loof in Da Costabuurt

I like this place, the krentenbollen especially are great, but I find the bread and pastries have such a strange silky texture and are lacking flavour. I’m used to sourdough so maybe it’s the lack of sourdough flavour.

Just stopped by accidentally. Recommend croissant and pastry. Amazing vibe

The pastries here are perfection. Very relaxed and chill vibe with friendly service, coffee also great.

Solid baguette, good selection of pastries and savory treats. Lines can be a bit silly, but mostly due to small staff doing everything and trying to keep coffees flowing and large takeaway orders moving.

Lovely bakery in Oudwest! It has a nice atmosphere, and delicious offerings.

Nice and beautiful tent with friendly staff. I personally thought the cheese croissant was too greasy, but in my opinion it could have been lighter. Pac was better in comparison! Would come back and try again :)

Beautiful location, delicious treats and good coffee

Ze hebben “geen wc”… helaas dus voor iedereen die ergens lekker wil zitten en weleens moet plassen. I will adjust it as requested: if you have medical problems and therefore often have to go to the toilet, it is particularly annoying if an uninterested girl tells you to pee next door while you can see the toilet. Here the tone is what makes the music.

Slightly overpriced as all the cool bakeries in Amsterdam. Delicious sweet options though. I like their kaas croissant too.

Nice bakery! - The reason why I don’t give 5 stars is that I don’t go crazy for their options, like the type of pastries they propose. I do recognise they’re tasty and good quality but I tend to like slightly different options in a bakery - Prices are okay! - Location is in oud west close to busy areas of the city and its well connected - the atmosphere inside is 10/10 because the aesthetic and interiors are absolutely great, really loved the vibe there. There are some seats and it was great to be reading there - staff was friendly! Maybe for my taste it’s not my cup of tea as a bakery but I know it’s still very popular and of high quality

Delicious breakfast, very tasty bread - a bit cramped inside.

Worth the hype and the wait. Coffee is perfect, sun was shining through the windows glistening the pastries and the cheese/mustard laminated pastry was mind blowing. It’s a must for an Amsterdam visit.

Delicious coffee and pastries! Their ham and cheese croissant is too die for! Services is fast and everything is fresh.

Very nice bakery, delicious bread. Sitting comfortably

Excellent sourdough bread! Didn’t have the chance to try their pastries but I’m sure they’re equally as delicious. The bread is made fresh in the shop and you can see the process happen behind the counter.

Bakery Louf… lives up to its reputation. The bread is really good.

Half coffe place, half bakery. Their coffee, sourdough bread, croissants are nice and not overprices. BUT The smell is sooooo heavy that stinks on your clothes. The owner should find a solution for that....

Part baker of sourdough bread, baguettes and pastries. Partly a coffee shop to meet up and have something to eat. Everything is tasty, staff very friendly. Sometimes very busy so the waiting time can increase.

Louf could easily be the best looking, local, bakery in town. I am happy to support local businesses if they give me a reason to come back but Amsterdam gastronomic expenses mostly go into branding and marketing rather than the product. Staff on average don’t “sell”, they just “serve”. At Louf its the same, making it a “drive through” bar. As for the products, I still don’t understand why we still having this quality in Amsterdam.. Unfortunately they aren’t as good as everything here looks. Went for croissant and pain au chocolate and a cappuccino in two different times of the year to see if it was chance. They were the most greasy pastries i’ve ever had.. dripping really! Had to pass my hands on three paper napkins to remove the grease. Heavy on the stomach, poor for the palate. Pastries should be light and fragrant, thats really enough. And for the price i’d expect to smell orange notes, vanilla… anything. Sadly, same disappointment for the coffee: it was burnt and acidic... milk was not warm. In the city, bars typically add 70-90% margin over coffees. This means that a “latte macchiato” costs around 0.3-0.5€ to make and is priced at >4.5€ making it a 90% margin. If you gonna charge that much over it, back it up! The bakery is definitely the anchor point of your business and it would def be my trusty local bakery - but this experience did not make my day so i never came back after it. Ya’ll don’t need to be a bar - there are plenty already - but if you open yet another coffee place in this town just to market your awesome bakery display, might be worth while training one or two staff about proper coffee extraction… cheap labour doesn’t save on costs. But one day in Italy is enough to acquire a sense of hospitality and the taste of good coffee love🩷and really hope to come back again🙏🏼

The taste of pastries is wonderful!

Sublime! Here you want to taste everything

Cozy nice bakery, nice place to sit, delicious coffee sandwiches

Great bakery in the neighbourhood

coffee will take a while here, too cramped inside.

The bakes and sandwiches here are amazing. Everything bakes in store it seems and it all looks amazing, will definitely be back many times.

Best local café and bakery in entire amsterdam. A must!

Very nice place with a couple of tables to sit and eat. Everything is nice except for the fact that there is NO VEGAN OPTION other than plain bread which is very disappointing.

Superb coffee. Good pastries for breakfast options

This is a vibrant bakery with limited seating for dining in, they offer some outdoor benches which will be nice if it is not raining. They have a huge crowd coming for their pastries but cashier is efficient so wait is short. Their baked goods are excellent. I enjoyed my special cheese and cranberry sauce sandwich; they complement each other perfectly. This bakery is definitely worth another visit for their pastries!

