Scandinavian Embassy.

This is one of our absolute fav cafes from around the world and so happy it lives thought the years, always great to come back, a staple of Amsterdam city breaks and our morning routines. The best cardamom buns and the whole experience of seeing & smelling them being done. Perfect for the morning run as well.

I had another idea in mind, and I was disappointed. Although the coffee is good, the rest of the food menu is not appetizing at all. We ordered a cinnamon bun and a rye bread with cheese, and we did not like either the bun or the toast. The bun was extremely sweet, and the cheese rye bread was bland. Only the coffee is worth it. The establishment is very small, and there are too many people and noise.

Cozy little coffee place! I took an oat cappuccino with a Cardamon bun (vegan). Cardamon bun was so light and fluffy it melted on my tong reminding me of a cotton candy texture. It gets quite busy on weekends but you can always go for a to go option. Those buns are absolutely worth a wait in a queue!

Scandinavian Embassy combines a relaxed, rustic interior with serious coffee credentials. The baristas know their stuff, the vibe is peaceful, and the back garden room is a hidden gem. Great place to slow down and appreciate a well-crafted brew.

A perfect spot for a quick coffee break. I had a macchiato and sat outside watching the cyclists go by. It was an incredible coffee and a pleasant space to rest my legs. I had the one gluten-free item, it was a sweet and chocolatey, and very different from any dessert I had previously. The coffee was just superb.

Flat white with smooth and rich texture. Coffee has nutty and spicy aftertaste, distinct despite 180 ml cup used.

Went for Semla, got the Semla. Thanks to the waitress who understood my desperation for the Semla, and made sure the last two remaining got to me and my partner. It was really good, the almond paste is perfect and the bun with cardamom. I would appreciate one option with jam too. The place is quite popular, so it might be difficult to get a seat.

We had to stop here for Fika. Walked in, had a wonderful experience. Even though we were seated at the bar (with the three of us in line), it feels very cozy and comfortable. The staff is very friendly and the cinnamon buns are truly the same delicious taste as in Sweden last summer. I ordered a Cappuccino, and one of the waitresses made this beautiful decoration. Almost a shame to drink this piece of art.

During a recent trip to Amsterdam, I stopped into this coffee shop on two occasions. Both times, I enjoyed an Americano, which was really tasty. During my second visit, I ordered Skyr and granola. It was a bit pricey at almost 10 Euro, so I probably wouldn't order again. The space itself is cute, with seating for maybe 10-15 people. The staff were also very friendly and outgoing. FYI: this is a no laptop/tablet spot, so plan accordingly!

Delicious and strong . Quaint and cute inside. Staff is super nice. Starts getting busy around 12:30 - 13:30.

Absolutely delicious coffee in De Pijp. Stopped by for a take-away cappuccino and it was busy but the line moved quickly. I would give this cute cafe another go!

The cozy space invites you in with tantalizing bakery views and the fresh cinnamon wafting outside. The staff are a super friendly bunch taking great pride in preparing your drinks/food with a lot of tender love and care. The mushroom eggs are drenched in a blanket of butter sauce and wrapped with home made rye bread baked right here. Hearty, delicious and warms my soul. Thank you!!

Simply delightful is all I can say. Yes, we did have to wait quite awhile outside in line, in the rain but the place and food made up for it. I've never had cake quite like that before and the coffee was . Everything we ate was good. Service was a bit chaotic but also very friendly. Everything was clean and the atmosphere was chic. Overall: would definitely be back if we lived nearby.

Ok ok ok Although I am American, but I adopted the easy Dutch lifestyle and yet, I hate lines, I mean HATE, did I say hate? I mean hate hate especially when I am hungry in the morning. The decor is minimal and a bit cold, the coffee is great, the food is ok. The staff: very sweet and nice, easy on the eyes. The toilet: clean, nothing extraordinary. Should I recommend, hmmmm not if you don't like lines and waiting. I understand that it is because the place is small, but it is not for people like me. Not recommend.

