop into BaBa c/s before the hotel for a wee bit to roll in the room before a major crawl last trip first stop was Greenhouse lounge for a buy n fly then Dampkring 2 for the first spliff

1st CS I go to after leaving centraal station is Rasta Baby, get 1 nice pre-rolled skunk joint for 5 euros, 5 grams of Jamaican for 15. Euros and a coffee. Then straight to the Dampkring for some exotic sticky weeds.

It all depends on where I'm stopping, if it's nowhere near a coffeeshop I'll normally pop into Central and buy a bag or 2, if I'm stopping near a coffeeshop I either like or like the look of then that'll be my first stop, if it was somewhere I'd choose then it would probably be Paradox.
