Selma’s (centrum) in Grachtengordel-West

Excellent coffee and delicious pastries. The price is very reasonable and the staff are very friendly. I highly recommend this place!

That was a freaking delicious pastry! Coffee was good too

We had coffee several places in Amsterdam (flat whites) and this is the best one we've had. Actually best coffee we had if we include other cities in our trip. Both my partner and I agree Also I had some focaccia bread which was absolutely delicious - 10 out of 10.

Cinnamon rolls are sooooo good! Nice people and good.coffee!

Delicious matchas and pastries and very nice and friendly service from the barista guy!

lovely staff, great coffee and delicious looking sweets!

So so good ! I had breakfast here and I loved it ! Amazing cinnamon bun and cappuccino. You have vegan milk and food options. Really good service too. I’m a fan. You have two seats by the window but it’s mostly takeout.

One of the best coffee and pastries in town! And as a cherry on top absolutely charming staff members. I love this place and recommend it to all my friends

Cute little place in the heart of Amsterdam. The matcha latte was great but could have a little bit more matcha. Happy they had coconut milk which makes it a smooth experience. Price for a matcha is super reasonable. The guy working there does not speak Dutch but he did some effort which I appreciated. The pastries look amazing so I need to come back.

Very atmospheric! Love this place

I had high hopes because of the reviews and made an order for some new years buns. Even though they looked beautiful they are super dry. The chai latte I ordered was also more Milk flavored then chai. :(

the barista with the curly hair made my day :) he’s so sweet and smiley and the coffee was delicious

Great store with good service. If something isn't to your liking, please contact the store to resolve it. I give 5 stars for the solution offered. They serve delicious coffee.

Pastries from jumbo taste better somehow

Brilliant coffee and pistachio cookies!

This little bakery Selma’s wow! We’ve been twice in the space of a year while visiting the city. It was actually our go to place for breakfast. And could not wait to visit again on our recent trip, What an absolute delight. Croissants and filled bakes and coffee. Will not be matched. Very reasonably priced for quality of product as well. The staff are an actual credit to the place. Doing some very fine. Thank you for the experience

The matcha is delicious and the pastries are sweet. Even the staff is very friendly.

I love stopping by Selma on my way to my wife, their croissants are always perfect. A small ritual that never disappoints.

Fresh Cinnamon buns right out of the oven! Fantastic! Cookies are absolutely wonderful.

Sweets and pastries a little better than average. Bad coffee - excessive amount of milk, even after adding another shot of espresso the coffee is not strong. Flavorless… No toilets.

Michael and Marianne, best baristas ever

Pastry was excellent. Coffee was average. Did not like that it was disposable cups and food packaging only, seems unnecessarily wasteful.

A little place with very limited places to sit, but the bakery items are to die for!

The tastiest Swedish pastries in Amsterdam!!😍 with super nice staff!

Nice small selection that’s a good quality.

Good for solo walking, only bench chairs but fantastic mind clearing place

Had a very disappointing experience with this bakery, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone relying on them for a special occasion. We reached out via their website contact form to order a cake for a special event. It took them three days to respond. Once they finally replied and confirmed they could make the cake, we responded promptly with all the details, asking to pick it up two days later. When we arrived, no cake had been prepared. The staff claimed they never received our response and placed all the blame on us, showing no accountability or effort to resolve the issue. We were left without a cake and with a very negative impression of both their service and attitude.

Very good cinnamon bun and matcha 🍵

Pastry is OK, but nothing special and expensive. Staff (obviously) doesn't speak a word of Dutch, because apparently that's not necessary anymore in Amsterdam city center. Typically a place for gen Z tourists, expats and oat milk elite with Gooische rrr.

Superb pastries. Highly recommend

this focaccia is one of the best things i’ve ever eaten. great coffee too. people who work there are very nice and cool. 10/10.

The cinnamon bun was a bit dry and matcha wasn’t good either

Great cinnamon buns and friendly staff

Excellent vegan desserts too Good coffee

Great cardamom buns and delicious coffee from the portafilter machine.