This is a small coffee shop with a very interesting menu and great coffee. The stuff is very nice and friendly. Deserts are also pretty good. Very popular with locals and worth trying. To be honest things look better than they taste but everything is good.

Amazing coffee and attractive well thought out plates of food. Perhaps to focussed on style and not substance.... still worth a visit though.

Pretty delicious. Small space, but somehow people managed to find seating on a Monday morning without waiting for too long. Came in solo and got a flatwhite and the eggs/salmon on a bread combo. Flat white was okay (not the best one I've had but still decent) and the food delicious. Would definitely be back!

We came here upon the recommendation of citizenm (hotel) where we were staying. It was super crowded and we were invited to share a table in the back by the clothes, which was no problem. We ordered food from the breakfast menu. The salmon on bread was delightful and the cinnamon roll was sticky and perfect. I lived in Sweden, so I feel like I know what it's supposed to taste like! I loved how the server helped us to determine what coffee we should order by chatting with us and determining what we would like. The service was excellent and I totally felt like a valued customer.

Great breakfasts & coffee. My cinnamon roll was tasty, but slightly under-baked. The Gravadlax breakfast was delicious!

Excellent pour over coffee!! Simple breakfast of excellent oatmeal made to order, poached egg with home cured salmon and excellent cinnamon bun!

Hypster, well.. it is in De Pijp and at first look a bit scunky but do not let the first impression stop you. Very basic "Scandinavian" wooden look and feel with a big coffee area in the middle by the entrance. Wide window in the front facing the park and glass wall in the back to a very cute inner court. Perfect spot to taste a Swedish style coffee, yes, they do drink good coffee there, and taste some delicatessen like pastry or simple great brunch dishes. The menu is really short but indeed good. Maybe not for everyone if you are not into fish and bio food. My poached eggs on dark rye bread with salmon were outstanding!!! Sears are scattered around, mainly stules with a bench outside on the walkway and few tables in the back. Just brunch or coffee while you stroll around is perfect. No juice, no beer. Just coffee. The cakes and pastries, baked on site are cinnamon deliciousness :) Free WiFi.

As far as coffee goes, this place is my favorite spot in Amsterdam thus far. Recommended to us by a barista friend, we popped in. It was the perfect place to warm up and enjoy a high quality coffee. The staff was really warm and appreciated their attention to detail. Would highly recommend this spot if you're looking for coffee in the Amsterdam area.

If you like coffee, this is one of the best coffee places in Amsterdam. Coffee beans are imported from Drop cafe (in Stockholm) and Danmark. Fresh cinnamon buns baked every day. So, a Fika is possible ;-) Staff is friendly and mostly swedish. If you like to taste a bit of the quartier latin spirit of de Pijp and love coffees, definitely a place to visit. Do note: not suitable for large groups.

Best coffee in The Netherlands, amazing cinnamon buns as well. super friendly staff, worth the wait.

Have I died and gone back to heaven? It really felt like I did. Let's start with the decor of the place, it was contemporary and clean with a regular Scandinavian feel, not too fussy no frills it felt more like a home kitchen in Copenhagen or Oslo, love how everyone there was originally from Scandinavia. I admire places that are truly authentic. The restaurant is always packed for breakfast and rightfully so. We decided to go here to celebrate our three year anniversary, we wanted to eat at three different places in one day:) so our first stop was the infamous Scandinavian Embassy. I had heard/read a lot of mixed reviews about the place. But most of the negative ones were to do with the prices, now speaking of the prices I felt it was only fair to charge that amount if everything you're serving is high quality. Which they most definitely were! So no complaints there... And everything is cooked right in front of you with simple and high quality ingredients, their coffee flies in from Denmark people! I'm sure their other ingredients come from Scandinavian countries as well. THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS... had their poached eggs with rye bread and my husband had the same but with salmon... Beautifully plated and their Flat White is to die for!! Since we are suckers for dessert we really wanted to try their cinnamon buns but the first batch was already sold out and it was only 10am, the second batch was going to take around 40 minutes to an hour and we couldn't wait that long so we decided to go for the carrot cake instead. Which was also quite delicious but I still want to go back for the cinnamon buns. Been dreaming about them ever since :) My experience there was quite nice, I enjoyed the food, the customer service was on point. I would recommend this place a 100%.

