Café de Oude Wester in Jordaan

The music is great. The Hachee is amazing; the gravy😋😋. The pancakes are great!

I walked past this place and went in. It's a huge place, the atmosphere is great, not stuffy at all, and the owner is a super nice guy. I had a great meal, drinks, and lots of laughs. I'll definitely be back, thanks for a great evening, Mayk.

The food is okay, but not at these prices. €23 for a chicken fillet, €12 for a pancake. The drink prices are the highest I've ever seen (e.g., €5 for a 0.2l Coke). The service is okay, although the atmosphere is a bit unprofessional for the price range (the one star for service refers to the prices). Overall, unfortunately, the value for money is not at all right.

Tried the hut spot here but wasn’t impressed. Service is nice. Lovely indoor space.

The food Tasted great, the service was also great. And i will Definitely visit it again!

Margarrhita pizza was frozen pizza. Sauce and cheese were low quality. Had arugula instead of basil and no oregano. Garlic toast was bland. Place was outdated.

Delicious food. Friendly service. Top.

An atmospheric cafe. Smooth and nice people who work there. A must in the Jordaan! Worth repeating 😊

We went late at night to get some coffee and ordered some cappuccino. Most of the places weren't serving coffee that late, but they did in Oude Wester Café so it was a warm experience on a very cold night. The ambience is great, the decorations are cool, the waiter was super kind. And it's near the Anne Frank House so if you wanna take some minutes to relax in the middle of a walk, go to Oude Wester!

You must buy the ticket well in advance.

Told we were too early for an Anne Frank House visit. We popped in here for drinks and had a lovely meal together afterwards. They kindly held our order as we visited. Really friendly, welcoming and nice food. Thank you

We were treated so well, a comfortable unrushed atmosphere. Cheers to Mike for making this group of gals feel welcomed.

Fun little cafe with Dutch food to enjoy! A locals favorite! Friendly staff and reasonably priced and near Anne Frank Museum!

Today I stopped by Café d’Oude Wester, a small café located on the corner opposite Westertoren, one of Amsterdam’s most important landmarks. The atmosphere of the café is full of vintage charm, warmth, and plenty of natural light. What impressed me most was the coffee corner by the bridge over the canal in front of the shop. The view here is like something out of a postcard. I ordered a cup of hot coffee and a glass of fresh orange juice and sat watching people go by under the shadow of the elegant Westertoren tower. The faint sound of the church bells added to the atmosphere, making it feel like something out of a classic European movie. The drinks are of good quality, the service is friendly, and the prices are reasonable compared to a premium location like this. It’s perfect for those who want to take a break, take a deep breath, and truly absorb the spirit of Amsterdam. I recommend sitting at a table by the canal, enjoying the gentle sun and cool breeze, and letting time pass slowly – just like everything else in this city.

Expensive and not good food. Decent service and atmosphere.

That's what it is...for the tourist

Good place for a quick bite to eat and a beer.

Mi hija adulta y yo comimos aquí una tarde de la semana pasada. Había hecho una reserva, pero era totalmente innecesario. Me gustó la decoración y la ubicación. Los servidores no eran demasiado amables y la comida estaba bien. Estaba bien para lo que estábamos buscando, pero podría haber sido mejor. Teníamos pizza Marguerita y una tortilla (que estaba bastante cocinada)

A wonderful cafe with lovely vintage character, I had the ham cheese and mushroom omelette which was fantastic, I would happily go back here.

Another excellent place to eat in Amsterdam, the food is good, the drinks are good, the service is good, attentive and the atmosphere is very pleasant 👌🏽👍🏽👏🏽🤤😋

Pasé a cenar. Tuvimos un servicio agradable y buena sopa de guisantes. Algunos intentaron entrar a beber solo, pero fueron rechazados. Escuché a la camarera decir que solo servían comidas. Un revisor anterior dijo que solo podían pagar en efectivo, pero no era cierto. Usamos una tarjeta. Volveríamos.

Nice Cafe, big menu, there are local food, pizzas etc. Service was fast. Prices ok.

Never go there! The setting and location of the restaurant might make you want to go there, but it's not edible at all, it's not defrosted and it's dangerous to your health.

