New coffee shops, bakeries & sandwich shops in Amsterdam City Centre

Krush

Open from October 3rd: Krush, where they sell crumbles and coffee. On social media, for example, we already see a sweet snack consisting of warm apple with cinnamon, crumble, and vanilla custard. 

Jacob van Lennepstraat 60, Amsterdam – @krush.amsterdam

Fanke

A little bit of Greece in Amsterdam, at this sister place of coffeeshop Alpha. They have a real freddo cappuccino (and any other coffee you could wish for), and they serve snacks and lunch: from tasty filo pastry treats to stuffed peppers. 

Rozengracht 91, Amsterdam – @fankeamsterdam

kaf 

Kaf started as a sourdough bakery and coffee roastery for the hospitality industry, but now wants to become available to private customers as well. That is why they are opening a shop on the Prinsengracht this September. 

Prinsengracht 158H, Amsterdam – @kaf_amsterdam

O mai cafe

Restaurant O Mai has a sister: O Mai Café on Kinkerstraat, where you can get delicious bánh mì, Vietnamese coffee, and matcha.

Kinkerstraat 228, Amsterdam – @omaicafe

Cafe de Schelp

North has gained a nice new coffee and sandwich shop: Café de Schelp in A Lab. From Monday to Friday, they serve a few rotating lunch dishes – gazpacho, for example, or roasted pointed cabbage – and baguettes with cheese, carrot, or roasted kohlrabi, among other toppings (exciting!). 

Overhoeksplein 2, Amsterdam – @cafedeschelp

Out Of Office Coffee

We definitely want to give a shout-out to this: at “Asian Indonesian Surinamese fusion cafe” Out of Office Coffee, they have all kinds of sweet treats, sandwiches, and especially very beautiful drinks. Owner Steve was frustrated by the corporate meetings he was always sitting in, so he decided to do something with his hands: this cafe. 

Haarlemmerweg 313, Amsterdam – @ooocoffee.amsterdam

New location Broodje Popov

Broodje Popov is known for their location on Van Woustraat, where they already sold their generously filled sandwiches, but has now also opened a location on Spui. From Korean fried chicken to chopped cheese, chicken or tonkatsu, or a club sandwich: Popov is the place. 

Spui 8, Amsterdam – @broodje.popov

Mano Bakery

Italian sourdough and other tasty treats? Yes, please! Mano has undergone a major renovation, and now you can go there for focaccia and breads, for example, but also for (filled) croissants and other beautiful puff pastry creations.
Kinkerstraat 51H, Amsterdam – @mano__bakery

Alpha Deli

Specialty coffee and Greek pastries: that is what they do at Alpha Deli. It is relaxed and warm there (thanks to the yellow walls!) and you can eat, among other things, Greek 'pies' with spinach, feta, leek and grilled chicken, or sourdough sandwiches with, for example, smoked cheese, salami and roasted bell pepper spread. And fun fact: when Alison Roman was on a trip to Amsterdam, she stopped by here too.
Amstel 47, Amsterdam – @alphadeli_ams

Thai Mango Moon

Nice: here you can drink authentic Thai drinks and mango desserts, such as mango sticky rice, mango cakes, or Nam Khaeng Sai.
Weteringschans 187DH, Amsterdam – mangomoon.nl

Lyublu

Lyublu is located around the corner from the Stopera, and that is no coincidence: owner Artur used to dance in the National Ballet. They have a beautiful, sleek interior, good coffee, and an ever-changing photo exhibition; a reason to come back.
Waterlooplein 8F, Amsterdam – @lyublu.amsterdam

Laundry Boy

Laundry Boy isn't just a coffee shop: you can also get your laundry done there (hence the name). You drop off your laundry and pick it up (or have it delivered), and while you're at it, you can grab a to-go coffee.
Hazenstraat 65, Amsterdam – laundryboy.nl

Bagel Boy

A new location for Bagel Boy! The same concept – bagels and good spreads – but this time on the Spui.
Spui 26, Amsterdam – bagelboyshop.com

