Been to Haarlem a couple of times and find it very pretty and a nice town. Can't really comment on the weed there as I bought most of mine in Amsterdam before going over there.

Well I'm definitely going there then! From the research I've done it seems the 'theehuis' coffeeshop is a safe bet for good weed, I like the look of the 'bubbles' from a recent trip report I read. I will report back next week.....

Well I went. Its a nice town but Its a bit boring after a couple of hours. Its just like any other dutch town actually, reminded me of Eindhoven.

The only coffeeshop I went to was the Theehuis which was nice. pleasant bud-tendress. Bought 1g bubbles 9e, decent weed but very mild. Barely felt stoned after a joint.

I was travelling solo so maybe I would go again with someone, but not by myself. You can't beat the lively vibe of Amsterdam.

Too bad, you missed the cream of the crop in Birdy, Top gear, top staff, top shop.

Enjoy

I wanted to go there but I couldn't find it as I didn't bring a map and I got bored of walking around for hours!

Well seeing as the Haarlem coffeeshops appear to have been instrumental in the current good news about the Wietpas I think we should all pay them a visit.

I'll certainly be making a special trip on my next visit.
