Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

The best way to get them to lower their prices is to take your business elsewhere. Consumer information from places like the ACD should have that effect. If we keep buying the latest Super-Duper Haze for 17 E/gr they will keep selling it to us. As some old Latin guy said "buyer beware!"

Complain but don't buy.

Dont plan on goin in again - Unless they doing super duper deals!

Yea thats it! we should name & shame these places.

I liked barneys breakfast bar when it was on the corner , now its over the road the brekkies seem rushed ! there was nothing i liked better in a-damage than having pancakes wi maple syrup n a spliff o sweet tooth !!!but i agree that the prices have started going up and is gettin a bit touristy ! i feel that happens in many areas somewheregets a good rep , they get busy prices go up quality sometimes suffers ! i will prob still go go for my p/cakes in june lol

Im defiently going back to get my pancakes, Barneys is always my first stop when reaching Dam, the reason being: We all know prices are high at Barneys whether its for Brekkie of bud, but i have always believed the quality to be worth it, although some people would disagree, coming here first means i have no other place to compare the prices of Barneys to so after paying the price at Barenys everything else seems somewhat cheaper....

agree with liquidswords we the same breakie and fat spliff, breakfast fills you up for most of the day so good times, you know you going to get good food, yeah gears exspensive but what the heck,been going to barneys for 15years so.

lol Sir Niall, Derry would love that...

Their pancake brekky is the ONE tho!
After reading what some of you have written,
I'm on the fence - the green is priced ridiculously,
the food aint so bad I guess, coz I always did maintain
that when it comes to food, money should be be no object!

The first time in Dam, I had no brekky, tea, nothing - straight
on the plain with two friends (idiots the both of them)...
who just wanted to blaze themselves silly. I ended up regretting
going with these guys. The second time I went, was with
LiquidSwords - he showed me the Barneys breakfast, which
set me straight...

Guess its a good thing for the brekky... if a lil pricey

Guess its frowned upon for the green... tho quality,
its very pricey for what it is, but you'll buy a bud anyway!

Im a fan of Barnies Breakfast Bar.

But this place holds a little peace of my heart, it was the first coffee shop i ever went into back in 03. SweetTooth wow, that hit me up for a good Morning.

The breakfasts are second to none, been english i love to start the day woth a full english.. And dam dont they taste good, but yes a little to expensive..

It all depends what your looking for.. I mean Barnies dont pretend to be nothing they aint, they clearly are one of the most expensive on Hasj/Wiet and clearly the most expensive on food. But we all know that.. so you either pay for the qaulity of food or you dont..

I cant say much about there green, cause i like it, a little overpriced yes, but as the above posters have said. We keep paying it, they keep selling it.

A place like this will never shut, there will always be enough Amsterdam Virgins to keep this palce ticking over nicely. I mean if they sell 10 breakfasts they have made near 200Euro's right.. Profit..

They are a business, they are making money, we are still frequenting it.

I will be popping in on my first day for a full english.. so i guess im a Mug, but i go on holiday to let my hair down, Money is to be my last worry.. good time first, then get home and worry about how much i spent..

Peace

for their prices i want breakfast,a gram,10 euro note and a golden spoon(don't ask).....advertise a brekky anywhere else at those prices and people would laugh

WAY overpriced, haven't been in for few years, eversince i was sold some nepalese which tasted like it had parafin in it, wouldn't have minded the extortionate price if it was top gear which i was told it was. how can they justify selling a normal 6-7week flowering plant like widow or sweet tooth at more than 10e a gram. pure greed.

i got a g of amnesia haze 13euro which was nice.

i recognised the bud guy off the telly .he was on the amsterdam nights programme and he was a sound guy he made me a chocomel an said (the best chocolate milk in dam) it was nice.

overall it was boss sitting in there. Its in a good area and weed was nice just expensive tho.

It may have higher priced weeds, but I think their consistent quality of bud allows for a premium price... if it wasn't, the business wouldn't keep coming back.

I'll always have an affection for this place, but it could be hit and miss on the servers... at least one of them.

As for the food, always top notch... and I've said it elsewhere, that their menu is like their weed menu... priced for the premium and targeted to the higher paying customer.

Quality = price... or people wouldn't keep on comin back. You can only pull the hood over the sheep's head once.

The Red Cherry Berry I picked up in April looked and smelt the part shame it had very weak.
