De Pizzabakkers Zaandam in Wijk 21 Oude Haven

Good atmosphere, excellent service.

Very low quality pizza, especially for such a high price... We went to eat somewhere else afterwards given the pizza was so thin and with so little ingredients on it

My fav pizza place in Holland so far! Loved it so much we went three nights in a row. The wine is delicious, the food is tasteful and the service is great!!

I really enjoyed and felt happy while eating there. All employees are really kind and smiling all the time. Kitchen looks well cleaned and their employees also hygenic. If i visit Zaandam again, i will defenitely eat in here again.

Delicious food, pizza prices are a bit on the high side but pizzas are very tasty

Nice little place, very good pizza, the better italian style!

Delicious pizza. Kids had a great time with their ball of pizza dough and it was nice that it went into the oven before them. We had to wait too long for our drink once. I would have liked my red wine with my pizza, but the pizza was already 2/3 gone. For the rest fine

We hebben vanavond met vriendinnen bij jullie gegeten. Helaas niet wat we ervan verwacht hadden. De pizza’s waren koud. 3 konden terug de oven in. Twee waren daarna goed de derde kwam verbrand terug. En de andere moesten het met een koude pizza doen.

I find it really bizarre that I live 190 meters from the restaurant and just get cold pizzas worth €40 delivered. In addition, the extra toppings were not on the pizza but next to it? Truffle sauce was as liquid as water and had no truffle flavor at all. Delivery guy via Uber was there within 2 minutes so it wasn't his fault. 3 years ago it was much better. No idea what happened there.

Nice restaurant in a cozy old building on De Dam in Zaandam, with pizzas that are not so average and tasty (my favorite is the pfunghi & pancetta). Nice people too, nice terrace. Not in the sun in the evening, but more atmospheric.

I went here last night with my husband. The pizzas, the bruschetta and the calzone were delicious! Buonissime! Until next time. Silvia and Marco.

Excellent pizzas are baked in a beautiful building on Dam Square. My pizza had a good taste, was crispy and had something fresh about it, which was a good combination. You can also expect something surprising here. Focacia starter was also excellent with good sauces. Chocolate mousse for dessert completed the evening. The food here is just fine. The service makes it complete. You will receive a warm welcome. And nice to take a look in the kitchen. Years ago I once made a Zaans Story about the pizza makers. They then gave children from families living in poverty a free pizza. So they also have a heart for their fellow man, which is great! When the weather is nice you can eat outside on the terrace.

We’ve had series of unfortunate events during our visit. Not worth going back. There are other pizza places in Zaandam that deserves attention. 1. We were offered a seat next to the kitchen as we had no reservation. It was all fine until when we’re about to order, they asked us to transfer to the bar because it was apparently the table was reserved. It’s forgivable until.. 2. Pizza came - the red pizza was good but the tartufo was dry and tasted nothing like tartufo. We were hungry so we ate it anyway with extra spicy olive oil. 3. Ordered Tiramisu. It was dry. Period. 4. Ordered affogato. The waitress asked if I want amaretto with it. It was unusual but am willing to try so went for it. When served, it didn’t taste like it had the liquer so I asked if they put the liquer in - they said they did so fine. Then all of a sudden another waitress just pulled my espresso cup and poured the liquer in it. The espresso became diluted with the liquer as we already finished half of it so it tasted purely like alcohol - no apologies and the waitress was combative. Not worth the additional cost. It would’ve been great if there was an apology. I understand the restaurant is busy and I’m usually very patient to restaurant staff. This time, it’s not really acceptable especially for the price we had to pay. At least have the decency to apologize. That’s all.

Ordered 2 pizza margherita and 1 tira misu for 43 (!!!!!!!!!) euros. Crappy dry pizzas that arrived almost cold. Barely dry tasteless tira misu. Never again!!

Delicious pizza with a thin crispy base.

Such a shame when we come in on a Sunday evening at 9:00 PM to eat two pizzas, we are told that the dough has run out. Quite strange when you're open until 10pm! Vincent and Joke were not there themselves... Because during their presence we have never heard at 9 pm that the dough was gone.....

Delicious food, attentive service.

Probably the worst pizza ever. Paid 41 euros including delivery for ice cold Pizza. Paid extra for a whole buratta and you only get half. On top of that, a lovely long hair on the pizza. Contacted, according to the pizza makers it is all up to Uber. Never again!

Finally a good pizzeria again. Special pizzas that taste good. Also just don't make a fuss about half/half pizza, which is often the case with others. It was Wednesday, so I don't know what that's like on a busy day. The dessert was a bit disappointing for me. The coffee was good. Service also friendly. The place looks clean, unfortunately the table had not been cleaned completely, but the cutlery and glasses were clean.