Of all the wonderful cafes in Amsterdam, this one was our favorite! The quality of the coffee was fantastic

Does not take cash for their cardamom buns

This was the BEST cinnamon bun of my life - and I had many of them! Not too sweet, not too fat, light and full of taste! They were still warm when I came - amazing. 🫶🏼 Prices are very decent & well chosen, compared to other unnecessarily overpriced bakeries in the city!

I tried the cardamon bun and was disappointed:( unfortunately, it was quite dry

Still by the far the best cardamom buns this city has to offer. Only downside is a lack of seating space. But you can enjoy your treat instead on a walk around the canals :)

I took away the cardamon bun. It was okayish. Because I just ordered that and left , I can’t comment on other parts.

It was nice to seat outside and have a good espresso shot with sweets they have and just relax Everything was delicious, nice service, definitely would come back

I was craving a hot drink and found this warm little place. I saw they had matcha on the menu so I ordered some and they made it for me just right. I like it when the barista takes their time making a drink and provides excellent service. I haven't tried their bakery but it looks really tasty.

Great vegan options! Will be back.

This is a take away shop, the boy there is very unmotivated and the prices for bakery quite high.no seating possibility. Didn't feel very welcome.

Best matcha and cheese croissant I’ve ever had!

Very cute and little shop offering fantastic food and delicious coffee! Super friendly staff. Everything what you need from the good cafe shop.

Amazing coffee and fresh pastries. Highly recommend

STOP everything and run to this place! I bumped by chance into this place on my way to work. BEST coffee and pastries in Amsterdam. Service is friendly and fast. It is Nordic inspired. I went every day to pick my latte and cinnamon bun. It is cozy - So not so much place; but don’t hesitate to pass by and try. Trust me you won’t be disappointed! Thank me later.

Chai latte, cinnamon bun, croissant, cheese crossaint all very tasty 😋

Selma’s is a very small, cute coffee shops with Nordic pastries, but you can also find carrot cake, different types of croissants or vegan coconut balls. The barista lady was very kind and welcoming, the place has a nice vibe. You can sit inside on a piece of bench or outside but the place is more designed for take aways. I had a cinnamon bun, which was ok, not the best and freshest either. I would definitely come back for a nice flat white or matcha again.

Service has been very slow the line is out the door just waiting. They seem very short staffed :(

a very very very good matcha latte a very very very good coffee all staff were lovely pastries were perfect vibes were immaculate

I just stopped to get something quick before a museum, they made me a ham croissant as there weren’t any left and omg ! Best thing ever warm and delicious and they were super friendly with me !

Matcha wasn't properly mixed, as well as the cup not even bejng close to full (not the ice, just an unfilled cup!). Sad, because I heard good things. For the prices they ask for a subpar matcha latte, I'm not coming back.

coffee and matcha are great quality, stuff is super friendly and the buns are mouthwatering ! *I wish there would be more places to sit

It is okay for sometimes nothing special

Great coffee and buns. The guy was extremely kind! Excellent service. 👌

I've been going very often because the coffee and pastries are incredible, but mostly, the service is 10/10! The staff is super friendly, plus the tall curly barista is super sweet, his smile always makes my day!!

Great coffee and friendly staff!

Amazing coffee in a cute place. Not so many seats inside but it’s my take away coffee place ❣️

Unfortunately no decaf available. Tried the pistachio bun, but it’s rather disappointing. It was dry and not worth the 4,25 Euro. Service was friendly.

Flat white is cappuccino and cappuccino is a latte. I don’t know what in their mind is a latte. This is not speciality coffee, it is barely hobby coffee.

Love this place! Matcha is delicious

Buns are delicious but matcha latte was not tasty. Not well prepared and the flavour was weak.

The carrot cake was outstanding, wish I bought extra. Coffee was good too and the staff were very nice 👍

Really good breakfast. Super almond croissant! Small but welcoming place. It's a shame about the unsympathetic staff: even though there was no one to serve, they were in a hurry to close our account and didn't give any information on the choice of products.

