Visited the market on a Friday, it was not too crowed. A 10 minute walk from the Van Gogh Museum area. Market is delightful, many different vendors, art and food. If you are a firs time visitor to AMS for sure visit this local market. It's a nice break and all the vendors are charming and helpful. The young man selling the chocolate brownies, they are THE BEST EVER.

Visited this market a couple of times whilst we were in Amsterdam. Great to walk through end to end with lots to see. Great variety of stalls with all sorts to eat. Lovely fresh fish stalls that cook it to order as well.

Big, fun outdoor market. Check-out the Shwarma stalls and also go visit the stall selling brownies (excellent). Ex-pat American making his own dark chocolate brownies, really good!

I am grateful that everything in the sprawling downtown area of Amsterdam is within walking distance, including the Albert Cuyp Outdoor Market. We wanted to try the best Stroopwafels in Amsterdam (Rudi's), and we were not disappointed! We also enjoyed wandering through the length of the market, appreciating the other vendors and their varied offerings.

We visited on a cold wet Tuesday in January - so probably not representative of how the place really is. However, the market was fully operational and impressive with the variety of items for sale. The locals obviously purchase food and edibles there, and then there are stalls aimed at tourists. The food options were very varied, ranging from fruit and veg to fresh fish, artisan cheeses and even a stall specialising in game birds and meat. There were lots of hot food options also, obviously including the Dutch fries, which you just have to try! Along the outside of the market are some wonderful individual shops which would have occupied us far more if the weather had been kinder. Would definitely return

Heard about this market from virtually every guide to Amsterdam I looked at. Strangely smaller than expected. We visited after a morning at a nearby museum and thought we’d try out the street food for lunch. Not every stall or space was occupied, but we found enough to keep us happy. The grilled cheese sandwich place was really good as were the fries from the chap at the very end of the market. We couldn’t miss Rudi’s Stroop wafels and bought lots as gifts too. For us, the best and cheapest you’ll find. For the rest of the market, there are a few cheap souvenir shops which were good for bits and pieces and definitely the best prices for clog slippers (the airports prices were almost double). The cheese stalls were very well priced too and seemed more genuine to the more glossy branded cheese shops on the Damrak and in central Amsterdam. There are of course other stalls selling various other goods ranging from from toiletries to cheap clothes and household items. Overall a very nice experience which served its purpose. Definitely recommend.

Good market off the usual tourist routes with a selection of everything whether you're a local looking for fresh food or a stray tourist looking for an original souvenir. If you want an honest bite to eat in a proper Dutch cafe then try 'Cafe Koffiehuis "De Cuyp." (See picture)' It's definitely a locals place but the owner was really friendly and welcomes everyone. The food isn't flash nor expensive but, trust me, it's good. The apple pancake especially.

A plethora of stalls serving food, souvenirs, clothes, bags and nicknacks. We only purchased edibles starting with a workman favourite - the mackerel roll. Wandered along a bit and stopped for a homemade stroopwaffle. Since the weather was a bit cold & wet we then finished with a cone of frites (& mayo) to warm us up.

A mixture a stalls at this open air market. Easy to access via tram or metro. From souvenirs, jewellery, fabric, food, produce, clothing and much more this market has something for everyone. The area has lots of cafes and restaurants but there is a good selection of “local” food in the market itself. Not an essential must see in Amsterdam but it is worth a visit if you have time.

We had excellent pita and sticky stroopwaffelen here. Also bought a few souvenirs and the prices were a lot better than the gift shops in the town. Definitely worth a visit and easy to get to as it has it's own stop on the tram line number 4.
