Mook Pancakes: MOOK Pancakes is a hotspot where you can have pancakes for breakfast, lunch and dinner! At MOOK they serve organic pancakes with surprising combinations. Not the typical Dutch pancakes with syrup and bacon. But a pancake with avocado for example. Or with bacon, cheese and onion. YUM!

the breakfast club
The Breakfast Club: The Breakfast Club is a spot in Amsterdam West where you can have breakfast all day. Including delicious buckwheat pancakes or buttermilk pancakes and fresh fruit. In summer, try to score a spot on the sunny terrace as quickly as possible and at weekends come as early as possible because here it is always busy.
Pancakes Amsterdam: Pancakes Amsterdam has multiple locaties in the city. At the nine street, close to the central station and one located at the Westermarkt. It’ll be hard to decided which pancakes to order since there are so many on the menu! American pancakes but dutch pancakes as well. Yumm!
Staring at Jacob: Delicious fluffy pancakes with syrup are here to order at Staring at Jacob! And here you can also order some additional topping such as nuts, seasonal fruits and chocolates. Also nice: the “all around” dish with soft scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, home fries, fluffy pancakes and syrup. Make sure you come with an empty stomach!
metropolitain
Metropolitain: Crepes are also a kind of pancakes, right? :-) At Metropolitain they serve crepes with chocolate (nutella and caramel), forest fruits (berries and mascarpone), cheese, bacon and possibly a fried egg or salmon. Yummy!
Bakers & Roasters: Bakers & Roasters is known for their egg dishes. But they also serve pancakes; great for weekends! Order the B&R Special with poached eggs, a fried egg or scrambled eggs, bacon and pancakes with organic Canadian syrup. Here too, come with an empty stomach!
Benji’s: Red velvet pancakes? Yes! They have them at Benji’s. Be there on time because you have to order them before 12. But in case you’re too late, they have plenty of other delicious things on the menu!
Lavinia
Lavinia: One of our favourite lunch places in the center of Amsterdam is Lavinia. Because they serve delicious and healthy dishes here! What I just didn’t know is that they also serve gluten-free banana pancakes with fresh fruit and maple syrup!

Corner Bakery: Corner Bakery is a very popular hotspot. The food looks ways to good but definitely Instagram worthy as well. They have sandwiches but also pancakes! You have to try them! They’re served with fresh food. And oh, don’t forget to order the monster milkshake!
Teds: To all day brunch spot Teds in West you go for banana pancakes with sliced banana and… here it comes: Nutella drizzelz! You should really try them! Of course there are many other brunch dishes on the menu, but I would highly recommend the pancakes ;-).
