Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

their hash (i think it was carmello) was really good on my last visit in may 08.

just got back from amsterdam march 2012 ,, i went into rick's because i didn't want to go into the bulldog and was disappointed by the standard of grass ,, i got a gram of the super skunk it was the worst bit of weed i got in holland,, the cafe seemed like it had had better days,, probably went down hill a bit with the smoking ban,,,if you go in here maybe stick to the hash

purple haze = purple outdoor weed grown in dutch sun

Did they not buy the coffeeshop next door or something seeing as the original place remained a bar?. Only asking as I know there was a coffeeshop a door or 2 down but does that run as Ricks coffeeshop or is it just referred to as Ricks coffeeshop but is actually a different name?.

There is Rick's Coffeeshop and Rick's Cafe is next door.

just come back from amsterdam and out of all the coffee shops i liked ricks the best ,, staff were lovely and friendly the waitress couldnt do enough for us and made us endless cups of tea,coffee with a friendly attitude and smile on her face. i also thought they had some lovely smoke in there the five ways haze was amazing as was the super silver haze. upstairs in the cafe there are cosy little seats at the front were you can look over the canal while you smoke your spliff and drink your coffee our favourite coffee shop our of them all spent a few hours each day there

HA Ha Ha HA HA HA HA HA,what a waste,spam spam spam,

Got a gram of morrocan hash from here during queensday week! 10 euro a gram & it blew me on my arse! the dealer is from edinburgh funny enough!!

Really enjoyed the SSH from here on my first trip in 2013, but went to check this place out on the weekend to find it boarded up with builders working inside. Initially I thought that this meant the end of Rick's, but the coffeeshop sign is currently hung on the temporary boarding outside, which makes me think they may just be remodelling the shop and bar. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Heard recently that the bar will open up again in 6 months (with new staff) after some thingy about the licence is sorted out! the coffeeshop is open like you already said.

Good news =] cheers buddy

No worries! upstairs was always a good view/seat .

small unimpressive place only called in as everywhere was bunged and i was trying out some different hash. bud tender calling you as soon as you walk in bought a gram of supposed to be Nepal black worst hash i got and short of a gram - besides that the menu was crap wouldn't recommend.