The coffee and the crew = everything is like it was supposed to be. I like the aproach and their opening towards creating a perfect environment for chill out coffee. And the cappuccino..let's put it like this: I usually order two in a row, that good I think it is. Btw they dont serve it with sugar, part of educating the public how to savour a coffee and her entire pallete of aromas. Bring ur own if u know u're addicted to sugar. They serve also food, fancy brunchy really good food. During weekends the place is packed so maybe try going there early (10am) or after 2pm. So, I love Scandinavian Embassy

Great little breakfast spot in the south of Amsterdam. Thought the menu doesn't have a ton of options, the ones it does have are great. I had the Gravlax (salmon, poached egg, spinach, etc.) and it was perfectly done, great flavor, filling and the perfect start to the day with one of their smooth flat whites. There's a combo of communal tables, individual tables, and bar seating. It can get a little cramped to walk around during rush times so get there early because it's worth it. The kitchen is open and visible to nearly everyone, and because of the size of the place, it feels like you're having breakfast in some random Swede's house which was cozy and relaxing. =)

One of the best specialty coffee in town. The menu is interesting and fusionesque :) with nice breakfast options, like salmon with poached eggs, great sweets. Big common tables, nordic simple interior, relaxed athmosphere, unless when is totally crowded. Good service too.

Loved the entire experience of this place. At first glance, from the outside, it looked like a hair salon. Something about the sign. But anyway...it was great. The cooking area was right at the counter so if you sit at the counter, the action is right in front of you. Everything is made to order (except the pastries, which looked amazing but unfortunately did not par take...next time). The other seating is nice and casual, but limited, so early bird catches the seat. Ordered the eggs/salmon. Presentation was pretty and the ingredients unique. Never had sheep yogurt before. Had the pour over coffee. I prefer a deeper tasting coffee with more depth. The coffee they have is lighter and fruity to the taste. It was nice to people watch here too. The entire street before getting to this place has a bunch of cafes and shops too. On Eerste Van Der Helst Straat.

What a massive disappointment. Slow service, absolutely tasteless coffee, a lecture when we asked for sugar, "cinnamon" buns that are hard as a rock and only taste of cardamom. No music so ambience was silent and awkward. Decor looks unfinished and is very shabby round the edges. Staff were pretentious, rude and unwelcoming. What on earth is all the fuss about? Went to Boca's up the road after and it was great. Fresh, friendly service and tasty food and drinks. Avoid this overhyped mess.

Scandinavian Embassy is for the real scandinavian and knowledge people who wants to know the traditional food and coffee tastes. It's an esthetic café for some breakfast, a cup of coffee, some lunch or for some snacks. But they've also other cold drinks for the non-addictive coffee drinkers, like lemonade or cucumber drinks. The interior is very fashionable and well-setted like a normal hipster space. It is minimalized with wood and is built in every single detail. The space is running by two friendly scandinavian people and you can take your sit wherever you want. I would like to come back very soon!

I loved this place. It is a perfect spot for a late brunch on the weekends. The whole experience was great. Seeing the food being prepared in front of me us a plus. Not only because we can learn some kitchen tricks but also it is a perfect opportunity to talk to the chefs and staff. Seats by the window and outside seats profit from a great view of the square. Coffee was superb. I had espresso as well poured coffee. They actually suggest some coffee pairing with our choices. Menu options are typically Scandinavian. Poached eggs with salmon are one of the most popular ones. Not only the taste incredibly good but they are also visually tasty. Almost a piece of art. The only ifs I have are related with service. Staff seems to be not well coordinated and a bit lost sometimes slowing down the service. Perhaps due to their lack of experience. But it is compensated with quality of their products and relaxing atmosphere. I will definitely come back to taste their other menu choices.

