    The first and only coffee shop we’ve been to while in Amsterdam and it was a good experience overall. We wanted to try their edibles and didn’t know much about the different options, the effects, etc. The staff was nice but at some point we felt like we were bothering which didn’t made us feel comfortable enough to ask all our questions. We tried their brownie and shared it, I personally had 1/3 and it was enough to almost knock me out two hours later. I won’t describe how both disturbing and fascinating the effects were but I can’t help thinking that I am glad I didn’t have more. Make sure you ingest a very small portion if you are not used to it, because the actual portion can be a way too much for some.

    Good small coffeeshop where you can relax and smoke good weed and listen to good music which is not loud (normally shops play very loud music) A bit pricy though. As a local this is the second time I visit this place because it’s not that touristic. The reason for 3 stars is also because employees (not everyone) could be more friendly to their customers. Smile more, greet people and be more respectful to your foreign customers if they don’t know what rules you have, would be my advice.

    You will eventually come to know every coffeeshop has a very specific set of rules, unavailable to the general public, but known to the staff. This is known as the Double Dube Scheme. This coffeeshop rules include no smoking inside of you haven't bought anything off the smoking menu. Which is like crime in a multistorey car park....wrong on so many levels. Mean-spirited for one. Discriminatory anti-competitive behaviour illegal under EU Competition regulations 81 and 82 for another. Anyway, nice hash.

    Coffee lover... Just look at the menu. Do I need to say anymore? Blue Gelato for me thank you, what would you chose? It's a small little place with very big menu, so you can just let the day melt away. "Stay Wavey" #StayWavey

    The old church has the most friendliest staff in the whole city of Amsterdam. We where the last week 3 times there and every time it was a pleasure to speak to the budtenders. Plus the weed ist really good and they have a prerolled joint named Hulk that's a delicious experience. It's expensive but worth it!

    Way than a bad place, besides trying to force you to smoke their weed to stay in the place, they even dont allow you to stay comfortable on the table and prices way bigger than average, rude people working here as well. Useless coffeeshop

    Great little coffeeshop. Good vibes, great menu in a handy location

    This coffeeshop is a hidden gem and a must go . They’re definitely one of the best because their menu is always updated with top shelf flower Dutch/ “Cali” featuring brand names and packs , extracts , top quality hash . They also provide a rosin press , you can do your own rosin from the flower bought in the shop . Overall a coffeeshop you don’t want to miss .

    Me and my friends had a great time at the old church, the staff were excellent and product was lovely. Big thanks to the Italian dude and the Ukrainian girl for all their help.

    Strange vibe would be the best way to sum this place up during my visit. The music was super loud, the lighting (at least where I was by the window at night) wasnt great. Their menu was quite limited but their products looked and smelt the part though I was there to test one product alone and that was their "moonrock" or "firecracker" joint, cant remember specific names but it was a pure joint, layered in rosin and then rolled in kief for €15. I compare this to their neighbour coffeeshops equivalent and it just wasnt as good. It wasnt as oily or gave that rosin taste, I suspected it may have used hash to make their rosin as it was an underlying common lemony hashy taste to it, but still very smooth. 4/5 for effects, 4/5 for taste, 5/5 for price however as I have sampled worse similar products for €5-€10 more per product. Overall the vibe just felt strange to me, I felt quite isolated and out of place and this never happens to me. Maybe it was the custom at the time as the budtender was completely fine and friendly, just the overloud music and dim lighting forces me to give this place a 4/5. I would still recommend stopping by and checking their menu as I have heard and seen good reviews in the past!

  • 5/5 Lorenz B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place. I went in asking for papes and they just gave it to me like napkins in a Restaurant. I came back the next day and bought 2 Strawberry haze pure joints. Not a cheap option, but i would still highly recommend it.

    I went to the old church a few times while on my trip to Amsterdam, lovely vibe inside and good space to smoke! However, on my last visit I decided to not sit in this time and move around short after, at another vendor I asked to get it checked just to see I was bumped. Extremely unprofessional staff to be shorting my product. Don’t know how much I could have lost out on…. If you want all your green go somewhere else

    Awesome shop. Super cool location. Staff was such a help - super friendly. And my limited knowledge of cannabis, it seemed like they had a great menu.

  • 5/5 Michele F. 2 years ago on Google
    Great environment, welcoming and with great variety...The 5 stars are purely deserved...enjoy ✌️

  • 1/5 Alisa P. 1 year ago on Google
    Long time living in Netherlands and never before faced with such a rude service at the coffeeshop. 0 respect, 0 hospitality, overpriced weed. The only good thing about this place- that you can get a freshly squeezed dub, that’s all. If you searching for a better quality weed in touristic Amsterdam- choose the Amsterdam genetics one.

  • 5/5 Fiona E. 2 years ago on Google
    Great little spot and super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Will definitely be back again!

    Nice little shop to chill and relax. The menu had a lot to offer and the Milkshake was great! I’ll definitely come back.

  • 1/5 Frank-Jan van T. 1 year ago on Google
    Bad service at the desk. Instead of being addressed and helped, I was ignored. This is your typical just-for-tourist-overpriced-weed-shop.

  • 1/5 Anna P. 1 year ago on Google
    if it was possible I‘d give zero stars

  • 5/5 Oleksandr D. 3 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    A very cool coffee shop with very cool staff who will always tell you what to choose, if you have a desire to smoke, be sure to go there, the vibe atmosphere, reasonable price and always smiling staff make this place delightful
