Little Amsterdam's new westside location is a gem, neatly furnished and discreetly tucked along Macadam Avenue at the north end of John's Landing. The lobby of the shop stands out, a rehabbed office space with plenty of natural light and an accommodating staff. The enclosed storefront lacks the foyer's visual charm, but sleek fixtures and on-screen menus showcase product and provide tips on cannabis shopping. This is one of the more aesthetically pleasing shops in town, with a broad selection of carefully displayed wares. The bud on hand is mostly high quality standards: your Cinexes and Blue Dreams and Durban Poison, and a few of Eco Firma's plants are usually on hand. With clean design and notably friendly service, Little Amsterdam is highly recommended for out-of-towners and initiates looking for a clean, straightforward experience. A third location is scheduled to open later this year on the south end of Macadam.