"Full circle"... November 2012, what's that, a yelp burger tour? Interesting, but what's yelp? That night the burger crew tried out the burgers Cafe Kostverloren. I had no idea what I was in for. Later on, I remember describing yelpies as "expat meetup" on acid. . If you've ever sat across from Dennis M. (on cava and calvados) and AJ A. (sober), trust me, you'll understand. After that first yelp encounter, there was no going back and eventually I ended up replacing the expat meetups with yelp event completely. Sure meeting new people was fun. But writing reviews on yelp? Don't know 'bout that. I get more joy from creating stuff rather than critiquing other people's creations. Anyways, I approached writing reviews as an opportunity to practice my writing and post my food pics. Also, I'm not gonna lie, I was searching for those extra likes. With my insatiable hunger for likes, facebook was not enough any more...like me...love me...validate me... Excited, my 1st review. Kostverloren's wild boar burgers. But in my enthusiasm, and much to my brother's amusement, I had mistakenly written wild bear instead of boar. Fast forward 1 year, November 2013 and I've acquired the much coveted elite badge. In order to commemorate this, I met Flip, yelp's bestest CM ever, Jeweetzeluf!, last Friday afternoon for lunch at Scandinavian Embassy. Soso lobie!! We were treated to the full lunch menu, no holding back. The starter included cured wild bear sausage. Yep, you heard me right, and this time I really do mean wild BEAR! By the way, it was a bit weird feeding Java, the cutest sausage house dog with his Mohawk hair lock, pieces of wild bear. Don't know, but to me somehow a wiener dog eating wild bear defies the laws of nature. They sort of have a thing for unusual meats here. Besides wild bear, we sank our teeth into moose and reindeer. And it was all good! Even better, you don't have to feel guilty for eating Mogli, Rudolf the rednose reindeer and Goofy (yep, Goofy is a moose!) because it's all sustainably sourced meat that would've otherwise gone to waste. It's the circle of life... L.O.V.E.D the starter with the cured meats and amazing espresso butter on sourdough and Danish cheese. Also loved the cracker that followed, served with an interesting creamy dollop that tasted like dulce the leche but with a cheesiness to it. I want a bucket of that and a spoon, please! I'm not sure the mushroom soup completely worked. It was light and a bit sour, but perhaps it's because I never had this combination before. I think I was missing the fattiness of cream or crème fraiche. Also, I think the soup lacked some more umami like some truffle. Maybe, even some miso would've been brilliant? I know it sounds weird, but I think might have worked in this soup. Like a hot Scandi Asian fusion. Other than that, very satisfying lunch! And despite the minimalistic Scandinavian interior, it felt really cosy in here. Also, pleasant lighting for making photographs. I kinda regretted not bringing my real camera :( So, after not having shielded away from serving some of Disney's most memorable characters on a wooden platter, who's next ? Mickey? * P.S. If Santa didn't bring you presents this year, you know why...

Why have I waited so long to actually go to the place I was the first to know about??? I saw the Scandinavion Embassy coming for months, followed the renovation and saw the guys painting the place. It veryyy close to my house that's why. And still, when it finally opened there was always an excuse not to go. Now I finally went to have lunch and I'm sooo glad I did. Imagine if I would have waited even longer! The boys here absolutely know their coffee. It is amazing. And the food! Wow, amazing as well. I absolutely loved my Scandinavian style poached eggs. They were like a Swedish version of eggs benedict and instead of Hollandaise sauce there was a sauce made of goat's yoghurt. It was awesome, and the eggs came of this sort of rye bread, so good! The portion was so perfect for me, maybe a little small for a dude but I would recommend you just have a pastry afterwards then. There is much more I want to try. And the menu also changes quite regularly I saw on the FB page, so always a good reason to come back. The prices are not cheap but not very expensive either, especially not when you taste what you get. Worth every euro. The guys are also very friendly and I recommend that you will let them advise you about the food and the coffee to pair with it. This place is a new favorite of mine for sure!

