About

GREY AREA

An American-owned institution since 1993 — tiny, fiercely independent, and consistently rated among Amsterdam's best. Grey Area operates on its own terms: a compact room, a focused menu, and a reputation built entirely on quality rather than marketing.

XRED EYEZ Guide Note

Grey Area doesn't need to explain itself. The queue outside does that. Go with patience, no large groups, and respect for a small space that punches far above its size.

Boerejongens

Amsterdam's most polished cannabis retail experience. Staff in bowler hats and three-piece suits serve from interiors of marble and brass inspired by the Amsterdam School aesthetic. Boerejongens employs cannabis sommeliers — not salespeople — each requiring approximately two years of formal Cannabis Career training to reach full competency.
