A fun and extensive outdoor market with local vendors selling fresh groceries, cooked food, flowers, souvenirs, etc. It stretches a few blocks so there's plenty of different options. The lines move pretty quickly too so don't get intimidated by the lines. read more

I know I'm in the minority but I wasn't a fan of this market. 90% of the stores and stalls have just cheap plastic souvenir junk from China. There is an occasional crêpe, Stroopwaffle, even a cannoli stand but all of these items were not fresh, they were old, and tasted burnt. The cannoli was not filled with ricotta it was more like Cool Whip and very stale. A bit of a disappointment and can't recommend someone make a special trip for this market. read more

Good outdoor market with lots of street eats and best of Amsterdam vendors and goodies. Worth a stop and pick up a Stroopwafel from there. Excellent and made on the spot! read more

I love markets so I had to check this one out while visiting. There are lots of hot food items, souvenir shops, clothing, fruit, and veggies to buy. We mainly ate the food. We had frites, chicken skewers, fresh orange juice, and bought oranges. I highly recommend the original stroopwafels! You can get a super large one and also packages of 10 to take home. The price is way cheaper here for 10 than in other stores. I bought 5 bags to bring back! They're not open on Sundays btw! read more

When in Amsterdam, we come here daily to sample the pofertjies topped with butter and powdered sugar, hot kip (chicken) dripping with satay sauce, varieties of kaas (cheese) with samples to be had and people watch. Hundreds if not thousands of visitors weekly. Not your typical flea market. Here you will find such a wide variety that it will keep you coming back just to see what you might be missing. From fresh fish and seafood to flowers and vegetables, to clothes and candy, to bicycles and oil and vinegar, this market has something for everyone. Weekends are bustling more and more with tourists which brings more goods for sale. The fresh cooked food and freshly squeezed juices are delicious as are the many desserts. Souvenirs and flower bulbs galore. Tip: Bring cash and barter, for the best price. read more

This is a pretty cool outdoor market in Amsterdam. It's mostly a mix of crappy cheap souvenir stalls and some great food booths. Your level of happiness or disappointment will depend on what you're looking for in an outdoor market. If it's fresh produce and local goods, look elsewhere. But if you're seeking cheap street food snacks, this is a great stop! You aren't going to find tons of food stands, but they have the ones that count. We did a mini foodie adventure in Amsterdam and had a great snack around lunch. First up was a large cone of fresh fries loaded with cheese sauce from a little cart with a long line of locals. Next up was a freshly made stroopwafel from one of the friendliest guys ever. Let me tell you, there is nothing like a warm, gooey stroopwafel made to order right in front of you! Keeping with our local sweets theme, we had to have a plate of poffertjes, little mini pancakes dusted with powdered sugar. Again, these were cooked up fresh to order and were fantastically addictive. Realizing that we had only eaten junk food so far, we split a fresh grilled cheese and portobello toastie sandwich at our final food stand. This place specializes in grilled cheese toasties made to order, with lots of vegetarian options. There aren't a ton of options, but what they have food-wise is pretty good. There's even a lady with an espresso stand, which basically means a self-serve Nespresso machine. Note that there is basically no seating anywhere, so you have to be a seasoned food market foodie with a knack for standing and balancing your food on the go. I wouldn't go so far as to call this market a "must do" while in Amsterdam, but if you are in the neighborhood swing by for some of the freshly-made local snacks for cheap. read more

De Albert Cuypmarkt is pretty neat. It's basically a farmers market on steroids. They have a ton of food joints ranging from stroopwafels and coffee to roasted chicken and ginger shots. My girlfriend, father, and I had a great experience here. I've got to say, I'm extremely jealous that one can find a bouquet of beautiful tulips here for only 3 Euros! I find tulips here in Los Angeles for about $10 a bouquet and half of the time they're already half-dead. Overall, my favorite place was a small coffee spot near the end of the market called Darras. The man who assisted us (who I assume is the owner) was wonderful! He made us fresh Turkish coffee (see pictures) and had a great personality. Highly recommend visiting this spot the most! read more

De Albert Cuypmarkt - Farmers Market Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

