We were in Amsterdam the second weekend of May
We discovered this place by chance but it's really worth it!!
The burgers are delicious and are carefully prepared by the chef Mina Adele
The staff is friendly and fast
Very honest prices compared to the Amsterdam average
Poor service, more than an hour late, which meant breakfast was served and the letter that should have been included was missing, which indicated what it was for. Poor service.
The bartender really goes above and beyond, inside and outside expectations. He definitely steps up his game for those five stars!
Bit strange to have to carry his bike in upon arrival, and do his laundy. But what else can be expected in exchange for this service.
Sandwiches are delicious, but around lunchtime they're always out of bread—the line is never very long, but it seems to take forever here. You'd think you could anticipate that, being a sandwich shop. Staff also calmly clean the windows with people waiting in line during rush hour. Oh well.
BEWARE!!
The chicken sandwich was literally spoiled.
I went inside to explain that selling spoiled chicken can be very dangerous.
He was completely unsympathetic and thought he was being smart.
Honestly, if there were zero stars, they'd have -10. I went in at night and didn't read that it said "English break," and since that's supposedly the most spoken language there, I spoke English. From that moment on, the server treated me horribly. There was another unpleasant white woman who also treated me terribly. I just wanted something hot to drink and plain water. They rushed me. What an awful experience! I'm human and I make mistakes. If they had told me not to speak English, I would have used a translator. Honestly, I don't recommend going if you want to be treated badly. What terrible service! I hope they see the comments and change the staff. Such bitter and unpleasant people! What a disgraceful service!
An inexpensive cafe in the city center. Very good service, friendly staff. Delicious food, fast preparation.
For the city center, the prices are very reasonable. You can sit both outside and inside.
Groot Gelderlandplein was recommended to me by an acquaintance as a good place to shop, my friend said! That was indeed the case, except at Bakkerij Jongejans. I was yelled at by an old fishwife from her counter by the pastries. I was standing in the wrong aisle by the bread and had one loaf in my hand. I wanted to ask her something and walked over with the bread, but she yelled that I wasn't allowed and that I was in the wrong aisle! I've never been there, so I might have made a mistake, but to be yelled at like that by an old fishwife with blonde hair and drawn eyebrows, I'd go to the market because at least they want to sell you something! Or is she the owner who's fed up with it, or an employee biding her time until retirement?! I think she's more likely a bitter woman who has wasted her life in a bakery because she can't do anything else! A shameless purchase for a shop on Gelderlandplein!
I tried chicken curry today, because I hadn't liked the nasi chicken satay before.
The first time, the food wasn't warm at all. After a short time, I got it back, and while it was warm, it had absolutely no flavor, and before I could finish it, it had cooled down again. The dry salad had no dressing at all.
No more hot meals here, that much is clear to me.
