De Drie Graefjes American Bakery - Vestiging Dam in Burgwallen-Nieuwe Zijde

I know there are many branches out there. But this one is a Gem out of others. Friendly young employees with kind and friendly service. The carrot cake was out the world, cappuccino and flat white both tasted perfect. A great experience as a tourist in Amsterdam 🎉

Food is fine. Always a nice place to return to. Staff is very friendly.

Strange that if you order a salmon salad, you are charged extra for the salmon. And while we had asked in advance what that extra amount on the menu meant... the explanation was, if you ordered extra salmon, grilled vegetables, etc., an extra amount was added. The salmon that belonged to the salmon salad was not ordered extra... Special experience here...

Overall not bad but not good either. We had two dishes with chicken but there was no chicken it was literally turkey cold cut that’s been ripped up. Expected more and not going back but it was fine I guess. It was definitely too expensive for what it was.

Not really my cup of tea… I don’t go crazy for cakes unless they’re really good. I had the red velvet cupcake and I think it was overly sweet for me. Prices are obviously quite high given the very central location close to Dam square. Staff was okay, bonus point for the cosy vibe upstairs. I’d not recommend coming here unless you’re a tourist and wanna do tourist stuff, there surely are much more local and characteristic places you can go to other than an American bakery

We had a nice brunch. Food is delicious and has good portions with sides. The cake is huge! Very cosy atmosphere.

The best red velvet I've ever had. The staff is super friendly. Lovers of American pastries and more will love it.

It is a super nice place, not crowded and super frienldy service. We had a clubsandwich and a cupcacke and everything was so tasty! I would highly recommend a visit!

We had a number of cakes there last week. None was good for us. Texture was hard and the taste was not to our liking. Cream was either too sweet or too salty with sweetness. Our first visit in 2024 was good. That's why we went back again. But was really disappointed last week.

Very nice staff and fresh food :)

We were looking for a "normal" place to have lunch. Received with a smile upon arrival and friendly service at the table. Very fast service just after lunch time (1:30 PM). I'm a big eater, so I found the portion a bit small. My friend didn't agree, hence the 4 stars for the food. Toilet a bit dirty but not disturbing.

Small tasty and nice place workers are cute and smiley enjoy ur time pretty pleasure

Cozy tent to sit in. A bit cold. Lots of pie and cake options. The lady serving does her job, but doesn't smile.

We had two burgers, one with meat and the other spicy chicken. Fantastically tasty and fast. Very friendly service, also speaking Dutch. I'm not surprised that the restaurant was full. Cupcakes also highly recommended!

Nicest cake places in all Amsterdam. Tried many times and each time a delight. Goto place for birthday cakes.

Very cosy, close to Dam square, and the tase of the cake is amazing

I asked the internet which one was the best place to have a good breakfast in Amsterdam and this one popped up. Well.. what can I say. It was fine, but nothing spectacular guys , I had an avo toast with scrambled eggs and bacon and just the last two components cost me 7-8€ for 2 scrambled eggs and 4 slices of bacon. The avo toast itself was a bit poor if I took it by itself. Expensive in the end as a breakfast but good, nothing amazing. The cappuccino was good :) Cappuccino-orange juice and the rest for 24€. Remember: I’m talking about what I had.

Unfriendly staff I went the first time thought it was just a one time thing went back again two different people working in. Just as rude. We eat pastries for fun not for bad vibes

Very high-quality cakes, delicious coffee. The main thing is in the very center of the city. Good service. Affordable prices. Coffee + cake - plus or minus 10 euros.

Good prices, simple seating, very nice treatment and the girl working there provided excellent service.

De Drie Graefjes is the ideal place to treat yourself to a delicious cake. It's an experience you don't want to miss!

The lady who worked there couldn't help but smile. It would make the atmosphere so cozy if the lady behind the bar would communicate a little more friendly. A reason for me and my girlfriend to choose a different tent if she works there.

I often come here for lunch and the service is always great. Besides the fact that it tastes good, the hygiene is also good.