February 2018: I always loved farmers the array of food selection is exciting. I wanted to try everything. The goal was to eat everything in sight, if possible. Oddly enough the first thing we got wasn't food. It just so happen I left my scarf at the airport and since it was about 30-40 degrees out the first thing I noticed was the scarf tables. It was almost like it was meant to be. I found a scarf that looked exactly like the one I lost and it was a great deal. I wanted to buy two but it was too thick to be lugging around in my luggage. One was good enough. Once I was nice and warm it was time for some grubbing. The first thing we tried was the little pancakes called Poffertjes. It was neat to watch it being made. I didn't want all the extra stuff, just regular powder sugar. I have to say it wasn't anything different from what a pancake tastes. It was just cute and maybe a bit fluffier depending I guess who makes your pancakes. Next we tried a Bolani, it looked like a big tortilla but filled with stuff. So we tried it out and we got the one with spinach and cheese. I have to say it was really good. I enjoyed this very much and was surprised that no really mentioned this before. It was really filling. The hubby tried the herring and he said it wasn't anything amazing. It was just raw fish. Anyhooo... There were so many fresh fruit juices everyone. This is my thing fresh fruit juice. So good! We were out of town as we had plans to go to the museum. So the last thing we tried was the Stroopwafel, oh man this was awesome. Nice crunch, perfect amount of hot caramel. Oh my gosh, it was so good and the perfect ending. Come hungry and come with more time than we have allotted. read more

I love street markets, farmers markets, anything that sells things outdoors pretty much has me at "hello." This market is large. And when I say large I mean it's a good 3 blocks long but it's a straight shot and pretty manageable. The variety of items was actually quite surprising to me. I was kind of expecting that because it's so large there would be way more repeats that there were. You can literally end up spending hours here but it might not be too much of a problem because there are lots of food and cafe options. Not just in the market either. The surrounding neighborhood is very cute and seems to be well equipped with lots of food and shopping. A few highlights from this market for me were the food. You have to try the pickled herring and the original stroopwaffle. I mean I basically came to Amsterdam to try the stroopwaffle and I was not disappointed. read more

De Albert Cuypmarkt is a must for anyone visiting Amsterdam! As a fan of outdoor markets where you can find and support local vendors, it was nice to know that De Albert Cuypmarkt has their largest one in the area everyday. The first time we visited De Albert Cuypmarkt we were confused to not have seen any vendors out. We were on the right streets and when we asked locals about it, they mentioned that it usually does take place, but had no idea where the vendors were. Apparently the first time we visited they decided to not have the market, which even surprised the locals since they're usually there. We also couldn't find anything on social media channels of any notifications of it being closed, so it was a little disappointing. We decided to visit again, in hopes of seeing the market and fortunately, all the vendors were up and running! I can see why De Albert Cuypmarkt is popular, too, as there were a ton of vendors of various products, including the made-to-order foods that we had been eyeing. The market took place around three blocks of streets and had a good selections of businesses/vendors. There was everything from hot food stalls, to apparel, and souvenirs. It's worth checking out, especially if you want to try Dutch delicacies found here like stroopwafel, mini pancakes, herring, etc... Glad we decided to visit the second time and found all that De Albert Cuypmarkt has to offer. read more

This market stretches down a main shopping street with stores behind the streetside vendors. They sell everything from food to clothing to sundries. If you are a tourist and forget anything from home, this outdoor market most likely has it in one booth or another. The vendors are very pleasant and don't scream at you to shop from them like in NYC. They are polite and as patient as they can be when the market always seems very busy. I noticed places to stand at or sit at a table but I did not notice any restroom facilities to wash hand or use the bathroom on any of the streets. Not sure if the brick and mortar shops offer their facilities. The market is quite festive and a great place to just walk around. I challenge you not to buy something. Even a stroopwaffle with a gooey inside and warm outside for about 1.50 euros. read more

Amazing stroopwaffle, global eats and fresh produce. A great place to walk and explore.

By now, many who know me, know I love indoor and outdoor markets. I have been to a fair share of them in my travels and the De Albert Cuypmarkt ranks up there. While it may not be the mecca of souvenirs, it excels in the local delicacies that Amsterdam has to offer. You want stroopwaffles, pickled herring, poffertjes, cheese, and french fries, look no further. This is the main reason I came to this market despite the freezing cold weather at the time. There is also no need to worry about winding streets and ground to cover in hopes to not miss anything as everything is located on one long straight street. While prices are typically higher than most shops nearby, you are coming here due to the fact that everything Amsterdam is located on one stretch of land versus schlepping around Amsterdam to find your local treats. I spent about an hour going up and down the market tasting treats from pickled herring (Not my favorite) to the local cheeses and drinks and could not be a happier camper! Most stalls work on cash only, but some do have mobile card readers, so just a heads up. If markets are your style, I'd suggest at least considering De Albert Cuypmarkt as it will not disappoint. read more

