Juice cleanses might be all over the place (they always pop up in January and towards the summer), but if you want to enjoy genuinely healthy and precisely balanced eating, you should visit Wild & The Moon Amsterdam, which will soon open a new location on the Elandsgracht.
Plenty of reasons to visit the new Wild & The Moon…
The story behind Wild & The Moon Amsterdam starts in… Dubai! Founder Emmanuelle Sawko lived there for some time and started the renowned Comptoir 102. It left her wanting more – literally – but now not in the form of a concept store, but as a healthy food destination. The idea of Wild & The Moon was born in Paris, where the founder now lives. Her mother was the biggest source of inspiration; she taught Emmanuelle about healthy eating and passed on her love and passion for cooking and baking to her daughter.

Menu Wild & The Moon
Wild & The Moon has been a household name in Paris for years. A Dutch branch was inevitable due to the increasing demand for healthy food in our country. Amsterdam now has three (!) locations and a fourth is in the making on the Elandsgracht, where Flo’s Bagels used to be.
Once inside, you might feel overwhelmed by the vast selection this place offers. One item is even healthier than the next. You should try their banana bread with cashew sauce for a tasty treat. A flavour sensation that surpasses any other banana bread (although the one from Juice Brothers is also a hit). If you prefer juice and are stressed, the ‘Hollyweed’ with CBD extract is successful. Choose the ‘Matcha Milk’ or the ‘Bulletproof Coffee’ for a little energy boost – the latter will keep you going for hours.
Besides unique smoothies, juices, and açaí bowls, Wild & The Moon also has classic sandwiches (even a cheese sandwich!) and hot dishes, such as a vegan burger and an Asian bowl with jackfruit. For those who still want to join the juice cleanse craze, there are three types of cleanses ranging from one to five days. A piece of banana bread as a reward after your cleanse is definitely in order and tastes even better.
Wild & The Moon Amsterdam is located at Van Woustraat 138, Arnold Schönberglaan 9, Elandsgracht 89, and Kinkerstraat 334.