Excellent pizza in a cozy restaurant. The pizza oven is clearly visible and the chefs throw up the dough for the pizza bases within sight of the restaurant. Nice to have such a glimpse into the kitchen. The taste of the pizzas was fine and the base was paper thin. The service was also what you would expect.

Love love love. Crispy base. Fresh. Not napoli style but rather light and crispy. I got the funghi with added anchovy

De Pizzabakkers Zaandam is our favorite pizzeria in Zaandam. My husband and I go there often because, so far, it’s the best pizza we’ve found in town. I have a few favorites on the menu, like the Tartufo pizza, but if you visit, I really recommend trying their pizza of the month. Each month, they come up with a different pizza featuring unique ingredients. For instance, in October, I had one topped with chicory. The pizzas always have a thin, crispy crust, and they’re absolutely delicious. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Great pizzas! Not your usual ingredients, which made it quite interesting. Didn’t fancy a choice of the three pizzas of the month But the food we did order was fabulous. Service was a little slow, but friendly enough. All in all a very pleasant experience.

Super! Ambiance très sympa à l'intérieur, plus que l'extérieur ne le laissait présager. Service rapide, pizzas faites devant vous. Cela sent la bonne entreprise familiale. Et les pizzas sont justes excellentes! Nous avons testé une à la truffe et l'autre aux champignons des bois et nous nous sommes régalés.

Delicious pizza of the month and excellent vegetarian pizza. Mighty tiramisu. A visit to this pizzeria is certainly a wonderful evening

The staff insults guests! Dear pizzeria employees, if a guest does not speak Dutch, this does not mean that he does not understand Dutch and you have the right to insult us (unfortunately, Google don’t give permission, tell directly what was saying) behind our backs when other guests understand you! This is humiliating!!!!!! Situation: I was in this pizzeria with my daughter. We asked about the availability of a table and were offered one, but were told that there was a reservation for it at 18:00. We had 1 hour and 20 minutes to eat our pizza. We made it in 45 minutes, paid and left. On the way, my daughter told me that the people working there were very bad and she didn’t want to come there anymore. To my question "why?" she replied that the staff called us with the bad words. We were very polite, smiling and left a tip. All bill was around 70 euro. When the waiter made a mistake and brought us one plate for two (we asked from beginning two plates to share a pizza and salad because we not eat too much, but we want to try menu), we told her not to worry and that we could handle it without bothering her. What have we done to deserve this attitude towards ourselves???? My only regret is that my daughter didn't tell me about it when we were there. In this case, I would directly contact these persons, administration and the owner of this pizzeria.

The pizza base is thin and tough, even with a serrated knife it was almost impossible to get through. The woman at the table next to us had the same challenge. Considering previous reviews, this seems to me to be a point of attention, to say the least.

Delicious food at the bar, beautiful tent and an open kitchen, which really creates a familiar, cozy atmosphere. Nice service that is also very cheerful.

I always loved this place. One i always bring my guests but i noticed the reduction in quality of starters at least and young inexperienced waitresses…. Still hope it gets back to how it was- amazing warm and great food spot in Zaandam .

Very enjoyable pizza place, best enjoyed in the restaurant

€40 for two pizzas is already expensive, but we expect more than paper with a little tomato sauce. We are completely disappointed.

İncecik hamur ve sımsıcak servis edildi. Çok nazikler. Acı zeytinyağ ve peroni bira seçenekleri çok iyiydi. Tekrar gelirim

What a joke,they call this Italian pizza,it’s made with cheap ingredients and the so called mozzarella tastes like rubber/obviously this franchise establishment chooses for low quality products just to keep up with the demand too bad cause a few years ago was decent and enjoyable/ such a shame!

I'm truly disappointed to say that the pizza I had here was one of the worst I've ever tasted. The "Pizza of the Month" was an absolute letdown. Its paper-thin crust offered little substance, and the meager toppings lacked any discernible flavor balance. While the ambiance and service were pleasant, they couldn't salvage the truly disappointing culinary experience.

