Vlaamsch Broodhuys

This is a great breakfast and light lunch restaurant. We stayed at the Grand Hotel down the street and found this place to be a great alternative to the hotel breakfast.
The restaurant also serves great coffee and a great selection of bread. The coffee well brewed and is very flavorful. I could not stop eating bread with the chocolate spread.
The servers are very friendly and the restaurant has great big windows for people watching.

Entre deux visites, il est bon de trouver un endroit où se poser et manger quelque chose vite fait. C’est le seul endroit que nous ayons trouvé dans le coin qui rassemblait le vite fait et un peu sain et possibilité de s’asseoir.
Les pains grillés pour la plupart avec du fromage, sont servis sur une planche avec une sauce. Vous avez le choix du pain blanc ou gris. C’est bon mais c’est servi sans salade (à prendre en supplément) et ce n’est pas énorme comme portion. Les prix né sont pas vraiment donnés par rapport à la quantité.
Ils ont aussi des soupes, des salades, des sandwichs froids avec plus ou moins les mêmes ingrédients que les chauds…
Il y a aussi une boulangerie et des petits gâteaux, biscuits que vous pourrez emporter et manger plus tard pendant votre promenade au Parc Vondel non loin.
L’endroit est agréable, surfant sur la vague bois-​métal et plantes pour la décoration. L’accueil est sympathique aussi.

We discovered the bakerie on Van Woustraat 78 and have made it our morning treat while staying in the Pijp. Fabulous breads, wonderful tarts, and great coffee. WE are delighted!

I had the double espresso here and it was delicious and had a perfect strong bitter taste. The croissants (in which I had two of) were delicious and flaky as they should be, almost as authentic as the ones in Paris. The butter that comes on the side has a great taste and look. Definitely recommend this place if you are looking for an authentic breakfast place in Amsterdam!

This place has some goods, and some bads.
Let’s start with the negatives: it took quite some time untill we were seated at our table, which wasn’t even properly cleaned. The time between ordering and serving out of the food also took quite a long time, and it wasn’t even that crowded. And finally, the prices are high in comparison to what you get.
Then for the positives: the quality of the food is pretty good, honemade bread with some classics like steak tartare, vitello tonato etcetera. The beverages we had were also of high quality, good coffee and tasty smoothies. The staff –besides being slow– are really friendly. Overall the atmosphere was good and locationwise it’s walking distance from some big museums.
One last note: you can only pay with ‘plastic’ (debet– or creditcard), no cash. Not a problem for us, but I reckon that some tourist may encounter this as a problem.

We had sandwiches and coffee here and they were fine. While the food was not revelatory, not every meal has to be. I would definitely stop here again in the future for a quick lunch or dinner, whether it’s this location or anywhere else in the Netherlands. Pretty good.

i absolutely love this place. their products are excellent. you can their bread, applebutter and nut paste at the bakery. if you prefer, you can also sit down and have lunch. when i am with friends, we usually have the lunch for 2 option, which is easily enough for 3. salad, hummus, salmon, raisonbread, yum yum. When i am alone i like to have a bot of tea, and sometimes one of those amazing little fruit tarts. i especially adore the prune, and, when in season, the rasberry ones. A german friend swore their chocolate cake is almost as good as in Bavaria. the There Japanese inspied soups are also very, very good. All ingredients are always top quality and they tell you were everything comes from. store on the Haarlemmerstraat can get very crowded, which is why I prefer this one, close to Vondelpark. very friendly waiting staff and a nice collection of newspapers and magazines. no wifi though, although i was told they are considering it. This place costs a bit more, but it’s one of the best in the city.

I only went here after a suggestion of a friend after the original place we’d meet didn’t serve anything for lunch that either of us liked.
We arrived at peak hour and weren’t in the mood to sit at a ‘communal’ table as we wanted to have a fairly intimate conversation. Luckily it didn’t take long for a two seater to become available.
The choice is wide enough, fresh juices, smoothies, teas, etc for drinks and all sorts of warm or cold types of sandwiches.
The waiter was very polite and precise. It took us a fairly long time to decide what to order but never got the feeling we were being rushed due to the fact it was peak hour.
Thought the sandwich itself wasn’t very big it satisfied the appetite I had at the moment. And the taste was good.
There are several branches of Vlaamsch Broodhuys and I assume they all have the same quality.
Due to the communal table (s) the place is perfectly suitable to go by yourself and not feel ‘odd’ sitting alone at a table for two or more.
