Latest coffeeshop changes

Totally, totally agree - My city has fully legalized since I started going to Amsterdam, and I still go every couple of years because there's nothing like finding that perfect spot in a shop and just enjoying being able to spark up. (And being able to get hash is a nice plus as well, that's not a thing here for some reason)
Glad to hear others feel the same--was getting worried that too many shops were so focused on the product that the shop experience itself was falling by the wayside (I'm looking at you, Superfly)

Flower Power in Leeuwarden has been taken over by 7th Heaven from Amsterdam by the look of it, Lemming.

Ahh, now it makes sense...

...The place was balls deep into the Dream Bros merch when i was there in June... Was chatting with one on the BT's, and he mentioned he was employed by Empire on Dream Bros instruction; which i thought a little odd at the time...

... Apparently, he got the job by simply writing a letter to DB's, about how amazing they are?!

... anyone got their address?!

Thanks for the info. That reminded me to check out cannabisindustrie.nl for any other recent changes. I spotted that THC has closed and De Bengel has moved.

I highly recommend Cannabis Industrie coffeeshop news as a source of updates. It's in Dutch but Google will translate it for you. In fact, if people were to keep an eye on it and let me know of any changes that would be very helpful. You'll find our Bruce van Dam writing there too.

I imagine not. See here: https://www.parool.nl/amsterdam/nieuwe- ... ~b96078bd/

It’s open now for buy and fly.

Thanks @winnie

This will be about Power Flower from Apeldoorn taking over what used to be Terminator in Amsterdam.

Looks like Amsterdam Genetics have taken over De Bommel in de Baarsjes. They've given it one of their super imaginative names Can you guess what?

NOOOOOOO!

Why? It's in a weird place, and mostly a local B&F...

....Such a shame when we lose the old style, wood panel CS's... It still had an atmosphere, and felt like a real throwback to the 70's or 80's... Bloke that owned it was nice, too... Never asked to sit in the back, but I heard he could be quite strict regarding who he let in.

Big, decent grams for a bargain price... Such a shame!

RIP!
