What is the Plug (Utopia)?
The Plug is a new(ish) chain of coffeeshops in Amsterdam, which now has three locations across the city. The first – known as Plug Utopia – is on the Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal right in the heart of Amsterdam. This coffeeshop chain is known for one key thing: high quality weed.
Is it worth visiting?
If you’re a fan of the strongest strains from across the world, then The Plug is for you. It’s not a particularly cheap coffeeshop, nor does it have the aesthetics of somewhere like Abraxas, but it does stock an unbelievable array of top class marijuana that’ll impress even the most experienced stoner.
Prices and booking
No booking required here. It’s unlikely you’ll want to spend a huge amount of time in the coffeeshop, but there are a few seats and tables available for relaxing. The shop should be accessible to most wheelchair users as there is a ramp heading inside.
Where’s good to eat near the Plug (Utopia)?
While you’re in Amsterdam, you have to go to Febo. This fast food chain serves typical Dutch snack fare out of self-service windows, like a huge, human-sized vending machine. A five minute walk up the Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal will get you there – and then you can snack to your heart’s content.
