Birdy

Best coffeeshop, nice weed (don't remember what strain), very friendly staff, gifts for all and an honest smile for the costumers.

First shop I've visited in Haarlem. Nice and cozy place with a lot of regulars. Feels very local. You can either go inside and chill, or just buy some at the boot once you've entered. I highly recommend trying their Knetter at €10 for 1.1 grams. It's one of my favourite strains that gives a very relaxed mind high that comes on very fast and hard. Other strains available are strains you'll find at most shops like White Widow, which all range from 6 to 10 euros a gram and are good on the price as well. I didn't like that they don't weigh the weed in front of you but rather just give you a bag, so you have to guess that they're not ripping you off. But if you're looking for a decent shop that sells quality weed at good prices, Birdy is a good pick.

The Northern Light is super (10e = 1.4 grams). Very good the Ice-o-Later (10e = 0.4 gram). Special Jelly hash (10e = 0.4 grammo).

Classy feeling kinda place. Took the opportunity for a large pre-rolled number which is a rarity. Won't be doing that again in a while. Just can't quite remember what was in it, or much else for that matter, but I was ripped. I couldn't get that Jacob's Ladder business out of my mind. I'll be coming back here.

I just moved to Haarlem from Florida in the USA and live down the street from Birdy. What a lucky find! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. They have free wireless internet access if you bring in a laptop and their espresso is wonderful. I've tried the Hugo, White Widow & Knetter and loved them all, though I seem to keep going back for more of the Knetter. The prices are much better than other places, approximately €6/gram. I really do need to start tasting their selection of hash, but I can't seem to get past the incredible weed. You have to go looking for this place if you're a tourist, as it is north of the train station (5-min. walk) and most of the cool stuff in Haarlem is south of the station, but it is absolutely worth it.
