I have to say that this is one of the worst coffeeshops in Amsterdam, when we first walked in the atmos seemed good, but the woman behind the bar was rude and impatient, always staring at us, we didn't buy any weed the first time, but the year after we walked in for a meeting point, and this time decided to buy some herb. I walked down the steep spiral stairs and looked at their menu, I was surprised at how cheap the prices were because we had just been in Grasshopper 2, enough said, but the GH might have been expensive but at least it got me high, I bought 2g of Purple Haze, and a gram of Tai stick (whets it tied too lol!) I went upstairs to wrap one up, I rolled them both pure and none of them did shite! Absolute crap tumbled weed, not worth the bother, and to top it all off the woman behind the bar was rude and impatient again!

Don't let the cozy atmosphere of Bulldog Energy or the "cool" staff blind you from the real seediness of this place. My Brother and I asked for a mild pre-rolled joint. The bartender offered to roll one for us and called it a "Purple Haze". After taking our joint and our Coca-Colas to our seat we began to puff away. 10 minutes later we were in the deepest throes of a hellish nightmare. Our hearing and perception were completely distorted and were unable to move. We managed to gather our rucksacks and stumble outside. For the next 10 minutes we were followed by an organised gang of pickpocketers - upto 12 of them making strange whistling and clicking noises to signal to each other. This was a frightening experience which only ended after we ran to the security of the Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky's doormen. Even stood there the pickpockets approached looking for an opportunity to snatch our valuables. The previous night we had enjoyed a wonderful smoke at Softland Spuistraat 222. Our advice to other travellers like ourselves is to avoid the Bulldog Energy because they are in cahoots with the criminal pickpockets in the red-light district. The barman who gave us the so-called "mild" joint was 6 foot, black, with a crazy afro haircut. Avoid.

This was the first coffee shop we tried this time round as it was next door to the Bulldog Hotel where we were staying. It’s got some cool seating and loud music (sometimes too loud), usual menu, again no alcohol. They also sell mushrooms if you’re after any, didn’t try ‘em though.

The Bulldog Energy for me was probably the best coffeeshop that we found, the decoration is original, the music for techno and chillout lovers is of the best and the staff are friendly.
As for the grass the White Widow they offer is of the best in A'dam, after two joints it took us about 20 min to walk 100mts to the Hotel!!!
All of us laughing our guts out, very impressive.
As for the coffee, it's also quite good taking into consideration that north of the Pyrenees you can't drink coffee anywhere.
A definite for anybody visiting A'dam.
