Coffee & Bites in Weesperbuurt/Plantage

Very friendly and efficient staff. The sandwiches were okay, and the coffee, on the other hand, was really superb! The kitchen and interior could use some modernization to meet current hospitality standards.

Wonderful little place with a nice variety of breakfast and all day items. Beautiful place to sit outside and cozy inside. I loved it

Sat outside and had a lovely breakfast, perfect spot in the morning sun.

Great spot in the shade for brunch. Lots of options. Great service.

A lot of dirt, absolutely everything is in very bad condition, the food was prepared badly, I ordered an omelette and it had raw egg in it. Dirty walls, flies rest on them. Dirty glasses and cutlery, smelly toilet (There were no hand towels, there was just a simple towel where everyone wiped their hands). I do not recommend.

Amazing place ☺️ The food was great and the staff was very friendly, including a lovely cat!

There were quite a few stains on the walls and ceiling, and the kitchen was very dirty. The grease stains were stuck into the steel in the kitchen; that doesn't seem hygienic to me. Maybe clean the gaming area.

One of the best espresso I’ve ever tried

Lovely breakfast spot. Staff were friendly. Makes really good coffee. Hubby had the Complete English breakfast while I had dutch pancakes.

I love this spot for brunch! Ricky the cat is forever in my heart ❤

Excellent breakfast, perfect for starting the day right! I recommend it!

The food was incredibly delicious, and the menu offered a huge selection at reasonable prices. The staff was always very welcoming. The music created a pleasant atmosphere for a leisurely breakfast. We spent every morning there during our trip to Amsterdam. We'd love to come back!

Best breakfast spot in Amsterdam! Wide selection of dishes and everything is delicious. The ABC sandwich is to die for. And the English breakfast is divine and very complete. The portions are generous. Henk, Léanne, and the whole team are really great, very friendly!

From the outside, the place might have looked a bit sketchy, but once inside, you immediately realize that is completely unjustified. The service was super friendly and welcoming. There is a huge selection, so there really is something for everyone. Moreover, our food was incredibly delicious. The value for money is absolutely top-notch. Definitely recommended!

Really enjoyed our experience. Their cafe cat is cute. The food was excellent. Coffee was exceptional. Will visit again.

Excellent food, coffee and most of all thank you to the wonderful service provided by Michella. She has great taste in music too, excellent playlist from 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s.

A great place for breakfast. Very friendly staff, delicious food, and excellent value for money.

A fantastic place! We enjoyed brunch while talking with the owner, his wife, and other friendly customers about our travels and Kings day.

We just happened to stop by this spot because it was on our way from the hotel. What a treat it turned out to be. Affordable great food! Lovely people. And a cat!!🐈‍⬛❤️

A very cozy atmosphere. Coffee is excellent and the bites are very tasty tasty, highly recommended!

Welcome people, with big portions I really loved this place ❤️ 💖 ♥️

Very little vegan options , lots of other food , god a avocado and almond milkshake what was a 10/10

The food and service are magnificent.

The staff was friendly and the place has nice vibes, they even offered tap water when you sit down, but it lacks cleanness. The floors were sticky, the window side chairs and surfaces were sticky and as soon as you enter you get some weird smell all around as it needs some more ventilation. Coffees were okay tho, lots of options to choose from!

Amazing food, wonderful coffee and great service! I definitely recommend it 🥹

This place was next to our hotel and we decided to try it on our last morning in Amsterdam. We were so impressed! Staff are lovely and menu was lovely too. I am celiac and had the ABC sandwich with gluten free bread. It was delicious and some of the best gluten free bread I’ve ever had. Highly recommend ☺️

Lovely toasties, really nice Irish coffee. Very reasonably priced

We had a wonderful breakfast with our family. They're also very accommodating to small children. Extensive menu and a pleasant atmosphere. Friendly owners.

Excellent breakfast options. A wide selection, well prepared. Fast service.

Me and my girlfriend were just in Amsterdam and stayed in de Jonker hotel and is literally next door. Amazing service, great food, well priced, we came here every morning for breakfast. Amazing atmosphere and very cozy. Really fast service. Couldn’t recommend this place more.

