Get the pistachio Cruffin (muffin croissant). It was well worth the morning weight since this place is known for its pastries, and it definitely didn't disappoint. I would've gone there more than once if my time in Amsterdam wasn't that short. The staff are really nice and attentive with recommendations. I'm really glad I had friends with me because it was really busy and noisy, and standing in line for 20-25 minutes would've been not as bearable. But the wait was totally worth it. The pistachio paste in the cruffin was AMAZING. Could eat a whole jar of that by itself. I wasn't keen on the French toast because of the tart citrus cream but the blueberries were BIG. read more

Two things to note: there will always be a line even when it's pouring, and there is a savory version of this shop right across the street. We waited in line for roughly 30 min and got into the small storefront. There were a couple of selections but their most popular/viral pastries are the cruffins (croissant muffins). Unfortunately wasn't able to eat everything on the spot and had to save it for the next morning so the croissant wasn't as flakey and crunchy as it could have been. - Pistachio Cruffin, 4/5: sweet nutty and creamy pistachio filling - Passionfruit Cruffin, 4.5/5: flavor was more up my alley, more tangy and cuts through the sweetness - Hot chocolate, 4/5: not pictured, but more bitter using dark chocolate and it was rich. Was given in a small to go cup A little bit overhyped but still worth the visit. bedankt voor het lezen, tot ziens!! read more

No kidding their pistachio cruffin is bomb. Line was not too long, went by pretty fast on a Monday afternoon. Pistachio cruffins sell out relatively fast so be quick! All their desserts look relatively good. I think it's best to take out, but there seems to be a small sit in section. I think it's good but a bit too messy. Tried to hold it and eat but I was an absolute mess with liquidy pistachio dripping all over and sugar everywhere. Still yummy though haha read more

Amazing vegan / plant-based pastries and coffee. Adorable shop with affordable prices - the line was out the door with people who seemed like regulars. The line moved quickly and efficiently. The chocolate hazelnut croissant was incredible, as was the pan au chocolate and the cardamom bun. I wish I could try all of these! The coffee was also delicious. read more

Amazing vegan pastries!! And so much to choose from. I stumbled upon this place during my visit to Amsterdam. The only thing I didn't love was the chai latte I got, didn't have much flavor but I love that they had options for oat milk or almond milk. I would definitely come back. Don't let the long line scare you, it goes by pretty quickly! read more

I would travel back to Amsterdam just for the pistachio cruffin. It was absolutely delicious, a solid 10/10. The filling was slight sweet with a savory hint, the croissant was flaky and soft, absolutely delectable. There was a line to get in and order and for good reason! There was some seating available but a wait to get a table. Next time I'd try out their sister restaurant across the street that offer savory dishes and sandwiches. Definitely recommend !!! read more

The best vegan pastries I ever had! This place is offering 100% plant based house baked goods and coffee. Amazing coffee, amazing deserts and amazing staff. This was our first stop when we arrived to Amsterdam, but we kept coming back for our morning coffee and deserts. My favorite was pistachio cruffin, filled with the best pistachio butter I ever had. Originally I came for chocolate croissant, but everything was just so great. Place is small, so you might not be able to find a place to sit inside if you would like to stay for a coffee, but they do have outdoor seating ( only few spots). Note: make sure to arrive on time ( starting 10am ), as they sell pastries very quickly. Lines are always big ( for a good reason), so come on time if you would like to try the best vegan pastries in Amsterdam ( and wider). Love! read more

Great little spot, an all-vegan bakery with very tasty pastries and top-rate coffee. We stopped in around 10:30am on a Saturday to share a couple of pastries, and for some coffee. There was a line out the door, but we were served within 5 minutes. We shared a pain au chocolat and an apple/almond/peanut bostok, both of which were very tasty. We got some double espressos too, which were very nicely made -- some of the best espresso we had in Amsterdam. Friendly service, but very cramped inside. Worth checking out if you're nearby. Great vegan bakery. read more

In A Nutshell: -Saint-Jean is one of the most popular baked goods & specialty coffee shop in the Jordaan neighborhood of Amsterdam. -The simple, corner building is a must see if you are foodie. -They serve freshly baked goods like croissants & hard to find imported coffee. -The prices are very, very affordable, which is probably why you will see long lines everyday. -If you want to beat the crowds, always come as soon as it opens, which is 8am. Overall, if you wait too long, you might not get in & they will sell out. read more

If you're visiting Amsterdam or if you're lucky enough to live here you MUST get the pistachio cruffin!!!!!!!!! It is perfect in every way and it's all vegan! Everything else I have tried is also amazing if pistachios aren't your thing. Be prepared to wait in a line but it goes by quickly! Cute place and good vibes all around. I bring everyone here! read more

I wanted to buy the whole cafe. The only problem was that I discovered Saint-Jean too late! It was the day before I was leaving, and I couldn't make it there again before I left. If I'd known, I would have stopped by every day while I was in Amsterdam! What's not to love? Saint-Jean has a sleek, clean, posh vibe, yet it also feels warm and comfortable. There is limited seating inside and outside, but there seemed to be a quick turnaround time. Also, the cafe is in a cute residential section of Amsterdam. Last, but certainly not least, the employees were friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. I ordered an Oat Milk Cappuccino, Classic Croissant, and a Pistachio Cruffin. OAT MILK CAPPUCCINO - It was frothy and delicate, yet the espresso was smooth and packed a punch. CLASSIC CROISSANT - It was just perfection. After I went vegan, I didn't think I would ever be able to enjoy a croissant again. I was wrong. I don't know how Saint-Jean does it, but they do! It's made intentionally with flaky, buttery, puffy, and crunchy layers of dough. You can tell the croissant is made with love and precision. I can't get over how good this was. I'm writing this a couple of months after my visit, and I distinctly remember every delectable bite. PISTACHIO CRUFFIN - I saved my Pistachio Cruffin for later in the day when I needed a sweet pick-me-up. I think this was my first ever cruffin! I'm going to guess that it's a muffin and croissant combination! Whatever it is, it was scrumptious! The outside was crunchy, sweet, and layered with flaky and baked-to-perfection dough. The pistachio cream in the center was a silky base mixed with crunchy bits of pistachio. You could taste the pistachio, which isn't always the case with pistachio treats. It was sweet, but not too sweet. The filling didn't necessarily look the best, but who cares, it was all about the taste, and it was Cruffin heaven! I loved how the sugar dusting on the outside gave the cruffin an extra texture and sweet enhancement.

We arrived a bit early for the social media-famous pistachio cruffin, so we opted for coffee and another version (blueberry and pistachio). It was incredibly good, and we returned later for the famous one, which was super delicious. Highly recommend! read more

As a vegan, I haven't had a pain au chocolate in over 14 years. UNTIL TODAY!!! My body does not do well with dairy, but thanks to Saint-Jean, I was not only able to enjoy a dairy-free, vegan crossaint once, but I bought a second one it was soooo good :) :) :) Seriously cannot tell the difference between this and a regular croissant. Bless this bakery!! read more
