Rokerij

Posted on by

Now permanently closed by the City of Amsterdam, all three locations are gone. This review is for historical purposes only.

I tried to visit the Rokerij during the 2002 Cannabis Cup, and found it next to impossible to find a seat. This place is very popular, thanks to the dj spinning cool tunes, really good smoke and a nice large room in the back to chill and be seen by the hip set.

The crowd during the cup seemed to be an interesting blend of Americans, other foreigners and Dutch locals. If I could’ve found a seat perhaps I could tell you more. I even returned the day after the cup ended, and still found no place to sit and would’ve waited, but the thick cigarette smoke drove me out.

There are two other Rokerijs open now. One across from Central Station, the other at Amstel 8. All had nice interiors.

  1. Too crowded. for all the talk the selection was so-so. We were treated great, and had a beer and a bowl, but it was chaos on a friday night. Bouncer treated my woman and I well cleared a seat, hasseled loser kid with baseball cap on, but not comfortable. Dark clubby, not Cofffee shop style.

  2. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE The Rokery. We spent 2 nights in a row at the Leidsplain location. Good smoke, great service – on a Friday AND Saturday night, at that!

    Claudia, our server, is the coolest chick ever; she’s super cute – so cute, I would have let my husband go a round with her. (He’d love to have her, too!)

    LOVED IT! Can’t wait to go back.

  3. I used to love this place but after the last two times I went there I just can´t stand it. There is a guy in the staff with long dirty hair who is an asshole!!! He just scares the customers away. He treated me and everyone in the line like dirt! I can not understand how it´s possible that a nice place like that has staff like him. I will never go back there! And that´s what I´m telling everyone I talk to about this place with too.
    From 10 to 0 points. All because of him. Don´t go there! There is a lot of other places to go and spend your money. Peace and Love! /Cosmo
