01Kanarie Club
café51 BellamypleinPowerWork 100
Kanarie Club In the foodhallen in the west. Beautiful huge space with lots of places to plug in
r/AmsterdamNovember 2022 02The Hoxton
caféHerengracht, GrachtengordelWork 100
The Hoxton has a nice hotel lobby. I'm not sure what their hours are like for laptop workers, but I assume they're open late. They have plenty of space upstairs and downstairs.
r/AmsterdamMarch 2022 03De Balie
caféKleine-Gartmanplantsoen 10Work 100
De Balie is a Dutch organization that produces independent journalistic programs about art, culture and politics. De Balie is located at Kleine-Gartmanplantsoen 10, near Leidseplein in Amsterdam.
For great places to work in AMS that don't serve cannabis, I'd recommend to check out De Balie (cafe/theatre on Leidseplein)
