Little is a small basement club just downstairs from the sidewalk of Vijzelgracht, which is a metro contruction site right now, unfortunately not much appealing.
Little is a good alternative to the Mellow Yellow which is down the street. Good prices and friendly staff. Since not on the tourist beaten track, many locals come to buy their daily joint over here. Little is also not the place for everyone, however some people love it. Don’t bump your head.
The grass is very good and not too expensive – about 6 EUR per gram, and Bio Special for 7,50 EUR (on the picture). They also sell cakes, chocolate bon-bons and a selection of Moroccan hashes.
Little is located on Vijzelgracht, a block north of the Weteringschans circle, convenient to Euphemia Hotel which is just over the corner. See on the map of Amsterdam.

With a name steeped in ancient history and occultism, Abraxas is a coffeeshop with a definite hippy vibe. Located in a set of monumental buildings that used to serve as a restaurant and bar, Abraxas opened its doors in 1992 and has since become a key fixture in the Amsterdam coffeeshop scene.
Always know for its ‘publike’ atmosphere, the ban on alcohol in coffeeshops has actually done little to diminish this. The clientele is a good mix of expats, tourists and locals, and lots of chat can usually be heard over the music, which tends to be kept at a level to allow conversation. The soundtrack to The Rookies is itself a varied mix of reggae, rock and other tunes to roll to. The interior is nicely decorated and interesting to stare at, while seating remains at the usual Amsterdam coffeeshop level of wooden chairs at long, narrow tables.
