It may not be one of the higher profile shops, it may not even be one of the better shops, and it's definitely a "locals" hangout, but it will always be my favorite. I've been to Amsterdam four times over the past eight years, and I always spend most of time at the Sevilla (I may not buy much there, though the Red Lebanese hash is fantastic and cheap). For one thing the proprietor is as friendly as your gonna meet, and a good friend of mine (so I may be a little biased). Just chat him up a bit and he'll remember you, and is usually pretty accommodating with music and drinks and things like that. I even got him to blast some Sepultura (who are also fans of the Sevilla and have frequented it) plus the place has character. What some call seedy and dark, others call charming and cozy. There is currency from around the world on the walls (my own Svensk kronor hangs right by the register) and the music is pretty varied (though reggae predominates) and there are always opponents waiting at the foosball table. All in all, the Sevilla is a fantastic place to go hang out once you've bought some tasty overpriced pot from one of those "stuffier" shops. Though let's be honest here, everyone's got the dankness. As for people bitching on pre-rolled spliffs: dumbasses! Why on earth would you set yourself up to be cheated like that? Of course they're crappy! Learn to roll a friggin joint already!

Sevilla was the first coffeeshop I ever visited due to its proximity to my hotel. The chap behind the counter was very friendly, providing us with some medium-strength 'Jamaican' for 8 euros / 1.5g. If you're not used to strong weed then this is a very good bud to start off with. It will get you high but won't send you loopy. There is a fussball table and two arcade machines to keep you amused.

This is a dark little hole in the wall place not too far from Rembrandtsplein. It has one of those "invisible" menus one has to press a button to illuminate. I only sampled the pre-rolled skunk joint and it was just not very good. We only made a stop here to watch the football on television, this place is small and probably only good if you are looking for a quick place for a smoke in this neighborhood.