Little place but great food. Lamp chops were awesome. Worth a try.

Our order was beef stroganoff, but they mistakenly brought us goulash and insisted that it was beef stroganoff. The receipt also listed it as goulash.

We ordered a dish that came with coffee – the coffee arrived quickly, but we waited 55 minutes for the food. Staff ignored us when we tried to get their attention, even though it was obvious to everyone around. When I approached a waitress to express my concern, she didn’t understand English at all. No one explained the delay. Other guests faced the same issue – some were even yelled at and threatened with the police. We were never warned about the wait time. Absolutely unacceptable service.

Goed om wat te drinken maar niet om te eten helaas. We hadden gekookte en gebakken mosselen, waren helemaal stuk gekookt en smakeloos en de gebakken mosselen zaten in een ketjap sausje en waren niet lekker. Helaas een slechte ervaring zonde van je geld.

To flee! They don't even know how to make a simple burger, the meat, fries, salad, tomato had a disastrous taste and smell €17 for a frozen and poorly defrosted burger!

Restaurant with variety of food. We ordered local food and it was pretty good. Tasty and well made.

Underrated! Nice service and good food.

Place you must go Love the food and beer Great service

Comida deliciosa, sin esperas, servicio agradable. Nos encantó que tenían auténticos platos holandeses. El ambiente era agradable, la licación ideal.

Great early afternoon stop for Irish Coffee!

A honest option for dinner if you are close to Anne Frank museum. The soup was a bit disappointing because tasted like those artificial ones. However, the bolognese pasta was good.

Warm place. Atypical decoration. We feel at home. We ate there at midday and had coffee around 3 p.m. The two moments spent were very pleasant. Top service and quality products. We recommend! THANKS

Was closed for normal closing time. “We close when we want”

Avoid! The setting makes you want to settle in but the dishes are at best tasteless or even bad (we're talking about hamburgers, kroket, fries, etc.). And then all of this is very expensive for the quality offered. The service is friendly but not very efficient. Certainly a place that benefits from its geographical proximity to the Anne Frank House. So flee.

Highly recommended place to have a good time chatting...very good music and the place is decorated very well.

Very nice restaurant with fast service. However, the dishes served are not particularly good (even if they are not inedible…).

Walked in here due to an emergency. The staff is a rude, ragtag bunch. I have no idea what kind of food, because we turned around and ran away, but what was on the plates looked like tourist food. There is a lot of fun to be found a little further along the Jordaan.

Really old Amsterdam cafe. Tasty dishes on the menu. Something for everyone.

Oude Wester is a fairly spacious and comfortable restaurant, located very close to Anne Frank, on the River side, typical Dutch with beautiful decoration. We went for breakfast, it is a good option because of the variety of dishes, pancakes, eggs, omelettes, coffee, and good-sized juices. 5/5 The decoration (we went in December) is beautiful, I don't know if it stays this way the rest of the year but it is very cozy and with a pleasant musical atmosphere. Regarding the attention, nothing particular, they lack a little emotion to serve tourists since I assume it is their largest clientele.

Fuimos aquí para un almuerzo con amigos, el servicio era pobre y muy lento. La comida estaba bien una vez que llegó, sin embargo una comida llegó diez minutos tarde. El servicio fue realmente decepcionante, el personal no era amable / acogedor en absoluto

Comió aquí después de visitar la casa de Ana Frank. Increíbles bocadillos y café, recomiendo encarecidamente los paninis. Es muy limpio y el personal es amable. Muy buen lugar para probar si eres un extranjero.

Atmospheric place with nice service. The food was tasty except for the ribs, which were dry as a chip.

Lovely little corner Cafe restaurant near the Ann Frank House. Sit by a window if you can, to watch the people going by and enjoy the view. We loved it so much we went twice! Had the best peppermint tea, croissants and jam, crepes, chicken soup and ice cream. Lovely and cozy atmosphere. The owners are wonderful.

Great place and great waitress but don't take the pizzas they are FROZEN and really not good !!!!

Cozy and atmospheric, good service. But very expensive. Two cappuccinos and two apple pies with whipped cream eur 23.

