Boerejongens Coffeeshop West Amsterdam — Attraction in Amsterdam

OK.. Been a few days since i went to the smoke session (12.00 1st Feb) so here's a little review.. Me and the GF arrived at the centrel shop (way too early first time do went for a cake n coffee) and we told to head upstairs. Once upstairs we were greater by Antonio and Marlies(think thats spelt correct) and one other american guy who lives in Amsterdam was on the session (sorry bro forgot your name) Smoke room is a copy room much like a humidor in Cuba... Relaxed but small

After introductions, Antonio went through the selection we were starting on... First Was The tangie G13 block, Great earthy flavours through the volcano and after a few bags was presently baked..

Next up lemon haze block, no this IS some tasty hash.. Starts with the same hash earthiness as the G13 but followed by a nice sour citrus taste.. (by this point I wasn't going anywhere in a hurry)

Next up was some flowers... Having purchased the black jack haze, Superamazin, amnesia and a cookie strain (sorry can't Remeber the full name) two days earlier from west boerejongens and all 4 of them being top shelf, I was looking forward to this one . Critical kush Was The strain and it didn't disappoint.... Such a good taste, Nice light coloured nugs and a real pungent kush aroma (found the kush in majority of other CS didn't have the best of any aromas, so this really stood out) ... At this stage Antonio produced one Of The organic additive free cigars to use for skinning with, the other chap knocked one up (while i sucked on the volcano some more).when passed the skin I was a little apprehensive about the cigar tobacco but on smoking it I was pleasantly suprised how smooth it was and how it didn't really tarnish the taste of bud!!

We continued on these 3 strains for a while before another bud was brought from down stairs.... This was strawberry banana I believe, the bud looked dense and well covered in crystals.

At this point the owner Of The shop paid a visit... But did not stop for long ( Sorry I forgot this ladys name too (bloody stoners hey)).

Unfortunatly I left not long after this and never tried the strawb as the Mrs really wasn't well ( genuinely ill as she don't smoke) but not before the doorman came say hello... (he's a big lad ain't he !!)

So to sum up my visit I'll say this

A great experience that anyone who gets the chance to attend should jump at, Antonio and Marlie's are both really informative and you can tell they both have real passion for the products. Venue is fantastic If not a little small but more than adequate for the purpose and them leather chairs are too comfy after a few volcanoes

I'll defenitly be dropping them an email before my next trip

Once again the farmers boys stood out head and shoulders above all the other shops I visited (only GA came close). Great shops, awsome informative staff, and now a great experience to...

I am divided with this place. On the one hand, It looks awesome, like a diamond bank, wood, cristal, golden lights, cordoned queues, very good looking. The staff in the counter are knowledgeable and friendly, the menu is good, although i missed some more american high end genetic options.

On the other hand, there is an extremely rude and unpolite 'bouncer' on a suit with an earpiece in the door, who really ruined the experience for me and made the place feel really uninviting, adding to the feeling of going to the bank or something. The place was not crowded or anything, mind you, and he looked like a club gorilla. He interrogated me as to what i was doing there (like, dude, what do you think i'm here for?? lol) and asked me for an ID although i am well over 40 and it clearly shows. I saw an empty staying area inside, so i asked him if i could stay there and have a coffe or something and smoke. He rudely replied that it is for smoking 'pure only', and some other random conditions, giving the clear vibe that he really did not want me to stay there at all. The staying room was cristalled, locked, and absolutely empty so i kinda passed. He then pressed me into getting into the cordoned queue or get the hell out his face. At that point i was about to bid farewell to his entitled unpolite face and leave, but the interior really piqued my attention so i endured and proceeded to get in the queue. And then, as the final delightful interaction with this really annoying person, he stopped me again and demanded i take my hat off, like i was going inside some kind of temple or something. I contained myself again, complied, and made my way to the counter. Got some of the top stuff they had, Kosher Tangie Haze, which as i said was pretty good, and got the hell out of there.

So, to sum up, great looking place and good menu, although maybe missing some more high end choices. The staff inside is friendly and knowledgeable. But the bouncer is really insufferable. It is not really neccessary in a place like that, gives a really bad impression to customers with his attitude, and also makes you unconfortable to...

Good Weed! Shame about the Xenophobic Staff Members

Boerejongens in my opinion is one of the best coffee shops in the city. Having visited all three coffeeshops, they have well trained staff that are there to help with your understand of the high that you want to achieve, is was one of the places to go, however, after my experience last night by one member of their team, I am doubting if we should return.

My husband and I are over here for 4 weeks to discover if we wish to make Amsterdam our permanent home. Although, we have been teaching ourselves dutch for the past 6 weeks & it is limited & as with everyone that learns a new language, struggles to implement what they have learnt. So despite our limited use of Dutch & trying to show respect, it was not enough for one member of staff serving us. Who's The body language and tone was as less than desired. With awkward smiles of other staff members, clearly showing their embarrassment at the situation.

Although Boerejongens promotes on its website that staff must speak dutch. I would have though that the Dutch Hospitality would also be a key driving factor towards customer service. I was disappointed to encounter such Xenophobic behaviour in a city that embraces multiculturalism.

I question if we would return to this establishment again given the service that...