Had a really enjoyable breakfast here @ 3pm. I forgot to stop to take photos I think that tells you good it was !!!

coffee is okay, keep in mind you are not allowed to use the laptop

The food, service and atmosphere was so good we came back all 3 mornings of our stay. Breakfast good value for money, recommend if you're staying at the hotel next door!

We somehow only came here for the first time yesterday but it was great! The food was delicious and everyone who worked there was super kind. I didn't have it but I overheard someone say their gluten free bread was the best they've ever had so I'll definitely be coming back for that! Regardless the breakfast platters can be ordered piecemeal so you can definitely make anything work. Would highly recommend!

Truly delicious place, excellent food, and prompt, attentive service. Friendly staff. We had pancakes, Michael's sandwich, and a mocha chino and a hot cocoa. Everything was delightful!

10/10 We had our last meal before we flew back to Leeds, what a treat to have had a gorgeous breakfast at this little gem. The place had a festive ambiance, service was great and friendly. The food portions were really generous, fresh and delicious. Definately a place to visit for a memorable meal.

Cafe for tourists that visit Artis The room is smelly, especially at the back. The menu card is sticky. The food itself is average (maybe slightly below tho)

A wonderful time with a great welcome for us and our daughter. Plus, it was very good!

What a wonderful experience! Extremely friendly. Very tasty food. Order the ham and cheese croissant. Perfect!!!!!!! We will eat it every morning during our stay.

Enjoy your breakfast and drinks. Greetings from Friesland.

Had a great breakfast here. Food was excellent and owners were so friendly. I would definitely go back next time I am in Amsterdam.

A lovely little café with very friendly staff. Unfortunately, the sandwich (€8!!!) was very similar to a classic sandwich you'd get at a motorway service station. I think everyone knows what I mean from that description. That's just unacceptable.

Cute and cozy place ! The food is also very good and the staff really Nice :) I recommend a lot

Absolutely amazing place Upon arriving, we were greeted and welcomed by the neighbourly cat. The kind owner let us feed, pet, and play with the cat before getting into business. The Spanish breakfast was a absolutely amazing!! The croissant was crisp on the outside and soft/airy on the inside A variety of coffee as well! Most importantly the friendly staffs and owner, the nice collection of songs, the cute decoration, and the Christmas vibe just made our stay unforgettable. Everything is taken with great care. 10000 recommended

Absolutely a gem! The staff are friendly, food and drink are delicious. Price is fair. Most of all love the ambience and decoration inside.

Great little cafe, definitely worth a try if you want a breakfast in Amsterdam

good cafe, delicious food and affordable prices, I recommend

A really great place. The coffee is excellent and the breakfast is simply amazing – fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service is friendly. Perfect for breakfast. Highly recommended.

Fantastic love it and thay have a cat haha

Went here this morning with friends for breakfast prior to leaving Amsterdam, such beautiful inviting staff and food awesome. Will visit again if in the area and would recommend to all.

Great service, hospitality a 10! Very good and varied food, and very clean and cozy. I've been there many times and will return regularly, thanks Léanne and Michelle!

I love a full English breakfast. I'm so satisfied with it!

Cute little brunch spot with delicious coffee and yummy breakfast. The BLT with egg was scrumptious.

I paid €4,90 for a flat white that honestly tastes like the coffee I'd get from AH for €1... The milk wasn't frothed properly, the koffie mainly had warm milk in it with some over foamed stuff sitting on top (exactly like the machines in AH), and the coffee tasted like pretty generic over-roasted beans (again like AH koffie). The place seemed nice but that's the most expensive flat white I've gotten in Amsterdam this year and at the same time the worst one...

Generous portions, lovely food and a friendly atmosphere

The service was very good, the food was delicious

Very cool atmosphere with tasty and affordable food. The cats made the experience even better 😊❤️

The food is delicious and service is great

Food is great and the stuff is great and nice. Finally normal coffee 😄, which is until now was difficult to find. So 5+

The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was very friendly! And the coffee was so good — I’ve never had such delicious coffee before. I really enjoyed eating there; the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. When I’m in Amsterdam again, I’ll definitely come back.

