Food and service are great in top of a fabulous ambiance. Lemon cherry gelato, lemon haze and a pure purple haze joint are to be had here. All excellent. The chocolate chip coconut cake is one of the ones worth writing home about. The staff is knowledgeable and super chill. This a great place to get high. Thanks Abraxas! read more

This is absolutely one of my favorite coffeeshops in Amsterdam. They are right off tram 2 & 12, you can't miss it. The staff is very friendly and they all speak English. They have a great menu that I find to be very affordable. It's always a good vibe when here, and they have clean bathrooms, which is a plus. I normally order a fresh mint tea, which is fresh spearmint leaves in hot water or a flat white. When you order a drink, they also serve it with a mini stroopwafel. While in Amsterdam, definitely add this to your list read more

I guess an alleyway is the perfect place for a shop like this, and if you have been to Amsterdam you probably know what type of shop it actually is. Mind you, it isn't as if they happen to be hidden away - they don't - but it is still cool to visit one down an alley. I found this place to be rather nice, and the staff were also quite friendly, and rather pleasant as well. Oh, and they also have some nice seating here for you as well, which I like because it means that you can simply sit down here and relax. read more

We walked by this place while strolling along the Amsterdam canals on a Saturday afternoon in March, and I remembered the name from a Yelp search I did on coffeeshops, so we popped in to take a look. There are two levels, and the upstairs was filled with guys lounging around, and it was totally filled with smoke. So smokey that it was kind of hard to see, so I immediately went back downstairs. We didn't buy anything, but I took a look at the menu card they had on the side, just to see what they had on offer. Oo... they have edibles here! Both brownies and muffins. But the brownies were made with hash, and the muffins were made with weed. Someone once told me that hash is bad, and weed is superior, but I've never tried hash before, so I dunno. I went up to the counter to see if I could sneak a peek at the edibles, and I only saw small, plain-looking muffins wrapped in cellophane. They didn't look as appetizing as the chocolate marble cake from De Dampkring, but I dunno, because I didn't try any. read more

I'm not a coffee-drinker myself. So clearly I was just here to enjoy the atmosphere and accompany some friends that were particularly interested in getting some coffee. This little shop (actually a smaller offshoot of a larger establishment) is unsurprisingly VERY laid-back. They are in no rush to do anything, but once your presence is acknowledged they have what I would assume was a fantastic selection if I had any sort of experience with this sort of thing, which I definitely don't. The helpful guy behind the counter will get you whatever you need, and you can either take your purchases to go, or up a spiral staircase into the cozy, all-wood area seemingly populated only by single dudes. This is basically a tree house entirely for relaxation. Just FYI though, you're not going to be up there jamming out to Phish; they played nothing but hip-hop from 10-15 years ago, and personally, I was LOVING it. It's been a while since Mr. Cheeks played such a prominent role in my life. A couple of warnings: 1. Make sure to read and follow the directions on the edibles. They are no joke. 2. Don't spend all day here. It's easy to relax, but Amsterdam is a beautiful city. If you can stand up without panicking, go exploring. As much as I like this place, a park is highly preferable. read more

When in Amsterdam, go to the original coffeeshop: Abraxas. First, I'm not going to lie. We were clearly tourists walking into a herbal cafe. This is a novelty and feels quite sinful coming from the uptight USA. But my hubby and I were re-living our college youth on one of those lovely couple trips we take annually. So we were living in a legal and acceptable manner outside of the states. Basically, we dived into the local flavor, guilt free. We highly recommend it. (To those who may know us, Don't Judge Us Too Harshly. YOLO.) We ordered the muffins and brownies. We only wanted to try edibles. Muffins were a bit dry and overpowering in flavor. BUT the brownies were seriously AMAZING. We had 1 each (5 EU each). Taste, texture, and total sensory explosion was amazing. Flavor wise, I could have eaten a dozen, it was so rich, moist and delicious. I highly recommend it. If we ever are in Amsterdam again, we will definitely go back. read more

This place is great! It's huge, spread out over three floors, very chill vibe, and they have the best fresh mint tea I had in Amsterdam! Also their bathrooms are very clean. read more

One of the best and friendliest coffeeshops in Amsterdam. You can use the Vulcano on request and their bio Appel juice it's not bad. Prices from €8 to €15 read more

Abraxas was our first coffee shop experience when we got to Amsterdam (thank you Yelp). Turned out to actually be a short walk from the place we were staying. We didn't really know what to expect heading in, and I must say it's a great place to "break the ice" for your coffee shop experience. The people working here are very friendly and very knowledgeable. We ordered a small treat and a few espressos to enjoy and went up the spiral staircase to a room to ourselves. It was really nice, and relaxing. Also their goods were fabulous. We made it to 2 other coffee shops in Amsterdam (Blue Bird and Grasshopper) and both times we wished we had just gone back to Abraxas. We did in our three days in Amsterdam get to Abraxas three times in total. It's also not a touristy place. Highly recommended. read more

Hash milkshakes and weed brownies! This place is amazing.I have to stop in every time I head to Europe. The floors are made of glass and its a few stories high so it can get trippy along with the big huge tree youre sitting under. cant wait to go back! The food is brilliand and a huge selections of beverages! right downtown! LOVE! read more

Fantastic woodwork (built in curved benches, rustic table tops, etc.), nice multilevel layout with teeny tiny precarious spiral staircases, mellow vibe, great hot chocolate (they give you warm milk with a gob of dark chocolate on a stick that melts as you stir!). The guy at the counter selling their other offerings seemed to actually be somewhat helpful and not condescending (unlike some other shops) and helped out the folks trying to decide how they wanted the rest of their evening to play out. read more

