Super friendly and quick to us, tossed in a cute dutch shoe keyrings for extra charm on our visit, Oh, but the restroom? Charging €0.50 for UNICEF--even after we dropped €40 on pancakes--felt like a cheeky gotcha for my wife and me, a "uniform" policy to fund clean water while non-guests freeload, leaving us muttering about cheap charity upsells that stung just enough to sour the vibe after such a great meal.

When we arrived and hiked upstairs, yes it's a hike straight up steep stairs, only to see the sign "fully booked" womp womp. HOWEVER, we asked if there was a waiting list because we didn't realize reservations are basically necessary. WE GOT LUCKY as a table was available because someone didn't show for their reservations!! We ordered the special of the day, blueberry & cream, and a bacon, cheese and apple pancake. Quickly cooked up and served and boy were they both delicious! I also didn't know it was a cash only establishment or debit card. Whom I presume was the owner was so sweet and again luckily our US credit card could be processed as debit. Saved me from having to do dish duty! Definitely a must do in Amsterdam but make a reservation and carry cash! Also to note, they only have 4 tables and if you're more than 5 minutes late for your reservation they may have given away your table!

That said . . . the food is delicious (from my last visit), and it's such a cute, unique little spot. They're known for having just 4 tables and a 12-person max, which makes it feel super intimate and cozy. Definitely worth checking out if you get the chance . . . just skip it if you have a nut allergy!

This place has changed its name to The Pancake Club, but looks to be serving the same thing…read more Located right next to river and has seating outside under mostly shaded trees. We were there the day after Kings day and it was a lovely morning. The weather was cool, but not cold and we were able to enjoy the nice breeze and canal boats passing by. I was also able to connect to the WiFi from the Casino across the river. It was weak, but still worked. We were seated outside and waited almost 10 minutes before anyone came by to take our order for food and drinks. We ordered the banana crepe to share and I got a coffee while my wife ordered the pear juice. The pair juice comes from a bottle. The coffee was served in a small cup and was ok. I am used to drinking it with cream and sweetener. But Europeans don't have these items, so I just drank it with sugar. I think we waited almost 30 minutes before our food came out. Now, we only ordered crepes with bananas inside. Usually at the mall, it takes a few minutes to make crepes. I don't know how it took almost 30 minutes for them to make 1 item. Mind you, the place was not full when we came, so I don't understand how long we had to wait for our server to order our food and why it took so long for them to make our food. Once it finally came out, I thought the crepe was good, but not out of your mind fantastic. It's just basic tbh. Will I ever come back, probably not due to the wait time and the food wasn't all that great.

Winkel 43 is a legendary stop right on the corner of Westerstraat and Noordermarkt in the Jordaan,…read moreperfectly situated along the Prinsengracht canals and just a short walk from the Anne Frank House. While it functions as a cozy, traditional Dutch brown café, virtually everyone comes here for one main reason: the famous Dutch apple pie (*appeltaart*). It completely lives up to the reputation. Served warm with a massive dollop of fresh whipped cream, it's thick, perfectly spiced, and has an almost cake-like crust that sets it apart. Pairing a slice with a fresh mint tea is pretty much mandatory. Because of its status and location, it's almost always buzzing with people--especially on market days--but the staff manages the perpetual queue remarkably fast. Snagging a table on the outdoor terrace for some people-watching along the canal is hard to beat. Whether you're taking visitors around the neighborhood or just out exploring the Jordaan.

There was a long line and a pretty long wait when we went. The place was fully packed, with both…read moreindoor and outdoor seating. I'd say about 95% of the people were ordering the apple pie, so of course we had to get one to see what the hype was about. The apple pie is pretty unique, it's basically a big chunk of cooked apple topped with a sweet, crumbly cookie like crust. The flavor reminded me of those little brown biscuits you get as airplane snacks... basically Biscoff cookies. lol!!! Overall, you really taste the natural apple flavor along with that Biscoff like cookie flavor. The pie itself isn't very sweet, which I actually liked, but adding some whipped cream definitely brings up the sweetness and makes it even better. The setup is pretty straightforward: get in line, order and pay, pick up your food, then find your own seat. It's definitely a popular spot, so be prepared for the crowd and a bit of a wait.

Because it explicitly says no cash on the entrance! I can't stand bad yelpers. This place is terrific and if you want a nice breakfast or lunch in a casual and relaxed place literally within spitting distance of the Anne Frank House, this is it. They do have American pancakes but don't waste your time on those. Get one of their pancakes which are kind of like crepes but definitely a pancake. So good! Plus they have both gluten-free and vegan options as well. FOOD: The pancakes are amazing. I had a pastrami pancake (holiday special) and it was delicious. My wife had the honey and cheese with apples and that was delicious also. It was fun, different, and tasty all in one. SERVICE: Terrific. Great service and the portions are just right. You may not be totally stuffed, but you will be comfortably full and that's coming from a big guy. And like I said, can't believe they had gluten-free options! COST: A bit pricey but considering this is an unique experience, then totally worth it. Would definitely go again.

You can get sweet or savory pancakes, and unless you get the American style pancakes, their pancakes are like crepes. Light and thin. I got the spicy one with egg, chicken and spinach. It was tasty.

Would definitely try again.