At 1 p.m. on a Thursday, it didn't seem to be very busy. The waitress was sitting at a table with the chef when we came in and welcomed us. After we sat down at a table, we were given a glass of tap water and our order was taken shortly afterwards. Up to that point, everything seemed quite nice, but unfortunately, several negative points arose over time. The waitress had been talking loudly with someone who appeared to be an acquaintance and was playing videos on her smartphone at an extremely high volume. After serving our drinks, she sat back down at a table and tapped away on her phone until another acquaintance came in with a child and she started talking to them. The cook then served our food: a carelessly assembled hot dog and a sandwich. The presentation of the food was awful. Although it tasted quite nice, at that point the visit was completely ruined for me, and I paid around 25 euros for the whole visit, which I could have saved myself. I do not recommend this place.

Delicious food, good for a quick breakfast, but not for staying long. The staff is friendly. It's a bit cluttered inside, which doesn't make it inviting, but the food is delicious.

Love Coffee and Bites. Very friendly and welcoming with an inviting atmosphere. Great comfort food at a really good price. Thankful to have found this on our travels. Will definitely return to Coffee and Bites when I’m in Amsterdam again. Will recommend to all family and friends who travel to Amsterdam.

Best cofee had in Netherlands!!!

Great food and espresso! Highly recommend the omlette with toast. The owner also allows you to remove ingredients to make it vegetarian

Thank you to the staff; very memorable, and appreciative!

Really good breakfast BLT, and very friendly quick service. We went there most days we were in Amsterdam.

I could recommend smash burger 👍 good price! Fast service 🙏🏻

Great food and good service, they’re so nice

A quiet and cozy place with friendly service. Ideal for a relaxed start to the day.

This is an absolute little gem of a cafe, the food is amazing with large portions and the staff are very friendly

While searching for a good brunch spot, I came across this place with a 4.6-star rating and had high expectations. Unfortunately, the experience didn’t quite match the reviews. When we arrived, the staff were noticeably cold and unwelcoming. There was no guidance—we had to find our own table—and it took quite a while before anyone came to take our order. That said, the coffee menu was impressive, with a variety of options to choose from. For breakfast, they offer several styles like English and American, or you can customize your plate by ordering items like eggs, mushrooms, etc., individually. I opted for the English breakfast, but it was missing the avocado and spinach. When I asked, I was told they had run out—something that should have been mentioned upfront. The final bill for two basic breakfasts came out to nearly €60, which felt highly overrated for the quality and service we received. Overall, a disappointing experience that didn’t justify the price or the high rating.

15 minutes waiting to order, then waited a further 45 minutes for a bacon sandwich and cheese toastie. Didn’t even get our food, terrible service, absolutely awful place!!!!!! Don’t recommend for anyone going there!!!!!!!! Would give minus stars if I could!!!

The food was really good I recommend the abc sandwich. The service was also really nice and the coffee was one of the best coffees I had here in Amsterdam. 👍

Very poor hygiene. Everything you touch is grease

More than 20 minutes later, they didn't take our order. We left.

Very nice staff with amazing breakfast and coffee. You can individualize your food with all the items you want, which is super cool!

Definitely not what I expected when I read the stellar reviews that this place has. I'll start with the good parts: the food is decent, and it's pretty close to the Artis complex, Holocaust museum, etc. The staff is (mostly) friendly and polite, despite us being completely ignored and being forced to go to the counter to order (after a 20 minute wait). But that's pretty much where the good parts end. The place is pretty small and cramped, and definitely not clean (lots of flies and tables were pretty sticky, nobody cleaned them during the whole time we were there). Another weird thing is that tables are made from old yarn swifts, which would normally be an interesting thing, if not for the fact that some of them still have the "wheel" in working condition. When we sat down, my partner accidentally stepped on the mechanism and the wheel spun, hitting my left knee. Not a good start. As I said before, we waited for 20 minutes to place our order but nobody came; not being local I thought I had to get up to order so I did, but then I noticed that other people were placing their orders at the table so no, we were just being ignored. The menu has a lot, and I mean a lot of choices. The tricky part is actually getting the food, since it took us one hour from sitting down to actually leaving. The place was busy but not that busy; if you're in a hurry I definitely cannot recommend this. The wait for the food was extremely long, almost as if we were having dinner; not suited for a quick breakfast. And we didn't even have dishes that needed to be prepared "on the spot", like pancakes or stuff like that. It was just a croissant (just needs to be heated) and a muffin (you just need to bring it to me... doesn't even need heating!). The most complicated dish was a hot dog and that's saying something. The coffee was good but the spoon I got with it was extremely dirty; I'm not talking about lime residue, I'm talking dirty and sticky. I honestly cannot recommend this place in general for reasons I already discussed; this is especially true if you're a tourist that wants to see as much as possible in Amsterdam; we thought we were gonna grab a quick breakfast before heading to visit museums or the beautiful city, but we got stuck for an hour of just... waiting. Disappointing, because this place could be much more with some more effort.

