Koffiehuis 'De Hoek'. in Grachtengordel-West

Great atmosphere, interesting interior and cool vibes. The menu is not expensive and food and coffee were good. I recommend.

The good thing: It’s nice to sit by the canal. The bad: the breakfast was very disappointing. I had an Avo toast with cold (!) eggs, the Avo smash was not freshly made, already brown and tasted old. The bread was cold & hard. So very unpleasant…

I came across this lovely little café by chance, and I’m so glad I did. I loved that they kept both the name and the menu in their local language—it made the whole place feel so authentic. With its tiny tables overlooking the canal, it has such a cozy charm. I only stopped for a coffee, but sitting there and wandering the streets afterward, feeling like a local for a little while, was such a special experience. If you’re in the area, definitely stop by—you’ll probably fall in love with it too.

I got the sander Koffiehuis specialty and it was amazing! The waitresses we had were very polite and made the whole experience comfortable for us. They were also patient with us! 10/10 experience if we'll come back in Amsterdam we will definitely revisit!

We had a very pleasant time at this streetside cafe. We sat inside and had delicious apple pie and coffee. Service was excellent and friendly. We were welcome. Thank you.

The owner is super nice, had some nice drinks, and it's just a nice location with a cozy atmosphere :)

Friendly staff and the food was delicious, thank you!

Very cute and quaint spot. Farmers omelette was very good, and coffee exceptional. Highly recommend.

After waiting for half an hour, we inquired about our food. They told us, as an excuse, that the cutlery had gotten mixed up during the table change. We had only changed tables five minutes earlier, so that couldn't be true. What started as a good experience ended as a bad one.

The pancakes were great! And the staff provided good service.

Lovely food, lovely staff. Thank you.

Good, simple and authentic fare, perfect for a light lunch or cake/snacks. Very friendly staff

Amazing little coffee shop right next to the canal. Great service and super tasty apple pie. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!

Were turned away upon arrival at 4:30 because they were closed (they were customers in the coffee house and online it said until 5)

The atmosphere, the price, the French toast, and the crepes were fantastic.

A cappuccino without latte art is never good.

Awesome food, service and great prices! Thank you!

I loved the apple pie with whipped cream, simply spectacular. The coffee and sandwiches were good. My mimosa was disappointing; I think the oranges should have been sweeter.

We walked 30 minutes today to have lunch at this restaurant at 12:30 pm and were disappointed to find it closed! There was no information about it online or on the restaurant door... It was even listed as open on Google!

Professional and friendly service, the breakfast was delicious, highly recommended. However, the breakfast knives are dull ;)

The atmosphere of this little cafe is cute. Very welcoming and the host are friendly. In terms of the food, there it wasn’t mind blowing. Very good portions. The apple pie was nice, but I’ve had better elsewhere

Warm early Spring day, sitting outside. Lovely staff and tasty food.

Great, felt very much at home. Will definitely come back.

A very friendly welcome, local food ranging from a modern twist on the classic croque monsieur to omelets. I recommend the vegetable soup with sausages and bacon, perfect for winter.

Love this place. Great staff and wonderful food. Oh… and the coffee is phenomenal.

A lovely café to enjoy a big slice of apple pie and a cup of coffee! Friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

We visited for breakfast twice and had the pancakes. The AB pancake was maybe the best pancake I’ve ever had in my life. Really cute and cosy cafe.

The restaurant has a delicious and clean breakfast, and the service is excellent 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

A lovely café in a great location for food and drinks. Polite and friendly staff.

Gorgeous coffee house, perfect spot for brunch. Recommend the Engin Fried Eggs

Another great find in Amsterdam. Perfect for breakfast or brunch. The coffee was excellent and the Dutch apple pie is homemade and delicious. Nice relaxing space with good music playing in the background. Staff very friendly and attentive.

We enjoyed the breakfast. The fact that it's right on the corner and has views from two sides is great.

A great find, discovered by chance. Vintage yet always welcoming atmosphere, friendly service, and excellent value for money (simple but well-prepared dishes, delicious apple tart with homemade whipped cream). Ideal for brunch in the neighborhood!

Stumbled across this place for a tea and cake. Beautiful place. Super friendly staff. The apple pie was wow! Really nice vibe, music and very busy. Would return.

The small cafe is packed with people. The apple pie is not too sweet and feels healthy. The hot chocolate tastes like warmed supermarket milk, so keep that in mind.

Super good cappuccino, friendly people. They even politely say hello when you come in and when you leave. Feel free to have a coffee here. Thanks!

Super cozy café with friendly staff and great coffee! The selection of cakes isn't too big, however the food I ordered on one of my visits arrived promptly. The Reuben Sandwich is good for the price, Flat White and Cappuccino are outstanding. Great for watching Amsterdam streets, grabbing a quick coffee, or even sitting outside if the sun comes out.

Called in when the apple pie caught my eye through the window. Absolutely gorgeous, so different to pie in the UK. Beautiful pastry, packed with apple that has texture and not too sweet. Lovely chilled atmosphere.

