Coffee or Coffeeshops ?🌿
As of last year, the city banned smoking in the streets the best way is to have a seat in a gezeillig coffeshop.
The Rookies Coffeeshop - located near Leidseplein, great staff and gezeillig.

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune
