Loved this place so much we came back twice! Delicious pancakes, stellar kind service, and a wonderful hip hop vibe. There's a unique combination of good food and humor one doesn't see often in food service. Very much hope this place is still here and flourishing whenever we are back in Amsterdam
Moak takes the humble American pancake and turns them into ingredient loaded, sweet and savory versions perfect for the gram. Their menu is a memorable one, with tongue-in-cheek rap references. If you are feeling extra, you can order the 100 euro "Golddigger" which comes with not one, but three 22-carat gold leaves and rosé champagne. I'm pre-IPO, so I opted for the more affordable "Bubba Sparxxx". But I splurged on the avocado add on. This millennial couldn't resist. I'm not sure how I went through life without knowing the wonder of BBQ sauce on pancakes. The corn, tomato, cobb salad, and pulled chicken were like a summer picnic in one. The pancake itself was not sweet. I bravely added their house maple syrup, and the sweetness actually enhanced the crazy combo. I dined alone so didn't get sample other pancakes, but the sweet towers passing by looked exciting as well. I enjoyed this concept - visually appealing, unique pancakes and fun flavor combos. The ingredients themselves were fine, nothing standout. Together though they made for a tasty meal. I left satisfied and with an added perk of the Ms. New Booty chorus happily stuck in my head.
My Dutch buddy suggested we check out MOAK Pancakes West for breakfast. Note, these are American style pancakes (not Dutch). They have a second location downtown. We dropped in on a Wednesday morning (around 11:00am). The inside is huge and tables go further back then you'd expect. The menu is split into yogurt bowls, salads & avocado bowls, American pancakes, Moak favourites and vegan American pancakes. They really are stoked about their organic maple syrup, which comes from Canada. Had no clue you could get maple syrup from Nova Scotia. It was light in flavour. Where I come from, the best Canadian maple syrup is from Quebec. - Latte (€3,75 large) - good coffee flavour and balanced the amount of milk well. The extra foam was a nice touch. - The paid in full (€10,50) - baba ganoush, sweet African pepper mix, avocado, artichoke and olive oil. They give you a good dollop of eggplant spread. Avocado was creamy but there was way too much artichoke. Pancake itself was better here than in the infamous. - The infamous (€11,50) - banana, chocolate sauce, peanut butter, strawberries, blackberries and cinnamon. The bananas were the tastiest of the fruit. Nice that the chocolate sauce wasn't overly sweet. The pancake wasn't great; dry and really needed maple syrup drizzled over it. That helped somewhat. Hipster American style pancakes but I wouldn't come back.
The breakfast/brunch spot is very trendy inside, but some of their items are very basic and there isn't really anything special about their food. We got the pancakes covered in chocolate sauce with fresh berries and bananas as well as avocado pulled chicken and corn salad (5 euros). The avocado was too firm. The lattes however are very good, although not strong in terms of espresso shots. I probably wouldn't come back here again.
This place is awesome! One of the best pancake places in Amsterdam. Hipster atmosphere with pictures of T-pac on the walls :-). We did have to wait outside for a few minutes but they got us seated right by the window up front which was a fun view. The pancakes were delish! My kids and I had a the infamous and my husband had the pink lady. He was a little skeptical about getting salmon on a pancake but it was excellent. All of their pancakes are sugar free but chocolate, peanut butter, cinnamon and a bunch of fruit still is an explosion of flavor. Check this place out!
I am still dreaming about these pancakes from 4,103 miles away. THAT is saying something. I came here with two of my girlfriends, and I ordered the Blue Magic Deluxe and added peanut butter. I have no regrets. I ended up adding more maple syrup (because who has ever had TOO much syrup) and it was perfect! The décor in this place is bright and inviting, and extra points for the biggie mural downstairs. The workers are super friendly and patient, which we really appreciated as we studied the menu for a few minutes too long. Overall if you're a fan of pancakes, I definitely recommend checking out Mook. Also... add the peanut butter, you will not be disappointed :)
What is saffron doing in my pancakes and why is it so good?? Lovely staff and a fun atmosphere - popping by on a Saturday morning around 10AM got us a table right away, along with mouthwatering pancakes. I slowly devoured the decadent Ice Ice Baby - featuring a scoop of house-made saffron pistachio ice cream and covered in Canadian maple syrup. My friends went the fruity route and had the blue magic & blue magic deluxe pancakes. Needless to say, we didn't speak much for the first several minutes, except to communicate through a series of groans and ridiculous face-making over how delicious our meals were. The pancakes withstood the syrup, maintaining excellent fluffy texture, and I was stoked at how perfectly made my cappuccino was. I'd say they're absolutely worth the wait if you encounter one, and hot tip - just take your bill up to the counter to settle up when you're done!
We got there around 11 and there was no wait (there was a pretty good sized line when we left). Interesting menu of American style pancakes (with toppings - sweet and/or savory), yogurt bowls, and avocados (which looked to be half an avocado filled with your choice of ingredients). They have juices, tea, and coffee to drink (also had one mimosa option and some sparkling roses I think). The coffees were just okay. The pancakes were good. It's three or four in a stack. Plenty of toppings. And they bring a bottle of maple syrup (their brand so not sure if it's real maple syrup or not). Good place if you are craving American style pancakes.
For Americans expecting a fancy version of what they get back home, they may be sorely disappointed. By default these are wheat pancakes which are not nearly as light, fluffy, or moist as an American pancake. Personally a flavored version like ginger or pumpkin spice would have been more to my taste. My strawberries were not at all sweet which is an issue at home too. Blueberries on the other hand were just great. I had the Blueberry Magic Deluxe with bananas, strawberries and coconut sprinkles in addition to blueberries and maple syrup.
MOAK was my go to choice for pancakes while visiting Amsterdam. The price was a little on the higher end, but that is more of an Amsterdam characteristic I think than this place in particular. Wanting something hearty I got the manly man pancakes, which had bacon and cheese on them, absolutely delectable! I loved the service, the feel and vibe of the restaurant and they had free water (thank Jesus). I would recommend anyone MOAK pancakes if they're looking for a spin on the traditional American breakfast. 5/5 experience all the way around.
The food is what I guess is considered to be American breakfast. It is actually not American and a bit strange. For example, pancakes covered with bacon, cheese and onions... My son absolutely loved it and we visited a few times while in Amsterdam. Pancakes are pretty good and the fresh juices are excellent. The service is very good. Unfortunately, the decor and ambience are a little strange in all MOAK locations in general as I am ok with likes of Michael Jordan painted on the walls but other personalities that they choose to put like, Oprah Winfrey and gangster rappers would not be my first choice to be staring at me while I am eating breakfast. There are excellent breakfast places all over Amsterdam and for local flare there are definitely better choices, but for a tasty and fun meal, MOAK is definitely worth checking out.