Bathroom old, pizza fronzen in microwave, weak food, mid atmoshpere

Worse pizza I ever ate, bad service she was a karen, and also biggest tourist trap

Too expensive for the normal quality and poor service

We love the food, the authentic ducth pancake. The staff are so lovely and very helpful.

Bad service, one of the drinks never arrived but did get charged. Refuses to serve tap water even when already ordering other drinks.

OK for a small hunger. We had the traditional pea soup and panini. The taste wasn't outstanding, but it was ok. Price-wise, a bit expensive for the portion size. The service was quick. They were mostly friendly, but the grumpy face of one waitress didn't fit at all. Ambience: old but with a certain charm. The toilets (further back you could see into the kitchen) were in the basement. The entire basement (probably including the kitchen) definitely needs to be renovated. With all the broken tiles the whole thing looked very unclean.

Nous avons très bien mangé. L’accueil est agréable et la décoration est super. Les omelettes sont délicieuses ! Seul petit problème, ne pas pouvoir payer en carte bleue. Mais distributeur juste à côté. Est-ce juste un problème occasionnel ou bien récurent ? Donc paiement uniquement en espèces. Dommage

Mixed experience. Waitresses where extremely pushy to try to get the table free again. Owner "hovering around" discussing and pushing Waitresses, not the best relaxed ambience. MISERABLE 200 cc drinks instead of 330. Plenty of better places in Ámsterdam.

Good service, nice place in general Tho, as a tourist I wanted to try the Famous non sweet pancakes Turns out, big mistake Too oily, I understand they didn't want it to stick to the pan But it was just tasting and dripping oil everywhere I should have asked for another dish..

Very average. Service was not good. Wouldn’t recommend and it’s pricey for an average meal.

Excellent food, nice Amsterdam restaurant and very friendly service.

Nice atmosphere, amazing service and this is why I put 4 stars instead of 3. Food is nothing special. With this price it's ok, but expect better food.

Nice cafe and great menu. Simple food and good prices. The food tasted good and the service was pleasant. No waiting time to speak of.

This was an amazing find. The food was gorgeous and service was fast. The decor is lovely and very quaint. We actually got engaged here and it was just perfect We will be back

Excellent pancake apple, bacon, syrup. And actually someone in the friendly service speaks Dutch!

Absolutely amazing! Walked into this restaurant as we needed a toilet and was greeted with such welcome that we stayed and asked for the menu! Jamenica was amazing!

Walked in to this restaurant by accident, and so happy we did! Food was incredible, atmosphere was on point and can not praise Jamenika enough! Never been greeted by a nicer waitress in our lives. 5 stars!

Rustic café near Ann Frank's house Ideal for eating on the go during a day in Amsterdam 😉

Nice location with very friendly staff. Atmosphere is nice, not very hip, but cozy.

Amazing service. The waitress was super friendly. The atmosphere was really nice. The food was good.

Very busy point of the city. Uncomfortable chairs. Fast but impersonal service. Reasonable prices.

There were three of us there and we wanted to share one tomato soup (tasted okay, but small and €8) and a pizza funghi with additional salami. The result was that we got two pizzas and the announcement was that it was ordered and that is what we paid for! I wanted to offer that we at least pay for the Funghi pizza (without additional salami). After lengthy and sometimes loud discussions, we paid for drinks, tomato soup and a pizza and left. Conclusion: it's better to starve than to go there again

¡Sopa de pollo casera! Los propietarios eran gente encantadora, gran servicio y buen rollo! Bonita vista Ms del canal y cerca de la casa de Ana Frank!

4 euros for a cappuccino from the machine. 10 euros for 2 dry croissants. 14 euros for a pancake. It is even better to buy your own pancake batter at the nearest supermarket. Not recommended!

Unfortunately, not a very atmospheric place I can only rate the food because we only had coffee and beer, but the atmosphere was great

We stopped in for pannekoeken, because... Amsterdam... cafe... The Amstel was ample and not too expensive, the spinach and goat cheese pannekoeken was not great, frozen spinach (which was crazy as we just came from Noordermarkt). Much better options around.

