The interior is contemporary with a cozy smoking room that's comfortable without being cramped. The menu focuses on quality over quantity, with well-chosen flower options and a solid hash selection.

Tyson 2.0
Spuistraat 222, 1012 VA Amsterdam
Tyson 2.0 on Spuistraat is the Mike Tyson-branded coffeeshop that opened to significant buzz, offering a compact but potent menu with 5 varieties of dry-sift hash, 2 ice-o-lator options (€32.50/g), and up to 6 traditional hash types including Royal Maroc. The interior is small with limited seating — described as "buy and fly" by regulars. A second location opened at Nieuwmarkt 14 in January 2026, with global expansion plans into Marbella and Barcelona. The Nieuwmarkt location adds more space. Tyson 2.0 is worth a visit for novelty value and solid mid-range extracts.
Tweede Kamer
Heisteeg 6, 1012 WC Amsterdam
Tweede Kamer on Heisteeg is one of Amsterdam's most famous small coffeeshops — a tiny, always-busy spot off Spuistraat with a fiercely loyal following and a reputation for quality that far exceeds its physical footprint. The interior is cramped with limited seating; this is a buy-and-go or stand-and-smoke operation. The menu is compact but curated, with well-chosen flower and hash that punch above their price tier. The staff are direct and knowledgeable. Tweede Kamer has been a consistent presence on "best of" lists for decades. Essential for damlive.com readers wanting a classic Amsterdam experience.
Greenhouse Strain Hunters
Singel 387, 1012 WN Amsterdam
Greenhouse Strain Hunters on Singel is the flagship location dedicated to the Strain Hunters brand — the seed-hunting expedition project that made Arjan and Greenhouse famous worldwide. The interior is modern and polished with Strain Hunters memorabilia and documentary footage playing. The menu features the full Greenhouse Seed Co. lineup alongside exclusive Strain Hunters drops that can't be found elsewhere. The Singel canal location adds scenic value. For damlive.com readers interested in cannabis genetics and breeding history, this is a pilgrimage-worthy stop.
Abraxas
Jonge Roelensteeg 12 - 14, 1012 PL Amsterdam
Abraxas is instantly recognizable for its towering stained-glass window and quirky, psychedelic interior that feels more like an art installation than a coffeeshop. Located in a narrow alley off Dam Square, it draws heavy tourist traffic with its visual appeal and central location. The flower menu is decent for the price tier, with Dutch classics and a small premium selection that's worth exploring. Hash is basic but fairly priced. The crowds can be intense at peak hours, and the narrow interior means seating is at a premium. Abraxas works best as a quick-visit novelty for damlive.com readers — stop in for the atmosphere, snap a photo, buy a pre-roll, and move on. It's not where you go for a serious smoke session, but it's a fun inclusion for the "tourist bucket list" content.
