Utrecht CoffeeshopAbout Hi/Lo
Utrecht coffeeshop two minutes' walk from Utrecht Centraal (Jaarbeurs side), open daily 10:00–00:00 incl. holidays since 2011.
Hi/Lo is a coffeeshop at Croeselaan 213 in Utrecht, about two minutes on foot from Utrecht Centraal via the Jaarbeursplein exit. It has operated since 2011 and is open every day from 10:00 to midnight, holidays included, which makes it a practical option for anyone looking for a coffeeshop near Utrecht station.
The shop sells cannabis flower and hash, plus edibles and oils. Entry is for adults 18 and over, and it accepts a passport, national ID card or Dutch driving license as identification. In line with the tolerance policy it sells at most 5 grams per person per day. Utrecht is not one of the ten municipalities in the Dutch controlled-supply experiment, so products come through the ordinary tolerated channel.
On Google, Hi/Lo averaged 4.2 stars from about 1,070 reviews in September 2026. Friendly staff is by far the most frequent review topic, with nearly 80 mentions, and reviewers from abroad often describe the shop as quick, easy and tourist-friendly with reasonable prices. Several reviewers mention paying in cash. The critical reviews are fewer; one reviewer in June 2026 alleged that English-speaking customers were given short weight, a claim that has not been verified and that other reviewers dispute.
If you are comparing coffeeshops in Utrecht, Hi/Lo's advantages are the location next to the station and the long daily hours; Andersom on Vismarkt, rated 4.0 on Google, is one alternative in the old town.
