It's unfortunate to note that this coffeeshop has been permanently closed, possibly due to actions taken by the justice department or new local restrictions. There seems to be a trend of governmental efforts to reduce the number of coffeeshops in Amsterdam. Some of these regulations may seem irrational to us, such as the rule prohibiting coffeeshops within 500 meters (approximately 1640 feet or 546.8 yards) of a school or college. The idea that a mere 100-meter difference would effectively protect students from exposure to cannabis seems questionable at best.
It's a perplexing situation, and we invite you to share your thoughts and opinions on these regulations!

If you're temporarily working or studying in the country, you can obtain proof from the city council and request a GBA Extract (GBA-Uitreksel). This documentation will help demonstrate your eligibility to access these establishments.
