The Silver Haze at 6.50/G was very good and recommended to all fans of this strain. We also sampled a nice Jack H. for a little less. No complaints about the quality or pricing. The "grams" though, seemed a little short when compared to other shops and were not weighed out for you to see. There's a buzz-in door and the previous contributors described the inside pretty well. The couch area towards the back was comfy. In the mornings the shop was pretty calm and seemed to be patronized by the Babe on Duty's friends. We never felt unwelcome or rushed. In the evenings the guys pack the place, but again we didn't feel unwelcome. The youth of Alkmaar seem to congregate in the vicinity, but they weren't out and about in the mornings and we never had or witnessed any problems. There seemed to be a fairly consistent Politte presence in the station area. Alkmaar has a nice CS scene and, if you're fresh off the train, it's a good start for an Alkmaar crawl. Very much a reggae shop, which I like to an extent, but a little variety would be nice. We visited this shop 3 or 4 times over a three day visit to Alkmaar in June 08. Right across from the train station and the weed is great! The ambiance kind of sucks. There was a large group of sketchy dudes hanging out and the guy behind the bar wasn't very amicable. This is the kind of place to go in, get your goods, and leave. Location is why this shop is so good (across the ns station), the weed varies from poor to acceptable, rarely get good/ great weed here. (Can park in front of door but never do this because of people hanging around the shop which I don't like / trust). Very close to the train station. I've been to High Time a couple of times now, normally to get some stuff and to take it home. It is quite small and is placed in the living room in one of the houses that lie at the Spoorstraat. The inside painting is in African/Jamaican style with a pool table, some computer games, a nice recliner, a table with chairs and a bar at the end where you can get quality smokes for a reasonable price. They of course sell known grasses like Silver Haze, Jack Herer, PP, White Widow and Shiva. All the grasses are 11.50 euros for 2.2 grams. The White Widow will set you back 11.50 euros for 2 grams, instead you should try Sticky Fingers it is almost the same and you get 0.2 grams more, this is not much but everything counts. Their hashes are more of the relaxing type and are differently priced. The girls behind the bar are quite kind but not eager to explain things about their grasses, but they do know what replacements they can give you when some type of stuff is sold out. But don't think it is a shop like the xtravaganza ones you see in Amsterdam. It is just a straight forward coffeeshop where you can get good stuff for a fair price... How to post comments
