We got an array of stuff. Ham & Cheese pannenkoeken, frites, toasties, etc. service was excellent. Food was very tasty and seating outside on a nice day makes it a wonderful experience. read more

This place is across the street from the Heineken Experience which is the only reason I ended up here. There were only 3 occupied tables when I went. The menu has nothing exciting or special so I knew not to expect anything spectacular. I just wanted something in my belly. I got a bacon cheeseburger and fries since for some reason, Amsterdam loves burgers. But like what I had expected, it was nothing special. Service was typical European. The server leaves you alone until you're ready to pay. They have wifi but you have to like their Facebook page first before you can use it. read more

We were only in Amsterdam for a week but we stopped by the carousel twice for their pancakes. Coming from the US, I expected pancakes, bacon, and eggs all separately but was (pleasantly) surprised that it was all in the pancake! Drizzled with syrup, rolled up, and snowed with powdered sugar, I had to have it again. Service was quick and pleasant both times and the location is convenient, just a couple minutes walk from a metro and tram station. read more

Carrousel Across canal from Heineken experience and down the street from Rijksmuseum. This inside has an old fashion carousel in the center and the whole restaurant revolves around that theme. Both inside and outside seating. The outside faces a canal and a park. The food is delicious and very well priced. I had a pancake with nutella, fresh bananas and strawberries. Even the syrup on the table was yummy. My friend had a bacon, cheese burger with fries, which was also delicious. With a glass of wine the bill was around €25. Caution a coke is €4.50 very very expensive, which is surprising as my wine was €3.75. Service was quick and friendly. I really recommend this restaurant for children or adults. Its fun, great location and great food! read more

Went here twice for Dutch pancakes. They are super yummy. Service was ok and price was reasonable. Cool inside and lots to choose from.

Please, don't eat here. You're better than this! You don't need a surly waiter pretending he doesn't understand what tap water is and insisting you can only purchase a €3 bottle of mineral water, who will get your order wrong and then blame you for it, then completely ignore you for 15 more minutes as you ask repeatedly for a bill so that you can leave this terrible place and never return. If you want to eat at an awful, overpriced tourist trap, just go to the Hard Rock Cafe. read more

Came two days in a row because it was so good. The savory pancakes are very unique and the poffertjes are so good. Service was excellent.

My boyfriend and I were heading to the Heineken Experience and decided to stop at this place for lunch as it was just across the street. It was AMAZING! We split a savory and sweet Dutch pancake and they were both so delicious! Definitely recommend to anyone looking to try out the famous Dutch pancake! read more

De Carrousel Pannenkoeken - Ham, egg and cheese pancake & strawberry and nutella pancake - Creperies Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

A surprisingly rude waiter made us pay for water, while the folks two tables over received free tap water (we checked their receipt). My ham+cheese+egg pancake turned out to be only ham+cheese. When I inquired about the egg (which cost $1 extra), I was told it's "inside" the pancake. Naturally, I inquired whether my pancake was the only pancake on the menu with any egg, as pancakes tend to contain egg "inside" by default. That logic escaped him... Also, the pancake was dry as dust -- thank god for that tiny $4 bottle of water. I did like the heater, though, as it was very cold outside. If you're ever in Amsterdam, looking for hot pants, dry pancakes, eggless pancakes, or tap water scams, this is definitely the place to be. read more

Gosh the place looks nice but the food sucks so bad We got 2 dishes. pancake with bacon and sweet banana and whipped cream poffertjes. Both of them taste very bland. The batter has no taste in it and the poffertjes tastes like they were fried in old used oil :( The service is good that is why this place earns 1 star not zero read more

This isn't a gourmet restaurant, but they are always open and there's always seating, so if you just want some pancakes or a quiet breakfast in a cheesy carnival atmosphere, this is the place to go. I've had a number of 'romantic breakfasts' here because it's so quiet and low-key that it's easy to relax. It's sort of the Chicago equivalent of a Golden Nugget/greasy spoon type of joint, only they serve pancakes with alcohol! and ice cream! which makes the alcoholic child in me very happy. They also have real English breakfasts and other high-protein foods in case you're into that sort of thing, and their assortment of pancake and poffertje options are vast indeed. The location is ideal for watching people walk by outside through the busy intersection, or watching the elderly or handicapped groups inside that are brought here for breakfast by their caretakers who mindlessly stare at their iphones while their charges enjoy their pancakes. Pancakes make everyone happy! read more