Once was a Dutch public market has grown in recent years in a lot of ways. You can get bao here now. Or boba tea. Or tons of trendy international food items. Still here are the Amsterdamn favorites like pickeled herring and stroopwaffles. And my favorite is Benny's Chicken which is still rocking it here. There's other stuff like fashion and tools to be picked up as well. Along the market the actual store fronts are great too...just a bit tough to find benind the tents. read more

This is the Dutch Farmer's market where they sell anything and everything. We stopped here for a stroopwaffel. They were hot and fresh and absolutely delicious. I also had to get hand painted clogs ornaments here because they were done so beautifully. Spend an hour or two strolling through this market and enjoy the shops, get some fresh fish to cook at your Air Bnb later and get yourself a stroopwaffel while you're at it. read more

Such a fun market with tons of local bites and the cheapest souvenirs! It was larger than I thought it would be and we ended up spending 2 hours there. Food: make sure to get a stroopwafel, raw herring, and bitterballen. There's juice stands, desserts, and more as well! Shopping: The souvenirs here were 1/2 the cost of ones you'd find in the inner city. I even got a jacket for 5 euro! read more

Albert Cuyp Market was one of the definite highlights of our trip to Amsterdam. This outdoors market is open during the day and draws in locals and tourists alike. On a nice sunny day, this is the place to be for people watching and cheap, delicious street food. The entire market follows down one main road with farmers selling produce and vendors selling miscellaneous souvenirs. Everyone that we encountered on our food journey through the market was extremely friendly and they did a good job in drawing me to a few specific spots that ended up being delicious. Try the raw herring sandwich that Amsterdam is known for- but also go for some fried scallops or calamari while you're indulging on seafood. Eager to tantalize your sweet tooth? Go and try the many stroopwafels or fresh fruit smoothies that's as low as €1 for a cup. You can tend up spending very little for a lot of food and entertainment here at the market. It can get crowded at times but it's definitely a spot worthy of visiting! read more

I love to visit outdoor local markets when traveling so I was excited to check out De Albert Cuypmarkt while in Amsterdam. The neighborhood it's in, De Pijp, was also where our Air BnB was located so we didn't have to walk far to take it in. The market is open Monday-Saturday 9am-5pm. We visited on a Thursday late morning and found it to be not as vibrant as some of the previous Yelp reviews describe. Perhaps it's more so on a weekend morning. The market itself flows down an entire main street and has all types of vendors, from cheese to vegetables to fish to souvenirs, to luggage, etc. You can even buy a washer and dryer here! There was a healthy mix of both tourists and locals here. The raw herring sandwiches, stroopwafels, and frites seemed to be the most common food offerings. There was also a grilled cheese/melt stand that looked interesting. We were not overly hungry, so we shared a large frites (served properly in a cone) with both mayonnaise and curry ketchup. The frites were crisp and hot and-WOW-was that curry ketchup yummy! We didn't stay here that long since we were not really planning on shopping, but I enjoyed the experience of the market and would recommend visitors to Amsterdam to put a trip to Albert Cuyp on their itinerary to experience authentic Amsterdam! read more

If you want to sample a lot of different tastes of Amsterdam at one place for an affordable price then this is the perfect place to come to. Pictured is a chocolate covered stroop waffle and a fish stall. The two things that stood out were the delicious chocolate covered stroop waffles and pickled herring. First the waffle- the hot irons bake the thin crispy waffle right in front of you fresh when you order. The waffle is nothing like what Americans think of as a waffle or a belgian waffle- it is more similar to a cookie texture. In between the two layers of stroop waffle is a delicious layer of molten caramel sugar goodness. I opted to add the molten chocolate making this a warm and addicting treat. As for the pickled herring this was a good item that I was a bit nervous about trying but I figured that I had to try it while in the Netherlands. I was pleasantly surprised and actually quite enjoyed the salty and savory preserved fish with the raw onions that accompanied it. Additionally it is a very nutritious, affordable and filling snack available all around the city. read more

