Vennington in Grachtengordel-West

We discovered this bar almost by chance and we loved it. We ordered a lettuce, tomato, bacon and avocado sandwich, super good! Furthermore, the presentation was spectacular: you could see the care and attention to detail in each dish. The service was also ten. The waiter who served us was not only super friendly, but he was attentive to everything we needed. If you are in Amsterdam and looking for a place with good food, a cozy atmosphere and lovely staff, this bar is a safe bet. We will definitely return!

Delicious breakfast. Rachid is a true host and proud father and grandfather.

Enthusiastic welcome and service in a small but cozy restaurant where time seems to have stood still - in terms of decor - but I thought this only adds to the atmosphere; the manager was clearly triggered by our group in which we were Flemish, Speaking French and Italian at the same time, always a bonus if you can make contact with a local in a super touristy city like Amsterdam.

It’s the 3rd time I stop by in the course of 2 years. The quality and service is top notch and unchanged. My favorite combo : club sandwich and mango shake

Had a good pancake (of course it's hard to mess up a pancake). The service is incredible, the owner is amazingly friendly, syrup and powdered sugar are out on the tables, it smells amazing inside thanks to all the undoubtedly delicious sandwiches that are being produced. There is outdoor seating and it is not overrun with tourists. I can't wait to come back :)

Simple, tasty, cheap and a friendly man!

Really lovely place and the service couldn't be better, 100% recommend

Besttt - the food tastes amazing, quite big portions and good pricing, with the owner creating a fun and welcoming experience 💜

Food and service were great... I had an amazing sandwich!

My husband and I needed quick takeaway sandwiches as we needed to catch our boat tour. The owner asked how much time we had and was able to make our sandwiches straightaway and very tasty!

Stopped here get a quick coffee, Super friendly owner would 100% come back to say hello.

Stoked we stopped here for a takeaway sandwich and soda- did not disappoint! Had a nice greeting and enjoyed the patio while we waited for our sandwich's to be prepared. Will be back next time for sure!

Had a lovely time here. The owners are really nice and welcoming and we had a lovely chat with them. Really recommend it for brunch and coffee!

I liked this place. We sat outside and drank a cappuccino and an apple pancake. Very nice and hard working owner — he was working by himself the entire time and consistently checked in.

We come here rather often. The ABC sandwich and the chicken avocado sandwich are great! Agreeable place to sit on the terrace outside, watch Amsterdam go by. The owner is a funny guy.

My friend is a beloved character, very special, achalaga

Tastiest club sandwiches and super friendly owner. Highly recommended.

super welcoming atmosphere! the owner is a sweetie❤️ also super fun ‼️

We were warmly welcomed and well fed by the owner, Rashid. He was devoted to our satisfaction and a pleasure to talk with. Good eggs and bacon. Excellent coffee. It will be our breakfast destination on future visits.

Good food. Friendly service. Perfect spot for a sandwich and a drink on a sunny day in Amsterdam.

It had lovely food and friendly staff 😁

A gem. It's difficult to find a conventional breakfast place with good portions and prices in Amsterdam. Oh, there are upscale places where avocado toast is an art form, and delicious. Deze zijn ook goed. But, you know, sometimes we get nostalgic for a classic un-gentrified little cafe. We stumbled on this one. Want something a bit off-menu? Rashid will make it for you, "no problem". And it'll be terrific. He's been here for 14 years. The cafe has been here for 40. He's changed nothing, from the tables to the tiles, it's all original. Go to the fancy places first then you'll really appreciate this one.

The place looks dirty, with flys inside. We took bagel with salmon and it was the worst one I’ve ever tried. Small piece of salmon and old dry bagel that impossible to bite without breaking teeth.

One of my favourite little spots in Amsterdam for a sandwich! Cosy place to sit in and not usual Amsterdam prices. Would highly recommend!! Service always with a smile :)

10/10, had a delicious salmon club sandwich and banana milkshake. Made with love. As it should!

Illy coffee, which is worth it. Good service, very attentive and everything very clean. The gentleman very nice and helpful. Is it worth it.

No nonsense lunch place. Friendly owner and delicious Club Sandwich. Will be back for sure.

Best club sandwich in Amsterdam, and above all best service

Excellent place for a sandwich and or a cappuccino! They have multiple options on the menu and the price is affordable. Fruit shakes and shakes in general also available. I chose the ABC Club (Lettuce, chicken, tomato, bacon, avocado). It was very good.

