What a fun little Amsterdam find! First things first: reservations are HIGHLY recommended. Seating…read moreis only on the hour, starting at noon, and this place is tiny. We're talking just four tables, with only two that can seat a party of four. They'll consider walk-ins at opening if there's room, but I wouldn't chance it. Then there's the setting. Funky, quirky, cozy, and packed with wonderfully random decorations. Like teapots and cups on the ceiling. And yes, you really do go upstairs...very steep stairs! Definitely something to know if mobility is an issue. But let's talk PANCAKES! We ordered four for our table of four--two savory and two sweet--which was WAY too much food, but OMG, they were incredible. Huge, thin, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The tiny kitchen can only cook two pancakes at a time, which somehow just adds to the charm. Prices were surprisingly reasonable, too. Just don't dally--you have your table for an hour, and then it's time for the next lucky group to climb those stairs. Would I go back? HECK YA! We barely scratched the surface of the menu, and there are plenty more pancakes calling my name. Friendly staf

IMPORTANT: CASH ONLY or debit. I was so excited to try this…read moreplace and we made our way there winding through the streets of Amsterdam. When we arrived and hiked upstairs, yes it's a hike straight up steep stairs, only to see the sign "fully booked" womp womp. HOWEVER, we asked if there was a waiting list because we didn't realize reservations are basically necessary. WE GOT LUCKY as a table was available because someone didn't show for their reservations!! We ordered the special of the day, blueberry & cream, and a bacon, cheese and apple pancake. Quickly cooked up and served and boy were they both delicious! I also didn't know it was a cash only establishment or debit card. Whom I presume was the owner was so sweet and again luckily our US credit card could be processed as debit. Saved me from having to do dish duty! Definitely a must do in Amsterdam but make a reservation and carry cash! Also to note, they only have 4 tables and if you're more than 5 minutes late for your reservation they may have given away your table!

Cafeteria style restaurant with pancakes (more like large crepes) with different toppings made…read morefresh to order. With the Zaanse Schans card, you get a 10% discount there. We ordered a #3 with chocolate and whipped cream and #9 with banana, chocolate, and whipped cream. Our cashier was nice and gave us a voucher for a free coffee or tea afterwards. It took about 25 minutes to have our pager buzz during the lunchtime crunch. I had a lemon ice tea and my husband enjoyed his tropical IPA Hoop Kaper. They were thinner and less sweet than American pancakes. Satisfying though not super flavorful, added a little syrup from the table. Next time I would try a savory option because the ones at the table next to us looked good! Lots of table discs inside and outside as this is the restaurant on site (many other takeaway places with fries or ice cream or other snacks but not a meal).

Restaurant De Kraai is a convenient, cafeteria-style spot located right in the heart of the Zaanse…read moreSchans tourist area. They specialize in both sweet and savory Dutch pancakes, which are served in the traditional style--very flat and spread out across the plate. The process is straightforward: you order and pay at the register, then head to the counter to pick up your food once it is ready. During my visit, I tried the pancake with apricot jam and whipped cream (€12.95). It was a decent meal--certainly not bad, but also nothing particularly special. While the prices are a bit high for what you get, that is somewhat expected given its prime location in a major tourist hub. In addition to pancakes, they offer a variety of cakes, muffins, and a full selection of beverages to choose from. The restaurant is quite spacious, offering plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating depending on the weather. A nice perk for guests is that the restrooms are free for customers to use, which can be hard to come by here. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming, making it a pleasant and easy place to take a break after a day of exploring the windmills.
