Café de Prins

Across from the Westerkerk (Western Church) and the Anne Frank House, on the edge of the Jordaan, this cafe is surrounded by history. Although the Prins has retained its typical 'brown cafe' character, its kitchen has become one of its most important features in recent years. Stop by for beer, fondue and cheese plates, as well as sweet and cute mini-pancakes — poffertjes.

Loop 51

Loop 51 blends Amsterdam’s brunch culture with vinyl obsession. By day, sunlight floods this De Pijp corner as diners dig into buttermilk chicken waffles and spritzes, soundtracked by resident DJs spinning house and hip-hop. When the kitchen closes at 5pm, the space sheds its café vibe and tables make way for standing crowds, though the records keep playing. The menu walks the line between hearty (Nashville hot sliders) and fresh (shaved fennel salads), while the audiophile-grade sound system ensures music stays at the heart of the event. Come for pancakes, stay for the party.

Vascobelo V-bar Stadionplein

Vascobelo brings a slice of Belgian café culture to Amsterdam, serving award-winning single-origin coffees and a compact menu of homestyle dishes (think croque-monsieurs and seasonal soups). The airy space, dotted with cookbooks from nearby Scheltema bookstore, strikes a balance between Instagrammable decor and genuine comfort. The terrace tables soak up sun, while the marble bar tempts with house-selected wines. Staff pride themselves on friendly, efficient service, and prices stay surprisingly gentle for the city centre. Though the food selection is small, it’s well-executed — perfect for a leisurely lunch or coffee break without the bustle of tourist traps.