Stretching over several city blocks, De Albert Cuypmarkt is a fascinating outdoor market selling almost everything from clothes to toys to produce and more! But I came here to sample the food stalls, which included both Dutch and international offerings. One must-try dessert in the Netherlands is poffertjes, which were mini, puffy, freshly-griddled pancakes with a choice of toppings. Another unique Dutch treat was the raw herring, which was chopped up and topped with onion and pickles and served with a toothpick with the Dutch flag, or in a bread roll for easy eating. Finally, I also came across a friendly couple from Kurdistan at a stall called Yunus Berkan Gozleme. This stall offered freshly rolled flatbreads with a choice of stuffing, and I got the spinach, potato, and feta cheese. The prepared, folded flatbreads were heated to order in a stone pot, making for a warm, savory treat! On top of all the great food vendors, the atmosphere of the market was simply so enjoyable on a sunny afternoon. Definitely a great place to visit in Amsterdam! read more

I kept forgetting to visit this market on my previous trips to amsterdam and finally did. It's your typical market with fresh food, clothing vendors, and jewelry. It had a pretty touristy vibe, but it seems as though all of Amsterdam is like this these days. I would recommend renting some bikes for the day and riding out here if you are staying in the city. They have freshly made stroopwafels which are much better than the boxed ones at bakeries. I also recommend not eating at a café and just having small bites at all the different food vendors there! read more

HOURS: 9am - 5pm, Monday - Saturday (closed on Sunday). Some vendors may set up later and close earlier. I wish I knew this earlier in my trip. I assumed it was just a Saturday thing. What an amazing smorgasbord of delicious AND cheap food! I highly recommend going here at least once but if you are on a budget, it's a great place to grab an affordable meal. We had delicious grilled cheese, poffertjes (Dutch pancakes), and amazing Lumpia (Filipino spring rolls). Much cheaper than eating in a cafe and more interesting. There are also various vendors with produce, fresh juice, seafood, cheese, meats, clothing, shoes, souvenirs, jewelry, and so on. Bring cash (although I did see an ATM sign in one of the stalls). read more

Very cool market to check out! It's a pretty big outdoor market with food, produce, and clothing/other things to buy. We went on a kind of dreary weekday and were sad to see that a lot of the stalls were closed. But we were mainly going for the food stalls and the ones we wanted to go to were open. We went to the Original Stroopwafels stall and it definitely lives up to all the hype. I love stroopwafels and having it fresh was so amazing. Super cheap too unlike van Wonderen. We also got Dutch fries and the mini pancakes. They were also really tasty and decently priced. Highly recommend you come check out this market if you're visiting Amsterdam. The neighborhood is also super cute too. read more

I brought a friend here because I thought it was the best way to expose them to the Dutch culture. This open-air-market is the greatest way to experience one of Amsterdam classical markets. De Albert Cuypmarkt is one of the busiest markets south of Amsterdam. This market features almost everything on the block. So whatever your looking for then I am sure you will find it here. Albert Cuypmarkt can get very crowded, almost on any-type of the day because it's very popular among the locals and tourist. So, I would suggest visiting it early in the morning or afternoon. If your wondering how to get there, then just jump on the tram from the Dam or central station: 3, 4, 12,16,24, 25 or enjoy a lovely stroll through the city by foot. Albert Cuypmarket is situated in the Depijp neighborhood between Van Woustraat and Ferdinaand Bolstraat.This neighborhood features many wonderful places to explore. -Depijp neighborhood (walking tour) -Chocolate Bar (Plenty of pubs) -Heineken Experience -Hotel Okura ( also plenty budget hotels) -IJscuypje (Dutch ice cream) -Stamppotje (Dutch Dish) -Sarphati Park is a great park to grab a blanket and enjoy the sun. -Large concentration of International cuisines - Dageraadcomplex (Amsterdam school of architecture) read more

Understand this to be the largest outdoor market in the city, and can attest it goes on for blocks and blocks and... more blocks! Literally everything imaginable from food to clothing to souvenirs to whatever you can imagine sold in stores. Gets a bit redundant after about 3-4 blocks but whose complaining? Not me. Epic people watching for sure. I really do think if you're visiting from out of the country and looking for something interesting to do for an hour or two this is a great choice. And of course the price is right. Of course the museums and the zoo are great, but this is hard to beat, and everyone sees those same museums but I bet they won't come to this market. An hour or so around lunch time spent well spent. read more

