This place is well-hidden! Somehow whenever one thinks of a place to meet for coffee in Leiden it's…read morealways Roos, Lebkov, Anne&Max, or Coffee Company... All of those places are great, but this one is still worth considering because: A) It's next to the Pieterskerk, aka in an area with relatively few other cafes (ok you could walk 3 minutes down the road to the busy area but one gets lazy when living in such a small town) B) It's still relatively unknown and has an unpronounceable name, so you're very likely to get a table C) They make great coffee, and I've heard they have insanely good sandwiches. D) It's adorable and very cozy. E) I'm pretty sure it faces the part of the square where they used to hang people. Perhaps a turn-off for some people, I think it's kind of cool - counterbalances the quaintness. Worth a look anyway!

Food was delicious. I had the cas-kas croquettes. My friend got the Caesar salad which was huge and looked good. All of the food came out surprisingly quickly. The service was friendly and prompt when we waved him over to order and requests. Note that Europeans tend to leave you to enjoy your food experience so just politely wave them over if you need anything. He also spoke English very well and the menus came in English. He said they were out of kid menus in English but translated the menu immediately so we could get the kids food ordered first thing. Highly recommend this street cafe if you're in Leiden. Good views, good service and good food.

On Wednesdays and Saturdays, they have a farmers market and so we decided to check it out. It was fantastic! If you arrive to Leiden Centraal,, it is maybe a five minute walk to where the market is held, just look it up on Google. Once we had walked around for a while, we decided it was time for some lunch and wanted to have lunch by the canal. Annie's was the perfect spot as you walked down the steps and the tables are literally right on the canal. I ordered the tuna sandwich and it was absolutely fantastic, a perfect blend of tuna, red onion, and other stuff I cannot describe, but it was fabulous. Husband had the chicken satay and he was very happy with his meal as well. We each had one drink and the total was approximately €40 Definitely recommend. Don't be in a hurry. Just enjoy!
