The coffee here is great, truly one of the best we've had in North Amsterdam. The staff is very hospitable and accommodating, which made the experience even better.
This place is truly awful. Way too hot inside, they're taking orders wrong, and the floor and ceiling look tacky. I get the feeling the people or the organization that built this place have no inclination for this kind of cafe. Perhaps a real estate developer decided it needed a coffee shop and thought it would be fun and trendy to also turn it into a bookstore and cafe? The result is that it's just not quite right. A weak Nespresso served by people who clearly have no experience in the hospitality industry; a few dozen books—a few hundred at most—so no book lover will be drawn to that. The result is that it's mostly office workers picking up takeout, and you're sitting among them when you order a cup of coffee.
Daan is an amazing waiter for our Cocktail Workshop - he is very professional an we had the best time at the Bachelorette Party of our best friend - BEST TIME EVER 🫶🏼
Nice place. Both fondues were pretty flavorful. They don't look like much, but they're a good individual portion. The bread was quite lacking, but the accompaniments were pretty good. The service was quick and friendly. We spent 80 euros for two people.
The pancakes were wonderfully fluffy, and you could tell they were freshly made. The toppings were also fantastic. I think there's something for everyone, whether you prefer sweet or savory. The staff was very friendly and explained again what was included with the pancakes. I would definitely recommend Madame Pancake 😊
Amsterdam has so much amazing international food, that we never considered Dutch d
Food. Thank god on our last meal we tried this place. It was great, probably the best escargots we have ever had, great ribs and venison. Skip the mussels. Service was great and atmosphere too.
We visited this place as four girls during our Amsterdam trip to try their famous apple pie. The café was very crowded, but the staff member who greeted us immediately showed us an empty table upstairs. Since one of my friends didn’t want to try anything, the three of us ordered two apple pies to share so we could also taste other desserts. We weren’t planning to stay long anyway, as the place is quite small.
In the middle of the crowd, the man who seemed to be the owner suddenly came up to us and shouted, “So you’re four people eating only two pies?” At first we thought he was being sarcastic, but it was simply rude. While we were still trying to understand if he was joking, the woman who had seated us came over with the pos machine, clearly wanting us to pay and leave. They basically didn’t like our order and asked us to pay right away.
I told her that if they had mentioned at the beginning that we needed to order more due to the crowd, we would have happily done so. We paid quickly and left, and as we were walking out, we even heard them say “internationals ” behind us. Although the apple pie was delicious, their attitude completely ruined the experience. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.
