Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

its near liedesplein!

Its actually spelled Leidseplein..When you get to Leidseplein look for Korte Leidsedwarsstratt and the hotel and coffee shop will be on the left side of the street.

Walk towards and past burger king and pancake corner..The big hotel sign will be above the coffeeshop pretty much.

Hi guys has any1 been to rookies lately?What the score do they sell weeb or beer??

And if they sell weed does any1 know what the menu is like?

Cheers

Just returned from A-dam...spent a lot of time in Rookies...in the old Rookies they sell gear only, no beer...across the street they have a resturant and bar where you can smoke the gear you bought across the street...the prices are from 8 -13 euros for a gram of weed...the "Rookies" is pretty good Hash is also of great quality especially the super pollen or the Afgan...you will not be disappointed Rookies is more than well worth the visit...

does the coffeeshop still only have a few kinds of weed and a few hashes??? everytime i went there they had a very limited supply of herb and hash... has this changed now that they are more of a coffeeshop and not a bar?

still a small selection...about 8 weeds and 8 hashes...however, nearly all of the weed in A-dam is Dutch and the growers use the same methods etc....I have found that regardless of the name of the weed, the high is about the same. (especially after 2 or 3 spifs) Rookies has transformed into a very decent CS and has a very respectable selection of gear.

First coffeeshop I entered, bought a gram of the Silver Haze EU$9 and a pre-rolled Northern Lights bunger EU$5.50. The menu didn't include any of the "highly recommended" strains I'd read about on here, but the smoko was nice just the same.

Room to swing at least two cats in here, and enough nooks to find your own space. The coffee was fine, the service was fine. Struck up the odd conversation with some very wasted people, but I really just enjoyed the chance to be somewhere roomy and chilled to get shitfaced.

Dart board was down when I was there. The mint tea made with fresh mint leaves is nice. They sell tobacco mixed and pure pre-rolleds. Isolator was on the menu for 60.

When I stayed here last year the restaurant across the road had been sold so the experiment to overcome the no alcohol law did not prove to be economical I guess.

Shame seemed a good idea to me.

However the hotel is still good and the cs downstairs ok for a quick visit. Very helpful and frendly staff.

What €60 per gram for isolator - your joking

Yeah, it struck me as kinda expensive, too. That's why I noted it. I bought a gram of Fantasia #2 that was adequate, but not the trippy stuff I'd heard about (maybe that was Fantasia #1). Got a very nice pure pre-rolled Northern Lights #5, though.

Shit, is this place definitely closed? Was looking forward to going back there this coming August, because it was one of onyl a few relaxed, smoking-friendly bars I could find last time I was there.

If anyone who's been recently could let me know, and/or recommend alternatives, that would be much appreciated!

The bar and restaurant are closed but the coffeeshop is still open as is the hotel.Still a very enjoyable place to relax.Enjoy

Ah ok, thanks for that. Yeah the coffeeshop is quite nice, just struggling to find places you can have a smoke AND a beer these days!

There are loads of smoker friendly bars so look harder

Could you list a few bars that allow tobacco then? Obviously not on this thread.
