A true Amsterdam gem. This coffeeshop has been the center of a political storm, because it has to close over a new rule that says coffeeshops can't be close to schools. It has been saved from closing throughout 2016, and the future is still unsure. So visit while you can. The weed is just good, nothing too amazing. But you come here to visit the jungle upstairs, to play some chess or listen to music downstairs. To chat with the (surprisingly cute) people behind the bar. It's like entering a living room, where you come to chill. If you're disrespectful and obnoxious, please go to the Red Light District and have your fun there and the people of Amsterdam will cheer you on. But if you're interested and respectful, go to the Graal and you'll find family here.

The best coffee shop in Amsterdam! At first I ran past this shop because it looks very unsuspicious, but inside it's very comfortable and relaxing. In contrast to the most coffee shops you can sit in comfortable chairs and sofas while looking at fishes, toads and a chameleon as well as listening to relaxing music. Furthermore the staff is really really nice and will help you picking the right thing for you. This coffee shop is perfect for you if you are searching for a place to chill without the common rush in the big commercial coffee shops!

Best place to be when you are in Amsterdam. Friendly, inspirating people, nice staff, great products, beautiful ambiente, a lot of wood, fresh music. Everything you need. I miss you guys.

A very cozy local house place very reasonable priced. A nice quiet inside hall with a strong WIFI and sockets making it perfect to work. Great coffee and fresh orange juice ( fresh @ 3.5 is a steal). The gentleman behind the bars was extremely courteous and helpful. Highly recommended! Thank you

Wow no way De Graal is closed! Sooo sad! Hope for the quick reopening! Love you guys you are the best in Adam!!!

This magical corner reminds one of the friendly and permissive 70's. Until a few years ago, few tourists knew of its existence, as most visitors were locals. Lately its popularity has skyrocketed due in part to the internet, the systematic closing of Amsterdam's coffeeshops by succesive center-right wing governments and the fact that tourists go ever deeper into the city & explore further and further away from well-known landmarks. Beside it's impressive size (3 different rooms spreading over 2 floors), varied chilled music, the availability of several board games, magazines, newspapers and books, the personnel is particularly friendly and helpful (even late in the night), the prices are more than reasonable and the products are prime material. Not to mention the diversity on menu. A complete must for anyone and everyone who visits Amsterdam and is a fan of getting high.

Absolute gem! Gorgeous, eclectic antique decor with a peaceful outdoor seating area in the back. The owner is so nice and helpful. He recommended a cheese pastry which is one of the most delicious things I’ve eaten in Amsterdam. From the food to the atmosphere to the service, this place is amazing. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

Lovely little oasis in the middle of Amsterdam. The elder man and lady who run this place are exceedingly kind and gracious. They brewed a lovely fruit tea and apple tart, and the backyard garden nook is magical. Thank you for a wonderful rest stop!

This place is perfect for chilling and playing games! The weed is also very good, the personal is very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere invited us to stay for hours and hours 😀

Good range of chilled music, ranging from Bob Marley to Snoop Dogg, along with chameleons and other reptiles in glass tanks for everyone to gaze at after a few joints. Coffee was the best coffee I've tried whilst smoking in a coffeeshop... By far the best coffeeshop we saw in Amsterdam - the comfy couches made it. Highly recommend for a late night smoke before heading off home to the tv and bed.

After I read a favourable review this was the first coffeeshop I visited in Amsterdam. On two subsequent visits to Amsterdam I made a point of choosing a hotel nearby as I found the atmosphere here very special. It seems to be a coffeeshop for the "locals" who are actually an international clientele. Although I am no connoisseur of the herb, each time I visited, half a joint was enough to render me as relaxed as a valium dosed cat sleeping in the sun. The varied music is on tap from YouTube and I was thrilled when one of the co-owners agreed to play one of my favourite albums - although this was a "one off" and not a service they usually offer as far as I know. It's a ten minute walk from Rijksmuseum or a fifteen minute walk to the Rijksmuseum if you have had a smoke and have not fallen into a canal. Definitely worth a visit.

This coffeeshop is situated in "De Pijp". I love everything about this place. A mixture of locals and tourists make this place friendly and welcoming. The music is great. There is an "upstairs" part as well as two rooms in the back where musicians meet informally to jam. It is opposite the Sir Albert Hotel and partially hidden with Ivy. It is MUCH bigger inside than it looks. Please remember this is not McDonalds. The service can be a bit slow, but that is part of the vibe in this place. Enjoy!

Really good weed, cool place and cool staff. You can borrow guitar, bass, piano and drum fir using them with your friends in the coffee