Albert Cuyp Market is a street market, farmers market, a shopper's paradise. You can find anything from fresh fish, some of the best hummus, some trinkets to send home, wigs, shoes, rugs, flowers, tables, chairs. You name it you will find it. You can easily spend a few hours here walking up and down all the little streets checking out the sales. The original stroopwaffle is also there, looked pretty popular, but it wasn't what I was looking for. I came for the poffertjes, tiny magical little pancakes served with butter topped with power sugar and vanilla honey, poffertjes are amazing!!! They have many toppings, you don't have to have the sugar & honey, it's what I wanted and it was perfect! Looking to shop & eat, head on over to Albert Cuyp Market! read more

Don't leave Amsterdam without visiting Albert Cuypmarkt. It's the place to be if you want to taste some of the snack foods Amsterdam has to offer, all while souvenir shopping (though souvenirs here are not as cheap as Bloemenmarkt). Some key things to try are definitely the (original) Stoopwafel, poffertjes, cheese, and meatballs. The stroopwafel truck doesn't open until 11, whereas the market itself opens at 10. but it's worth the wait. The stroopwafels are made fresh, right in front of you. You can also buy some packaged ones to go if you like. Poffertjes are mini pancakes and come with this giant slab of butter. The butter is a bit much for me but the pancakes themselves are great. They taste light and fluffy. The meatballs are pretty good too. I don't remember which stand, and they do reheat in a microwave but they were surprisingly good - that is unless I was really hungry, since this was the first thing I ate of the day. If you're just want to buy some groceries, they've got that too = fresh produce, meat, seafood, and most importantly, CHEESE. The cheese is AMAZING. They let you try before you buy. I wish I got the chance to try some of the seafood. We could have cooked since we were staying in an Airbnb, but it was the beginning of the day and there's no way I would have carried a dead fish around in my backpack all day. Tip - try to come earlier in the day as it gets packed later on. read more

Super cute outdoor market! So I really thought this was just outdoor food stalls. Nope. Legit food market. You can buy anything. Rugs, lamps, food, groceries, fresh fish, anything and everything But what I really came here for was the food. Stroopwaffel was the icing on top. It was delish. Also tried German brats, potato and spinach flatbread and halal food. I definitely enjoyed my time here. read more

I don't love street markets. I don't love crowds. I don't love being outside, especially during a rainy winter day. However, I do love snacks and there are often snacks a plenty at such places. We came only for the stroopwaffels, which are so so so much more delicious fresh than store bought. We got the original, but they do have a chocolate dipped option and a supersized option (which I am now regretful for not getting). It was warm and gooey and perfect and I miss it so much. We also had some kibling (?), which was like the adult version of fish sticks and I wish I'd discovered this treat sooner. I also grabbed a cappuccino from Wheely's and it was the ONLY decent coffee I had in this dam town. However, it was super slow and someone cut me in line and the dude definitely saw and said nothing. read more

Probably my fault I was not impressed, it was a cool and rainy day when attending... which meant almost certainly less vendors and definitely a smaller crowd? That said, I can imagine it both ways. At full bustle it's probably pretty neat, with a great selection of vendors and a crowd who appreciates it. I can also imagine it just as an ordinary (but very good sized and well-executed) street market, as common to many places all over the world, including many nearby European cities. read more

I was really excited to check out this street market, because I had read good things about it on the internet. Supposedly the biggest one in Amsterdam or something? But when we visited on a Tuesday afternoon, I was a bit disappointed because it looked kind of dead. There wasn't that much going on, and I didn't see any stroopwaffels. :( My boyfriend wanted to try some fried chicken from a vendor that drew a small crowd, so we got some drumsticks and a chicken sandwich. But I don't know if it was due to the Indonesian influence or what, but I found it too be way too oily, salty, sweet and spicy for my taste. There were even additional sauces on the side if you wanted to slather even more sweet chili sauce on. Across from the popular chicken stand was a stand giving out free samples of olives, which were pretty good. We decided to take some green and black olives with feta cheese, hummus, and a ginormous loaf of bread with us for a picnic later at Het Vondelpark. Unfortunately, we didn't have a picnic blanket with us, and my bf had the brilliant idea of buying some old clothes from another vendor to sit on in lieu. I spied a giant mumu, and we thought it would have been perfect to rip apart and sit on... but then I found a felt IKEA blanket for only 2 euros that was probably more suitable for our needs. Darn, so close! This would have been the trip to remember... with the mumu impromptu picnic blanket. Haha... read more