We found this cute cafe by the canals and decided to come here the next morning to have breakfast. The apple pie is so good, especially the crust. One of the best apple pie I’ve ever tried! Usually I don’t like whipped cream but their cream is really soft and not heavy at all, it complements the pie very well! The atmosphere of the cafe is very cozy and the interior is really nice. The staff is also very friendly and welcoming! Definitely will come back here again next time we visit Amsterdam!

Big tasty traditional portions at one of the most beautiful spots in the center of Amsterdam. Do not skip!!! Stuff very friendly

The perfect spot for a cozy break: the warm and authentic brown café atmosphere immediately puts you at ease. They serve excellent coffee, simple yet flavorful dishes, and delicious local pastries that will make you want to come back. A no-frills spot, just charm and authenticity. I highly recommend it! ☕✨

Just a quick cup of coffee with a canal view. Great place, reasonable prices, and old-fashioned charm.

Beautiful location, friendly staff and typical European small cafe feel. As a staunch coffee critique I found their flat white to be one of the best I've ever had! Also, the Mexicana omelette was to die for - great flavours, sumptuous fillings and the chutney was splendid.

Our best breakfast from our Amsterdam vacation Everything from the different bread options to the granola was really tasty. Staff was very kind. Still regretting not tasting the applecake which also looked amazing.

Their apple tarts were so good!! The cafe has welcoming atmosphere with friendly staffs. I had an apple tart at Winkel and felt it’s too sweet for me. But here, the tart tastes so balanced with fresh apple and raisin filling. They also have good coffee and tea.

Try their mint tea. A peaceful and tranquil establishment

Friendly service, horribly food. We ordered the omelette and avocado toast, which was a mistake…The bread was soggy, the type you feed the seagulls. And taste was…let’s say, i put my fork down after 1 bite. And the price? €17, way too high!! Sorry, but please only order coffee or a pancake, save yourself a disappointment.

The best and hospitable place for breakfast ! Became a second home for me

40 years old Koffiehuis run by 2nd generation, come before 9am to feel the deep & warm local vibe without tourists

Very kind staff, great location and lovely drinks

Enjoyed the breakfast and the atmosphere. I ordered a flat white and a hot chocolate, but a cappuccino was served instead of the hot chocolate. After clarifying, I asked for it to be replaced with the correct drink, but the cappuccino was still included on the bill.

Beautiful canalside café, very pretty. Excellent service, quick once you're seated.

Great fresh food , had an amazing caprese salad and pumpkin soup . Apple pie is great too , very fresh! Great friendly atmosphere, nice service.

The Super is out-of this World Delicious. So big it's Shareable, but also edible solo - an unusual leisure, these days, and first time for me 🙏❤️

We had lunch in on a Friday afternoon. It was cozy, welcoming, and the staff were super friendly and attentive. The food was excellent, and we'll definitely be back.

Below average coffe, the capucchino foam was full of large air bubbles, they just dont care.

The Reuben I had blew me away, wife thoroughly enjoyed the tuna melt too. Great service, vibe and music, oh, and the apple pie, you really gotta save room for that too!

Fantastic location near to the Anne Frank museum, very friend and welcoming but the pancakes were slightly under done

It has a very sweet atmosphere. The staff is very friendly. Even though I'm very picky about omelets, I loved the omelet here!! I definitely recommend it.

Lovely people, great atmosphere. You're welcome ❤️

I was here with my son Tuesday September 3, 2025, As a native of the Jordaan from Egelantierstraat, I have finished my little Dokumantaire about the part of the Jordaan and hopefully I will publish this video at the end of September. My thanks to the owner of the coffee house De Hoek for the delicious apple pie😋 and the tasty coffee👍🏻☕️. Hopefully we will come back to visit you again. Greetings from Norway From Hubertus & Iwan🇳🇴🇳🇱🙏🏻☮️💫🇳🇱 p.s. I found my medication. Thanks for checking it with you.🙏🏻👍🏻

Worst dining experience I've had in Amsterdam. Terrible service. We didn't even get a chance to eat because we had to leave to avoid continued mistreatment by the woman operating on us. I absolutely do not recommend it.

Excellent apple and cinnamon pancakes. The glass of berry lemonade was a bit bland. In the terribly small toilet, you can barely turn around, and your knees are against the toilet door.

Perfect! When we're in Amsterdam city center, we'll grab a quick bite to eat at "De Hoek."

We loved this place. We went there 3 times during our week in Amsterdam. It’s a good option for breakfast. But the most important reason to visit is the apple pie. It is absolutely delicious. The location is nice and a couple of the outdoor tables are right by the canal. The service is friendly and kind. Highly recommend.

Worst browni and smallest cheesecake ever! Just a tourist attraction location

Beware! Huge tourist trap! Used to be fun. Not anymore. Unfriendly too. And way too expensive!

Beautiful and well-kept atmosphere, on a lively corner. The pancake was really good, and they have delicious organic fruit drinks.