Cheeky

Cheecky doesn't want to be just a coffee shop: they also have natural wine, and sometimes they organize a party or dinner.
Fannius Scholtenstraat 26H, Amsterdam – @cheeky_ams

Two Story

Coffee shop, gallery, and design store in one beautiful canal house. You might stop by for the coffee, but leave with a wealth of inspiration.
Singel 395, Amsterdam – twostory.nl

hagen

There was already a Hagen at Frankendael Park, but now you can also find the London Espresso Bar with Danish pastries in the city centre.
Kleine-Gartmanplantsoen 28, Amsterdam – thehagenproject.com

Yusu at Contra

Yusu has become almost a coffee classic by now, and they now also have a location in Contra, which is a restaurant and live jazz café in the evenings. During the day, you can now enjoy Yusu's delicious treats and drinks there, and it is a great place to study or work.
Old Side Achterburgwal 235, Amsterdam – yusu.coffee

Hoi Tin Cafe

Classic Hoi Tin now also has a coffee shop, founded by the younger generation. Think: good iced lattes and matchas, tasty sweet snacks, and fun sandos and sandwiches. And, of course, the famous buns from across the street, where Hoi Tin is located.
Zeedijk 119, Amsterdam – @hoitincafe

Machi Machi Amsterdam

And also around the corner, on Warmoesstraat, a new place for tasty drinks opened: bubble tea spot Machi Machi, which already has a location in Rotterdam.
Warmoesstraat 10H, Amsterdam – @machimachi__nl

Akhi 'n Friends

Abdul Arrindell, also known as Akhi, previously made coffee at Rum Baba, Locals, and Monk. Now he has his own coffee spot, which feels like a living room.
Ruysdaelstraat 15H, Amsterdam – akhinfriends.amsterdam

Janine Bakery

Janine is a full-blown restaurant, but also a bakery: it is located in front of the restaurant. You can get coffee, sweets, and generously filled focaccia there.

Meili Bakery

Meili Bakery is an Asia-inspired bakery where they also serve specialty coffee. And for trendwatchers: here they have a dirty coffee, the hot shot of espresso with cold milk foam that Emma de Thouars put on the Dutch map when she was making videos from China.

Evnia Cafe

Coffee, matcha, and Mediterranean-inspired treats, such as a festa and filo pastry pie or strapatsada (scrambled eggs with tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, and oregano).
Herenstraat 28d, Amsterdam – @evniacafe

Leauf

Leauf now has two locations where you can buy the generously filled baguettes (with, for example, Caesar salad, ribeye, chicken, burrata and pistachio pesto, or tuna and melted cheese).
Second Goudsbloemdwarsstraat 26, Amsterdam – leauf.com

zerozero

Zerozero is expanding rapidly: there is now also a location on the Elandsgracht (and at Schiphol!). We certainly understand why, because those sandwiches are sometimes exactly what you want for a substantial lunch.
Elandsgracht 148, Amsterdam – zero-zero.store

Pinuku

Pinuku wants to bring us more flavor, color, and fun. They do this in the form of mochis, which are inspired by their Moluccan and Filipino roots.

This little corner building on Haarlemmerplein always looks cozy – and beautiful too, by the way, because it is very sleekly furnished.

Salvo Basement

Salvo Basement on the Keizersgracht is the newest sibling of the well-known Salvo in Amsterdam West. Salvo Basement is open from Wednesday to Sunday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and occasionally a DJ spins vinyl records. This not only provides great beats but also creates a cozy atmosphere. As a result, the Basement location is a place where you'll want to hang out, standing or at the bar.

Haku Coffee

Haku on Rozengracht is an oasis of calm on a street that never seems to calm down. They serve excellent matcha, delicious coffee, and a small selection of fresh (iced) tea and pastries. A wonderful break in the heart of the city.

