Would go back to both in a heartbeat. Side note, hate to make a pitch for Apple, but I incurred no foreign transaction or currency fees using their card traveling thru Switzerland, Germany, and Amsterdam.

We ordered an omelette, coffee and an "Apple Pie" (the waiter told me it was a pastry), but I'm sure something got lost in translation. It was more like a piece of pie, but very dry. The omelette was fine but doused in lots of cheese. The saving grace, the coffee was good as we found most cafes in Europe had good coffee. We walked by this place several times during our stay, since our hotel was in Rembrandt Square, and it was usually a happening place in the evenings. Nice place to grab a drink.

We were lucky to get a table outside where we sat in the shade (which I love!). They have a 2, 3 and 4 choice menu, along with a daily changing special soup, salad and sandwich choices. Prices are quite reasonable, from 7, 8.50 to 10 euros for each set of choices. Coffee was from a Nespresso machine so I had the fresh squeezed orange juice, which I recommend in any Dutch restaurant. It is really freshly squeezed from real oranges and not the pasteurized stuff. Then I had the spring onion soup and red beet couscous salad. Both were nice, though I preferred the couscous. Besides the usual roasted sunflower seeds, they had added a small amount of rucola and hazelnuts, which upped the wow factor and crunch level. Job well done! For water they had the Earth brand, which I think is lovely, because with each purchase you are also helping someone else drink water. I like the idea of sharing what we have so much of here.

Located on Nieuwezijds Kolk, just a short walk from Amsterdam Centraal Station and the historic…read moreheart of the city, Mortimer occupies a convenient position between the canal district and Amsterdam's main transportation hub. The exterior blends naturally into the surrounding streetscape of traditional Dutch buildings to the point that we almost missed it - it's a cozy, townhouse-feel, with large front windows allowing plenty of daylight into the restaurant. Inside, the space feels cramped yet cozy, with a bright, café-style design that prioritizes natural light but preserves old furnishings. It's a two-story setup with closely-packed tables, crafting an intimate atmosphere. At around noon on a Friday, the restaurant was full, so my walk-in party of three waited around fifteen minutes before a table opened up. The menu is firmly centered around breakfast and brunch, with a selection of egg dishes, pancakes, sandwiches, pastries, specialty coffee, and lighter lunch fare. The offerings lean contemporary and international rather than traditionally Dutch, and portions are substantial without being excessive (not an American diner by any means), and the menu balances healthier options with more indulgent brunch classics. It's the sort of place where nearly every table seems to have a combination of coffee, eggs, and something sweet. One friend ordered their Dutch Caesar Sandwich (€16.75), which was a gargantuan sandwich atop hearty toasted sourdough, crisp Romaine lettuce, chicken salad, and a tangy 48-month aged Parmesan cheese. She enjoyed the variety of textures and flavors in the sandwich, and it was a great portion for the price. My other friend opted for the Eggs Benedict (€17), which was two perfectly-poached eggs served atop a golden-brown toasted fluffy bun, country ham, and a rich, decadent hollandaise sauce. This was a truly photogenic dish with some excellent flavors to back it up. Lastly, I ordered their French Toast & Stroopwafel (€15.5), which was a thick slice of brioche french toast with a whipped vanilla cream, fresh apple compote (with a lovely flavor of cinnamon), stroopwafel caramel, and a light dusting of stroopwafel crumble. Between the soft, custardy french toast, the light cream, the slightly tart apple compote, and the crunchy stroopwafel, this was a truly playful dish, and I've never had one quite like it. The overall atmosphere strikes a balance between modern brunch spot and neighborhood café, making it an appealing option for breakfast or lunch before a day of exploring the city center. Service is so friendly and helpful, and pricing falls comfortably within Amsterdam's mid-range café market, with most guests spending approximately €15-30 per person. If you're looking for a great brunch in the city before a day of exploring, I highly recommend Mortimer!
