Re: Coffeeshops with outdoor areas
Greenhouse Namaste has quite a few tables outside. Its not the most picturesque setting in the city, but it is a more substantial area than most. Also, the Bushdoctor @ Thorbeckeplein has a load of tables outside. That is a nice place to chill, a quiet corner next to the busy Rembrandtplein. Slight ...

Re: Flower Power
is it still open? Yes, it is. Our appt. a couple of weeks ago was only a stone's throw away, however what with Paradox & 1e Hulp also so near we didn't really pay Flower Power much attention, other than to note it was open and that its menu was quite cheese dominated. Place didn't really seem e...

Re: Greenhouse
Namaste's not usually noisy & crowded in my experience. At least its not very big in the back so I guess it can fill up easily but otherwise its somewhere I've gone many times in the last decade when looking for somewhere a bit more quiet and intimate than many places in the centre. And they can...

Re: Homegrown Fantasy
Years ago this was my favourite CS in the city. Their Blue Haze c.2004 (ish) was just lush, and it always felt like a welcoming and relaxed place to chill. On more recent visits I've been a bit more ambivalent, and when we were there in April we weren't made to feel especially welcome, and I wasn't ...

Re: Bushdocter
Enticed by the large number of tables outside in a chilled out spot next to Rembrantplein a friend and I visited this place. Inside the shop the budtender (who looked about 12, or maybe I'm just getting old) clearly told the people in front of us they had to buy drinks and smokes to use the terrace....

Re: De Kuil (420 Cafe)
Similar to the poster above, always bypassed this place previously for no real reason, but had to arrange to meet one of our group somewhere in Amsterdam when we arrived so "the 420 @ 4:20" seemed logical :D Didn't spend long in there as we had to go sort our accom. out but I liked the vib...

Re: 1e Hulp Coffeeshop
Where is this coffeeshop? Not on the map It almost is. It would be at ref Z5 if there was a Z before the A. ;) Continue down Rozengracht off the map on the far left, cross the bridge over the first canal you come to and its just there on your left. First time I'd made it to 1e Hulp on our last trip...

Re: Dutch General Elections - Sept. 12, 2012 (updated poll)
So do I, that's a great post. I can understand people on 'normal' wages not wanting to pay more tax. I don't want to pay more tax. However, that is a very self-centred and restrictive basis upon which to decide who should be running a country. And if all you're really concerned about is your wallet...

Re: Northern Light
My mate got some from the Bushdoctor on Thorbeckeplein last weekend so he could sit outside for ages. Worked out at €9/g though you have to buy 2 there. To be honest I thought it was rubbish stuff, and I like good NL.

Re: Happy Feelings (formerly Global Chillage)
Mixed emotions about this place. On the one hand, it is many things I dislike in a CS and the complete opposite of its predecessor, Global Chillage. It is now all modern and soulless, with bad mtv on tv screens prominent, vending machines for drinks, and a totally uninspiring menu. We bought some mi...

Re: Paradox
Paradox is a very unique and special place, possibly my favourite daytime coffeeshop. Our apartment on our last visit was closeby and I was very pleased to see it hasn't changed much in the few years since I was last there. Got to spend several mornings (ish) chilling out there, partaking of their g...

Re: Voyagers
Having heard things had changed at Voyagers I was keen to make it there on our last trip and we eventually got there on the penultimate afternoon. Slightly loud budtender who was actually sound - check Superb menu full of tasty bud - check Good times - check Great/convenient location; not the most a...

Re: Utopia
Had some of that Devil's 13 on one of our visits to Utopia over last weekend. It was very distinctive. Nice, although I was more impressed with some of our other purchases from the shop. We went through a lot of Champagne Haze. Just lovely stuff, couldn't have enjoyed it more. I also developed quite...
