Amsterdam is renowned for its “coffee shops”. With roughly 250 in Amsterdam, it’s hard to find the best Amsterdam coffee shop.
In this directory you will find 15 of the most popular, famous and best coffeeshops in Amsterdam.
In the Netherlands the term coffee shop has come to mean alcohol-free establishments where cannabis (weed, hash, marijuana) are sold and consumed. According to the Dutch Drug and Coffee Shop Law the Amsterdam coffee shops are licensed to sell small quantities of cannabis to adults over 18.
Tourists can buy and enjoy weed, hash and marijuana in a pleasant and safe environment. Plans to introduce a so called “Weed-Pass”, intended to register Dutch smokers and exclude tourists, were dropped in 2012.
As for now, every person above 18 may enter a coffee shop. Your ID may be required to check your age.