The restaurant has earned a rating of 4 stars and leaves a very positive impression overall. Although it looks inconspicuous from the outside, the interior is tastefully and harmoniously designed. The service was extremely friendly and tried to answer all questions in detail despite a slight language barrier. The menu offered a solid selection, especially pizzas, as you would expect from a pizzeria. There were about eight different types as well as some antipasti. A small point of criticism is the selection of drinks, which only included products from St. Pellegrino - unfortunately one searched for cola in vain, which is why one star was deducted. The pizzas themselves were excellent. The dough was thin, but not too thin, with a nice crispy edge. The tomato sauce was intensely tomatoey and had a pleasantly fine consistency. The cheese content was a bit sparse, but that only emphasized the fresh taste of the tomatoes. Of particular note are the salami pizza with fennel, which offered a unique taste, and the pizza with ham, truffle oil and egg. The traditional pizza oven certainly added to the authentic taste. Overall, a highly recommended restaurant for lovers of good pizza and an appealing atmosphere.

Best best best. Had caprese, caponata, Fungu & Pancetta and Tartufo. All were great. The Affogato is THE BEST .

Super friendly lady. She does everything by heart. Smart lady

I order a pizza which was really delicious. I had paid 2.5 euros for pesto. My pizza arrives and throughout the meal I think "am I blind or haven't I got pesto on" I ask a waiter and he points to the green and says it's pesto. Afterwards, I pass a table where a pizza clearly has pesto on it, and I can also see it in the pictures here. I had eaten my pizza when I saw this so didn't feel like I could do more about it. Our drinks had very few ice cubes in them and were room temperature. We had to ask for more ourselves.

Het leek een gezellig en betaalbaar restaurant en dat klopte ook wel, maar de bediening had wel een voorgerecht doorgegeven aan de keuken, maar heeft hoofdgerecht niet. We hebben vervolgens (toen hij het door had) nog een half uur mogen wachten. Eerst mochten we een glas kraanwater bij ons eten, maar toen de eigenaresse erbij kwam, mochten we alleen maar flesjes water bestellen. De pizzas waren minimaal belegd en dat maakte de betaalbare prijs alsnog vrij duur. Mede gasten klaagden ook over de lange wachttijden. Voor mij niet meer dit.

I often come here for a pizza. I'm usually surprised by the pizza of the month. It hasn't disappointed me yet. Pizza base is nice and thin and crispy. Staff nice and quick.

Had to wait 1.5 hours for two burnt pizzas. No one looks around and takes orders. For 1.5 hours no one asked if we wanted something to drink. Once the pizzas were delivered we had to ask for cutlery, tissues and extra plates for the 2 Kids. In the end we didn't need it anymore, because we ate our pizzas so quickly that we wanted to get out of there asap. Service drama, waiting time drama, never experienced this before. Is it selective or they just can't handle it. Didn't understand anything. But NEVER eat there again. Don't recommend it to anyone. Waste of your money.

Rude rude servers! Was charged for complaining about my pizza, cheap portions and talking back to clients with attitude. Pizza was soggy and cold!

Tasty pizza and a fun atmosphere in Zaandam

We were 5 hungry people with no reservations. We were turned away (because of no reservations) at the top rated pizza place in town. We walked around and looked at restaurants and decided to stop here. We were trying to decide if we needed to wait for a table or just sit down... a customer who doesn't even work there took us inside and found us a table! The focaccia with the sauces was soooo good! We all ordered a different pizza and shared with each other. All of the pizzas were delicious!! The service was pleasant and the atmosphere was good! We definitely recommend!

Went last night. A heartbreak at the prices. Glass of rose €6.50, glass of bitter lemon €3.75. Pizza €16. Sit at a high table on stools and leave within 35 minutes. We will look for another place from now on

Excellent atmosphere, good food and everything very organized and clean!

The thin crust pizza absolutely delicious. It definitely quenched my hunger. The beer quenched my thirst and the limoncello drink just needed a little tad more sugar but I'm not sure if that's how people like it. It was great though. The atmosphere definitely is nice. You get a nice quiet table right inside or outside and the square of zaandem.

An aperitivo with spritz and, they say two bruschetta, but it was clearly a big bruschetta divided in 6 small pieces. The spritz was clearly made by someone who never drank or made a spritz before. Olives warm out of the ove, and bruschetta cold out of the fridge. The pizza was an insult to the real pizza makers. The margherita was a treasure hunt for mozzarella, and the half burrata, was just a slice of a burrata, definitely not half. Not recommended. Will never try this again.

Very disappointed ! Waitress not nice to us anyway! Very average pizza (not very garnished) and long service!

I took a simple margherita pizza, the pizza is not like the one you can see in some published photos with large frames but it is low. This doesn't mean it's bad, on the contrary, the tomato has a flavor and the mixture is delicious. I would have used a little more mozzarella! For a local pizzeria the price is not high, the atmosphere is nice and the staff are friendly

1 hour waiting time for pizza is unbelievable.

