Happy Days

Set along Amsteldijk in Amsterdam’s Rivierenbuurt, Happy Days sits right on the river Amstel in a calm, residential pocket of the south city. The area has tree‑lined streets, waterside paths and a local rhythm that feels a world away from the busier centre, making this a convenient stop if you’re exploring De Pijp to the north or wandering the riverbanks. Open since 1989, it’s a long‑standing name in this part of Amsterdam‑Zuid.

Happy Days is very much a neighbourhood spot with a low‑key storefront and an easygoing welcome. Inside you’ll find a compact ground‑floor counter area and, downstairs, a lounge with a pool table and TVs for the football - the sort of place regulars drop into and first‑timers feel comfortable asking questions. Prices lean friendlier than the city centre, reflecting its local focus. Staff are approachable and happy to guide you through the choices.

Cannabis Menu

Happy Days runs a varied, regularly updated menu covering flower, hash, pre‑rolls and edibles. Expect a mix of familiar Dutch classics and modern strains, with occasional US imports. Examples reported by visitors include Permanent Marker, Skywalker, Kilimanjaro and Cali Kush on the flower side, and Lava Cake, 24K and Super Polm among the hashes, alongside pre‑rolled options (including pure) and simple, measured edibles like brownies and cookies. As always, availability changes; ask at the counter for what’s current.

A Great Stop in Rivierenbuurt

Rivierenbuurt’s riverside setting makes Happy Days an easy addition to a relaxed day in Amsterdam‑Zuid: pair a visit with a stroll along the Amstel, grab a coffee or snack nearby, or continue north toward De Pijp’s lively streets. The quieter character of the neighbourhood suits anyone looking to step away from the tourist bustle while staying within reach of central sights. With Amstel Station close by, it also works well as a start or finish point for exploring the south and east of the city.

Why Visit Happy Days?

Choose Happy Days for a calm, local atmosphere and a straightforward experience that doesn’t feel like a tourist trap. The seating downstairs invites unhurried hangs, and the team are used to helping guests match products to their preferences and experience level.

If your Amsterdam itinerary mixes canal walks with a few coffeeshop stops, Happy Days is a smart addition in the south. Its riverside location, welcoming vibe and broad menu make it a reliable choice for both curious first‑timers and returning regulars.
