We went to a few breakfast/brunch places in Amsterdam but this place was the best by some distance. It is a must visit while here. The service was excellent also.

Me and my partner visited for our birthdays
the service and food was outstanding, the food is fresh and tasty we had the waffle with fried chicken it was the best thing we’ve both tasted packing flavour and if you love hot sauce try it...complements the dish so well. Would definitely recommend to anyone local or coming to Amsterdam for a trip A*More

We came here on the first day of our trip and we had such a lovely meal that we came back twice more. It's in a lovely peaceful part of Amsterdam next to a quiet canal in what feels like a very authentic but off-the-beaten-track...area. The food was fantastic, and very good value. In particular, the Rasco was fantastic (especially with the glorious homemade hot sauce). The staff were lovely and the food didn't take much time to arrive at all. Would highly recommend.More

The food was absolutely delicious. I also ordered the Spicy Mary which had all the tasty flavours of a traditional Bloody Mary, but with a little bit more spice.

The best brunch spot in Amsterdam- we visited twice during our short stay! Friendly service and delicious food. We had the ‘All Around Carnivore’ both times as it was so good. Nothing to fault, just brunch perfection!!

On a recent visit to Amsterdam, my boyfriend and I found this place alongside a canal and decided to try it for brunch.
The menu is great with lots of choice and the service was extremely friendly and welcoming.
We ordered the fried cauliflower with...waffles and the eggs royale, both of which were excellent.
The hot sauce was also 10/10.
A great spot for a quick brunch. Would highly recommend!More