Located down a narrow and quiet side street, this easy to miss coffee house came recommended to me prior to my trip abroad. It is the perfect place for first time visitors to these types of establishments especially if you are unsure of the etiquette and don't want to stand out like a complete novice! Its been a popular venue in Amsterdam since 1992 and it has developed a beautifully chilled and relaxing environment in which to enjoy a coffee, some delightful baked goods and of course a toke on some of the many varieties of weed they offer, all with wonderful and inviting names such as Hawaiian Haze, Orange Bud and Juicy Fruit. You can buy small bags of the stuff or try individually rolled joints or maybe buy a hash pipe from the onsite shop. Spanning 3 floors each with a different atmosphere and theme as well as a small outdoor seated area, the floors are connected by a rickety spiral staircase, which takes careful negotiation if you have spent an hour or so sampling the delights. There is a variety of seating from the wooden stools outside to the comfy couches indoors and with mosaics on the walls and reggae coming from the speakers, it all goes to create a great Amsterdam vibe. Although I had heard that the staff could be rude and unwelcoming, I found the complete opposite, they were friendly and helpful and so I found myself returning more than once during my short trip to this amazing city. read more

I love the furniture, which is very low to the ground, natural-looking wood. You can see the grain and the knots and bark from the trees. When you go up the spiral staircase, you almost feel that you're entering some kind of mystical tree house. This is on a quiet street near all sorts of other wonderful places. I have wonderful memories drinking hot chocolate and mint tea here while watching the World Cup games. read more

Abraxas is my first morning stop while in Amsterdam. Great hot chocloate good tunes without my mellon thumping when I leave. Top notch products and service. Never a hassle like other shops who shake you down as you arrive and leave. read more

As a New Yorker in town, this is a real step above most coffee shops. Chill Lounge, playing great 70s funk music, outdoor seating..in a funky little secret alley . a nice bar that just happens to be all about cannabis read more

Yay! This place is what it is and I have no complaints. I read about it in my guidebook, as it is well-known for their good reputation and quality. There's plenty of seating upstairs (but you get there by ascending a really narrow winding staircase - it's actually pretty scary if you're afraid of heights and/or uncoordinated). Don't have much else to say :) read more

Sweet staff. Big coffee shop with plenty seating. Product is quality and prices are comparable to all the other coffee shops in the area ..tranquil setup and design..good music too. I'm happy I came across this place. read more

First discovered Abraxas back in '95 and it really makes me smile every time I think about it - so many good memories every visit! I have to give it a shout out for being off the beaten trail, awesome opening hours, for having great music on each floor, for having crazy decor to enjoy - watch out for the spiral stairs if you've been sampling - and having staff that are super accommodating. If reaching the upper floor leaves you spaced out, try the menu :D Make it a must-do, it won't be you last trip! read more

This a good place. It's all the same shit in the center of Amsterdam, so dont expect too much. Grass is better in my garden at home. I love Northern California. Although an enjoyable time, I would rather be at my home smoking and having a coffee. Tourist trap Amsterdam coffeeshops all over this town. Nice woodwork here and that made it feel very homelike. read more

best hot chocolate ever! A very cozy, smaller 2 floor shop with upstairs lounge. Great place. Best hot coco I have ever had, and with a fresh stroopwaffle on top. :) read more

Didn't appreciate little shit behind the bar trying to short change me. Other than that the downstairs was OK. Selection of gear OK. Drinks rather lacking, poor selection and got a expresso when ordering a Americano. Plenty more cafes to choose from. read more

Cool, little spot not far from Dam square. The prices are not bad either. The shop is very clean and has a few spots you can sit outside to enjoy the day. If you would rather sit in a cozy room, try the upstairs. The staff was helpful and provided a good expatiation of menu items. read more

A tiny little place. Close to everything. Lady behind the counter was very helpful. Very low key.

Very chill coffee shop with delicious hash brownie space cakes - unlike other reviews I found there were plenty other women (not just dudes) relaxing upstairs read more

pretty cool spot with tons of sitting room

Just came back from Amsterdam last week. Abraxas was amazing. Considering that I have not smoked in almost 25 years(Because of my medical profession in N.Y: Random drug testing), the bud tender at the time(Think his name was Brian? not sure) was quite helpful and knowlegible as well. What a great guy. I explained to him my situation and he guided me into the right direction. Purchased some purple haze(Awesome). Then worked up to some Morrocan Hash(I think it was Super Pollum: Not sure) Just like the old days. Forgot to mention about the waitresses: Great service and they knew how to make an excellent hot chocolate. I recommend the dark chocolate: Not spiked. What a great experience in this coffee shop. Definetly will be back on my next trip. The staff at this coffee shop takes courses at the Cannabis College and at the museum as well to stay fully educated about their merchandise. Have not been to all of the coffee shops in Amsterdam, but this has to be one of the best. read more

I loved this place. The best Jack Herer in the city!

The staff at the bar is really not nice at all. There are two bartenders and one has turned her back but right in front of me and the other one is making juice in front of the machine. I said excuse me and she is like "I'm tending something here that's why I have my back turned to you.." With a smirky face. I think that is not nice and an unprofessional attitude. There is no reason to think that the staff is going to be nice to you if you visit. There are actually many coffee houses around that are much nicer. read more