This as recommended to us by a friend so we decided to stop by on our trip at Amsterdam. You seat yourself at the restaurant and the server comes over and take your orders. Ordered the ham cheese and egg pancake. It looks like a pizza. It is like a flat savory crepe. I wasn't a fan of it. But the Poffertjes was amazing. Wish I had order more of it with different toppings. read more

This is my second time here. My first time was my last trip to Amsterdam two years ago. We enjoyed it then, so we made it a point to come back. The ambiance is quaint. It's a circular restaurant with some carosuel horses in the middle. There are then three rings of tables inside and a fourth outside. The kids are allowed to play on the horses, which my daughter loved. The service was very helpful and friendly. The kitchen took longer than we expected, but the servers were always around and she checked in from time to time. The food is delicious. Though it isn't really dinner food, who cares. You can get sweet or savory. I opted for the savory and my wife and daughter the sweet. I started with the pea soup then the bacon and cheese pancake, my wife and daughter got the poffertes with strawberries and mixed fruit respectively. Those poffertes are heaven on Earth. The prices are very reasonable they only have two dishes over ten Euros read more

My husband and I came to Amsterdam for our honeymoon. My sister had been before and she recommended to go to De Carrousel for their dutch pancakes. They did NOT disappoint. Delicious little doughy pancakes that were sugary and loaded with syrup. Exactly what I was looking for. My husband went with an omelette which was just as good. read more

The perfect place for your sweet tooth or a nasty hangover. The alcohol spiked coffees are delicious as well. Try the Italian coffee (a large espresso splashed in amaretto, topped with whipped cream and served with a cookie.) Warms you right up. The staff is warm and friendly and there is a huge selection of pancakes and other treats to explore. The grand mariner Poffertjes (mini pancakes) are mind blowing! And for those cold days, the Snert (pea soup) hits the spot! *ask for the "Maggi sauce" if you order this soup. ;) read more

This place was recommended to me by my hostel (which was about a 20 minute walk away) so I figured, "why not?". De Carrousel Pannenkoeken is located in a great spot to people watch. Different from what I'm used to at dining establishments, I got to seat myself and the waitress took my order. I ordered the Nutella pancakes, a glass of apple juice, and hot chocolate. OK - I needed some sugar. The pancake was as big as my plate. YUGE! The apple juice was plentiful and the hot chocolate was decorated with two large marshmallows which I didn't eat. In all, my meal was good and sugary (on purpose). This place isn't a tourist trap. Stop by if you're in the mood for some good breakfast food. read more

We were here in 2019 (side note: we decided to go back after not wanting to trek up the steep and dangerous looking steps of Pannenkoeken Upstairs. We saw everyone who went up and down struggle or walk angular and most others closed early). This is very close to the ubiquetous Heineken Experience (not going to do it as I am sure I would be disappointed after doing it 30+ years ago). But, I digress. The location has not changed since our last visit and is still as busy as ever;not crowded but steadily busy. We ordered the sweet little pancakes and a savory crepe (not a real pancake!). Dinner took a bit of a while to come and we already had waited a few minutes for someone to attend to us (menus were on the table). The meal itself was blah; dull flavor in the crepe and the much too sweet and almost sickeningly raw little Poffertjes. We were very disappointed. We both ordered tea which came in tall glasses and with a very tall muddler and straw. This is where the trouble came. As I reached to get my one flimsy napkin my sleeve caught the top of the straw and tea went everywhere, including on my leg. We had difficulty flagging our waiter. I attempted to clean up with the tiny napkin but it was no match for a full glass. The waiter came and slightly wiped up with another napkin and disappeared to get a towel. He reappeared several minutes later and wiped down the table and left. He did not return with any more napkins, nor did he offer to replace my tea (certainly something we would expect in just an average restaurant in the US). We continued our meal after I cleaned myself up as the tea continued to drip and be on the floor. We saw the waiter flit around to the outdoor tables, never approaching ours and finally saw another waitress and asked if she could get our waiter to stop by the table. He finally returned and we requested our dining check. We were paying by credit card so we had to follow him to the cashier's counter as the wait staff only took cash payments at the table. Stiil no acknowledgement as to the tea occurrence. We would have at least liked a new napkin and a refill on the spilled drink which is just good business. Unfortunately, we found in our recent trip that in some European countries service is abysmal and getting worse (I think the VAT has contributed as there is no motivation to do a good job) . Here service was non-existent. read more

