About The Smoking Duck
The Smoking Duck is one of the most recognisable coffeeshops in Delft, partly due to its memorable name and partly due to its prime location near the iconic Markt. The interior leans into the duck theme with subtle humour, creating a distinctive visual personality that sets it apart from more generic Dutch coffeeshops. It draws a steady mix of TU Delft students, tourists visiting the Nieuwe Kerk and Vermeer Museum, and Delft residents who appreciate the consistently good product. Staff manage the tourist influx on busy days with patience and professionalism without losing the warmth that makes it a favourite among locals.
Menu & Products
The menu at The Smoking Duck is well-balanced, covering popular sativa and indica strains alongside a rotating selection of hybrids. Hash options include quality Moroccan pollen and one or two premium additions. Edibles such as space cakes and cannabis-infused sweets are usually in stock, which appeals to tourist visitors exploring Dutch coffeeshop culture. Pre-rolls are popular and reasonably priced. Soft drinks are on hand, and the shop is comfortable for a visit of any length.
