Tip: we’ve brought a new list to life because a lot of the time we’re one of the first to find out about new spots, but not a lot of information is known: ‘Coming Soon‘. In this list you’ll find the new spots that you can go to soon. We will of course keep you updated about their opening dates.
7 x NEW BREAKFAST AND LUNCH HOTSPOTS TO EAT GOOD FOOD
Joe & The Juice:Yes, juice bars! We love it. Healthy and also very tasty. And oh yes, we’re so happy that Joe & The Juice has opened a location in Amsterdam. You don’t just go here for the fresh juices, no also for the sandwiches. WE love the sandwich with spicy tuna, yum!
Poké Perfect: Our favourite spot to order poké bowls, has a new location. YES! The second Poké Perfect can be found in Amsterdam West on the Kinkerstraat. So, good news for those of you, who just like me, don’t want to bike through the busy city center after a long workday, but are in the mood for delicious poké bowls and sushirritos from Poké Perfect.
PEEJAYS: Do you like donuts? Then you really want to try the doughnuts of PEEJAYS Doughnuts. The spot at the Vijzelgracht for a cup of coffee and a homemade donuts, even on a early morning to start your day with.
Juicebrothers x Van Leeuwen: The very first vegan ice cream bar just opened there doors at the Haarlemmerplein, in the Juicebrothers. The vegan ice cream is from Van Leeuwen, that’s founded in New York. Ice cream made with pure ingredients and no crazy ads. That’s how we like it!
Hotel Buiten: The name may suggest you something different, but Hotel Buiten Amsterdam is not a hotel. Don’t worry, it’s even better! A super nice city beach in Amsterdam West at the Sloterplas. Hotel Buiten Amsterdam is actually your place to be when the sun shines and you crave a home made apple pie
Jacks: Another new juice bar in Amsterdam, Jacks in the Pijp located at the Ferdinand Bolstraat. So lovely, our favourite area! So start you day in a healthy way and go to Jacks for a fresh juice or smoothie. But there’s more! Think of fresh sandwiches but also a good cup of coffe. YAY! We’re going there soon.
Kanaal Noord: Kanaal-Noord is more than a city beach in Zaandam where you can enjoy the sunshine with friends. There is also an outdoor and covered restaurant and terrace runned by 2 chefs educated by Jamie Olivier. Look, that sounds promised.
