Very small but cosy place, tried it a few years ago and loved the place nice friendly staff. Always plan to visit every trip, but never made it.

I've been into SoftTemple twice. Its a nice little place, kind of quiet feeling. The people working there are pleasant and helpful, but not boisterous. Overall the atmosphere is "calm relaxation".

First time I went in I bought the Temple Ice. This they claim is "very strong, 70% THC". It was good, but not that strong - Dutch Moonshine from 2e Kamer is stronger. I asked the bud-tender what weed Temple Ice was made from and he did not know.

Dropped back in first week of Feb and deciced to try the Brainstorm weed. This is their "house speciality". I wonder if they make Temple Ice from that, but I have my doubts as the high is different - Temple Ice seemed rather a lot of Indica, but Brainstorm had a clear Sativa effect.

Anyway, Brainstorm was pretty good - I am smoking a bit right now. Brainstorm has a very nice fruity aroma to the weed and that taste lingers after the exhale. Is that a blueberry-mango flavor I recognize? Its has a nice sativa-style "up high" combined with just a slight relaxing indica-style stone. The actual power of the high is decent but not overwhelming. My feeling is that SoftTemple has come up with a pretty good hybird, but I don't know its actual genealogy. If they sold seeds, I would give it a try as a grow, but I think they do not.

This shop is on Gravenstraat so its in the circle of shops close to the station. As to be generally expected in that area, cannabis products are sold in pre-weighed packages. But when I ordered 5 gs of Brainstorm I was pleasantly surprised to be presented with a single 5 g packet instead of 5 1g packets.

If you want to expel some feeling of tension from the city, this is a good place to go. The Brainstorm is a unique product, so I would recommend to try that.

The Soft Temple is a really nice coffeeshop nearby the Dam. I tried the Brainstorm strain and it had a strong uplifting effect for about 20 minutes (if generous) after smoking but it has this weird sparkler shit that goes on in your brain - kind of popping with energy - that is a bit disconcerting. I'm not sure I would try it again; I found the "brainstorm" left me restless. I like other sativas much better. However, I stopped by here several times to smoke and always found the staff very kind.

found this place during last years cup week,was ideal gentle start to the day,playing blues,brainstorm was really nice...small and chilled out kinda place great budtender who was on the ball....changes later inthe day as different tender prefers different sounds but all in all a sanctum of relaxation away from the louder ,busier coffeeshops.......but then i like to mellow out when toking ,not be assaulted by pumping loud music...if i want noise i'll go to a bar

nice little shop, the royal delux hasj & the brainstorm weed are always good

I agree-good place.Good space cake on my first visit, good brainstorm on my second visit.

am i right in saying that they only sell 2g bags in this place?

I went in over the weekend saw that you had to go upstairs to smoke, I asked if it was ok to smoke pure downstairs and was told no so I just walked out, I glanced at the menu but didn't really take any notice of the price/strains.

thats weird cos when i went in there breifly the guy was just opening up and was smoking weed himself...but then he was a bit weird himself never really spoke much just sort of nodded at me.
still trying to figure out where to go in may and what to look for , nepal balls sound like a good option and any kind of hash that will chill me out, i usually smoke weed over there but i think this time i just going to stick to resin as i havent had any for ages...

I recommend going to Amsterdam in May and looking for some Coffeeshops

very helpful i will try that

Wasn't impressed by the welcome.

Went in, "Hi, may I have a hot chocolate please?"

"You have to buy weed"

"Thankyou"

Exit out the door.......

I like their cakes. bought 2.5g of orange bud there this weekend for 15€, amazing price but quality of the weed wasn't the greatest (well for that price, what do you expect). still not bad imo

Nah this place is ok.I went in a few times when i was in the centre and its one of the best places to sit upstairs and nice decor etc.i scored there the first time but must of gone in again for a quick smoke and choco at least 3 or 4 times more and i didnt get told to buy and i asked if i could smoke my own and it was fine.Its a nice little haven in quite a crappy and busy area. p.s used to be known for its hash rather than weed
