Great place along the Amstel river on the Weesperzijde side. Possibly my favourite place for coffee (either take-out stroling along the Amstel river or inside with a lovely piece of apple pie).
It has a great terrace along the Amstel (during the summer, in wintertime it closed and during Christmas time there is a huge Christmas tree filling up the terrace), but also inside there is plenty of seating. Enjoy your coffee, breakfast, lunch or dinner here anytime!

If you like chicken, than this is THE place to go. Nothing else than chicken, but prepared to perfection and very favorable prices (think €14 for half a chick, dinner for two including sides will cost you roughly €60,-) with some great sides and lovely beers on tap
