attitude problemo
Have been going to this place since the late 90’s and although it has changed somewhat it is still the best all round coffee shop in the Dam. Cool music by day, pool tables, great weed, not so chilled by night…but that gives you the drive to head back into the RLD to find a more mellow smoke before everywhere closes.
i didnt feel remotely comfortable in this place. i had good reason to feel paranoid!! ;P
a lot of wannabe gangsters were floating about outside. it feels like a fight is gonna break out any second.
stay clear. stick with smokeys just across the road from central station. is it just me or is all the staff really camp. either that or its the good shit they sell having an effect on my mind
peace
what a dump! staff really unfriendly and weird!
2.50 euro for a beer? And after you have to pay for going to the toilet to…….
Clearly they depend on people that dont stay, so they can rip them off…………
criminals
its good
avoid this place! bunch of cocky angry black haired israelis running this place. wannabe dicks. as far as smoke goes……..hey..i trust the street dealers in nyc more than these pigs. bad vibes from staff. tourist trap!!!!!!! beware!!
shit weed-perfect for the loud mouth yanks who seem to multiply on every visit to the dam…
I was shocked at such a establishment.I was charged5 euros a beer and had to pay for a pee. Very Unfriendly staff who dont make you feel comfortable at all.I had the feeling I was being ripped and will never ever ever recomend this place as long as I live. Total rip off artists who have forgotten the concept of global travel and humanity/saaaaaaaaaaad
expensive, very slow service, but a wicked place to hang out. good location, staff were friendly as well
minimum purchase required here which i !!dont!! like toilets are dirty and the food was rubbish as well so please avoid!!!
It’s an even worse hotel. I only stayed because everything else was booked. The plumbing didn’t work and the bathroom smelled like shit. Weed sucked, everything was over priced. I did like that they had pool tables. Also, the space cakes I got there didn’t even work.
visited amsterdam in february 02 and this place by far had the best smoke , cali mist for the greens and the best part was the hash, but unfortunetly can’t remember the name . went there every day on our 6 day trip, definetly hit this place up
This place is a real tourist trap run by gangsters. It’s okay to sit in, for first time smokers, as everything is really accessible. However the place just feels like a dump, and you feel like you are being watched, to see if you are dumb enough to leave any of your valuables behind. Service was poor.
There’s an original coffeshop. Different than the others. You can smoke, drink a beer and play pool at the same time. I liked it maybe because i’m from Spain and we have lots of pub’s and bars whrere you can play games and drink but…………you can’t smoke……..There’s a floor with larges sofas where you can smoke while you’re looking at the street, and you can sleep The famous “siesta” in Spain. Imagine the spanish feelings in that sofa while you’re smoking a joint…………It was really special do “pajarismo” (feelings you have when you’re stoned in spanish) in that sofa in “La Canna” coffeshop
An amazing place with a thrilling top floor nook of a room that I (we) highly recommend. The “host” of the place was an absolute riot, a scatterbrained yet diligent workhorse of a stoner who helped us get a matress up some flights of treacherous stairs… I think. Meet a stranger, go in on a room, and bond with your weed at La Canna.
the place was absolutely awesome, friendly people, beautiful buds, nice pieces, great view from the top. good for sleeping off a knock-down pass-out high as well
DO NOT GO HERE
They are rude. You cannot smoke unless you purchase thier weed/hash. Spread out over 3 floors and what a waste of space.
Really the badest Shop i have been. The ambiance is nothing for people who want to chill. Very loud music. The toilet cost 50 cent each use and you have to buy weed starts 20€ under 20€ you cant buy some.
Forget it…
Awful place! Only thing going for it is the cool view of the street from upstairs.
Got some white tiger here, this grass is not to be missed, lots of pool tables & seats upstairs……
Freindly table waiting staff,,, check it out

la canna is very big – and that makes it a bit uncomfortable. there’s not much of familiar atmosphere.
anyway, the jungle-styling of the rooms is nice.
We came to this shop every morning to smoke a breakfast blunt. I thought it was really cool because if you get a window seat then you can just smoke and watch people go by. Good smoke, and it wasn’t too crowded.
Just got back May 04 La Canna was visited by us on more than one occasion friendly waitress service good weed great upstairs to people watch.