Lovely stop for cake and coffee. I was walking back to my hotel and desired something sweet. While I had hoped for an apple pie they did have a tasty banana and walnut cake with cream cheese whip. The cake was amazing. Moist and perfectly balanced. Hot chocolate going with it was also great. Service was ok however they were very quick to tell me that they were closing in 15min. They were already in the packing up process. Overall a good experience and I would visit again.

Totally worth the 5 stars ! I came here with my friends and the food was really amazing (as you can probably see on the picture)… I highly recommend

Remains the best place for a tasty and fresh piece or whole cake! Staff is always friendly!

very cute little cafe. Red velvet cake is amazing but truly enough for two people! we‘ll come back once we‘re in Amsterdam again.

A cute cafe in the middle of Amsterdam! Our server was super nice. The food was delicious and the prices are fair. For people who struggle with walking should not try to go upstairs.

A very nice café over two floors in a charming building. Very tasty toasts/sandwiches and red velvet cupcakes. Great selection of cupcakes and cakes. Nice and young service staff.

Delicious cakes! Unfortunately the stairs are a thing!

Ate delicious cake. The coffee (Latte Macchiato) was actually a bit too much for me. What makes this business especially attractive is the building. It's old and cozy. And the spiral staircase brings back memories of my old home. It would have been 5 stars if the toilet hadn't felt so claustrophobic. If you are a little taller or bigger you should have left the door open to pee.

Very good! I wish they could serve the dutch apple pie warm hehe

To flee! Staff not at all welcoming!

Delicious cakes and coffee, and top service. Only the seats could be a little more comfortable.

Superb coffee, the choice of cakes is very varied and the price is reasonable given the quantities. The Latte was very good.

We’ve got 2 wonderful capcakes, the red velvet one and a second one (we do not remember the name), both of them very tasty and creamy!

Nice to sit down. It's all very tight. But pastries are great and very large portions. Toasti was just not warm and then it was expensive. Stairs are very narrow and not suitable for people with mobility problems.

Always good 😍 tastiest cakes in town and delicious (hot) drinks.

A friendly request to that strange guy at De Drie Graefjes who is kindly requested not to clear the chairs and tables until around 6:00 PM, not around 5:00 PM If you are waiting upstairs for an employee of De Drie Graefjes, no one will come Employees of the Drie Graefjes, to be clear, this is not possible Please Attention For This!!!!!!!!!!!! The employees of the Drie Graefjes are kindly requested not to place Reserved signs on the tables after 5:00 PM if this table is not actually reserved at all.

We have been coming here for years, every time we are in Amsterdam. This is an absolute must for anyone who loves cake! The pieces of cake are of serious size... Everything freshly prepared every day and also delicious coffee. The sandwiches we saw passing by also looked delicious! We'll try it out next time! Highly recommended.

Super nice place! We eat very well there too 🥰 Thank you backpacker 😉

Basic food. Tostie was very simple and without spicy mayo which did say so on the menu

the place is so nice but the taste of food is not good as their look. we got scone , natta, orange cake, the natta was cold , it supposed be warm , right ?

Good coffee and delicious sandwiches with avocado and scrambled eggs.

I come here for breakfast. The place, atmosphere and staff were good and fine, but preparing the order was very slow. I wait more than 20 minutes after ordering.

Super nice café with delicious brunch dishes. The two of us had three dishes, which was almost too much, but we couldn't decide because everything sounded so delicious. The service was very friendly. We can really recommend this cafe :)

Delicious food and coffee, but it took a very long time before we were helped and received the food

A great place to stop for a drink and to enjoy some cake. Hummingbird cake was moist and a very generous slice, the black bottom cupcake was just right and a good amount of cream cheese frosting. Service was good and the location is very convenient.

Nice cafe for a little break. Great cakes and even gluten-free pastries on offer. Very nice service. Price for AMsterdam is completely ok.

Great place for a rest, coffee or tea, and dessert! Yum!!

A hospitality course is appropriate for the girls they put to work there. When you enter you are given a dry look, not greeted. Then I walk upstairs because that's where I usually sit. After a while I don't see anyone so I go downstairs to talk. I ask if I should order downstairs or they will come to the table. I am interrupted by a dark girl who says in a rude tone “upstairs is closed”. I ask her why it doesn't say that anywhere and why can I sit there? Whereupon, according to her logic, she says that I just sat upstairs, she blames it on me. I am given the choice to sit outside or inside downstairs. Because of this unfair treatment I left. The staff clearly lacks communication skills. It is a nice business with unfortunately unqualified staff.

