Best coffeeshop in Amsterdam, in my opinion. They have some serious weeds, also for Pro-smokers.

Balou is not only a great coffee shop in Amsterdam, but it also has an impressive selection of weed and hash that will satisfy any cannabis enthusiast. One of the things I love about Balou is their knowledgeable staff who are always happy to recommend strains or help you find the perfect product to suit your needs. Whether you're a seasoned smoker or a newcomer, you'll find plenty of options here. The weed and hash selection at Balou is truly impressive, with a wide range of strains and products to choose from. They have everything from classic sativas and indicas to more exotic hybrids, and their hash selection is equally diverse. Another thing that sets Balou apart is their commitment to quality and sustainability. All in all, I highly recommend Balou for anyone looking for a great coffee shop with an impressive weed and hash selection. Their knowledgeable staff, commitment to quality, and wide range of products make it a must-visit destination for any cannabis enthusiast in Amsterdam.

Low key but don’t underestimate. Good coffee, good beats, super chilled staff. Feels like it’s someone’s local. Guess it’s yours, if you’re there.

Good hash, good hip hop music and nice staff. Not a lot of seating space at the moment while they renovate upstairs but it's not too busy there so a nice place to chill on your own or with a couple people.

Nice quality bud, especially the pre rolled. Ricardo was very friendly and gave us plenty of advice about the rules when smoking the herb.

Too many years ago I first entered Balou ! My memories are fantastic. The staff is amazing, even Fox. We now have legal weeds here in Boston but I look forward to a return to the BALOU soon. Hope all is well. Dan

My favourite coffee shop in Amsterdam. It's unpretentious. The workers inside didn't try hard to help us which was fine. The area upstairs to hang out is very nice. Everyone has taken a rolling paper, written something on it and stuck it to the walls. The music is often nice and it's not too loud.

Lovely staff. Affordable. Tried amnesia haze and blueberry haze and was satisfied with both. This place has a great mood, loved coming back here while visiting Amsterdam. The upstairs is the best part of this store!!!

Some great choices, good prices. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. Great vibe, music and décor.

Rodrigo Bastias - 7 years ago

Great location. Beautiful store. However, Lack of knowledge from staff. Cero customer service. Pre-rolls are a joke! Waste of money and time

The people were nice but I bought what I thought were four marijuana joints but they had little effect so I opened them up and they were mixed with tobacco. At the bottom it was all tobacco. Disgraceful.

Cozy. Selection is nice, and so is the manager. A bit small, however.

Nice place, a bit away from the crowded coffeeshops in the city centre, but still reasonable close to everything.

This place is wicked - it was right next to our hotel, so became a local haunt for my girlfriend and I while we were away. It has a really relaxed atmosphere, with a killer 2nd floor. The smoke is good here too, but for me the atmosphere was the selling point, especially at night. If you're planning on spending quite a while there, I'd recommend getting a seat downstairs - trust me those tight spiral stairs can be perilous.

Nice 2nd floor and staff

A nice and humble coffeeshop without the "ganja man, weed and greens and get stoned"-image. Popped in for some space cakes. I was not dissapointed. Quality all the way.

The only coffeeshop! My fiancee and I are true lovers of the herb and the atmosphere that should come with it. Don't tell your friends and keep it to yourself and keep this place a hidden gem.Katie & Chris. Balou.xcx.

A great place. A totally different experience from the coffee houses that cater to American college students. A laid back experience with a friendly staff. Free Wi-Fi. They were tolerant of my terrible Dutch. Other customers, mostly locals, readily strike up a conversation and/or offer some advice on sightseeing and rolling. If I find myself in Amsterdam again...this is my place.
