With our office right in the heart of the Nine Streets, we love to use our lunch breaks to "just walk around" outside. We'll browse boutiques, grab an iced latte, or do some quick grocery shopping. During those walks, there's one thing we always notice: the ever-busy Pancakes Amsterdam On Berenstraat! Early in the morning, during lunch, and later in the day, it's always busy at Pancakes Amsterdam. So we just had to go there.

When you walk into Pancakes Amsterdam, you'll immediately understand why it's so busy. The shop is tiny, and the cozy atmosphere immediately hits you. Not only because of the super friendly staff, but also because of the "kind of" kitchen you walk into and the inviting interior. LIKE!

The interior perfectly matches the dishes they serve. Both offer traditional Dutch cuisine with a modern twist. Besides the traditional pancakes, you can also find pancakes with some truly surprising combinations. I had the Veggie with eggplant, spinach, onion, bell pepper, and pesto. Delicious! And quite healthy too. All pancakes are gluten-free and made with fair-trade, organic, and fresh ingredients whenever possible. And the selection is truly HUGE. You can choose pancakes from all over the world—super cool!

The interior design incorporates classic Delftware, but with a fresh twist instead of the old-fashioned way. We recommend breakfast or lunch at Pancakes Amsterdam to everyone, because you're guaranteed to leave with a smile!
And what's even better: did you know they have two locations? Location number 1 is at Berenstraat 38, and location number 2 is at Prins Hendrikkade, opposite Central Station (which is a bit bigger!). Don't be put off by the line, though; they move incredibly fast here!
