    We are going to Amsterdam in July and I would like to know what is the biggest coffeshopp. We are about 25 people, all smokers :)
    Some guy told me that usually cofeeshopps are very small, you can not find tables...
    Where should we go?

    Yes, this can be a problem. For 25 people its hard to find tables. You can try the Bulldog in Leidsplain, Grasshopper 2, Smokeys or LaCanna. My recommendation is Bulldog in Leidsplain or Grasshopper 2. Its a great atmosphere and its big enough.

  3. Homegrown Fantasy on NZ Voorburgwal is large and so is Rookies near the Leidseplein. HF is one of my favorites for many reason, their size being one. The staff is very nice, example - during the Cannabis Cup they were offering free samples of their entry, with the use of their cool vaporizer if you wanted. Last time I was at the Rookies (11/05) they sold alcohol and weed. I don't know if coffeeshops are allowed to do that anymore. They also have pool tables.

    There is a coffeeshop just off the Leidseplein with a huge squiggly arrow on the outside of the building pointing to their entry. You walk downstairs and there is a bar, a huge are to sit, of course the budtender, computers you can rent for a nominal fee (if there's someone at home you want to assure that you are still alive and well) and fun people to talk to. I swear I don't know why I can't remember to write down their name. I just look for the big arrow. Did I mention they sell fabulous hash? Maybe that's why I don't remember...

    There are tons of coffeeshops, many of them very close to each other in the Red Light District and on Haarlemmerstraat near Barney's. Splitting up becomes an option then since you can each buy some goodie to share when you meet up again.

    I would recommend purchasing some weed at a coffeeshop and then heading with your crew to the Bulldog bar in Leidseplein. There is a Bulldog coffeeshop in the same building (the door on the right -- goes downstairs), but I doubt they will have room for 25. The bar upstairs (and you have to exit the coffeeshop to enter the bar -- keeps the two legally separated so they can sell alcohol in the bar), however, has plenty of room for I would say around 75-100 people. They have great music, two bars, a pool table and a very friendly staff. The only other place in town that I know of where your crew of 25 will all be able to sit comfortably and smoke is La Canna. It is located at Nieuwedijk 121. La Canna is a coffeeshop, and does not sell alcohol any more because of a law that went through early last spring that forbids an establishment from selling both alcohol and marijuana in the same establishment. These are the only two places I know of where you and your 24 buddies will all be able to enjoy a nice smoke together. I hope this helps!

  5. Thre are deffinately a few coffeeshops that can be capable of holding this amount of people.

    We have rated them all at my website.
