The Noon


Amsterdam Coffeeshop - The Noon Coffeeshop - Cannabis Cup 2002
Zieseniskade 22

The Noon is located between the Leidseplein and the Rijksmuseum, on a very quiet street. The shop is small but well-stocked, having a good selection of snacks (including American brownies and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups) and soft drinks. There is a pinball game, and every month the person with the highest score that month gets 10 grams of their choice weed. There is a large supply of good music. The owner of this shop is an American, and he has a job many Cup judges would envy. But it's not all fun, there are lots of ways in which running a coffeeshop is different from other businesses. Stop in, appreciate the Western decor, have a drink or a snack and chat about the state of the world. When it comes to selecting smoke, the Noon looks for weed that is correctly cured, meaning that your joints will burn without tobacco. Lots of bio weed here, including Edelweiss and Dusty and the yummy Tbizla hashish. There is a good stock of glass bongs, so you can smoke the way you do at home- but without the paranoia.

Take the 6, 7 or 10 down the Weteringschans street (which runs parallel to Zieseniskadel). Exit at the Rijksmuseum stop and walk until the bridge leads to the entrance of the museum. Move away from the museum down Nieuwe Spiegelstraat. Head left on the near side of the canal onto Zieseniskade. The Noon is ahead on the left, number 22.