You can sit en enjoy your brunch peacefully & also enjoy the canal view✨ I got the natural pancake with apples ita was very tasty! Also my fresh mint tea was surely fresh and revitalizing! I definitely recommend this place!

Very nice local coffee shop. We enjoyed our breakfast there a lot. Do not miss their homemade apple pie.

Wonderful food. Great owner and staff.

The sandwiches and desserts are definitely above average. Four stars might be a bit much for a place that only serves sandwiches and desserts, but for "just" sandwiches and desserts, they're truly delicious. The real highlight, however, is the slightly retro yet very charming and welcoming atmosphere. The perfect place for a stop on a day spent walking and exploring the city.

A must visit cafe. The real deal. The food is amazing and the location and atmosphere is so great. Highly recommend.

Really bad coffee with bitter aftertaste, no biscuit, sugar cube halved and filthy toilet. Service unfriendly. Ugh how dirty. How dare they.

I had the club sandwich, which really hit the spot after lots of walking around! Sitting outside provided us with an endless parade of exciting people watching and enjoying the beautiful weather.

We ate Apple Pie and a Brownie here. Really tasty! Both the apple pie and the brownie! Service is nice and prices are very fair too! 5/5

+ A cozy Jordanese catering establishment + Friendly and courteous staff + excellent coffee + delicious apple pie. Apples in slices are a bit easier to eat. + Highly recommended

The best breakfast of my life. I recommend this place 100%. It has tables by the canal and is beautiful inside.

Vinimos aquí por la famosa tarta de manzana holandesa y café — y no decepcionó! El servicio era excelente, y el personal era increíblemente amable. La vista al canal hizo la experiencia aún más especial. Como empresa propiedad de mujeres, es maravilloso apoyar, ¡y lo recomendamos encarecidamente!

Typical city coffee house. Welcoming staff, the bacon and apple pancake was delicious as was the coffee. Arrived around 10 am on a weekday, plenty of room to sit.

Delicious breakfast!!! We had eggs, bacon, avocado, toast, banana pancakes, and avocado breakfast toast/sandwich. All was fantastic. I forgot to take photos, but check out the apple pie!

I was at De Hoek a week ago. A total disaster! The blonde waitress with the ponytail was really rude. I had to ask for water twice. The table next to me immediately got a jug with glasses and tap water. After a long wait, I got a small glass with a bit of water. Generally, English tourists are served much faster and more politely there. That's a total no-go! Then I wanted to pay inside and three waiters deliberately ignored me until I finally spoke to them. Who do they think they are in that place? They have no food culture at all, no good quality, nothing! But they do have exorbitant prices and an arrogance that I don't understand where they get it from, given what they serve. I miss the old Amsterdam of about 10-15 years ago. It may be true that there were almost only coffee shops back then, but the people were much more relaxed and friendly!

Simple cafe on the canal with fresh options

Nice restaurant to relax and enjoy a drink a food

Great little cafe to enjoy some food and drink whilst watching the world go by. The apple pie was amazing. I also ordered a Rueben (sandwich) that was delicious

A perfect day break for beers and small sandwiches. Highly recommend

The staff is warm as well as the charm of the interior. I had my breakfast every morning for 2 weeks here. There's a wonderful view and comfortable outside or inside. The food is delicious and the service is fast.

I had to wait 45 minutes for a banana pizza. When I got the pizza there was little benaan on it and I at least expected the pancake to be tasty. That's it, but not that they are better than the ones I eat at home

One of the most recommended places to eat within the nine streets. The workers, 10.

Cozy place with good food and fast service! Can definitely be recommended!

Small cafe in the center of Amsterdam. Few tables inside. Another 3 tables outside near the sidewalk. The scent of the croissants is perceived as soon as you cross the threshold of the restaurant. Low volume Italian music leaves a sense of tranquility and peace. A really good breakfast.

Just a typical small coffee on a canal.

Fresh ingredients, delicious food, fast service. Beautiful, comfortable, and laid-back atmosphere inside. We absolutely loved this place!

El personal era tan encantador aquí, se sentía como retroceder en el tiempo un poco, la decoración y el ambiente en el interior era encantador, muy acogedor.

What a nice tent. Original, nice menu with regular sandwiches instead of all kinds of hip ones. Clean and tidy. Very hospitable service.

direkt an der Prinsengracht findet man seit 1954 das gemütliche Kaffeehaus De Hoek mit schöner Terrasse an der Prinsengracht. Ein Besuch lohnt sich. Der Service ist nett und wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!

As God commands, the reuben is very delicious

We came for breakfast after visiting the Anne frank house. Food was perfect and set us up for the day. Try the traditional uitsmijter which is fried eggs on bread with ham and cheese- delicious! I added mushrooms to mine aswell.

Me encantó este lugar lindo y acogedor. La comida, especialmente las tortillas eran excelentes, y el personal es súper amable e increíble. Me sentí como en casa ❤️

Cafe like one of those movies that make you dream, on the corner to watch the day go by, very good homemade food at a good price and attention as if you were with family.
