AlAnoud A AlGhunaimAugust 10, 2015One of my favorites😍 so calm and beautiful.. Don't miss their chicken wings👌
Jonathan ClarkOctober 7, 2014Wonderful Art Deco interior with original wall pairings & light fittings. One of my all-time favourite spots in Amsterdam. Sadly it's expensive & service is terribly slow otherwise it would be perfect
Jim A.October 25, 2015Really nice art-nouveau decorated restaurant in the mid center of Amsterdam! Drinks a bit over-priced. But hey, that's what you get on Leidseplein. Have fun!
Gonny Zwaag, van derFebruary 27, 2019Good for meetings with business contacts, or read newspapers (provided). Bar closes around 22:30h. Not the best coffee - a Starbucks is nearby.
Fabiano WaewellNovember 4, 2018We had the Steak and the Breakfast set. Very nice and fresh! The decor is a plus, beautiful place!
Marc MutsaersNovember 7, 2015Carpaccio, risotto and creme brûlée as part of theater menu is an excellent choice at very competitive price.
Peter RobinettOctober 4, 2011The breakfast brunch is very expensive but decent. What you're really paying for is the fantastic ambiance. Kick it up a notch by going on Sunday for the jazz brunch.
Josef ChrpaApril 5, 2018Suprisingly good burger and fries! Defenetely recommended. And of course unique atmosphere!
Bernard OtesanyaSeptember 26, 2015Great atmosphere , an excellent buffet breakfast is served in n art decor setting
Nice cafe! With art deco style! And the sunday brunch is famous! I can't wait for the beautiful terrace to open!
Simon SpanswickSeptember 21, 2018Fabulous decoration harking back to the 20s. A place to see and be seen.
- Renate MengelersNovember 20, 2022Great service and friendly staff. It was pouring when I arrived,got a little Something to Dry my glasses 🤩
Brett ElliottJuly 20, 2022A beautiful place but the Amsterdam burger was not that good though it does look good in the picture.
Brooke LouiseJanuary 19, 2020It's been said before but the struggle with any kind of service is real. Decor gorgeous.- Daniel BasteiroJanuary 8, 2011Perfect for a glass of red wine or a coffee. Select atmosphere and a nice place to stop for a chat or romantic moment!
Mohammed Bin MansourOctober 3, 2019The place is awesome and the service it was great, but the coffee I don't like it.
S.B.B.July 24, 2011The sparkling water is very good. So is the lunch; a bit overpriced, but the terrace and the wait staff is lovely.
Andrius BaranauskasFebruary 24, 2020Terrible service. Although the place was more or less empty, we were refused the window table as it had space for 4 people. After I explicitly asked for over hard eggs, got them runny. Nice interior!
- Joseh AmaralAugust 29, 2012Beautiful cafe....food is ok , waiters are nice but the service is below average. A very negative point is that the place is full of mice. You clearly see them playing around the tables.
Derk de VriesDecember 11, 2016Service is fine. Food also. But go there just to enjoy the beutiful interior.
Alexander LobovJuly 2, 2016Poor service, inappropriate music, dirty and the mice have the run of the place. Sad - such a beautiful space gone to waste.
Mark McArthur-ChristieSeptember 10, 2010Stephen's vodka martini. An absolute (or even Absolut if you don't like Grey Goose) must.
Mitch MitchellNovember 4, 2010Expensive breakfast, but worth visiting at least once while you're in town to enjoy the space.
Ioannis-Ermis KalantonisMarch 1, 2014Where is the famous Burger Americain???? Bring it back ASAP!!!!
Niels de J. (SU 3)August 3, 2018We waited 15 minutes for our drinks and when they came the waitress forgot one coffee and my beer wasn’t cold!
- Mario de LimaOctober 22, 2022Location, restaurant, service and food presentation were good. The food just tasted bland.
DennisDecember 27, 2010Classic grand cafe, nice place to read the papers, don't expect anything special here.
Chris HammondMay 13, 2010Such a bad place on every level. Nothing changes, it's been like this for years. Leave it for the weekend visitors who accidentally stayed here.
