    Good morning!
    Monte Y.

    Sure, sure, I know what you're thinking... this is just another chain coffee joint, and you'd be partially correct. However, illy is simply fantastic coffee! This spot is located directly across from Amsterdam Centraal, and is one of my go-to spots whenever I'm in town. The staff is friendly, and the space is comfortable and inviting. I've sat for hours reading, held biz meetings, and even just enjoyed a coffee or 12. This particular morning I arrived 40 minutes before they opened (which is 8a, if you'd like to make a note), so I got to enjoy a beautiful Netherlands sunrise before my caffe crema and croissant.

    Why go to Starbucks when you have illy? This branch in Amsterdam floored me. Everything about the place was aesthetically pleasing. The decor was on point and the staff all greeted me well. I didn't feel like a traveler. They made me feel like a local. The coffee itself is good. It's the perfect combination of a well pulled shot and milk to cream ratio. Would I go back whenever I'm Amsterdam? Of course!

    Great cappuccino and fast service! Great location off the main road with bar seating next to large window. Inviting atmosphere and nice staff.

    I not only loved the location and the coffee but the decor was really cool. Take me back to illy and give me all the espresso you have.

    Good cafe in center of Amsterdam, in front of Amsterdam central station. Interesting cozy interior especially installation with coffee cups. Illys cafes is a good choice in opposite of Starbucks in Europe. They also have their big choice of merchandise: cups, brand coffee.. I've tried their ristretto and it was a good quality. So if you like European coffee style this coffee bar is what you are looking for.

    Great place to stop by and have a nice tasty coffee! Very modern decoration with a center chandelier full of espresso coffee cups... they have some sandwiches too.m but I did not try them. Café Crema is so good and tasty. Crowded because of the location. Private WC access by code only.

    Lovely flowers on the tables here.

    just how good can a cookie be? and they only sell one type…read moreof cookie? and there's always a queue out through the door? having not been back to amsterdam for years, i decided to brave a trip there to find out since it came highly recommended by folks in sg and was also confirmed to be good by my dutch yelper(ex) friend, kim! easily accessible location, guided there by friendly local, only threatening skies and a feeble rain dampened the mood slightly on our walk there. nonetheless, spotting a not so long queue strengthened our spirit and lengthened our strides. the queue was also pretty quick with many friendly counter staff waiting to greet and meet you! in any case, the only real decision you need to make is how many piece(s) you would like to have! and then how you want it packed? i merely chose the max number that the pretty tin box can fit, easy, peasy. easy reheating instruction was also included. then just pay and go or have one cookie on the spot? it will definitely hit the spot! even though the cookies have travelled with me half the world for more than half a day, a quick pop in the oven brought it back to glory. even crispier on the outside and yet still as moist and baby soft within! one bite and you will be convinced to traverse back there again! although i still cannot pronounce your name, what i can is remember your game!

    Amazing flavor cookie shop. It has an amazing chocolatey outside with a melting gooey white…read morechocolate inside. Every bite is delicious and unforgettable. I wish I bought some to bring back to NYC. Will definitely try to make dupes of these delicious gooey soft cookies. Service is fast, grab and go. They fill your order while you're paying. Inside is very factory like. Line to order and grab and go. But I loved watching them making the cookies through the windows. Very cute experience and cookies were delicious.

    Winkel 43 is a legendary stop right on the corner of Westerstraat and Noordermarkt in the Jordaan,…read moreperfectly situated along the Prinsengracht canals and just a short walk from the Anne Frank House. While it functions as a cozy, traditional Dutch brown café, virtually everyone comes here for one main reason: the famous Dutch apple pie (*appeltaart*). It completely lives up to the reputation. Served warm with a massive dollop of fresh whipped cream, it's thick, perfectly spiced, and has an almost cake-like crust that sets it apart. Pairing a slice with a fresh mint tea is pretty much mandatory. Because of its status and location, it's almost always buzzing with people--especially on market days--but the staff manages the perpetual queue remarkably fast. Snagging a table on the outdoor terrace for some people-watching along the canal is hard to beat. Whether you're taking visitors around the neighborhood or just out exploring the Jordaan.

    There was a long line and a pretty long wait when we went. The place was fully packed, with both…read moreindoor and outdoor seating. I'd say about 95% of the people were ordering the apple pie, so of course we had to get one to see what the hype was about. The apple pie is pretty unique, it's basically a big chunk of cooked apple topped with a sweet, crumbly cookie like crust. The flavor reminded me of those little brown biscuits you get as airplane snacks... basically Biscoff cookies. lol!!! Overall, you really taste the natural apple flavor along with that Biscoff like cookie flavor. The pie itself isn't very sweet, which I actually liked, but adding some whipped cream definitely brings up the sweetness and makes it even better. The setup is pretty straightforward: get in line, order and pay, pick up your food, then find your own seat. It's definitely a popular spot, so be prepared for the crowd and a bit of a wait.
