Gelegen direct aan het strand in Amsterdam-Noord, heeft deze plek alle juiste vibes -- goede muziek, fijne zitplaatsen en een prachtig uitzicht. Het grote minpunt was echter de extreem trage service. We hadden slechts wat borrelballen besteld, maar moesten tussen de 45 en 60 minuten wachten. Uiteindelijk moest onze zoon zelf naar de keuken om ze op te halen. Er is hier zeker ruimte voor verbetering.

I had to sleep in for my first day in the city, thus arriving a little later than I thought I would. There will be a queue outside on the opposite side of the (extremely narrow with frequent delivery truck traffic) street, which moves rather quickly despite their cramped space. Food comes out quickly. Service is very nice, split amongst maybe three people on the floor. The Viking Fisherman was just okay. The texture was slightly off for my taste, slimy because of the melted crème fraîche. Eggs are done way under what those in the US are used to. Though I did not taste it, based on my glances at other tables, the croissant dishes seem the way to go. Maybe I just made the wrong choice for today. Would try again if I had enough time.

It was busy and every table on the quaint (hate this overused word too) outside patio was occupied and two small tables inside. Basically, a snug 'standing room only' cafe. I ordered cappuccino for "take away" from the young female barista who was diligent at the espresso machine. While she was preparing my coffee, I noticed several bags of green and white coffee on the shelves bearing the Mortimer brand name. I asked her, "Was the coffee Italiano ? She said, "Sir, I told you to wait for your coffee"! Whoa, I was taken back for a second, then explained that I only wanted to know the coffee's origin. I stood to the side of the counter and the girl smiled and stated, "I think English beans, It's our brand of coffee". My anticipation for a wonderful cold early morning in Amsterdam just went limp and sadly never improved - This type of attitude is not the norm in Amsterdam which we experienced - but everyone has a bad day from time to time. My two cups of cappuccino were ready, which were oddly small for 4€ (see pic, and you decide). With a knee jerk reaction, I still tipped the girl, grabbed some sugar and coffee cup covers and left the shop. This brief interaction tainted my expectation of this cafe, especially in an area that is tourist heavy. At the end of the day, the cappuccino tasted good, the fresh bread loafs and croissants on the counter looked amazing and their breakfast menu looked promising, but told the wife we will find another cafe around the corner.

Saturday, 1pm-ish, yearning for coffee…read more I have to pick up something, but i am stalling. Not sure if I really need coffee, i guess i need an excuse. Coffee is always a good excuse. So here I am, wanting to sit on their big terrace which is unfortunately a bit drizzled on by rain, I will sit inside, window side. I like the place. Looking from the outside in, the place doesn't draw you in though. Once sitting inside it looks nice, styled and clean. Except from the cobweb on the window-sill. Makes me suddenly wonder what bugs are hiding in the fur, stylishly draped over some of the chairs. I'm squeamish for bugs. Luckily easy distracted, so i'm leaning back against it while ordering my cuppa joe. I'm ordering my espresso macchiato, which taste is good but not as scalding hot as i like it to be. And as that was gone in a split second, I'm having a soup, to warm me up (and/or prolong the stalling) It's a chunky tomato soup with bell pepper. I am not a big fan of soup, but a great executed soup i can truly appreciate. So I do. The young staff is friendly but the boy seems nervous. On his "did you enjoy your soup" I have to suppress the need to yell "NO". Not because i dislike him, he seems sweet, but just to see his reaction. I am weird that way. The place oozes tranquility, a perfect place to relax and have a cuppa joe. Too quiet for a Saturday afternoon me thinks. Curious to find out how the atmosphere is during dinner time. Until then! :)

At the opening hour she told us to choose a table. Most of us headed for the outside spots as it was a beautiful morning and it's located on a lovely street. The servers came out and efficiently took orders for drinks and then returned for breakfast orders. They have a varied and delicious menu. The food was quite good. People who arrived a little while after the initial opening weren't so lucky. If they got a table, they had to wait longer to be served as the kitchen was operating full on. Some waited, some moved on. People arriving maybe 30 minutes after opening were served quickly so the trick is to time your arrival. It is definitely worth a visit. Lovely place, food and service.

Not sure what else is on the menu as we just ordered apple pie with whipped cream. A single slice is plenty for two people.

They make about 140 apple pies per day, so you would think that their apple pies are to die for. I thought they were good, but not spectacular (1 star off).

It took us awhile to get our apple pie slices, despite how many pies they make. Our server never checked on us.
