About Route 99

Route 99 takes its name from its address on the Utrechtsestraat, a pleasant shopping and restaurant street connecting the canal ring to the De Pijp district. Since 2004 it has cultivated a reliable following among the neighbourhood's residents — a mix of young professionals, students and long-term Amsterdammers who value consistency and a low-key approach.

The shop is unassuming from the outside and comfortable within — a relaxed space where conversation flows easily and nobody is in any particular rush. The Utrechtsestraat location means excellent food options are within arm's reach before or after a visit, with some of Amsterdam's best independent restaurants and cafés lining the street.

The cannabis menu offers solid flower and hash at honest prices, typically €9–17 per gram, with a rotating selection that keeps regular customers engaged. Pre-rolls are popular with visitors in a hurry. Route 99 is an ideal base for exploring De Pijp and the canal district on foot — the Heineken Experience, Rijksmuseum and Albert Cuyp market are all within a 15-minute walk.
