Still havent voted cos I can't make up my mind :oops:

Decided that my top 5 are the 1st five I visited after getting back this time, cos after various trips over 7 years ive narrowed it down to my favouretes, plus spending the summer here allowed me a lot more time than usual to explore coffeeshops and get to know them. top 5 is Boerejongons/Bij, Dampkring, 2e kamer, Utopia and Voyagers. out of those I know two need to go but don't know which :cry:

My top 6 right now, no order all special in their own way, every visit must include them: hSb at market, voyagers, barneys, utopia, funkey munkey and 1e hulp... Green place would have in this group, but the recent discussion has soured me....will still pop by in november just for a confirmation.

How much did you produce?

It's gonna have to be (in no order)

Utopia
Voyagers
1e Hulp

It's not easy to make a decision like that but the others that are up there for me (Dampkring, Graal, Paradox, Ballonnetje, Grey Area) have occasionally lacked something in vibe or quality of product that those three have never fallen short of for me

You know it. Definitely didn't vote for Voyagers last time; and apart from not having a garden with frogs in (more than likely kermits illegitimates aiit :-) easily beats the toermalijn for consistency and mashing me up till I have only navigation and 3fts worth of spacial awareness available to my core systems. :mrgreen:

Grey Area - gear

Amnesia - the "high school" type party atmosphere and the awesome BT with the short dreads (2004)

420 - Great bar at the time with great Sour Diesel.

Hope to put Voyagers in there from all the great reviews I have been reading about. Utopia, too, maybe?
Not long now....

Voyagers (still number one)

Utopia (early mornings will be missed)

HSB in the market (why you ask, well voyagers was always rammed this trip so this was my next near choice, the special was okay but its a great location and I like the staff, it could have been Green place but it was always too busy so I bnf to HSB and it grew on me)

I actually enjoyed the time I spent in Greenhouse aswell :shock: infact there was a good 10 shops that was fighting for third place :lol:

Amsterdam was banging this trip, a love rekindled 8)

......I actually enjoyed the time I spent in Greenhouse aswell :shock: )
Also enjoyed GH up on Harlemmerdjk as well. Voyagers is about 1000 times better on most fronts though quite frankly. They have some interesting hash. They win on that score.

Prix D'ami is another place that is growing on me as well. They had loads going on for judges at the HTCC. Really enjoyed hanging out there in the evening too. :mrgreen:

Bluebird is the shop that went up most in my estimation during this trip. They had vapes for the judges of their entries on the way in. I got talking a bit with the guy dispensing them and he was cool. 8) Always see him around the shop. The atmosphere is always light and happy there too. I like that. The glass downstairs in the cabinets is worth a look btw.

So, my current list would be Voyagers, De Graal and Bluebird edging out a host of others including Paradox, La Tert and Utopia.

During my trip in December. Voyagers was way ahead in customer service. Never had service like it in the dam. Pure class dunno what the bud tenders name is ( English lad with a oriental look) but he showed us the menu with pride and on more than one occasion. He never rushed complete laid back vibe. As soon as he placed a jar back he was like you gotta check this out too lads. Top bloke. I never really got what all the fuss was about voyagers. The weed was/ is always consistent in my view but this trip completely changed my view. Really enjoyed my time spent there.
2nd Solo. Spent hours in here just playing cards. When the tender/server came to clear away our ashtray or cups etc he just asked if we fancied another drink. Which we always did. Nice service not pushy.
3rd grey area. Let me have a good look at the buds even though it was busy and did some half grams when asked. Plus their shackzilla was fucking lovely.
