It's the most classic Dutch sandwich bar I have found in town, and almost everything is homemade. I think this is my favorite classic Dutch "fast food" restaurant in Amsterdam, mainly because my mother grew up in Holland and she always used to talk about eating steak tartare broodje with hard boiled egg, onion and mayonnaise in the 1950s. Their homemade steak tartare broodje is outstanding. The homemade Dutch pea soup is only available during cold months and it's also fabulous. In summer they have a mushroom soup, but I haven't tried it yet. If you wanna be really Dutch, order a glass of buttermilk with your broodjie. They also have regular milk and lots of soft drinks. It's just classic and delcious traditional Dutch food; really good and so fresh and you can watch it being made. Everyone that works here is also so nice. Try the kipsaté croquette which tastes like a Thai saté stick. Don't forget the yellow mustard. The server may tell you it makes it taste even better. So fun to sit at the bar counter inside, and they do have a few tables outside for sunny days. I love the decor, the funny expressions about croquettes on the tiles, and the super 1950s black-and-white photos from the restaurant on the walls. This is such a wonderful place and every time I come to Amsterdam I make a pilgrimage here. It's also on a really nice and slightly diagonal street, right in the city center, that still has its old charm. They have the full menu and also a small "classics" menu; one thing I've never tried, but would like to next time, is the curry chicken salad.

And being a 2-minute walk from the Sir Albert Hotel means you don't have to pay ridiculous hotel prices for late night food after you've had drinks at Izakaya. Tip 1: If you ask for the fries to go they will put the salt separate, this apparently keeps the fries crispy for longer. FRY SCIENCE! Tip 2: The "small" fries is big enough for a man-sized craving. Anything larger is probably enough for 2 people. Or 1 fatty.

Picture it - a glorious wall of vending machines containing all things bad for you. Cheeseburgers, hamburgers, potato croquette looking things, fried veggie patties, and other miscellaneous artery-clogging deliciousness - all at your fingertips for just a bit of pocket change. A perfect spot to hit up after a night out, or in our case, a night of roaming around Amsterdam until our legs were jello. Everything looks delicious, and everything is placed into the vending machine freshly made. You'll even get a glimpse of the hand placing in the freshest items which I would assume makes the decision on what to get much easier. Some Febo locations are open 24/7 which is terrible and amazing at the same time.

Finding authentic, high-quality food at these prices anywhere in central Amsterdam is almost unheard of. Beyond the panini, their calzones, cannoli, and tiramisu are just as good.

You can also choose the meat; my husband went for the 260g Dutch style and I went for the 200g black Angus burger. We both had sauted mushrooms and blue cheese with them - it also comes with lettuce, tomato and gherkins so you need to tell them you do not want that if you do not. We also got one portion of fries which was huge with Oorlog (war sauce). This is a must try if you've not had it and is satay sauce with mayonnaise and raw onion. We love it. The only thing was the sauce to fry ratio was slightly off and we ran out of sauce before fries but we were so stuffed from the great burgers it didn't matter. Only thing to note is there is a bit of a loud extractor that makes noise every few minutes that reminds me of eating in a railway arch cafe in London but not as loud. Will definitely go back for the burgers! Yum! :)
