During when it's normal, Bakkerij Kwakman is a homey, clean, little bakery that's located very conveniently (on the other corner, same side) of the hop-on hop-off canal boats' Leidsestraat stop. Super basic bakery stuff, nothing too fancy, but tasty and done well with a pretty good variety. In addition to their small loaves of bread (there seems to be a focus on sourdough), they also really emphasize themselves as a croissanterie (?). I got a croissant as well as a frikandelbroodje (sausage roll). It was a cold day and munching on toasted, warmed up pastries during a cloudy day while out on the canal was so GOOD. Additionally, they also had smoothies, bottles of fresh squeezed orange juice, and just a bunch of little treats set out for sale. Just head up on keeping an eye out cause they kind of have little things all over the place. They're a small place, and overall is pretty narrow. There's not much in terms of seating, just small counter inside with a few bar stools indoors. They do actually have a small outdoor space, which is a bit comparatively different to the surroundings. Outdoors, they have this little L-counter that encloses another two or three other bar stools, practically set onto the sidewalk. It was very cute. Overall, I thought the variety of simple but delicious food and drinks and cute, homey space makes this a great breakfast nook if you live nearby. I'd encourage people to visit when things are okay again.

They're certainly a solid croissant though. I'd like to come back here and try more of the other breads they have to offer.

Walking to the center we've found this fantastic bakary where for 3 mornig we've had the best breakfast we could do and find. It's the true, the bread was fresh, the lady of the bakary was so kind and helpful that we came back for all the journey.

I ventured all the way from Noord Ams just to try these caneles. (I had a hankering for them since…read moreI tried them for the first time, months ago, elsewhere.) I bought one canele and a large chocolate macaron. I ate the canele outside the store and it was delicious! I love the slight crisp on the outside, sort of chewy, and the soft, moist spongy interior. I went back in and bought 4 more! I also really enjoyed the macaron. It was soft and chewy inside, very sweet. I have never seen such a large macaron! The service was quick and friendly. They were many employees working together. I had previously found them on Facebook and reached out via messenger to make sure they actually had caneles before making my 45 minute journey. They responded that they did and that large orders could be placed on their website. The site has other offerings as well.
