    The Cheesy
    Sara A.

    Definitely a solid spot for grilled cheese if you're nearby. I got the cheesy and thought it was tasty but wish the cheese was a little more melted. I did get a ginger mint tea and it paired really nice on a cold afternoon.

    Very good coffee ( love how cute this sized cup was )
    Genna G.

    Best service. We were in a rush and the server was so kind and accommodating. Gave us our coffees in to go cups and guided us what to order that would take the least amount of time possible. Coffee was great. Food was ok ( croissant with ham and cheese) Prices were reasonable. Nothing amazing but appreciated our experience overall and would recommend if looking for a quick meal in the neighborhood.

    Order: Say Cheese Grilled Cheese

    Toastable is a hidden gem loved by the locals of Amsterdam. They have a wide variety of delicious triple-layered grilled cheese sandwiches. I ordered the "Say Cheese" grilled cheese with Mozzarella, Gouda, and Cheddar cheese with mustard. As most people know, I love cheese, making this the perfect sandwich for me. Toastable also serves an amazing breakfast, so no matter what time of the day, make sure to stop by. Order: Say Cheese Grilled Cheese

    The Legend with Jalapeños
    Jane C.

    The Legend was the best Grilled Cheese Sandwich I've had in Amsterdam! My friend and I stopped by to grab a sandwich to go. We had to get the The Legend (original recipe since 2012) with Jalapeños! The wait was kind of long but the sandwich came out fresh, piping hot with cheese oozing out and melting all over. The first bite was sooo good. It was worth the wait!

    Great location across from the "flower" market, its a super cool breakfast joint serving a menu based on, drum roll please, yes you guessed it, toast! Nicely done combinations of vegetarian and meat options on fresh sliced bread, some with actual Dutch cheese melted on. Its not that the food is so amazing, but the sum totality of the experience makes this place work. Have breakfast here, then proceed to the open air market across the canal and buy some sex toys, weed paraphernalia, weed seeds or tulip bulbs to smuggle back through our border "sieve" if you dare. (I'm speaking to you residents of the US who are intrepid enough to actually visit this EU version of adult Disneyland)

    Me devouring the Fajita tosti!!!

    This place is such a hidden gem in the heart of Amsterdam! We got the fajita and the legend and they were phenomenal! The perfect lunch spot and relatively affordable. As you can see from the photo of me devouring the Fajita, cheese just oozes out of the sandwich, it's amazing! I would prepare for a bit of a wait because collectively there are maybe 8 tables in the restaurant as it's a very small space! That said, totally worth the wait if you like cheesy delicious toasted sandwiches!

    SUPER CUTE spot that we stumbled upon. It's located in one of those stairs leading down from the sidewalk - so it's easily missed. It has outdoor and indoor seating but indoor seating is much more ample & it's quite cozy as well. We seated & the menus were on the table. They were out of croissants that day so that's unfortunate. I ordered a Latte which came with a cookie & honey. They didn't have brown sugar BTW. Only had white sugar on the table. The latte was quite good & came in a glass instead of a cup, like I'm used to. I ordered the Double Cheese - at the top of their menu it states " Our World Famous Toasted Sandwiches" so of course, I had to give it a try. It's aged Gouda cheese with mustard on your choice of white or wheat bread. I decided on wheat bread. HOLY MOLY - it was super cheesy & it was 3 breads between two layers of cheese - if you're a CHEESE-A-HOLIC like me - then it is HEAVEN! It came with a sauce which is similar to ranch with a hint of horse radish. You pay up front - FYI. It was a great breakfast find as they are open quite early - 8AM. I'd totally recommend.

    Vitello tonnato toasti (special April): this is only half the tosti! pretty big portions
    Andrea P.

    Toastable is a cute half-underground breakfast and lunch place. I had lunch here a couple of times and really liked it! The distinctive and interesting thing about toastable is their tosti's: they offer different kinds of these dutch "croque-monsieur": three toasts garnished traditionally with ham and cheese. Here, they have much more variety and offer original and tasty ingredients to garnish the tosti's. Last time, I had the special of the month which was a vitello tonnato with parmigiano, tomato, rucola, served with truffle mayonnaise: really nice!! They also have a nice breakfast menu: you can pretty much compose your own breakfast, choosing among different pastries, cheeses, ham, vegetables, etc. I'll need to try that one once! Oh and I really like their homemade ice-teas!! - finally a place that serves non-sparkling ice-tea in this country, what a relief.... (seriously what's up with the sparkling ice-tea, dudes??) The interior is all white and pastel colors, very cute. There are a few tables outside in front of the canal. Service is really nice, too. A very nice place for breakfast/brunch/lunch!

    Ham n cheese

    Bang for your buck! Loved the simple and straightforward choices. If those don't do it for you, you can customize your own toastie. Each toastie comes with its own dip - either mayo, ketchup or mustard. I went for the corn bread (yum) but the dark bread option looks great as well. The toastie has three slices of toast so you're sure to fill up. If you get thirsty like I usually do when eating toast, there's lots of ice tea and juice options.

    Really great options for savory food - delicious toast as well as overnight oats and really friendly people working there!! Also, try the red juice !! It is extraordinary 5/5

    The Gorgonzola- Gorgonzola with pear and walnut on brown bread. Plus Apple balsamic syrup
    Ellen S.