Wonderful meal, service and atmosphere

The restaurant has a good location and therefore attracts tourists, so it was quite busy. The food was very bad and too expensive. We ate well everywhere in Amsterdam, but there it was bad and not recommended. Too bad!

An excellent experience. The service is impeccable!

Very welcoming place with very nice and friendly staff, there is a mixed cuisine, excellent Dutch cuisine, I recommend it to everyone

Very atmospheric and delicious😋

Way too expensive for what you get. The atmosphere is relaxed and cozy. And a nice point too

Muy buena comida local. camareros era servicial y amable. hice una reserva en línea, pero no era necesario. Gran vista viendo pasar a los lugareños. Muy recomendable para una cena tradicional sin lujos.

The waiter was very helpful and friendly, and the chef went out to ask our opinion about the food. They made a small mistake, giving us 2 soups instead of one, so the second one was for free. Also very delicious and pleasant music. I tried Hutspot for the first time and it was simple but tasty!

Enjoyed it that much we returned for lunch another day. Found the staff lovely and food great.

Yesterday evening we celebrated a friend's birthday with you. Had a great evening with you! Thanks for that

By chance, we ended up at Cafe De Oude Wester. A relaxed café in the Jordaan, at the corner of Prinsengracht/Rozengracht. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff is very friendly. Glad we got there early because not long after, it filled up with (day) tourists. We had a delicious lunch and left happy.

Had a delicious meal, made a reservation and got a great table in the middle! Fast service and very friendly service and owner! After dinner we even had the opportunity to put together our own playlist👌🏻 definitely recommended!

Excellent food, most of the young ladies are very customer friendly. With the exception of 1 lady who just barely threw our menus on the table, never once said hello, made eye contact or asked if we liked it when she came to collect our plates. That's a shame because the other ladies are doing a great job. The food is fine, nothing special but just tasty

Friendly service, but it is better not to eat here. Microwave stew from Lidl? Steak with salad, also Lidl quality.

Everything is average. Not good, not bad. If these are your expectations when you arrive then all will be fine.

So the staff is great, but the food is not good. We had a cheeseburger and vegetarian lasagna and frankly the cheeseburger steak is bad, the taste has nothing to do with beef, the color too and it was dripping with water, the fries filled with oil. The vegetarian lasagna was not very good and was dripping with water and the middle was cold while the edges were burnt, too bad.

We took a moment of rest here during a day of walking through Amsterdam. Just recharge ourselves (and the phone). Ate a delicious salad and had a drink. Nice cozy atmosphere and not too busy.

Unfortunately the prices at €11 for a panini are not justified at all. We were very disappointed about that. The bitterballen at €8.50 for 6 pieces was also very expensive, but they were very tasty. The toilets were shockingly dirty.

Nice location on the corner, we got the chicken fillet special (22€) and it was awesome! Nice staff, friendly and efficient. Dinner special came with a nice garden salad and hot fries. Amstel bier on tap (8€ large)

Me detuve aquí para cenar antes de una visita a la Casa de Ana Frank. Servicio amable, pero la comida era absolutamente promedio. Tuve el pollo satay - salsa de maní promedio, pollo de calidad promedio, papas fritas de calidad promedio. El vino blanco de la casa era mejor que la media. Aprecié la camarera hospitalaria, pero esta no era mi mejor comida en Amsterdam.

We stopped in on a whim and we are so glad we did. The service was great and the food was delicious. We loved the Tomato Soup and the pancakes are yummy. A great place to grab a quick meal for a good price.

Nice food good staff!! Weeks hard

Wat een leuke zaak !! Goede bediening ,we komen zeker terug, Eten was heerlijk!! Met vriendelijke groet de familie Oosterhof

Nice decor, but €11 for an almost empty panini... it's a steal.

Hier ff op terras gezeten aan de drukke rozengracht maar dat is tot daar aan toe. Maar om voor n (klein) flesje Wieckse rose €7 te vragen is voor ons ff teveel van het goede. Bediening verder goed maar het kan te gek ook. Wij slaan dit de volgende keer over.

Good service. Got the chicken soup, and it was really good. It tastes like chicken noodle soup.
