He let me try to talk with my broken and unrefined Dutch I have been working to learn. He even taught me a few words to say! Great stop for the little trinkets. I wish I had room in my bag for more.

Terrible customer service. Refused to give me the 10€ in change they didn't give me, which they…read morewere adamant they did. Refused to check security cameras too. Safe to say, I won't be going again.

Lovely little shop with an array of souvenirs. I was looking for some Dutch souvenirs to send home…read moreand this place was a great find. The items all appeared good quality and there was a huge variety (not just the usual pair of clogs). I ended up purchasing several items, including some tasty chocolate for myself. The cashier was super nice and when she found out my friend was from Norway she became very chatty and legitimately interested in what we were doing on vacation. I recommend stopping here and picking up some gifts for your family and friends!

I cannot rate this place high enough.

I've never been more at peace than sat in that window. excellent value for money and we will be visiting the city again purely to visit here.

If you can't to Delft this could be the next best thing. An amazing assortment of Delftware. It is…read morean authorized Delft dealer. The prices rang from extravagant to budget. The shop is really small and tight (there is an upstairs too) so don't go walking around with your backpack on. There is also a section with marked down prices. My wife found a very reasonable Rooster and Chicken salt and pepper set (she loves her chickens, as long as they aren't real- LOL). This is located in the Munt Tower right by the Flower Market, therefore you can shop both in a short period of time. The clerks were efficient and very helpful, taking care to wrap your purchase for safe journey. A definite stop for anyone who loves the classic Delft pottery and can't get to Delft itself.

This is the best place to get beautiful, authentic Delft porcelain in Amsterdam! I walked by on my…read moreway to the Anne Frank House and knew I had to come back to get some souvenirs. This store is not a tourist trap. Most of the pieces here are authentic Delftware. (Check the back if you're not sure!) They have every kind of porcelain you could want: tiles, dishes, statuettes, tulip vases, etc. The owner was probably about 80 years old and was following me around the entire time I was shopping to make sure I didn't break/steal anything, which was pretty entertaining. He was nice enough to wrap up my purchases for me, so I guess he didn't have any hard feelings :) 4 stars instead of 5 because the prices are pretty high. But ultimately, you have to pay for craftsmanship, and most things here are hand-painted. Everyone back home loved their gifts from this store!

Imagine missing the train on Christmas Eve; your family will soon be enjoying a picture perfect…read moreChristmas Eve dinner without you. You are all by yourself, wandering the streets, somewhat lost... You turn a corner when all of a sudden sparkling window lights brighten your view. Intrigued by the four meter wide window display, your eyes slowly glide onto the scene behind the glass, until you hit the entrance. A smart looking chap with a curly mustache stands outside the door opening, lights a cigarette and says: "Welcome to GROOS!" You stumble in and realise you have arrived in what seems to be a candy store for grown-ups. From limited edition prints, stunningly appliqued cushions, rainbow-coloured trousers, cups and saucers with hand-painted characters, quirky books, custom furniture and birdhouse lamps, every corner of the shop is filled with something of interest. Everything is for sale and every item has its own story to tell. Shop-owners Tjeerd and Joost are always on hand to tell you where each item comes from and what on earth the store's name means. Groos: an old Rotterdam slang word meaning proud. And that makes perfect sense, because this newly opened concept store is filled with items designed exclusively by designers from Rotterdam. And there's no crap being offered here, I can tell you. All you can see here is rather special and lovingly made. GROOS takes 'retail is detail' to an awesome new level. And there's more! GROOS uses its store for Sunday afternoon events, where you can watch, taste, listen and enjoy even more of the city's coolest stuff.
