Mentioning Spuistraat is unlikely to set your heart racing. But Restaurant Cocotte in Amsterdam might just be the reason you really want to go there. Trust me! Because don't we all get excited about anything related to French cuisine? Well, I certainly do. And the French cuisine served at Restaurant Cocotte Amsterdam comes from the Brittany region. The restaurant serves authentic, regional dishes. Think savory galettes, sweet crêpes, a full breakfast, café gourmand, tarte tartin, and more. Oh my, oh my. And with my office perilously close to all these delicacies, I can see a new hotspot for my breakfast meetings.

The interior of Restaurant Cocotte in Amsterdam It's best described as cozy. For once, no industrial, sleek decor, but something that most evokes a country kitchen where you sit at wooden tables. A blue and white Breton stripe on the ceiling reminds me of the French coast. The beautiful ceramics with a blue border also give me a retro French feel and are never out of style. What I like about Cocotte is that it's French, but different from the French restaurants that have opened recently. Not a brasserie like you'd find in Paris, but the coziness of the French coast. Love it!


While a beautiful interior is nice, it's ultimately about the food itself. And that's perfectly fine. At Restaurant Cocotte Amsterdam, they only use artisanal ingredients. For example, the flour they use is 100% organic and sourced from a small mill in France. Furthermore, the crepes are completely gluten-free, so everyone can enjoy them. Let Chef Charlotte surprise you and put Cocotte on your list as a great lunch hotspot in the heart of the city!
Bon appétit!