The Little Canelés

Bordeaux's most delicious pastry is now freshly and artisanally made for you in the Jordaan district. At Les Petits Canelés, you'll find what might be the tastiest pastry you've ever tasted. We speak from experience and the rave reviews the place has already garnered in a short time. The coffee is just as good. 
First Lindendwarsstraat 11H, Amsterdam – lespetitscaneles.com

Davies

There is a sandwich shop on almost every street in Amsterdam. However, Sandwichbar Davies in the Jordaan is certainly worth a visit. David Baxter, the former chef at La Rive, finishes the sandwiches to perfection. There are only four sandwiches on the menu, but every sandwich is a feast for your taste buds. The ingredients are perfectly matched and form a delicious whole. At first glance, Davies might seem like a standard sandwich shop, but it surprises its visitors time and again with unique creations!
Second Leliedwarsstraat 13, Amsterdam – daviesamsterdam.com

Saint Jean Deli

When the now mega-popular SAINT-JEAN was founded, its founders aimed to create the tastiest vegan croissants in Amsterdam. They succeeded: their cruffin became an instant hit. When the owners saw the opportunity to occupy the building directly across from their first location, they didn't hesitate. And so, SAINT-JEAN Deli was born. Enjoy natural wines, savory sandwiches, and their famous sweet treats, perhaps with a good cup of coffee.

Monty's Amsterdam

Did someone just say sourdough and toasted sandwiches? It turns out it's a match made in heaven, and they've perfected the art of sourdough toasted sandwiches at the recently opened Monty's Toasties Amsterdam. Right in the heart of the Jordaan.

Chun Café

It's probably a good thing there's always a long line at Chun in the Nine Streets. Otherwise, I'd be having breakfast here every day with their delicious brioche toast! If you ask me, these are quite possibly the best sandwiches you can get in Amsterdam right now. So my advice: get there before 10.00:XNUMX AM on weekends or during the week (when it's a bit less busy). It's worth the wait. Favorites on the menu are definitely the bulgogi and the shrimp toast. Order a homemade lemonade with it. They also have excellent coffee.
Berenstraat 8, Amsterdam, Nine Streets – chun-amsterdam.com

Chun 2

Good news for anyone who loves good matcha and juicy sandwiches, but doesn't fancy a TikTok queue. Chun recently opened a second location on Spuistraat, in the heart of the city center. As part of their "never change a winning team" philosophy, you'll find more matcha, the same beautiful interior, and an equally excellent menu. Let's hope the queues stay shorter.
Spuistraat 122, Amsterdam – chun-amsterdam.com

Cheesecake Project

A shop dedicated to cheesecake. Some won't understand, while others will immediately call it heaven on earth. The latter is also true for the founder of Cheesecake Project Amsterdam, who ran a foodie Instagram account alongside his job in sports betting. He'd always been fascinated by food and couldn't wait to start his own business. With Cheesecake Project, that dream became a reality, right in the heart of the Jordaan.

Lot 61 Amsterdam Central Station

LOT61 Amsterdam Central Station is a reality. And after years of poor coffee at Amsterdam Central Station, that's a very welcome development. Coffee connoisseurs in Amsterdam know there are a few places that never disappoint. Toki, Rumbaba, Skina, and of course, LOT61 are among them. The fact that LOT61 (located on Kinkerstraat for years now) has opened a brand-new location, near Amsterdam Central Station, is more than good news for all coffee snobs and commuters.

Orchid House

At the very back of the Orchid House restaurant, there is a coffee bar where you can work comfortably, with a view of the greenery of Oosterpark.
Linnaeusstraat 2C, Amsterdam – orchid-house.nl

Olaf Brood

A delicious sourdough bakery—you don't have to be limited to the Pijp or Oud-West district anymore. Olaf Brood opened earlier this year in Oost (Dappermarkt neighborhood), and you simply must go. Everything here is excellent: from the sourdough bread to the filled focaccias, custard rolls, and croissants.

The Cottage Shop & Deli

Your favorite spot in Amsterdam East for brunch, lunch, and snacks now also has a shop and a deli where you can find their classics to go. Think freshly baked scones, sandwiches, and cakes. We couldn't be happier thanks to this lovely new hotspot on Linaeusstraat. The deli is just a few doors away from The Cottage.