the dutch breakfast & iced espresso banana w/ coconut milk are supreme. and the music - great ambiance.

Place has a very large menu with plenty of options. From breakfast to sandwiches, etc. Friendly staff and easy atmosphere. The barista even tracked me down a block away after I left my sunglasses

Really good breakfast! Very friendly staff!

Ordered a sausage on toast they give me 2 cock tail sausages on a hot dog roll with lettuce 😂😂😂 no butter or nothing just lettuce and cocktail sausages on a hot dog bun please do not give these guys a penny biggest waste of €14 I have ever spent when I asked why there was lettuce on my cocktails peice of bread or what ever you want to call it they said just take it off I took it off and there wasn’t even any butter on the roll I couldn’t recommend this to a dog never mind a person

In the Plantage neighbourhood where we were staying around the corner from the entrance to the Artis Zoo. Visited Coffee & Bites three times while visiting Amsterdam in May with my brother and two sisters … all of us from Canada. Each visit reconfirmed our impression that this restaurant was a great place to stop in for coffee and breakfast … the food and coffee were very good and well priced … loved the welcoming, casual atmosphere … and appreciated the excellent service and the warm hospitality of the owner/operators who seemed interested to chat with us and ask about our travels. Each visit we were welcomed with smiles and cheerful greetings. We were beginning to feel like we were at home, which is a nice feeling when you are ‘on the road’! Although we didn’t have lunch or dinner there, I would think the food and service would be equally good at those times too. Would highly recommend Coffee & Bites… especially for breakfast. Will definitely go back when I return to Amsterdam which will hopefully be soon. A lucky find for us!

Delicious dutch pancake bites! Really fast service too

Didn’t like the iced coffee at all. I don’t think that’s how iced coffee should look.

If you like places with warmth service and peaceful energy, you can’t miss this place. Once I got in I notice this lovely family context that will make your breakfast special!

Cosy, for the Dutch and the tourist with an Amsterdam atmosphere.

Lovely staff and good food, we had english breakfast

A cute little café with a fun decor. We had a great breakfast, the healthy sandwich was delicious, and the gentleman who served us was super friendly! We'd love to come back!

Had a nice breakfast at Coffee & Bites: good spot outside in the sun, great service and good bang for your buck. We were helped quickly, got some water served immediately and food was there in 5-10 mins. Definitely recommend!

Henk and Leanne are very dear friends who have built a beautiful and good business. They serve coffee in many shapes and sizes, sandwiches in delicious variations and much more. Quality is of paramount importance

Terrific little place to get coffee and breakfast. The owner/family ae extremely friendly and really added to our experience as tourists. We even talked a little bit about American Football and Kings Day events. Highly recommend.

Delicious food. Good atmosphere, nice service. Highly recommended.

Lovely little place for breakfast and coffee. The gentleman working was very nice and made a lovely macchiato. The food was also very good with lots of options.

Has soy milk…and rents bicycles.

Cute coffee shop with great tasting coffee. Nice neighborhood and owner roasts his own beans. Great way to start the day!!

Best breakfast in Amsterdam for sure

The coffee and the apple pie are delicious!!

Very beautiful Café with a young dynamic team. The pancakes are amazing, and the coffees also. We are highly recommended it.

The ABC Sandwich is very delicious.