It's a bit touristy these days. Of course, cakes remain tasty and have mega-large pieces. This remains great. Service also excellent and friendly. But… the ham/cheese sandwich is very small and €11! Outrageous price, I really feel ripped off with those 3 stray chips next to it and this sky-high price for such a small sandwich. Not normal. Buttercream on the cupcake was rock hard, so it was not pleasant to eat. The whole place also stinks of weed. Had difficulty finding a table (first inside, then outside) where the inconvenience was less. Came there for my birthday with my daughter to eat cake, but the smell of weed did not make it very relaxing.

Good address for dishes with fresh produce, the slices of cakes are huge.

The food was really bland, unfortunately nothing special. But they have a large selection of cakes, we had Red Velvet cake and it was ok.

Great place with good prices in the heart of Amsterdam, where the staff is still approachable in Dutch (🤯). Hell's Kitchen Burger is definitely recommended, one of the best burgers I've ever had.

Lovely little cafe in a quieter location. The red velvet pancakes are lovely, and the iced lattes are great! Definitely worth visiting earlier in the day.

It's perfect as a first little stop for breakfast.

Nice cafe to have a snack. Staff very friendly and attentive. Our dog was given water straight away. Price-performance very good. The cake tastes very tasty.

Cozy restaurant with great food and drinks.

Delicious lunch at De Drie Graefjes in the city center of Amsterdam. Good portion at a good price. Coffee also tastes good. Terrace outside.

Very nice place, with outdoor tables too. Perfect for a snack or a quick lunch. Excellent food, well presented, very honest prices. Friendly and attentive staff. Tasty club sandwiches and exquisite cakes (paradisiacal Lemon Merengue: not too tart cream, not too buttery base, thick, compact and soft meringue). Little curiosity: the other two businesses located on the intersection also have 3 in their names.

Delicious food, friendly and helpful staff in a beautiful and central location. However, the men's toilet does require renovation in my opinion.

When we arrived and got seated, we waited approximately 15-20min before they took our order. The waitress didn’t seem to aknowledge that we were kept waiting for a long time and she seemed to be in a bad mood… After we got our food ( which took about 20 min to arrive ), it was not as expected… the food was very bland with little to no flavour or spices :( For 14€ this was a “lack luster” experience.

We had scrambled egg with sourdough , hot chocolate , cappuccino , tea But our order took too long to come , When my order came , I was so hungry. I forget to picture it.

Most of the places I went to in the Netherlands were friendly, but this place was especially friendly. All staff were friendly, comfortable and considerate.

I recently visited De Drie Graefjes and had one of the worst experiences ever. The service was incredibly slow – easily the slowest I have ever encountered. Despite not being busy, it took an unreasonably long time for my order to be served. The staff seemed disinterested and inattentive, making the entire visit quite frustrating. I expected a relaxing experience but instead left feeling annoyed and disappointed. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for efficient and friendly service.

In ultra-touristy area off Dam Square so price in consequence but good value, good coffee (matcha latte especially beautiful ☕😊) and nice people. One apple pie portion big enough for four to share! 🥧😁

Really cute, cake is amazing and people are so nice. Thank you 🌼

A slice of apple pie is big enough to feed an army.

I bought 2 cakes to celebrate my birthday with my colleagues, I just came to buy them directly (but I guess you can order them in advance). Excellent choice, perfect consistency and wonderful taste, we all loved them, I bought apple pie/cake and red velvet cake. I'm very happy with my choice

Very expensive, like everything in Amsterdam. Slow table service

Last time the extra avocado ordered with the sandwich was missing. We came back today and this was compensated and we also received 2 cupcakes on the house! Very sweet staff, top service and always delicious. All colleagues now have lunch here 😊

lovely place with a charming ambiance and a welcoming atmosphere. The selection of sandwiches and drinks is extensive, catering to various tastes and preferences. However, the true highlight of this establishment is their cakes. They are not only delicious but also generously portioned.Best of all, the prices are incredibly low considering the massive portions and the quality of the food.

