Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

Hi everyone, I will be at the dam between the 1 and the 5 of November.
My flight suppose to land late, and i will not be able to be at centre before 1 AM.
So anyone know about a coffeeshop that opens after 1AM?

You coffeeshops that ARE open late, correct? ..as in after 1 AM? if that is what you mean, then sorry to disappoint you but both city/national laws state that all coffeeshops must close by 1 AM at the latest, so you're gonna have a tough time

...a very tough time indeed, only options really is be at a shop between 0700 and 0100 or have someone stand by with a little stash for you to make it till shops open, or be fortunate enough that you meet a good kind soul willing to share a puff or two, anything else requires a really good local hook up (better than we know of, unless it is a weekend and you are really lucky)...

And just in case you were considering buying on the street, just don't for so many reasons... Sorry to be the (second) bearer of bad news!

Although very thankful, I'm sure there are places that opens after 1 AM.
Anyone else know of such place?

You may be sure, but you are wrong!
There are no coffeeshops that are open after 1am, they would lose their license very quickly if they were to open outside of the permitted hours.
Keep asking if you must, but I promise you that everyone will tell you the same thing.

I know about the law.
Bulldog at leidseplein opens until 3 AM at
weekends.
Maby there are other places that do the same other days of the week.

Sorry, but you're wrong again.

you're probably thinking of one their bars, where they don't sell weed? The Mack for example is open till 3:00am on weekends but I think it's not a coffeeshop? And there is also a hotel/bar that stays open till 4:00am

The Bulldog bar in the main hotel on Oudezijds Voorburgwal is open till 3am every night - 4am on Friday/Saturday but you will need to be a guest to go in and they don't sell weed I'm afraid.

Yes it is open late. It has become my "last stop". If you present as an adult to security, smile and ask if you can enter you're in, no problem. After a couple of evenings they will remember you.

And you can smoke pure to heart's content whilst enjoying an adult beverage. Bonus for nice WC a few steps from the bar.

I thought so too - and as a four times a year guest of theirs in his mid 40's I felt pretty confident about it back in April -- but got nowhere, a straight no. I'm guessing it depends who you ask and on what night; the shorter security guy doesn't seem as friendly as the larger dude.

Always wondered why people are so keen to get in to that bulldog place given the more or less totally fuckedstatus of everything else bulldog, and given the many wonderful alternatives like Batavia, but since weaven't been we might be missinga I a great time...

And to the OP: you could not be more wrong mate, but if you insist by all means plan as if there are shops open till later, why listen to people on this forum, none of us have probably spend much time there (especially the people that live there).

You're not missing much - the saving grace is the opening time; when all other CS's are closed - the Bulldog lounge is open for smoking business and generally pretty lively.
As a night owl - It's (hmmm and perhaps habit) the only reason I stay there.

Have to agree with OHMF on this one...

Wouldn't Kashmir lounge or Batavia be better bets then, or maybe it GPA location ting, well no matter...
