Ankara

[translated] I've been getting my weed here for about 15 years now. And that's not without reason: the quality, choices and staff are just great! Nowadays they have a lot of choice in weed, from a relaxed bud, to White Widow, then two types of haze to the banger: Snowball! White weed that you pay a lot for but the effect is also there. I always get great help from the staff, always friendly, ready for some chatter and with knowledge of the subject. All in all a good reason to visit them. Only take away unfortunately, due to government regulations. Bummer!

Absolutely trash. Weed has more leafs in it than a mf oak tree. Hasj is a serious no go, same goes for anything else than Royal Cookies & Amnesia Haze. These wankers clearly don’t know what they’re selling to you. Asking questions about the weed/hasj such as for example what kind of cannabinoids it contains is not tolerated (because they don’t know). Cleary this is a very very low quality shop, at all aspects.

Above a burger restaurant. You have to climb a couple of stairs here and this area is horribly unattended and dirty to say the very least. If you're brave enough you're at one point eventually entering this shop which is better looking but definitely is outdated. Bummer, as quite big with about fifty seats and a billiard table. At a bar area you buy your gear; their offerings are four types of grass and two of hashish. Latter one being one supposedly from Lebanon (9€/g) and one from Morocco (11€/g). Unfortunately we were out of gear and too lazy going back to what seemed to be a better option for sitting down which was coffeeshop Cheers in town so had a break at this proper shithole here which could be any random dive at any random red light district. Staff was OK enough even though clueless about their offered gear and although their classic Moroccan was a nice reddish as well as tasty one I strongly doubt I would return here.

A very good one. The two girls working behind the counter there are really nice. They have a good menu of weed and hash. Try the White Widow for 6€ per gram, it will please you. You can get bags for 6-8 €, 12-14€ and big ones about 30-35 €. Also the drinks aren't too expensive. You can sit relaxed in seats and enjoy the nice atmosphere.

Ankara is an absolutely fantastic coffeeshop for such a small town as Emmen. Having driven with a friend from Hamburg that morning, we thoroughly enjoyed the warmth and reception of Ankara. The beautiful Dutch girl behind the counter was lovely and very easy to talk to. The ganja there, wow, we tried the Ankara Special and one of their spacecakes among other things which were excellent. Couldn't find our car despite looking for it for 6 hours!

Not my kind of shop, much play-fun, but bad taste of weed (only heavy weedz and small bags).

It has a small but decent selection of weed and hash. White Widow, Snow White, Afghani and their own stuff called "Ankara Mix" At 6euros a gram its good value for your money and gets me high as a kite.

This coffeeshop is good so far I know. They have good hash, and you can buy waterpipes and other accessories. There are couches you can sit on with a nice view on the mainstreet in Emmen. Too bad this coffeeshop's reputation was damaged by some nasty incidents. But if you're in Emmen, visit Ankara. Or one of the others, because they all look attractive, and have nice stuff.
