The Balboa Family

Small shop with a strong eastern European workforce. No one acknowledged me and the strain list was pretty weak and massively overpriced. Much better product on offer in other shops close by.

Pretty solid selection, a little pricey, with 2G of Diesel Haze running 28Euro. The lower end of the menu had some decent prices, Skunk/Blueberry/Northern Lights anywhere from 16-20Euro for 2G. I can't complain about the smoke, the Diesel was very smooth and had a very clean high. All in all, worth a look in if you pass it by. Friendly staff, as well.

Despite what the posted hours on the door say, this coffeeshop opens around 9am. Yes they have pretty much the standard menu, as did most of the shops I visited on this trip (10). However they didn't mind that I often smoked stuff I'd bought at other places. The owners are from Spain, hence the name, and were very cordial. This is a nice place to spend a quiet early morning smoke with lots of room upstairs.

Right at the top of their menu was Diesel at 28 euro for two grams. Just what we were looking for, a crisp clean high with lots of energy. It's best to exhale after each puff as this is strong stuff! Upstairs are comfortably worn cushioned benches and a calm place from which to begin your journey.

We wandered in here because we needed to stop for a joint and it looked nice from outside. Same generic menu as everywhere in Amsterdam, only these people try and sell in €20+ amounts minimum! The weed was ok but there's much better to be had. The drinks were a rip off, €2.50 for a coffee and €2.50 for a soft drink. The guy was quite friendly but avoid this place!
