Coffee Shop Protocol

The Custom
As coffeeshops are not allowed to advertise, some travellers find it confusing and are unsure what to do upon entering one for the first time. Most coffeeshops will have a weed menu, often in the form of a book on the bar, from which customers can make a selection. You will then be presented with a plastic bag with your marijuana or hash inside and are free to leave with it or smoke it on the premises. Customers are welcome to smoke their own weed in coffeeshops too, though in this case you will be expected to purchase a drink or something as a courtesy.

Keep Your Head
One very important thing to remember is that hash and marijuana available in Amsterdam's coffeeshops is likely to be much stronger than most visitors to the city are used to. It's advisable not to choose the strongest thing on the menu, as what is good for inveterate smokers could prove too much for those new to the city, and may even ruin your night.

For the same reason, it is a good idea to stay clear of pre-rolled joints and 'space cakes' if you are unsure as to your tolerance. The amount of cannabis they contain varies and can often be quite a lot. A good rule of thumb is: if you're unsure, ask the staff - they will usually be happy to offer advice and recommend something that will suit.

Coffeeshops
There are many coffeeshops in Amsterdam, and they differ as wildly in style, approach and atmosphere as any other type of establishment. Below is a sample of some of the more popular, unique or influential coffeeshops to be found in Amsterdam.
