SG REVIEWS

This coffeeshop was the closest to our hotel (Tulip Inn Dam Square) and thus became our 'local' Tidy, with a lounge upstairs with TV and seating. Music ranges a lot - when my girlfriend and I were there it seemed like a celebration of Bob Marley. Not as spacious as some other coffeeshops, but roomy enough.
Marijuana menu: Brainstorm was in fact a highlight of my debut outing to Amsterdam. Otherwise, a pretty good selection of ganja that'll satisfy even the dedicated smoker.
Service & staff: The owner was friendly, polite, and makes a great latte. On sunny days he sits outside the shop on a stool and welcomes his customers in. Made to feel very comfortable.
Summary : This coffeeshop was the closest to our hotel (Tulip Inn Dam Square) and thus became our 'local'. We spent many hazy hours sitting in Soft Temple enjoying everything it had to offer. Highly recommended. Full Review & Rating Breakdown

The menu was pushed onto me without me even asking; after inquiring about the weed I got a confused stare Lots of Bob Marley stuff on the walls. However, the guys behind the bar were all stoned on each visit to this coffeeshop. Neon lights outside and underage tourists inside. Not good.
Marijuana menu: A pretty decent selection, but a little vague. I got no answer when I asked if "Purple" on the menu was Purple Haze or something completely different. They didn't seem to know what they were selling. Not good.
Service & staff: Very poor at very best. They had no idea about what they were selling, just a bunch of stoned guys talking amongst themselves and demanding your money.
Summary : The menu was pushed onto me without me even asking; after inquiring about the weed I got a confused stare. Looks pretty from the outside, but this is somewhere where your smoke should be over pretty fast.

A great place to sit in for hours and get steadily mashed Nice Indian decor, and a very comfortable sofa. Though it's usually in use. A whole load of crazy stuff on the walls. Quite cramped when the place is busy, however.
Marijuana menu: Not a huge selection, but decently-priced and in suitable quantities.
Service & staff: Highly knowledgable woman behind the counter, but she never smiled once. Someone load her a cone or something.
Summary : A great place to sit in for hours and get steadily mashed. As another reviewer said, it's also nice to sit by the window and watch Amsterdam go by. Great cafe latte, too. Recommended. Full Review & Rating Breakdown

Probably the worst coffee-shop I visited last time around - but I wasn't expecting anything fantastic when I walked in Bland, ordinary, uncomfortable, and the tables are about the width of a bench. On top of that, there were 3 flagrantly underage English tourists on the table opposite us, who were given five star service. They looked about 13.
Marijuana menu: The Northern Lights was NOT Northern Lights. It didn't even look like Northern Lights, let alone smell, taste or stone like Northern Lights. Vague, over-priced rubbish, mainly.
Service & staff: The lady in this shop talked to all foreigners as if she really didn't care if they bought anything or not. The only time she gave you any kind of attention is when you asked for the menu. Drinks are self-service.
Summary : Probably the worst coffee-shop I visited last time around - but I wasn't expecting anything fantastic when I walked in. If your type of place is one filled with underage tourists skinning up; shifty Middle-Eastern men holding shouting matches in the windo???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????W?? ????????????????? ??à??????????