Bakery MAS Atelier 

MAS Atelier is a lovely bakery located where Rum Baba used to be, in Amsterdam East. So, on the corner of Pretoriusstraat, you can now find this fine sourdough bakery, which makes the best sourdough in the neighborhood from Wednesday through Saturday. And you can also get tasty croissants there.
Pretoriusstraat 33, Amsterdam – bakkerijmas.nl

Bakery mAS

Bakery MAS has coffee and sourdough (and a lovely terrace), and you can go there for breakfast, lunch, and drinks, as they also have wine. My personal favorite is the cheese baguette (well, simple but *good*).

Louf the Mill

A really lovely location from Bakery Louf, by the guys behind Binnenvisser: this spot by an old mill. It feels like you're on a short holiday in the countryside, right in the middle of the city.
Green Barn, Gillis van Ledenberchstraat 74, Amsterdam – bakkerijlouf.nl/

Hejo

Indonesian specialty coffee: of course you can 'just' get a flat white or cold brew, but there is also sweetened cold jasmine tea, a coconut-orange-lime 'cooler', and a latte with arenga palm sugar.

At &Japnism, they have very nice drinks (a sakura latte, yuzu ginger soda) and organize exciting events: a dinner with matcha and fermented seasonal products, for example.

Gorgo Lunchroom

A hidden gem with funky grilled cheese sandwiches on the menu, for example with tahini and honey. Tasty, but be warned: very filling! They also have nice drinks, with sumac for instance.

The Coffee

You might have seen The Coffee somewhere else in the world before (they have *many* shops, from Guatemala to Belgium and from Armenia to the Emirates and Malaysia), and now they are in Amsterdam too. A strikingly small shop where everything looks perfect.
First Constantijn Huygensstraat 33, Amsterdam – @thecoffee.netherlands

Froda's

At Froda's, the shop run by two brothers, you can get whole focaccia loaves (with toppings like miso, sesame and honey, or potatoes, or just plain) and focaccia sandwiches. And while you're at it, you can order a tiramisu on the side.

Baarsjesweg 211, Amsterdam – @bosamsterdam

Passion fruit

A cozy place where you can escape the hustle and bustle of the city: that was what Maracuyá Amsterdam (West) are, according to the owners. We dare say they passed with flying colors, because if anywhere is an oasis of peace and relaxation, it's here.

The Genius

The Genius brings a taste of Brabant to Amsterdam, and it's just as charming as it sounds. They proudly present the capital's most authentic sausage roll, complete with a perfectly seasoned sausage filling and a classic golden-brown, crispy dough. The name of the shop reflects the genius of this delicacy, which the owners adore. If you're looking for something new and uniquely Amsterdam, you've come to the right place. So, head to Kinkerstraat.

Mundi

A relaxing morning with the newspaper, a lunch break with a fresh matcha, or enjoying homemade banana muffins—it's all possible at Mundi. It's the place where Amsterdam-West comes together to enjoy a moment of peace, work flexibly, or pick up a gift from their extensive selection of ceramics and delicious wines. Mundi has it all; it's such a wonderful place that, once you've discovered it, you'll fall in love.

Bakery Louf

There's really only one place you'll want to have breakfast in Amsterdam West. That is, if you love really good bread. Bakery Louf is a lovely spot with a wonderful atmosphere. Whether you want to have breakfast alone with a magazine or newspaper, or you're meeting up with a friend. In good weather, the terrace is also a great place to people-watch on the always lively Bilderdijkstraat. And did I mention they open at 8.00:XNUMX AM? Bakery Louf is in the same corner building as Café Binnenvisser, where you can join us from early evening.

Uncommon 2

Great news for coffee lovers: Uncommon has a second location! The address isn't known yet (hopefully more information will follow soon – we're excited), but the first images of the renovation are already here. Together with Instil Collective, an interior design firm, the owners of Uncommon have been working hard on the new location, which looks just as tasteful and minimalist as the first one.