Because the Facebook advertisements made me curious, I walked in here. The food is fine. I chose the pizza Caponata, with sauce with eggplant and celery. The pizza was nice and thin and crispy and the ingredients were recognizable. I would have liked a little more. With a delicious large plate of salad of arugula and fennel. The Tiramusu was a large portion, nothing special.

Average pizza that takes an hour to prepare. Wanted a coffee afterwards but "there was no time for that"

Super tasty pizza, sometimes some creative pizzas, very, very nice service. Definitely recommended 👍🏻

Zeer slecht Pizza's waren koud randen verbrand en zeer karig belegd Belachelijk duur voor wat je krijgt Hadden extra toppings toegevoegd maar deze zaten der niet op Had er wel voor betaald

Ordered 3 pizzas and tiramisu Pizzas were cold and very sparingly topped. Ridiculously expensive for what you get Pizzas used to be much better

Very nice restaurant. Everyone is very nice and helpful. Pizza is very thin like an Italian restaurant :) Salad was super fresh and delicious 😋 Tiramisu is homemade and excellent! Price/performance is definitely right here. We can wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant ❤️keep it up😊

No fresh garlic in the kitchen? Taste is technically bland Sparsely invested My son called this the worst Margherita ever (no taste at all) and rightly so and he is a connoisseur Some frozen pizzas are better and I'm not kidding. We normally always eat at an original Italian... and we won't make this trip anymore Furthermore, the neighbors received the starter after the pizzas (ticket system not in order?)

Sam was a great server, other staff super friendly too. Delicious pizzas. Great tent!

Delicious funghi & Salami pizza. Great service and nice atmosphere.

Nice service friendly stuff but the vegan food was not worth it . Too expensive and the vegan food was bad and tasteless.id you are vegan I would suggest to skip

Nice tent with friendly staff. Also let me taste ingredients that were on the pizza of the month because I wasn't sure if I liked it. Definitely a recommendation if you fancy a pizza.

Amazing pizzas, lovely service & nice atmosphere

Friendly staff and nice sphere.. the pizza was bit charred and we enjoyed it.

My favorite pizzeria in Zaandam 👍 Always fun, good service and great pizzas! 🍕 Pick up or delivery is also great.

Brilliant location hotel lovely

Came here randomly after staying in Zaandam and needed a bite to eat on our first night. Was so cosy in here and the pizzas were to die for! Great music playlist too 🫶🏻 would definitely come back 10/10

We traveled all over Italy... The best pizza is in Zaandam

Amazing pizza, cocktails and dessert. The staff were really kind attentive especially our waitress who explained it was her first day on the job! Very reasonably priced too. Will definitely visit again if we are ever in the area.

Very good food. The starters was perfect and the pizzas even better. Really recommended. The waiter was also very nice. Thank you !

Our two pizzas were cold. This was indicated and he wanted to put them back in the oven first, even though the toppings would become bad, he said, because making new ones took too long. Okay then. Got new ones anyway and they were fine. But afterwards, using photos of my old and new pizza, I saw that they didn't put a tomato on it the second time. Unfortunately I didn't notice this, because the second pizza had a whole pile of arugula. In retrospect, it indeed had no tomato. Disappointing....

Ate before when it was good, this time very bad! Cold pizza, there were four of us. Two of them received the pizzas much later. I think the worst thing is; staff is treated so poorly. There are young girls walking around and they don't get yelled at. This is very unfortunate! I'm not coming back!

Very friendly welcome. Good pizza (15€) on the terrace.

Delicious only small drawback is that the dough is perhaps a little thin but it's all really excellent for a rather low price

Possibly the best pizzas in Zaandam!

Excellent pizzas, pretty reasonably priced. Authentic Italian menu: nice red wines including Sangiovese and Primitivo, great starters (the beef carpaccio, rocket, Parmesan and lemon dressing was fabulous), and very appealing dolci.

Fabulous pizza! Perfect crust. Real Italian style

Always delicious pizzas, but less so the last few times. Now it was really bad. Cold pizza, no burrata (ordered) you pay 0.05 cents for plastic but get a cardboard container with panna cotta? I always thought it was neat in the past but it was worth my money, but not anymore unfortunately. I had to call home delivery to have 3 euros refunded?:(

Starter was very tasty - but was a bit of a trap because it wasn't ordered but was billed at the end. Pizza wasn't really our taste. The service can be improved - but this does not apply to all, but only to some.

Delicious food, but for staff it can be said that it is work and not a playground.

Delicious food and very friendly staff. We only had a lot of screaming children on the terrace. And then you don't feel calm. It's a shame that people can't control their children.