Overall disappointed by the pastries which were not soft enough and overcooked. The bread, however, is very good.

My favorite bakery! The pastries are amazing. Love their coffee too. This place gets busy so be prepared to be in line if you’re coming at a popular time.

Best coffee, bread and viennoiserie gem in West. Everything is made with so much love by the nicest passionate staff, who always make you feel at home. One of the baker boys Sweder proudly gave me a wonderful delicious focaccia to taste. I’ll be back!

Best bread in town, cozy vibes and delicious goodies

Really nice bakery. Often have to do the queue but it’s going pretty fast. Loved the pepito !

Delicious coffee and tasty home-made bread. Highly recommended!

I went to meet up with two friends, they had great specialty coffees with cow- and plant based milks. Lovely looking (and tasty!) pastries and bread, the staff was friendly and helpful. Overall atmosphere was very calming and enjoyable. Definitely recommend 🤍

Delicious sandwiches and interesting ingredient combinations.

Louf is always the best pastry in Amsterdam. The queue can be long be the service is super fast and the food well worth the wait 😁

Escargot (vin au raisin) tastes ordinary

Louf is an absolute gem of a bakery in Amsterdam! The cozy ambiance and inviting vibe make it the perfect spot to unwind. I had an oat flat white, and it was simply delicious—smooth and perfectly made. Their baked goods are equally impressive, from the fragrant cardamom pastry to the indulgent Petitos (a larger, chocolate-filled croissant-like pastry) and an amazing apple pastry. Each bite was delightful, and it’s clear they put a lot of care into their creations. I really enjoyed my time here and will definitely be back. Highly recommended for anyone who loves great coffee and fresh, flavorful pastries!

Laid back and lovely. Good food, good coffee and tea.

Authentic oven where you can taste very well-made products

My daily Bread supply in Amsterdam. Great quality and very consistent. Good to have you in my neighbourhood!

Best cinnamon rolls I've ever eaten

Waiting too long for coffee that is lukewarm.

I had a cheese sandwich and a cinnamon roll croissant. The cheese sandwich was very nice but a little heavy. It may not suit everyone's taste, but I liked it very much. Cinnamon roll was amazing. It is both light and extremely delicious. Must definitely beat.

Very cozy and delicious! Highly recommended 👌

Very good sourdough bread and my fav is their pain au chocolat with hazenults. I love it. Nice vibe as well.

This cafe is definitely one of the top cafes in Amsterdam. Located in west, you will find a cozy ambiance indoor and a street-style outdoor. Wide variety of options and the taste is simply great. Their coffee is also super good and they offer all kind of options. Staff are very friendly and helpful

Great bakery, shame they don’t serve decaf 😱 would be nice if they could have some tables outside to accomodate the crowds. Also, if you’re dining in, there is no table service you have to join the long queue, which is a pain.

Nice atmosphere and great pastries selection! Perfect during nice weather with the outdoor seating. The coffee was great too.

Great cafe and break,natural and simple deco bakery shop!Oct.22.2024

They have delicious baked goods, great coffee, the most delicious sandwiches I've ever eaten... we'll be back again thank you

Good coffee and the croissants, rolls and cardamon swirl are super tasty. Price-performance very good.

Amazing products and staff. The best in Amsterdam!

Best bakery of our trip! Good selection of sweet and savory. Coffees were also very good. A good bit of indoor seating and some benches outside too but it gets very busy so seating may be full.

Their pain au chocolat is very good.

I could drink coffee & eat here every morning. Excellent pastry options and the coffee was divine. The staff were super nice as well.

We came here on a Saturday morning and it was packed!! Luckily we got ourselves a seat. I like the vibe here, even thought it wish it were a bit more spacious. The pastries were really delicious! The coffees were also very nice. The staffs were friendly and helpful. Would love to come back here again and try other pastries.

Great pastry - very buttery, but not as oily as Fort Negen for example. Nice mix of fresh breads and pastries both sweet and savory, excellent coffees. Well managed line and a nice atmosphere inside.

Sourdough is okay, not the best I’ve had in the city and not the worst. There are no vegan options in terms of pastry.

The vegan sandwich was tasty & filling - good! But we waited for a LONG time for our two coffees… the vibe is okay - but the place is quite tiny, need to “hunt” for a table…

Michelin star level pastries, I kid you not. 👌🏼

Veeeeery taste bakery. I eat hear every day of my trip! Recommend with cheese and hum 💔 Stylish people around make good vibe

We tried to try almost all of their products in two days. We were very pleased with all of them. Their coffee is very delicious. I liked it very much.

Great bakery and shop . Friendly staff and really professional. I tried the sourdough bread and their homemade pastry and I think it is really worth a 5 star plus .

best pastries in Amsterdam hands down - if you go there get the Kaas Mustard pastry!

This place is super cute and the vibe is truly to just pick up a pastry, enjoy it outside and continue on your bike. BEST COOKIE OF MY LIFE!

