I don't eat a lot of fried food, but I loooove croquettes, so gave Febo a try. Update to the many old reviews that I found here: no coins, 3-4 euros, and you tap your card on the reader and push a button to get your selection. Looks like the fare hasn't changed much. The "spicy" (Dutch spicy? Whatever, not to this AZ girl) croquette rocked! They have fried options and burgers in the wall machine, and chicken, frites, ice cream, and other stuff on the wall. Its relatively cheap and very fast, so perfect for hungry people who don't want a e30 dinner, or anyone with small kids. I'll be back before I leave because it's just too easy, and comfort food rocks. Healthy? Not really. Otherwise why not?

November 2000 we returned to Amsterdam and braved my fears and tried FEBO...what a miraculous day that was! Fast forward to 2024...i returned and brought my children to the exact same location that i had visited previously. I have told them about this amazing place that serves fresh hot food in little windows. My daughter (the healthy one) wanted no part of the deep fried goodness. My son and i came here 3 times and ultimately tried everything on the menu. On our final visit we even ordered fries from the counter! whoa! The guy behind the counter was super helpful and patient with my foreign and inexperienced manner. I only wish FEBO would come to the states. fingers crossed

Croquettes in exchange for a 2 Euro coin, are you kidding me? What's not to like?

Best 2 Euro investment.

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.

But even if I did, it would be a no. I had great burgers and this wasn't it. I didn't touch my salad although my husband ate his. They had to redo my burger since I asked for only bacon and cheese. But they ended up dressing it with lettuce and some sauce. Oh, the important thing to note is that they only give you ONE STRIP OF BACON HOW crazy is that? And the bacon I got was RAW!!

We ordered the Meatless Kroket (€4), Chili Chicken (€1.95), Fritsauce (€0.80), and McFlurry with Celeb Chocolate (€4.10). Both the kroket and chili chicken were very basic and simple burgers, which were decent. The fritsauce gave it more flavor and made it less dry. While the food was ok, we did enjoy the McFlurry which came in a box-like container. It was a nice way to end the meal.

The food sits neatly displayed behind small glass windows, each item looking like a perfectly portioned prize waiting to be claimed. You tap your credit card, pop open the door, and pull out something hot, crispy, and ready to eat. It's quick, quirky, and still one of the most uniquely Dutch food experiences around. This spot also turns into a popular late‑night stop after the bars. You'll see people grabbing their kroketten or burgers, hanging around the entrance eating, laughing, and recharging before heading to the next place. It's chaotic in a fun way -- the kind of street‑corner energy that feels very Amsterdam. Beyond the wall of doors, there's a walk‑up counter serving juicy fried chicken, golden fries, and milkshakes that hit the spot after a long night out. It's a great balance: instant snacks on one side, freshly prepared comfort food on the other. It's not fancy, and it doesn't pretend to be -- but it's clean, fast, and reliably tasty. For a quick bite, a late‑night recharge, or just the novelty of grabbing food from a little door, FEBO delivers exactly what you expect with a bit of extra charm.