My wife and I wanted to have a quick meal. We ordered a margherita pizza and a peroni beer, and they were kind enough to give us plates to share. The atmosphere was comfortable and the prices were reasonable.

Best pizza I've had in amsterdam.

The service and care were inadequate. Good coffee, tasty but actually a bit (too) salty pizzas, and chocolate calzone. Really Italian oriented, no coke for example. We were asked too often if we wanted something to drink. There is also the most margin, you could feel that. But then: The waiter forgot my cappuccino. My knife was dirty, my dinner companion's fork was even dirtier. Returned. The area was also not clean, neither were the toilets nor the route to them. The servers and scooter deliverers kept walking around behind me and bumping into my seat. "Sorry" and then again. The -apparent- owner was sitting behind us talking to people she knew and 'wasn't very precise', she said. Well, it showed. At one point a man next to us said to the waiter, "those people had been waiting for a long time." It was noticeably bad. Next time to Haarlem or something, maybe it will be better there. It was a nice place in itself, but the disturbingly poorly organized place didn't make it any more fun.

I don't usually like pizza, but the pizza here is amazing! We also ordered a salad, which received compliments from my meat loving partner. I would definitely come back again if I were not just visiting.

Zoals ik vaak in Holland ervaar zijn de meeste restaurants calvinistisch ('een mens mag niet genieten') van aard. Je moet écht goed zoeken naar een goed restaurant waar het eten niet gortdroog is. Dit in tegenstelling tot de zuidelijk Europese landen. Het voorgerecht 'Bruschetta' was vier gortdroge sneetjes geroosterd brood, waarvan twee met stukjes tomaat en Italiaanse tuinkruiden en de andere twee met een soort pesto. De pizza's waren de 'Romeinse versies', droog en dun, dus snel koud. Wel een goede smaak. Die van mij was duidelijk te lang gebakken, maar een flinke scheut olijfolie deed wonderen. Maar toch. Naast ons zat een super-aardige pizza-etende Spaanse toerist die ik vroeg: "Do you like your pizza?". Hij antwoordde direct: "Do you want some?". Ik zei wat vertwijfeld: "Well, a tiny bit". Hij brak een compleet achtste deel af. Ik: "oh no, that's much!", maar hij drong aan en wat schertste mijn verbazing (hij had de 'Pizza van de Dag'. Die van hem was wat dikker, minder doorbakken, rijkelijk gevuld en... NIET droog!

Pizzas are quite pricey, ordered extra nduja but it was still very little. Otherwise tasty.

The restaurant is very cozy. The waitresses are so nice. The pizza was little bit overcooked but even though it was delicious. The toilet was super clean and they had hygienic products in. I would definitely recommend it :)

Delicious pizza... spicy oil is not spicy at all... Outside tables need updating...

Best pizza, quality ingredients, great service

Delicious food and excellent service Too bad the lemon ice cream ran out....

Eerste keer pizza gehaald. In andere beoordelingen stond dat de pizza’s lekker zijn en rijkelijk belegd. Daar gingen we dan ook vanuit. Helaas niet het geval. Misschien dat de tonijn op was maar het leek meer een pizza margarita met een paar snippertjes tonijn en 4 olijven. Ook de andere pizza viel ontzettend tegen een dunne bodem klopt wel maar daar is alles wel een beetje mee gezegd helaas.

In a previous review we gave this place 1 star because we left without food after waiting an hour. However, we received an apology with an offer and were still able to eat here. Great place for an informal dinner with pizza (no pasta!).

Excellent waiter. He speaks several languages ​​and is very friendly

Delicious 🍕 with a very thin base. The tastiest pizza in Zaandam

The most delicious pizza in Zaandam and the surrounding area. Prosecco is divine!

Smooth, very friendly service, delicious food.

A good address, excellent pizza from the dough to the toppings. The pleasant waitress, the friendly setting like the customer seated next to us. I advise.

Very nice place with delicious pizza. Ingredients very good quality, lots of flavours, home made pesto! Very much recomended!

Ordered via home delivery. First of all, we had to wait a long time for the tiramisu. We had 2 family containers of 450gr. So 900 gr is what we thought we were getting. For 5 people. We thought that should be enough. And what do we get, just a little more than a bowl. After calling the business, we are referred back to home delivery. Who makes the dishes then?! Thuisbezorgd only collects and delivers the order. But this was the last time, more than 30 euros were paid. So scandalous. Well we have had a response from you and it would be resolved...... We are still waiting for a decent answer and solution. This is so bad.