Language Coffee

Light green tiles, pink to-go cups, lots of windows, sleek tiles, and a cast floor: the interior of Taal Coffee & More, the relatively new, stylish coffee shop on JJ Cremerplein in Amsterdam-West, is spot-on. The fact that they also serve excellent coffee and other unique drinks is just a bonus.

At Skina, you'll immediately feel at ease; the space is bright thanks to the many windows. The whole concept is spot on: from the interior and ambiance to the extensive coffee menu. Add to that the fact that you'll immediately notice the staff's genuine passion for coffee.

Eurosoft Cafe

Sam's Coffee North

Sam's Coffee North Amsterdam is the second location for Sam's Koffie, which already has a location on Welnastraat in Oud-West. Opening a coffee shop in Noord is a different story than in Oud-West, the owners discovered. Sam's in Noord aims to be as inclusive as possible; no exorbitant prices or snobby attitudes, just good coffee and snacks at fair prices. A small cappuccino, for example, starts at €3,30, and a toasted sandwich for €6,50. That's very reasonable by Amsterdam standards.

Layers Bakery

Perhaps the capital's most aesthetically pleasing addition: Layers Bakery in De Pijp. Besides a fantastic interior, they serve delicious, original sandwiches. From the pastrami bun to the fried chicken croissant burger – we wouldn't say no to either, and we haven't tasted anything like it anywhere else.

Crema Amsterdam

On Albert Cuypstraat, you'll find the best soft serve ice cream in Amsterdam at Crema. They're also quite experimental here, like how about soft serve with olive oil? Just the combination you didn't know you needed. Add to that the beautiful interior, and you'll definitely want to linger. Even non-ice cream lovers will enjoy the delicious coffee and pastries.

In addition to a special shop that is popular with young and old, the owner wanted to give something back to the neighborhood; a place to create where people can come together, enjoy a quiet moment in the midst of the busy Amsterdam Pipe Or settle in for a (quick) lunch. Owner Daan de Greef wants to foster a sense of community not only by simply offering a great hangout, but also by offering membership cards. With these, you can earn points for free coffee, for example. Read more about Cafe Baskèts here.

Fonda Café Amsterdam

Fonda Café Amsterdam is the newest hotspot at the Stedelijk Museum. This is remarkable, because you often don't have to have incredibly high expectations of a museum café. Good coffee is often more a matter of chance or a pleasant coincidence. That's not the case at Fonda, where the coffee, tea, and matcha are at their best. The bar area is located in the entrance hall on the ground floor and is open to everyone, whether you're visiting the museum or not. Fonda Café is on the first floor, near the building's iconic staircase. To visit the café, you do need a museum ticket, or of course, a Museum Card. The café has the character of a classic luncheonette, including large shared tables and a self-service counter.

ZeroZero Zuidas

All of Amsterdam is addicted to ZeroZero's sandwiches. That's why a third (!) location was inevitable. And after the Pijp and the heart of the city center, the founders couldn't think of a better location than the Zuidas. Good news for everyone who works there.

Mister Nata

Pastel de nata—a custard tart from the Lisbon area—is a famous snack in Portugal and beyond, and the Dutch are now hooked too. Mister NATA makes arguably the tastiest pastel de nata in Amsterdam—how could it be otherwise with a name like that?! On Van Woustraat in Amsterdam-Zuid and on Haarlemmerdijk in Amsterdam-Centrum, the staff prepares these delicacies fresh every day, ensuring they're at their crispiest.

Mokafe

On the edge of the Rivierenbuurt neighborhood (Amsterdam South), you'll find a great coffee shop: Mokafe. In the building formerly occupied by Lunchroom Bruist, you can now enjoy breakfast, lunch, and specialty coffee, as well as fresh sourdough bread and homemade pastries. It's a cozy spot that's also a great place for a quick weekend breakfast with the kids.

Gerard's sandwich

One of the best sandwiches in De Pijp? In our opinion, it's Broodje Gerard Amsterdam. An all-day spot on Gerard Doustraat (in the heart of De Pijp), where you can get your morning coffee, read and buy magazines, and of course, enjoy a classic "Broodje Gerard."
