La Tertulia

Le Tertulia reminds me of the sort of coffeeshop that mom might own, as it has a very relaxed, kind and non threatening atmosphere.
In fact it's run by a mother and daughter team who have quite the cool little place to stop in for a smoke.
The shop itself is bright, open and airy and features a bit of an indoor garden and a mezzanine from which one can perch and watch the world go by.
Fronting onto the Prisengracht, it offers lovely canal views and tables by the water in nice weather. They make excellent milkshakes and yummy toasties, I've not tried the gear from here yet so can't comment either way there.
If you're tired of the usual bustling noisy shops of the centrum, then_ do _stop in here, just look for the large mural of Van Gogh painted on the outside.

I shant vote as I'm a little bit in the middle, the shop and staff are excellent but the weed I had was nothing special and had a very soapy taste which would of been down to the growers.

I didn't buy their weed, but I bought their brownies and they were the second best of the trip (Pink Floyd's space cake straight from the oven just ruled), but I did go back the next day for more brownies and they were closed. Awww.

I loved this cafe. Sitting by the canal drinking coffee having a spliff while listening to Lou Reed. Being surrounded by crystals was a bonus.

I feel the weed has become very poor at this place (shame). But on the other hand you can get some good food still and its a good location so still worth a visit with some other CS gear.

well on a recent visit i purchased NYCD which was average if that, and some Bubble gum which again was average.
Would still visit again as i love the shop and the Big cup of Coffee was the best i had on the trip.
Love it
Also do some weed in euro 5 bags which is ideal for newb smokers or those wanting to try a variation of strains on the cheap

Their iceolator 5 gm hash coins are pretty amazing if anyone has tried them. I smoke lots of hash, and it was one of the finer ice hashes I purchased there. I also believe, and Milehigh can verify for me, they have those tasty kickass chocolate bars? they were great for the flight back to the u.s.
