As Amsterdam is our first holiday giveaway it's only right to start from their for our first Listed Journal!
Home to beautiful canals, world-class museums, Ajax FC, a vibrant cycling culture, and a famously liberal and tolerant atmosphere, known for it's cannabis coffee shops, and Red Light District, Amsterdam is full of fun things to do! Here are some gems we'd highly recommend!
Apple Pie at Winkel 43
If you like apple pie you HAVE to try Winkel 43, Known for its warm Dutch apple pie (the crust is 10/10), we'd highly recommend passing by if you've got some time (The queue tends to be pretty long but you can order and eat outside if not too cold)
Address: Noordermarkt 43, 1015 NA Amsterdam, Netherlands
Coffee shops
What's Amsterdam without a coffee shop?! There's so many to choose from but a particular fav of ours is Tha Dogg House owned by the one and only Snoop Dogg!
Address: Marnixstraat 333, 1016 TC Amsterdam, Netherlands
Bakery / Cookies - Van Stapele Koekmakerij
I'm not even a cookie person but my girlfriend forced me to go here and I must admit they are hands down the best cookies i've ever tasted! Think about it as a boujee version of Ben's Cookies!
Address: Rokin 17, 1012 KK Amsterdam, Netherlands
Chips
No this is not a typo .. Amsterdam do the BEST chips in the world! Manneken Pis Damrak is the most popular and it's only a couple of minutes walk to Amsterdam Centraal station so it's perfect as a pre flight bite. Queues are always super long but they move quicky!
Address: Manneken Pis Damrak, Damrak 41, 1012 LK Amsterdam, Netherlands
Mr Porter Restaurant
Not a lof of people know that the online fashion marketplace Net-A-Porter/Mr Porter also have restaurants in Amsterdam, Barcelona and London! Great atmosphere and great food, we'd specifcally recommend the Mr Porter focaccia (they normally give this to you as a free starter) the mac n cheese with caulliflower and their ribeye steak!
Address: Spuistraat 175, 1012 RR Amsterdam, Netherlands
Chun Cafe
Breakfast
Greenwoods Singel is hands down our favourite breakfast spot in Amsterdam! Get their ealry to avoid the long queues. Their french toast is amazing and their full english breakfast is the perfect way to start a day in Dam!
Address: Singel 103, 1012 VG Amsterdam, Netherland
