The business has been making stroopwafels from a homemade recipe since 1951. Three generations have been selling stroopwafels in farmers markets across the Netherlands. They have a fixed schedule on which markets they sell on which days. Since it's market day in Delft on Thursdays, they set up shop in Delft on Thursdays. They have various stroopwafels at different price points. Most of them are made the day before and are packaged for later consumption or for gifts. However there is a person also making fresh stroopwafels and you can get this for €1.30. Cash only. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND HAVE A FRESH STROOPWAFEL. Trust me, that shit's life-changing. (Apologies for the lack of pictures as I ate the entire thing within minutes of purchase. It's really that good. No need to warm it over a coffee nor does it taste of preservatives like the ones you can get at Costco.) Well worth the penance of walking 376 steps climbing the tower of Nieuwe Kerk!

Frens Haringhandel was my favorite stop for food on a recent trip to Amsterdam. On my first visit I…read moretried the Herring Sandwich. Soft bread was filled with soft tender fresh herring (which had no fishiness in its flavor), crisp onions and tangy pickles. I understand why this is a popular street food. On my second visit I had the Fried Cod. Meaty and flakey nuggets of Cod were coated in a perfectly crisp breading with a nice saltiness and flavorful spices. The side of tartar sauce was heavenly creamy, sweet and tangy. Frens Haringhandel is a must visit.

I am not the biggest herring fan, but it was worth a first try. It tastes kind of like sushi fish with onions. Most of their seafood items can be served on a bun as a sandwich.

I can say that these are the best I've ever had (although I may be biased; I come here since the age of 4, or thereabouts). The menu is not long, basically it is poffertjes (plain, wirh rum, ginger or Gran Marnier), dutch waffels (thinner and more crunch than Brusselse or Luikse) and drinks. That's all you will need, though. The enormous poffertjes hob is impressive, the waffel oven is beautiful. As is the "kraam" itself (at least from the front and inside). Worth a visit in itself. It is correct this place is not open all year round, between april and september you are in the clear, though (summer, basically). I believe they open mid april and close mid september.

It was delicious! The herring was pickled, I believe, so it wasn't really "raw". I shared the sandwich with my travel companion, but I could've easily finished one by myself! Definitely worth the stop and would make this a must-have again!

The star was the double fatboy burger though, two nice sized patties with great texture and flavor oozing hot grease and living up to the name. The real cheddar cheese was nicely melted and the bun was so toasted the edges were crisp. The thick cut bacon was plentiful and brought the salt. Lettuce, tomato and pickle complemented the whole packacge nicely and brought variety to the flavor and texture of the burger.
