Anticipating Amsterdam’s smoking ban
From July next year, the Netherlands will bring in a smoking ban that may or may not affect its coffee shops, depending on how things pan out. In preparation for the worst-case scenario, those hippies at the Guardian bring us the 10 best Amsterdam coffee shops. My tip: eat at the Supperclub while you’re there. You will be hungry.
UPDATE: Catherine points out that there’s only “one actual coffee shop on the list”, which makes me guilty of passing on dodgy gear.


There’s only one actual coffee shop on that list! The rest are all regular bars. I’d also add De Zotte on Raamstraat (off Prinsengracht) to that list though - ridiculously long list of Belgian beers plus the best steak I’ve had in the city.
