Description Top

Smoke 'n' surf. Freeworld is an Internet cafe-coffeeshop on a busy tourist shopping street near Centraal Station. That means you can buy cannabis and alcohol and rent PC time.

It's a warm friendly place with a spaceship on the ceiling and aliens everywhere. There are some comfy padded benches and the music on our most recent visit was some up-tempo dub reggae. The grass is only fixed-price deals but the atmosphere is good.

Had been in the Dam for about an hour searching for somewhere I could buy and not just smoke, then I stumbled across this place. Great inside, looks like a space ship with little aliens hanging down. We met a cool local guy who was nosying at what I was buying from the menu, and gave me a thumbs up when I ordered some White Widow and even gave me a spliff to light up - I had a few blasts and tried to give it back but he wouldn't take it! Even when I built one he didn't want any. He just said that the one rule of the Dam is "if you don't bother anyone, they won't bother you". We chatted a bit more and then I watched him get on a little bike and just scoot his way down the alley out of his mind! I am already planning my next trip (pardon the pun) back to Dam this year and I definitely recommend this place!

Great little place, very friendly, great opening and closing times, good selection of hash. We always make a point of stopping here at least twice a day for a nice relaxing smoke.

Freeworld was the first of many coffeeshops we visited our weekend in Amsterdam. The place was a bit too dark, run down and shabby for my taste. The bathroom was the worst I'd seen. However, the weed I bought, Purple Haze, was excellent and of top quality! It was so fresh that it was sticky, and I got really stoned after about half a joint. Really top-notch weed!

You can drink (alcohol), browse the internet and smoke here. I sat and read and drank and smoked while the man was on the net. Not threatening, but not a place to hang out in though - we only went there for the internet.

I always stop at Freeworld as the last coffeeshop of the day. It is real close to our hotel and the service has always been good. The Internet is cheap to use, the drinks are not overly expensive and they serve beer and spirits. We have purchased pre-rolled wiet and hasj and a few grams of Orange-bud. The Orange-bud especially was tasty. I always look forward to Freeworld as a part of my whole Amsterdam experience.

We did not enjoy this coffeeshop as much as many of the others. The atmosphere seemed pressured and although we were being quiet, the barman seemed to enjoy staring at us for long periods of time. Nevertheless, they sold some great polm - had us chasing our way back to our beds in the hotel!