The pancakes were really good! Especially "The Infamous", they were really generous with the chocolate, peanut butter sauce and fresh fruits. read more

My friend and I came here as it's one of the only known places to have a vegan option for pancakes. I ordered the chocolate sensation vegan pancakes and my friend ordered the Pink Lady pancakes (non-vegan). Not the best experience for either of us. My friend who got the pink lady loved her dish at first, but after we left the restaurant she mentioned how uncomfortably full she was. She was holding her stomach for a while, thinking she was just really full. As a couple of hours passed, she was becoming increasingly nauseous. We were on the tram and she literally had to run out to throw up on the sidewalk. She has thrown up a few more times since then. Considering that the only thing she had eaten was the Pink Lady pancakes, there is clearly something wrong with either the salmon or the milk at Mook. My dish was overwhelmingly chocolatey, but it was a thin chocolate syrup that had no real sweetness to it. It was okay, but I wouldn't get it again. I would probably go with the hummus one if I could re-choose. BTW- you can ask them to make any of the pancakes vegan. It'll be made with soy milk instead of dairy milk, but will be much thinner and less fluffy. I'm giving this place two stars rather than one because I did appreciate that they have so many vegan options and they had good service. However, from this experience, I would not recommend Mook. read more

If you like great service, a relaxed atmosphere, old skool hip-hop and pancakes that make you salivate....this is your place. The owner is so chill I had no idea who he was until it came up in conversation. The G.O.O.D. Morning pancakes were amazing. I will definitely be back! read more

I was expecting this place to be much better than it was. It was definitely good food, but not amazing. The avocado starters were great but so expensive for what you get (5.5 euro for half an avocado). The pancakes were good but a little dry. They do have very good juices though and the atmosphere is cool and comfortable. However I do know that my view could be a little skewed as an American. I've heard that pancakes are wheat and usually drier here. read more

A little spendy/ touristy, but definitely filling! I got the chocolate sensation and added peanut butter, but kind of wish I had just replaced the chocolate with peanut butter (it was a little overwhelming). Lots of fruit on top, and very cute interior! Pretty noisy so you really have to speak up if you're eating with someone, but we were seated/ able to order quickly. Think I still prefer the American tradition of maple syrup but they have many toppings to try from! read more

I'm here in Amsterdam for my husband and birthday weekend with some friends and I was looking for a good breakfast spot so I yelped breakfast near me and Mooks Pancakes popped up. I told my husband I could use a good breakfast before we start our day so this is place we choose and I'm so glad we did! The service was AMAZING, the greet you as soon as you walk in and you seat yourself which is wonderful! As soon as we sat down the waiter offered us the menu of freshly squeezed juice and recommended the melon juice and it was superb!! We placed our order and the wait wasn't long at all! Food was delicious especially the smoked salmon and avocado mmmm mmmm good!!!!!! read more

Really great tasting pancakes and I loved the fact that they have mimosas - it made our Saturday morning breakfast awesome. So happy they're able to veganize their pancakes. I would however say that the portions are far too big, and while you get what you pay for, nor me or my friend were able to finish our plates meaning a lot of money went straight down the drain. If possible, I will ask for half a portion should I revisit. read more

The pancakes were the best that I have ever had. The fresh fruit had bananas, blueberries, and strawberries. I was seated in view of the chefs and watched them make it just for me, no heat lamps. It was the first time I have tried pear juice, and it was amazing. Must stop place in Amsterdam. read more

Excellent and fresh pancakes! Service was heart warming and staff spoke very good English. There was plenty of fruit and berries in the dish. The batter was well textured and moist. Prices varied from 8.5€ and 12€. Juices were fresh as well and they were 4/5€. I would have given 5 stars if prices were lower. I would 100% recommend! read more

So happy to find vegan pancakes in Amsterdam. These came out topped with berries and syrup. Yum! The only thing I wish was if they had vegan versions of Dutch cuisine (Waffles, etc)...these pancakes were like ones I could get back home. Oh and the staff were super nice and the service was better than the other restaurants in Amsterdam. read more

I also had the fresh squeezed pear juice which was bomb! Some people near us got the avocado starter and it looked really good, wish we had tried that as well! read more
