About Coffeeshop Papillon

Old-school neighbourhood coffeeshop on Van der Helstplein in southern De Pijp, open until 01:00 daily; Moroccan hash and a small lounge.

Coffeeshop Papillon is on the Van der Helstplein, a small square at the southern end of De Pijp, well away from the canal-belt crowds. Its website describes a wide cannabis selection, a friendly atmosphere and a lounge where you can smoke with a cup of homemade coffee. Google lists 08:00 to 01:00 on weekdays and 09:00 to 01:00 at the weekend.

Reviewers call it an old-school coffeeshop in the good sense. Moroccan hash, from classic styles to newer block hash, is mentioned as a strength, at fair prices. One solo traveller says she felt safe there, and another was given a free lighter with a coffee. As everywhere in Amsterdam, you need to be 18 with ID and can buy up to 5 grams; tourists are served.

Rating: 4.5 from 590 Google reviews (September 2026).
Watch for: a reviewer says the prerolls appeared to contain tobacco and that the room smelled of it, so ask for pure joints if you avoid tobacco.

Edible strength is the other recurring caveat. A 2025 reviewer ate three brownies without much effect, while noting their tolerance is high. Staff are named positively in several recent reviews, and the shop menu is posted on its website, which is unusual in Amsterdam.
