Upstairs

This is by far the worst coffee shop in the region of Eindhoven. Be warned!!! (Living for years in Eindhoven.) I came here when it was convenient, in the street etc. but last year I bought the Upstairs special. And in between the dry weed was a big bud of wet weed, not able to smoke this of course.

The staff sucks, well the lady I had today was not happy to be there or to talk to me (idk). She rushed me and didn't even take the time to chat or recommend the weed to me in more details. Plus, she gave me H³... I don't even know what it means and didn't realise until in the car... As I never wanted to see her face again, and didn't wanna make a scene. There you go, 70 quid in the bin... Never going back there, thanks to the lovely lady.

Good location (just at the beginning of Stratumseind and near to Thomas and Spijker) but bad choice! The people hanging out here are generally nice like many people in Noord-Brabant area; however, staff of this coffeeshop are rude, non-smiling people. They are always looking for getting profit from small things, even if you are a loyal customer of this coffeshop. Let me explain; I think everybody knows tube-shaped boxes that you can carry a joint in them. These tube-shaped boxes are free-of-charge in nearly all of coffeeshops. But in the upstairs, even if you are a loyal customer and the non-smiling staff know you well and you bought a package of weed 30 minutes ago, they want you to pay 20 cents for a simple box which costs 0,1 cent for them. If it's close to you, just buy your weed and don't hang out there, because there isn't no reason to do it.

As mentioned, Upstairs is really tough to spot; look for the address and unmarked stairs. However, it's close to the train station and a good first stop. Very cool and laid back, I took a gram of Widow for 8 euros and a gram of Silver Haze for 12. The haze wrecked me, don't smoke if you have important things to do (like take trains/airplanes).

A nice little shop, good location. Quite difficult to spot (just stairs next to a pub). Widow is excellent as usual.

Coffeeshop and weed upstairs, pub and alcohol downstairs, friendly people (even if people in the pub don't appreciate so that much joint smokers), very nice place to get big headaches.

Actually the pub and the coffeeshop are separated. You'd have to go upstairs to buy marijuana and hash but you can also sit down and buy non-alcoholic drinks. The music is pretty techno/trance like and they usually have a TV where u can play the X-box. Downstairs is a pub where it is allowed to smoke but cannot buy MJ, it does sell beer and other alcoholic beverages though. Further it has 2 dart boards and several other games like chess/checkers and cards. Music here is fairly alternative ranging from Techno to Hiphop to Garage. Oh yes and it's not only known by the local people. Quite a few foreigners come in there, especially Limeys!

Due to new regulations, Begijntje has split into a downstairs bar and upstairs coffeeshop with separate entrances.

(Mid-class). An underground coffeeshop, only known by local people, it looks like a pub and you can use and buy there.
