Albert Heijn is just one of those brands you can't escape in The Netherlands, so I wasn't surprised…read moreto see them here in the country's largest Airport, Amsterdam Schiphol, the store is fairly small as an "AH To Go" location, but still has a decent section of essentials including bottled snacks, drinks and a coffee machine. It's located before security, meaning you don't need a boarding pass to enter here, and it can be particularly useful if you're looking to grab a drink or snack after departing your flight before commencing your way into the city. I was unable to find one of the items that I came into the store from, they only had the small kid's sized cartons of milk compared to the larger size, which was frustrating. Prices did seem a little higher than other Albert Heijn locations in the city, probably down to it being an Airport location. The self-service checkouts were easy to use and had an English option, I didn't notice a staffed checkout or any staff members around the store. 3* - The store is fairly modern, the selection is OK, and is useful if you want to grab a quick drink after your flight, if you are able to wait until you get into the city you'll probably find a better selection with lower prices at another Albert Heijn or similar store.

Great grocery right outside Amsterdam airport. Much bigger than expected selection of fresh fruit,…read moremeats, dairy, etc. Easy to stock up here on the way to your destination. One bank of automated self service machines that take credit card, as well as cashier service.

Nice grocery store they with a good selection of items. They do not take American credit cards.read more

This grocery is right in the center of Haarlem and boasts loads and loads of selection. The store…read moreis clean and bright and very well stocked. Saturdays are *very* crowded. If you have the option, go on a weekday morning. You'll avoid the enormous crowds that clog the aisles. The prices seem very reasonable and there are some discount bins to rummage through.

As the Dutch say... Het komt allemaal in één maag - It all goes into one stomach! IKR?! Brilliant!…read more So apparently this is the official Albert Heijn I first walked into, I had no idea there's so many across Holland lol. If you can imagine a Nordic version of American Trader Joe's or Sprouts Market. Cool, eh? Local cheeses, organic fruits and drinks, cheeses, fresh breads and Dutch baked goods. Did I mention cheeses? Lol like a load of cheesy stuff! Deli meats, local beir and alcohol. I think you get the gist of it. And yes, greeting cards, toothpaste, etc., etc., etc. On my visit I stumbled across this Albert Heijn located just across the tiny wooden Dutch bridge of my hotel in Zaandam. I picked up Appeltaart Punten Uit De Bakkery for only €2.50 euro, Pecan Karamel Vanille Ice Cream from Hertog Yysalon only €1.50 euro, and a organic berry drink for only €1 euro! Just look at the pics if you don't speak Dutch lol! TIP: They don't take Visa or Mastercard! So make sure you have a small amount of Euros on you! In the end, I highly recommend Albert Heijn in Holland! Great options for traveling families or someone like me just looking for a late night snack:P I ended up going to this location in Zaandam twice and to another location at the Amsterdam Schiphol. Wonderful Dutch grocery chain! ME LIKEY! :D

Slightly less costly grocery store, this one doesn't feel well organized to me and for some reason…read moreI always have a hard time finding things. Could just be me though. I prefer Jumbo, Vomar, and Albert Heijn in this area.

Dirk van den Broek is, without question, the best place to get your groceries. Their home brands…read moreare cheap, like at Aldi (actually often cheaper), but you can also by regular brands, which is nice, because not all the cheap brands taste the same as the real ones. I've always had friendly service here too, plus they take credit cards, which still seems rare in The Netherlands. (They do charge a small fee I think though, for a credit card, like a quarter? Debit/pin cards are free) This store is huuuge too, with a liquor store and drug store on the first floor. This is definitely the biggest Dirk I've seen. It gets pretty busy here, so be prepared for an occasional restocking cart in the aisles and a lot of other shopping carts, but that's probably because it's way cheaper than the nearby Albert Heijn.

I was staying at the element hotel inside the same shopping center this market is in. I read…read moresomewhere that this location is the biggest location inside Holland. Having been to other numerous locations all over Holland I believe it. I especially like the prepared food section in the front, when you enter. There is a big selection of items. They usually have a few items on special and are clearly marked. My favorite item to buy was a pasta carbonara. Ate that almost everyday. Also, they do take credit cards. My favorite market chain in Holland for sure. Recommended.

Great supermarket, with quality foods and great options…read more Only complaint is that some of them doesn't accept credit card.

I returned a few minutes later and turned to the worker. She had the card but I was told I was leaving without paying (?!). I paid again (!). It was only when I returned from the Netherlands that I noticed that I had to pay twice for one purchase. More: it's no answer for my letter from Jumbo (!).