Very nice bakery. Super tasty viennoiserie, definitely recommended!

Really great bakery, some good prices and the staff is really nice. Thank you!

I bought a loaf of sourdough from here. It was the BEST sourdough I’ve ever had. Dough hydration was perfect, and the taste was amazing. Would also recommend getting a coffee here as well🫶

Best coffee service and croissants in AMS ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Super flakey croissants. Mustard and ham&cheese were good. Coffees were average. Got here around 9am weekday, wasn’t busy and had sests available. Staff were friendly. Got a hipster vibe about it. I would recommend their croissants.

The best bread in Amsterdam, I cycle 5 km to get the bread there. It is moist and very good quality, it does not spike my sugar level as other bread does. Very happy with this bakery.

Good quality bakery in west. Prices are more reasonable than other ‘trendy’ bakeries in Amsterdam. Great focaccia as well!

This bakery met every expectation I had and was even more cosy than I had anticipated! Will most definitely make my way back here one day.

Absolutely tastetastic. Everything. Best find so far.

Super cute cafe and bakery. Came here just to buy the entire bakery to gift friends and family. Totally delish and open on Sundays. Winning.

The pastries were great, you can see the bakery and can comfortably browse through baking and cookbooks. A good sourdough bakery!

This bakery is my best pic in Amsterdam so far. They provide the bread of the week, which requires much much thoughts for selecting each week. And all of the breads I tried so far was delicious. Only one thing I couldn’t see the toilets but maybe they have?

Very tasty 🤤 we had 2 different sandwiches and both amazing 🤩 definitely my new favourite place, also very good price 🙏🏽

Best bread, great coffee, but way too busy…

Louf in the picturesque heart of Amsterdam offers top quality products. The bakers show excellent craftsmanship. Their croissants: crispy on the outside, velvety soft on the inside. For only €4.50 you can enjoy an excellent espresso and delicious croissant, ideal to start your day. Louf is an absolute must for gourmets.

I've been to all the bakeries like Arms, but this one does some bread. The sourdough is especially delicious, so be sure to try the pastrami sandwich, and the cinnamon bun is perfect to fill your mouth. Coffee is just okay.

This has become my favourite sourdough bakery in town! Highly recommend the baguette, croissant and if you’re in for a special treat: hazelnut pain au chocolat and the orange blossom brioche. I’ve seen people drink coffee here but I’ve always gotten a take away. Not a lot of place to sit down but you can head to the next door park for a stroll!

Great bakery and coffee shop. Lots of amazing choices, bread options, and great coffee. Went with the apple danish and cappuccino and both were excellent. Handful of tables and makeshift seating.

Amazing bakery with lots of options, best sourdough in Amsterdam

Delicious croissants and super nice people

Believe me, you'll want to detour for the currant buns with cheese... The luxurious cheese croissant is also a favorite, and the breads are *chefs kiss*

Please advertise that you do not allow laptops! There were no signs, and this led to quite a bad experience. My partner and I walked in at 14:30 today, and he sat down and opened his laptop to work while I waited to order our drinks. It was a sunny day, so others sat outside on the bench, but we were the only ones at a table inside. I ordered, sat down, and opened a book, while the staff made drinks and cleared another table. After a few minutes, our drinks were dropped off with an unfriendly “no laptops”. I then had to go back to the bar and get to-go cups as we obviously could not stay any longer. It sucks we were only notified after the drinks had been ordered and brought to us (as the staff was around our table before then). I had to hurriedly pour our drinks into to-go cups and leave to return home since we could not go to another cafe with our drinks. We were excited to try out a new cafe as we just moved to the area, but this experience has left a bit of a bad taste in our mouths. The drinks were good, but not worth the price and experience.

Really nice place, good food, great people/service!

I loved the place ,they have the best sandwiches in town.

We had the plain croissant, chocolate croissant, and the apple Danish. Surprisingly the Danish was my favorite, and had a nice balance of sweet and buttery. The croissant was great, but it could use a bit more butter if you ask me ;-)

Some really great pastries. The plain croissant is as close as it gets to the best in. Amsterdam

Really delicious bread and friendly service.

Amazing pastries - some of the best in Amsterdam! Cozy location for breakfast.

Very nice place. The service was great. Host gave us a free cookie because they ran out of everything. One of the best cookies I have had. Will definitely visit again to try other items!

We went on a Saturday around 10:30am and there was a short queue (just 5 min wait). The apple danish, omelet croissant and cinnamon croissant were amazing 👌🏼 Would definitely come here again!

This is a true hidden gem. Such a great place to spend time. Vibe is so good. And than the staff, so friendly and helpful. Than the food, you won’t be disappointed, great quality freshly baked and they have specials like sandwiches with rabarber and such. Or their cookies or special croissants… i can go on and on. Just go their you won’t be disappointed. (Tip be early because once the sell out it’s not being restocked)

Great viennoiserie. The croissant had an excellent honey comb shape inside. The cinnamon knot was delicious. Reasonable price. The design of the places is very beautiful as well. It’s very small, but there is a beautiful park next door where you can have a picnic 😉