Sehr nette Bedienung in verschiedenen Sprachen. Sehr leckeres Frühstück. Die Tomatensuppe war frisch und der Obstsalat frisch zubereitet.

Real sandwiches. Friendly service. Guuuuuuud place

Leuk tentje, goed menu. Meerdere vegan/vegetarische opties.

I'm a loyal customer, can't live without my weekly dosage of Vennington's club sandwiches

The owner is so personable and kind. He makes the best club sandwiches.

So lovely to be back here after many years. They recognised my face and knew my order from years ago! Great area to sit and people watch. Thank you for the excellent club sandwich and lovely welcome!

Sandwich(a must), desert and coffee absolutely amazing with good price, and service 10/10 🥙

Good place to eat at if you are heading on a boat tour with Those Dam Boat Guys. The cafe is right around the corner (literally) from the pick up spot. Fast service, outstanding and courteous service, free restrooms (!), good food. We sat outside in summer, I don’t know if outdoor seating is available in colder months. The owner is so nice and accommodating. Highly recommend this place. (Credit cards are accepted)

Super podnik, dobré jídlo a milá obsluha👍

I would eat these sandwiches everyday for the rest of my life & I didn’t know it was it was possible for a banana milkshake to taste so amazing.

Good club sandwich and good experience.

Fresh and high quality ingredients, everything tasted delicious. Get a shake while you’re there.. so yummy! Service is fantastic also.

Stopped by this cute little shop while we were waiting for the Anne Frank House. The shakes are amazing!!! We had a banana strawberry milkshake, a fruit shake and a sugar and syrup pancake, all were delicious. The owner was super friendly and was cracking jokes every time he came to our table. Definitely worth a stop!

Made a quick stop for a shake treat here and it was perfect! I got a strawberry banana shake with ice cream. Yummy! My husband got a strawberry banana fruit shake with orange juice. Also very good! The owner is awesome and so fun to chat with!

Extremely friendly service and atmosphere. Very good and well-priced food for a city-centre café. Would definitely return :)

We loved this cafe/ sandwich shop. The gentleman was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast sandwiches were delicious. The coffee was tasty.

We were in Amsterdam looking for a place to eat early on a Sunday morning before our visit to the Anne Frank House. Vennington was the only cafe open anywhere before 9:00 AM. Mr. Vennington could not have been a more gracious host. We thought the prices were comparable to just about everything else in the area, and truly, you cannot beat being "open" when no one else has woken up! We loved the fresh squeezed OJ. Thank you Mr. Vennington!!

Amazing place, very affordable and super nice owner. Good sandwiches and coffee

Als ik in de buurt ben ga ik hier altijd voor een clubsandwich en vanille shake. Beter vind je ze bijna nergens.

Went here a few months ago, had this saved on my list, hard to remember specifics but because i saved it, i’ll recommend it

Pretentieloos plekje met lekkere sterke koffie, aardige bediening en dito klanten. 😃

This was the first place we found open on a Sunday morning. I'm glad we found it because it was lovely. The gentleman was the only one working and he did a great job.

Really friendly and nice owner. The sandwiches, pancakes and fresh made juice were delicious! I can really recommend this place for breakfast.

Buono sandwich gestore gentile e simpatico Consigliato

Great place, vintage and warm deco, perfect for.snacking. Very kind owner, good service . Club sandwich recommended

The best place to eat, drink, laugh, live and die. Unpretentious (difficult to find in Amsterdam), delightful food and owned by the kindness man on earth. Rashid for president 🌷🥪☕️

A legendary amsterdam sandwich diner that’s been here for decades and serves affordable and tasty food perfect for breakfast and lunch. Down to earth and loved by the people 🥪🥯☕️

Everything delicious, excellent choice for breakfast near anne frank house. Excellent service. 100% recommended🥰

Nice food and drinks and friendly owner

Très bon accueil, nourriture excellente. Je recommande les yeux fermés.

Excellent service, recommended.

Parámos neste café para tomar o café da manhã, e foi uma excelente surpresa! Havia lugares disponíveis no terraço, aproveitámos para tomar o pequeno almoço ao sol. O serviço foi rápido e muito simpático, e sobretudo os preços bastante justos, em comparação com outros cafés da cidade, adorámos.

Heerlijke club sandwiches en vriendelijke eigenaar.

Two thin slices of pancakes + one glass of orange juice here was €18???? It is so expensive and he didn’t give us a receipt as well so we don’t know how he charged them. The menu said the orange juice was about €3.60 but that means each slice of pancake is ~€7… would recommend asking for the price first.
