Rock-It

Rock-It looks out over Nieuwmarkt square and the medieval Waag, and there has been a coffeeshop at this address since 1980. It was Remember, then Boedhas, before becoming Rock-It.

The shop itself is small, but there is outdoor seating, and that is the real appeal: a coffee or tea in the sun, watching life on the square. Visitors regularly mention the friendly vibe and decent coffee.

The menu features long-standing house strains such as Sour Apple Diesel, Strawberry OG Kush and New York Diesel alongside classics like White Widow and AK-47. The hash list is good too, running from Red Lebanese and Nepalese to dry sift and moonrocks for those after something stronger.