    Great selection of tasty sandwiches. Each was a huge hit with the family. We got the Gorgonzola, Meatball and kids ham and cheese. The sandwiches have 3 slices of bread (the kid only 2) so it's very filling. The toast is perfectly fine with that wonderful amount of doneness. Friendly atmosphere and helpful service. My kids spread want the go back for breakfast as you can build your own creation.

    I adore this place. If I checked in every single time I came here.. well, you'd wonder if I worked here instead of down the road :/ For a morning coffee, afternoon coffee or late afternoon sugar rush, these guys are great! It's not a strong coffee but it's creamy and delicious and best of all, it's NOT BURNT (ok.. sometimes it's burnt but it's not Starbucks) and you always get a cookie. And sometimes this cookie is homemade. It's basically heaven in a super cute cup that comes with super comfy corrugated holder! Anyway, things that I adore about this place: TOASTIES! Well duh. There is truly nothing more homely and satisfying than a ham and cheese toastie (squished together on 3 SLICES, that's right, 3 SLICES OF BANGING BREAD)! Do try the deluxe meatball toastie (ask for satay sauce instead of the mayo) or the deluxe chicken! Because yum. Oh and the bacon with brie! So good! Service is usually pretty spectacular if you eat in as well. The guys and gals here are super sweet, it's like they enjoy serving people food (unlike most of the Amsterdam cafe culture where like.. they don't). The only terrible thing is, sometimes the wait is looooooooooooooong. I've waited over 30 minutes for a toastie (whilst eating in). My work colleagues and I have cheated, where we call ahead to order a toastie to pick up- they say, cheerfully, that should be ready in about 10 minutes! We rock up 20 minutes later and they are only then slicing and dicing it up to put in a takeaway container but the timing is perfect so everyone wins. But really, that's a tiny issue because everything else about this place is great! Worth the wait. They have free wifi here so you can bum about online for a bit or sip a coffee (with home made cookie). This place is lekker. I'll be back tomorrow. And the day after that too..

    Soooo good. Amazing fresh sandwiches loaded with cheese and other things. Big portions. The interior is extremely cute and has an Instagram worthy aesthetic for sure. My only down side was that on a warm summer day it can be quite steamy inside eating hot toast.

    Everything about this place was great!…read more I'll start with the service. We walked in around 4:10 and they didn't start food service for another 20 minutes. The waiter was super cool and told us to have a seat anywhere we liked and brought us a drink menu. He knew we wanted to eat so at exactly 4:30 he came and took our orders. Through out the meal he was on top of everything and even offered many suggestions! The food was spectacular as well. I had the trio of fries and my friends had other small plates that were all so good! And the sauces that come with the fries, mamma mia! We also shared the Boca's Platter and it was absolutely to die for. Do not pass this up. I repeat, do not pass this up! Between 4 people, the medium was plenty of food. The space itself was also nice. They had outdoor seating for nicer days. We went right when food service began on a Monday afternoon so can't speak to how busy it gets during peak hours. Go for the great service, go for the Boca Platter, whatever you do, just go!

    Our first stop in Amsterdam for a late lunch. We ordered mushroom bruschetta, 1 medium boca…read moreplatter(meat,cheese,fish), three kinds of fries and of course STEAK TARTARE. The bruschetta was delicious and if you love blue cheese, get it...it's extremely rich and creamy. The three kinds of fries were solid; curly, sweet potato, and regular with some chili ketchups. The boca platter was HUGE and we got the medium for 4 people. Came with steak, fried shrimp, mackerel potato salad, crostini, and an assortment of cheeses and some pepperoni. Last but not least...my favorite...the tartare. The quail egg was delicately placed atop the center of the meat and placed alongside the four little crostini on the plate. It was juicy and had so much flavor, a little spicy but not an overwhelming amount of chili spice. This meal reminded me of tapas in Madrid; definitely stop by bocas and get everything!

    Coffee & Coconuts, seriously another amazing cafe that I visited during my trip in Amsterdam!…read more This cafe is hidden on the outside, but once you step inside, it is massively huge with three stories of dining tables. After waiting to be seated, our hostess guided us upstairs to the third floor, where they have several more dining tables and cozy couches that you can sit on while you enjoy your coffee. My parents, having visited this cafe before during their last trip to Amsterdam, raved about this place and suggested that I try their famous coconut coffee. All three of us ordered their coconut coffee, with my dad adding an espresso shot to his own so that he could stay awake for the rest of the night. Once I reached that first sip, OMG. SO DELICIOUS. How can I make my own coconut coffee back at home?! I loved it so much that I really want to make a copycat of it. The straws are also bendable, which really makes it handy if you need to lower your straw a bit. If I could, I would get on a plane to Amsterdam just to come back for their coconut coffee. That's how delicious it is! Local or tourist, I strongly suggest Coffee & Coconuts. You will not regret coming here at all!

    Fantastic ambiance. Friendly service. Excellent food and drink options…read more Casual, trendy, comfy spot for just coffee or a full meal. - Coconut Coffee: A delicious iced drink, rich in coconut and strong coffee flavors. - Royal Apple Juice: Very refreshing blend of apple, carrot, ginger & lime juice. - Kimchi Toast: Good, filling. Not too spicy at all. - Smoked Mackerel Sandwich: A whole, huge mackerel fish is served atop this toast. Yum! Bathrooms are located on European first floor (for Americans, that's not the ground floor. It's equivalent to the 2nd floor).
