Three floors, each with its own character
The property dates back to the eighteenth century, but inside it exudes anything but age. The exposed brick walls and warm, natural colours give the interior a quirky feel – rugged, yet inviting. Each floor has its own energy.
Ground floor - the bar & first contact
First floor — the social lounge
Second floor — peace above the hustle and bustle
On the top floor, the volume drops. This is where you come if you truly want to relax – with a good conversation, a book, or simply letting your thoughts wander. The view over Haarlemmerstraat is an added bonus.
“We want you to feel at home with us. So if you want to know or need anything, just ask one of us. We'd be happy to help you. Yes, really!”
The menu: more than you expect
Many coffee shops limit themselves to a glass of water and perhaps a bag of crisps. Coffeeshop Amsterdam does things differently. The snack and drinks menu is substantial enough to keep you going for an afternoon — and the milkshakes have become something of a legend in their own right. In addition to classic snacks, Coffeeshop Amsterdam also offers a selection of CBD products from Amsterdam Genetics — from kombucha and iced tea to CBD bars and gummies. So, for those who don't smoke but still want to enjoy the atmosphere, there are plenty of options here.
Cosiness: an audience from everywhere
What sets Coffeeshop Amsterdam apart from many other establishments is its mixed clientele. Tourists on their first Amsterdam adventure sit alongside locals who have been coming here for years. Backpackers in their early twenties share the space with people in their forties who know what they want. Music plays softly in the background – never too loud, never intrusive. Conversations spark up naturally.
The staff actively contribute to this. Not distant, not bored, but engaged. Whether you're coming in for the first time and have no idea what to order, or you're a regular guest who just wants their usual spot – you are seen. That makes the difference between a transaction and an experience.
A coffeeshop in Amsterdam isn't a place to rush through. It's a place to settle into, to savour, to chat and to enjoy. Three floors of Amsterdam, all at one address.
