Nice and close to the flying pig, smoke was ok but what really put me off was the dealer, very unfriendly and didnt really seem to care as we spoke to him until we handed him money then he basically nodded at us then went back to his moody ass ways, it ruined it and we didnt go back

try the s5 from blues-better than lemon haze,but also 2 euro more expensive. think they are almost the same

I've been to BB 3 times before, but never purchased any weed, so this time gave em a try, and i'm glad I did! The quality of the bud at BB is better than just about any cafe, and i've been to all the best ones, the SS Haze is top notch, and the Blueberry wiped me out, definately worth a try!

Ive walked past this place many times over the years but ive never been in,Mainly due to the bad press its had i must say! + the impression i personaly got from this place was boring/unhelpfull & over priced! a typical tourist trap,& i dont intend on going in either! not with popeyes/dampkring & rockerij just down the road

you should give it a try next time you are there. its true that the dealers arent too friendly, but they have never been rude with us, I mean, they are not as friendly as in the Dampkring (1) Mellow Yellow or other good shops, but they dont stare at you or try to rip you off. the weed is of very good quality and you will definitely find some nice strains/tastes you wont find in any other shop in the city, try it!

Yeh man the bud here is okay (IMO) and they are not as rude as a couple of others that spring to mind. The OJ is pretty nice2.
Its not a bad shop considering it is a more tourist area and worth a visit.
Dont forget if you dont like whats on the menu you can walk away same with the service.

enjoy

Hang on, your criticising this place for being a tourist trap - when you like dampkring.....eh

Only went in on a couple of occasions, nice interior downstairs with comfy seating, music and lighting was subdued. Got some excellent bubblegum from here - lovely high which gave me a great feelgood and energy boost with each joint.

not my faourite shop, but not a bad shop by any means & i found the dealer to be pretty helpful & saw him take a lot of time explaining how things worked and what to try when some jet lagged but very excited new arrivals came in.

Minimum 10E purchase, think i got about 1.4g of bubblegum for that & i was very happy with that buy.

I dont like the dampkring chain really! but i did like the cheese they sold when i was over last queensday,Ps the old pink floyd shop is the only one out of the dampkring chain ive even been in during my 9 years for the record mate,I did like the old pink floyd as ive had some great meets there in the past! sadly like the other guy says its all memories now,Hence why i skipped this place during the 2008 cup

yeah, i loved the way Floyd's used to be. I stopped by on my oct trip & was far from impressed with what they had done to the shop.

But found a new favourite in Hill street blues which will be my base camp in future.

How did you find queensday weekend? my first trip took that weekend in & thought it was a brilliant time to be over there, cant understand why so many prefer to go for 420 a little earlier on in the month. The dam is one big party for Queens night and Queens day.

Kingdoc · Post by **Kingdoc** » Mon 9th Feb 2009 09:37 pm

Yea i dont go for 4-20 either,But i do know people that start there 10-12 day trips around then that also takes in queensday

,Yea queens night & queensday were awsome! not much sleep thou but plenty of weed/beer/tunes & above all great food

Ps i tell a lie without knowing buddy! ive actualy been in there 2 times,Once like ive said already & the other time was last queensday on a cheese hunt! the place was like a building site & i had to buy & fly literaly so it cannot be called a visit really

,Lol they were no seats/tables & workmen were even working around the dealer!

I probably will be tempted to go in for a leftover from the floyd's menu - Ummagumma hash, which was really nice & i forgot they had on the menu when i was last over....but i couldn't stand to stay in there it would just piss me off remembering it how it used to be.

Im standing firm on never giving Bulldog or grasshopper any money though

The bulldogs (singel & leidseplein) are only good for a drink/seat & a surf,I make a point of not going to grasshoppers thou
