Nice place for a drink and sweet when visiting Amsterdam. The friendliest service I've experienced in Europe with great English speaking staff. The apple cake is to die for!

The epicentre of Amsterdam. Royal Palace, Madame Tussaud, Red Light, Bijenkorf. Tourists... We all know how over-crowded tourist spots can be. Those also tend to draw some of the most uninteresting restaurants and cafés. This one though, is quite better than the rest. Not really pricey and has a great atmosphere. You can sit outside in the sun, or you can go for one of the 3 different floors inside. Do you like board games? Look no further, for those of you who like to beat their opponents with Scrabble and alike, then this is the place to go (I meant "playing" Scrabble, not beating them with the game's box, although that is certainly possible #talkfromexperience). Unfortunately I went there for a really quick bite, so I cannot say much regarding the food. They do have great soups though :P I am giving it 4 stars because it's like a rare thing to find a nice place in such a location. Oh, and as mentioned on another review, the music playing on the background is great!

Places like these actually bring back a lot of memories. Okay, it was early on Sunday Morning and we were simply wandering around central Amsterdam exploring the city after the big party that they had thrown the night before (though we were probably the only two wandering around who hadn't been up all night. Anyway this place caught our eye so we decided to grab a couple of seats out the front for a coffee. The reason I bring this up was because of the three guys sitting there with their beers at 10:00 am in the morning, after a big party, brought back so many memories of my younger days. As for the cafe itself, they serve an English style breakfast, and the coffee is okay, but not fantastic. I suspect that it probably has more to do with it being more of a bar, but it was still a pleasant experience sitting out the front on a Sunny Dutch morning with a coffee.

Mushroom soup and bread.

Cool bar located very close to Dam Square. It was a chilly autumn day which necessitated something warm NOW. We decided to duck in and sample some soup (mushroom) and bread. Both were delicious and served relatively quickly after ordering. I can't comment on the drinks, as I was way more interested in warm food, but the place looks like it would be a fun hangout, from what other yelpers have written.

Best bartender in Amsterdam.

My husband and I were walking around the De Pijp neighbourhood on a Saturday afternoon and was…read morelooking for a quick lunch. We have heard of Donnies, but have never been so thought this was a good opportunity to try it out. Food: Since we were looking for a light lunch we decided to share the large size of the Kapsalon Kip. The Kapsalon Kip has responsibly raised chicken, hot sauce, garlic sauce, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, jalapeños, cheese and wait for it...french fries! It's definitely big enough for two people and SO DELICIOUS! We kept saying "OMG, this is so good". Drinks: We ordered two ice teas and one beer. If you're a beer lover they have craft beers on their menu. Price: €19.35 Service: Service started out pretty slow when we arrived. No one came to us for 10 minutes and I went outside myself to get the menus off the tables there to see what to order. But once they realised we were there and took our order the service picked up. The waitress in the end was nice and friendly. Ambiance: It was pretty quiet on the Saturday afternoon we were there. The space is very nice and well done. Definitely the nicest doner kabab house I've ever been to. Would I go back? ABSOLUTELY! I'm looking forward to trying other things on their menu.

OH YES!! What a treat :) finally a girl friendly junk food option .. And a very healthy one, so…read moreforget about the junk part. Great flavor, exotic add ons, craft beers and ... very hot waiters :-)) GO GO GO