The staff were pleasant but the chai lattes were a disappointment. Didn’t get to try the pastries.

Amazing scandivanian coffee spot!

My favorite place for coffee in the city ! I went everyday during my holiday and got their latte (honestly best in Amsterdam); definitely get the pistachio twist which was so delicious ! Service was excellent and vibes are very chill. LOVE THIS PLACE :)

Very often your order is canceled and they are suddenly no longer open for delivery. Or a lot is sold out, while according to UE you could still order it. The food is really tasty, but the service almost makes me decide not to even try it again. It's a shame that there is no good continuity here

The almond croissant is really tasty.

Nice cardamom knot. Decent Croissant Coffee could be better.

First bite of croissant literally stopped us in our tracks.

DELICIOUS CINNAMON ROLLS!!!!!!!!

Nice and lovely smile from the service. Coffee is okay.

The cutest café with great coffee and pastries. The only downside is that majority of food is out of stock (I guess due to its success ;) )

Cute little bakery with an amazing cinnamon rolls and banana bread

Nice people working there but overall the drinks aren’t very good and quite expensive. My milk was barely steamed and there wasn’t much flavor in a chai latte.

They were very kind to me, even though I made a mess spilling the tea. They were kind and forgiving, and even offered me a treat

The taste of the bread are very good, especially the cinnamon bun.

Kardemom in plaats van cinnamon was een keer lekker, maar de bun was best droog. Zou er zeker niet voor terugkomen.

They have plant based kanelbullar and a vegan grilled sandwich with imitation feta and spinach. They also have gravlax and smoke salmon themselves. A little taste of Sweden in Amsterdam, highly recommend.

Had a hot chocolate and cinnamon roll. Both were absolutely delicious, worth the price! Friendly and enthousiastic staff. Will definitely be returning here!

I added this spot to my favorites. I was in the neighborhood, and I stopped by to grab some lunch. Fresh and tasty sandwiches (I recommend the artichokes, spinaches, and feta) , Nordic bakery assortment, and great coffee. The staff is kind and polite, which is a nice touch. I got some sweets to take away, and they are delicious. There are a couple of seats available inside on a bench and a couple of seats available on a bench outside. I liked the relaxed atmosphere.

I didn’t have the capacity to sample the delicious-looking pastries but the coffee was great.

The shop is so clean. The employee was super friendly and nice. This place has the best coffee and pastries. The pastries felt like they just came out of the oven. Melted in my mouth. Very delicious 🤤 Can’t wait to be back in Amsterdam and have this again.

I’m from the states and I would fly back to Amsterdam just to get their almond croissant again. It was the best I’ve ever had, in my whole life.

Good latte, good pastry selection in a great location!

Great drinks. Really good cinnamon rolls with cardamom spice as well. Super smooth cappuccino. Also tried the chai tea that was excellent, pretty sure they make their own blend bc it had a pleasant, unique flavor.

This was the loveliest bakery&café I've seen so far. The espresso was delicious and the vegan lemon cake was so fluffy and fresh! Made my day better, thank you ❤️

Super nette Inhaberin. Und omg, der beste Mandelcroissant, den ich je gegessen habe. Wenn ich in Amsterdam leben würde, hätte ich den mir jeden Tag geholt. 😍😊

Very lovely Café, super tasty Croissants and coffee/tea. Also the staff was super nice. Would definitly revisit this location☺️

Best banana bread in town :) Coffee is also very good.

Velice příjemná obsluha, výborný mandlový croissant (nikdy jsem neměla lepší) a i skořicová roláda. Měli jsme capuccino, které nemělo chybu. Plus velmi chill posezení s výhledem na okolí. Ráda se sem vrátím, až budu zase v Amsterdamu :)

(One of) The best croissant in AMS.

Delicious coffee and gorgeous sourdough 👌🏻

Ein wundervolles kleines Café. Die Vanille-Himbeer Schnecken waren traumhaft 🩷

Really great croissants! Friendly service.

Een stukje Zweden in Amsterdam. Leuke service, helaas zonder zweedse semla's maar met zeer lekkere kardemummabullar
