Guide Books

These two publications deserve a special mention. If you're going to Amsterdam they can both prove invaluable.

Mellow Pages

A Smokers Guide to Amsterdam by Kip.

An excellent guide to Amsterdam coffeeshops. Several editions of this guide have served as my bible over many visits. The 6th edition covers Kip's top 40 coffeeshops.


Get Lost

The Cool Guide to Amsterdam by Joe Pauker.

The best guide to Amsterdam on a budget.


Web Guides

There are several other coffeeshop guides on the web. Like the books, English language sites tend to be by Brits and Americans living in Amsterdam. For that reason they will have more first-hand knowledge of the scene than an occasional visitor like myself. Strangely, though, none of these sites has a map. You may, therefore, wish to use the map here in conjunction with the reviews on these pages.

Stiltskin's Guide Detailed listing with star ratings and reviews.

Homepage Amsterdam! Listing with reviews.

Zion Train Listing with reviews.

Midnight Express Listing with links. Not as good as those above but these guys also do cheap trips from UK (see below).

High Times American magazine and organisers of the Cannabis Cup.

Time Out

Phat!

High Market

THC's Address List A mammoth list of coffeeshop addresses. No info though.

Travel

Midnight Express Cheap coach trips from the UK to Amsterdam specifically for smokers. I've always flown there (and flown back) myself so I don't know what they're like, but it sounds like fun!