A breakfast/coffee shop in a great location You can also sit on the upper floor. The service is neither fast nor slow, they delivered it exactly when we wanted it. We can say that the prices are average and reasonable. If I come to Amsterdam again, I may stop by. We also liked the breakfast, there is no problem with the taste.

Overall great location and I like the cappuccino. You can also find seats upstairs. However, even though cakes look good, you can feel the sugar grains in your mouth which is unpleasant 🥹

Nice place for lunch, everything was very tasty and the coffee was great! Also good price. Highly recommended!

Awful. We were so disappointed. Popped here for breakfast as reviews seemed pretty ok. This was our lowest point on visiting this wonderful city. While the location is great, the cookery for breakfast, and coffee was awful.

The woman who took my order was nice, but as another review stated, it doesn’t seem like the employees want to work here. My party & I received glares & dirty looks from many of the staff. It felt like we were intruding in on something. The strawberry matcha I ordered was terrible and wasn’t prepared traditionally with a whisk. The thick, strawberry, jam-like substance sat at the bottom of the cup and took abt. 15 mins of mixing to combine. The matcha itself had little to no flavor. Would definitely not recommend if you’re looking for quality matcha or a positive environment. This is laughable as a sign advertising how phenomenal the drink was enticed me to order it.

Exceptional apple pie never eaten so good

This man who works there, probably the boss, insulted us. Every request from our side was denied. He wanted us to sit outside in the rain. We had the feeling he wanted to get rid of us. Even the employees were ashamed of this bad-tempered person. I hope you pay your girls properly. The cakes were mediocre, especially the rainbow cake (which only consisted of sugar, not recommended). We were there with our son. Since I'm an honorable person, I didn't want to argue with this Tyorn who works there in front of my son. In summary, there are better places in Amsterdam where the customer is respected and you can feel comfortable.

the lattes here are very good :)

Coffee and delicious cake(s). Sometimes it seems like there is not enough service for the number of guests, but we come for the peace and quiet and a cup of coffee! All in all highly recommended!

Very nice cafe with elemental items. Excellent spot to grab a cuppa and work. There is also a diner saloon.

Iced Vanilla Latte is top notch

Very good place for breakfast or a snack. The juices and food are quality and the service is good. Be careful of the stairs which are a little steep. Upstairs you have a view of the church

Delicious food! Lots of choice and affordable too! They also have a nice menu option, but I went for the warm goat cheese sandwich and the smoothie of the day. Enjoy!

Very impolite staff, not tasty food

Went by from Almere to eat a cake for my birthday. We sat on the terrace and the service was great! The cakes are really delicious and large. The cupcakes are pretty tasty too!

It's a great place to eat big slices of American-style pies

Best breakfast ever ( red velvet pancakes 🥞 )

Very tasty sandwiches and cakes. Nice atmosphere. Service could have been a little faster, but very friendly. You can only get to the first floor via very steep stairs.

Ze zijn heel gul in de hoeveelheid taart die ze geven. Ook is de klantenservice vriendelijk en zijn de prijzen relatief goedkoop in Amsterdam

There staff acted like they didn’t like to work there. But the cakes were AMAZING tho. I recommend to take the cakes to go.

I can't say anything about the ambience because we took the cake with us. The service was neutral. The cakes/pies in the display looked very tasty and attractive. So a piece of chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream was bought for €5.50. In return you got a handsome piece. After the first bite we realized that the size of the cake was only halfway worth the price. Because there was still a lot of "loose" sugar in the buttercream, which crunched quite a bit in the mouth. Because of this and the sweet cake layers, the cake was very sweet and the chocolate was completely lost. I can't say whether that depends on the day. But if I'm in Amsterdam again I won't visit here again.

Delicious cake, next to the church

The service is desperately too slow. The prices are quite normal . I wouldn't choose this place again.

The best cakes in the world. Nothing to add

If you fancy a pastry and something warm to drink, this is definitely the place to be.

I came here for my birthday to get a slice of cake to celebrate 🥳. I had the lemon meringue pie, which was lovely at first, however the filling was curdled and the pie crust was burnt. I'm hoping I just came on a bad day and will try again when I return in July

Large menu with lots of choice. Nice meal
