Best coffee spots in the Jordaan and Amsterdam center
A list of coffee places in Amsterdam center and Jordaan for your cup of black gold, some new, some old. You get off the train at Amsterdam Central Station and the (catering) world is at your feet. It's a shame to just end up at the first coffee chain (we won't mention any names)... Here are the real local toppers.
Who doesn't know them; the delicious Selfie mirror photos in front of the door at Saint-Jean and the now famous cruffin. Years of preparation went into the opening of Saint-Jean and you can see and notice that. The beans are optimally roasted and have a strong (!) flavour, the tastiest vegan snacks to go with them. So I leave the house as a happy person. Read more about Saint Jean
Newest member of the bunch. Luuks Coffee is a striking appearance that you can quickly spot from the Noordermarkt. The dark blue painted building with striking white letters suggests where you should go; with Luuk.
The tent has nice to-go coffee if you want to cross the market, but also a few seats inside where you can enjoy people watching from the window. In the summer you can sit outside on the bench. Luuk also has a blend for home use, if you like the coffee.
Coffee on the go sounds wonderful, but if you want to visit so many nice locations then you need one speedy need a companion to take you everywhere. And that's where our friends come from Biro look around the corner. They bring comfort, speed and it is also a sustainable means of transport. That's all? No, of course not! It's nice that you can park almost anywhere. Do it neatly, as it should be (in the compartments and preferably with your nose towards the wall or waterfront) and not on the sidewalk! Coffee in hand and go!
Just opened in the fall of 2023 is Nous. A coffee shop where you would like to return. On the edge of the Jordaan - just out of the hustle and bustle - Nous sits on a corner of the Haarlemmerplein. This light business focuses on good things quali and customer friendliness. Just as you would expect from any coffee shop. Not in the mood for coffee? Then try the delicious matcha or the homemade lemonade that changes color in a very casual way. Nous coffee store is new but already full of regular customers. And that is not without reason.
So much (too much?) choice in the Nine Streets and that is precisely why we are highlighting just one: Screaming beans. Always a good spot while strolling through the 9 streets. Once again with our own coffee blend. At Screaming beans you can sit comfortably in the somewhat dark, narrow building. The coffee is full of flavor and the espresso is nice and spicy, so you can enjoy it all day long.