I love this place. I come to Amsterdam about once a year and this is always my first stop. The pancakes are massive and one will be large enough for an entire meal - there is no need to order something savory and then something sweet. If you'd like both they have a bacon-apple pancake of which half the pancake is covered/filled with each topping. My favorite is the apple-raisin-cinnamon-butter pancake, simply because it's a classic. I've never ordered a meal other than a pancake/waffle here but from what I have seen on other patrons plates everything (especially the bacon cheese burgers) looks delicious. This place has inside and outside seating and is slightly outside the city center away from some of the tourists. The staff is very polite but often can only speak Dutch. Though the menu comes in English. There is free wifi. read more

Gekozen voor De carrousel omdat het er van buiten gezien gezellig uitziet, en omdat t op een mooie plek ligt. Eenmaal binnen valt t vies tegen.. verouderd interieur en een soort stadionverlichting.. verre van gezellig. Bediening laat je niet echt welkom voelen. Bestelling ging verkeerd, waardoor de helft zit te eten, en de rest.. niet. Om 8 uur worden we, terwijl we nog vollop bezig zijn, nogal bot verteld dat we moeten betalen en of we eigenlijk zo snel mogelijk willen optiefen. Vervolgens doet hun pinautomaat het niet en krijg ik de schuld. Ik kom er dus nooit meer terug en zal het niemand aanraden. Dom, want geweldige lokatie en kansen lijkt me. read more

So it was a Merry-go-round. Now it makes dutch pancakes: which is thinner than a pancake but fatter than a crepe. Here they are just ok. It's kinda a neat space...so if you are hungry and in the hood, do it. If you want dutch pancakes, find a better spot. read more

Really awful service. Waited over an hour for my pottertjes order..never came so ended up having to get up and ask the kitchen for my order. Would leave negative stars if possible for the horrific service. Would not really recommend to anyone, as there are plenty of other places in Amsterdam for these types of pancakes. read more

This was fabulous! Absolutely loved the Poffertjes simply with sugar and butter. No need to add anything else. Add a Irish coffee....perfection! I highly recommend coming to the De Carrousel Pannenkoekenhuis. If you can have Tassi as your wait staff, will make your experience amazing. read more

A local friend who has never steered me wrong sent me here for "poffertjes," which are time pancakes, most traditionally served with just butter and powdered sugar. They were PERFECTION. Strong with some crispy bits on the outside, and pillow billowy insides...almost like the dough had magically become a custard. They are best when they are still quite hot. A plate of them includes about 12 cakes--enough to share, but easily snarfed by one (if you're me). I will now be adding 5km of walking to my day... the ambiance here is unusually it's inside an old carousel building in the middle of a park. The service is friendly and very good. My server spoke plenty of English making it an easy transactions read more

Paulien was an excellent waitress. The food was served very quickly and was delicious!

Cute pancake house inside a carousel. Great for kids since it's pretty roomy inside. We were able to bring our stroller inside by our table. They were pretty busy when we were there so we just grabbed a table ourselves. We got the poffertjes (mini pancakes) and they were light and fluffy! We came here after lunch so I was already stuffed but I couldn't stop eating these poffertjes. They also have a changing table and a small sitting area with TV for kids so that was nice! read more

Absolutely fabulous! The neon next to the kitchen says it all: "Dutch Pancakes." These tasty crepe-like treats come in savory and sweet varieties. They can be pizza-sized (pannenkoeken, usually savory) or bite-sized (poffertjes, about a dozen on a small plate, usually covered in fruit and served with powdered sugar and whipped cream). Service can be swift, but be prepared to attract the attention of the servers even when the place is slow. By the way, the place is actually decorated like a carrousel, complete with wooden horses (a sign admonishes you to refrain from standing on them in both Dutch and English). This place is a perfect way to start your day in Amsterdam. Someone should bring this place as a franchise to the USA --- you could make a fortune. Highly recommended. read more

Really... "Meh" sums it all up. The location itself is nice and I like the inside, but the pancake was barely average and just not memorable at all. They seemed to have more menu options and an ice cream fridge with different flavors.. maybe worth trying? I personally wouldn't come here again for the food, but maybe for an occasional cup of coffee on the outdoor terrace. read more
