I read about Water en Brood on a blog post on Travel Noire and this was our first stop in Amsterdam. It was easy to find despite us being a bit directionally challenged lol! The food, the service, the music and the vibe of the establishment was excellent. I could not have asked for a better brunch experience in Amsterdam. I even enjoyed the names of the different items on the menu such as the beyhive, thug passion and OG Benny. We opted for the lemonade with passion fruit, caramel latte, the nutty chicken and the sleepover. All super delish and can't wait to go back when I return to Amsterdam.

This place is a hidden gem. The atmosphere is very chill and fresh and the music is great. The staff is very friendly as well. My boyfriend got the apple cinnamon pancakes and I got the O.G Benny. AMAZING. The menu is a new take on American classics, we will definitely be coming back.

Nice corner spot just outside of the tourist area. I heard about this place but didn't have the the time to drop by. As we were al hungry and were looking for a nice place to have lunch we dropped in. The place has a nice simple decor, clean and neat. Some hiphop music playing in the back. My kind of spot. The place is owned by to brothers, which I love. One in the kitchen and one taking orders. We menu is wel written with some humor like the "allergic to everything" salad. We had the special "pindasoep" a traditional dish from Surinam, the Chicken burger and some truffle fries. The soup was wel prepared served just at the right temperature. The chicken burger looked beautifully crispy and was so wel marinaded I almost wanted the ask for the recipe. The fries were not like regular fries, more like slim French fries topped with graced truffle and Parmesan. The staff was excellent, we didn't have to wait long for our food, he was very friendly and attentive. This is definitely a place where I could hang it more often. As I have no pointers I give them 5 stars.

Terrible experience. Came in, wouldn't sit our group despite open tables. Avoid like the plague.

Amazing chicken and waffles and French toast! Affordable brunch booze and great minimalist decor. Topped off with a fire playlist.

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).
