Usually my first stop in Amsterdam for a space cake, quick smoke and nice cup of tea. The Indian theme with the wonderful wooden carving of Ganesh gives the place a chilled out vibe, so the occasional techno/trance seems to clash. Grab a window seat and people watch either lost tourists or those on the down chasing the dragon in darker corners as you acclimatize to your new environment.

Never has been a place to stock up but just a nice place to relax and plan where your going next!

I agree with the people watching.

It's always packed, but it's made up for by the fact that it's an entertaining crowd to watch. Whenever I come in by myself, someone starts talking to me usually with the same "this is our first time" story. The decor is nice, so if you're not looking at the people, the walls are nice.

Got some high priced diesel here that would probably rate lowest on my buys from my trip. But the drinks are cheap!

Weed is typically overpriced.

I haven't purchased any smoke from here due to that reason but I have stopped in a few times with friends who are visiting. I only purchase a coke and I have never been hassled to buy more drinks. It's generally always hard to get a seat due to the touristic location and the music can be quite random and loud.

It's a nice place to people watch and socialise with tourists whilst you vape some weed but nothing more sadly.

listen. i've said it before and i'll say it again.

you dont go to baba to buy weed.

its overpriced a bit.

BUT... the drinks are cheap as fuck.

the atmosphere (especially at night) is awesome.

banging tunes.

AMAZING location (i.e. people watching to the max)

and if you're single, lots of opportunities to meet other ppl.

its a tourist money machine. they're gonna get you to buy drinks etc.

thats how they roll there.

one of my favorite spots to hang. actually this IS my favorite spot to hang.
