Hello Going back to Amsterdam later on tonight, theres 4 of us going out. Apart from the obvious Red Light District incorporating a debauched hour in the banana bar i'm struggling to remember decent nightspots, all suggestions welcomed, clubs, bars, strip clubs. Your thoughts please guys??? Thanks

if you like to smoke in a chilled,hareem/morrocan atmosphere with some lovely beats then go to rokerij on leidsedwarsstraat,its really relaxed ,serves beer aswell.!the red light area is grim, stay away ,theres a lot more to amsterdam than all that shit believe me!

Just walk around the Red Light get your fill then disappear of to a decent coffeeshop - de rokerij 1 is not bad - but get a few too many tourist for my liking, I like number 2 and 3 better. The Greenhouse Effect coffeeshop at the bottom of the red light drag is one of my favourites, however for me THE best coffeeshop in town is De Dampkring it's from the centraal area halfway between Centraal station and Leidseplein just off a small side street. Fanstatic place. Another fav but one that doesn't serve alcohol is the Abraxas Coffee shop. The Greenhouse and Dampkring do have some exceptional weed for sale. But there are some smaller places that have the best weed in town even though the shops themselves ain't great. After living in Amsterdam for a year or so you learn these things Got say it's the one place in Europe I would live actually - not just for the easy availablity of weed either! Just don't be a sucker and go to the Grasshopper or any of the Bulldog shops packed with tourist wankers who are on their arses after one toke! Get stoned, pissed, drop an half an E, get further stoned, a few beers, drop the other half, a few more joints and then just cling on to whatever you can to get you home and a few more joints and a beer to aid sleep . . . next day repeat . . . Oh the fun I've had in Amsterdam! ;D Sunday Morning in De Dampkring reading the newspaper with a fruit smoothe and a spliff was always highlight of the week for me!