Scandinavian Embassy is a place where great coffee meets simple but delicious food. True scandinavian menu with reindeer, fermented herring, strong Danish cheese and rye bread. And the prices are friendly. I tried my old-time favourite: salt cured salmon with poached eggs, which were verrrry good. And the friendly guys behind the counter serve one of the best flat whites in Amsterdam. What more to say? Just go and try yourself!

Poached Egg on rye bread with yoghurt caviar. Doctor Cluck's verdict: Suicide Bomb Taste Explosion!! The two poached eggs were perfectly cooked and the light yogurt sauce complemented the bitterness of the dripping egg yolk. It was served gourmet style with bits of leak and pepper on the side of the plate. When you cut the eggs, the egg yolk pauses before it comes dripping out; perfect poaching technique. I do not fancy seafood that much, and I requested the yoghurt sauce without the caviar. The cook came to me running, convincing me this was his signature dish, he'd been working on for 4 months. The caviar in the dish is not visible; the subtle taste difference it makes is delicate, but it is noticable. Superb execution by the chef!!

Nice concept. Okay, the coffee. Incredible. I mean, come on. No bite. Smooth as you can imagine. Perfect flavor. The single brew is amazing. No wonder there's a trophy in there for world cup brewing. Cool guys. I had granola for breakfast. It was good. Boyfriend had poached egg and salmon - it looked lekker. I will come back. It's just missing a tiny something. Maybe one warm meal for vegetarians. But overall, cool spot.

Wow. Scandinavian embassy really knows what they are doing, and uniquely executes excellence! Committed to creating the best dishes in taste, health, and presentation, the two gentlemen who run this establishment succeed beyond measure. It is clear how they both are so passionate about their craft, as the chef explained thoroughly how he made his exquisite poached egg dish. As he said, this dish may sound simple, but is true perfection. The eggs - cooked just right, and wonderfully presented atop a special bread and yogurt-caviar spread - making the most delightful combination. He also made us a reindeer/bear wrap - another fantastic creation. Perfected in a way that we could appreciate the taste of the game, but not be overwhelmed by it's sole flavor. Fantastic! Nicholas. Ranked 13th in the world coffee roaster - I can see why. Let them tell you how to have your coffee. It is definitely worth it. Make sure when you come, you allow the extra time for him to carefully prepare each dish, and for you to savor each and every wonderful bite. We also had the Rubarb soda - freshly squeezed juice always quenches my thirst. All in all, I highly recommend this new and blooming place. The prices are affordable and definitely worth the special treat.

This sweet little cafe was a real find. Homemade kombucha, healthy yet tasty porridge and special Scandi treats. It's in a beautiful neighborhood in Amsterdam away from the tourist crush. Some communal tables made it fun to sit with locals or fellow travelers. Highly recommend this place if you want healthy, tasty food and friendly service.

At last, we made it to the Scandinavian Embassy! I thought it'd be pretentious because of the flash-crazy website (please redo!), but the vibe is actually very down to earth. My boyfriend is Danish and speaks Swedish, so he chatted with the chef and they were reminiscing about different traditions from their childhoods. We had the tasting plate for two followed by a plate he put together for us. The tasting plate had Danish and Norwegian cheese, smoerebroed, salmon, jam, sausage... it was great, unique flavors, and light! It also came with excellent pour-over coffee. Since we were still hungry, we asked what else he could make and he brought us out homemade sourdough with cabbage, smoked deer heart, lingon jam, and a couple other toppings. Bold but nice combination! I think the waitress told us his dad had shot a deer and they smoked it? I'd like to go back and try more of the menu, especially the coffee menu, since fika is an important Swedish past time :)

I love the concept and vibe here. I came out with Dutchman to feel out Scandinavian Embassy. I loved the ginger tea. Dutchman was not a fan of their filter coffee. Filter coffee does not work for everyone. So next time it is probably smart to let him stick to what he knows best. I think the only downer about this place is the space, it felt a bit tight up in there, due to it being small and crowded. Also the food menu was not visible. Even though it appeared that they were serving poach egg all day, I think the menu should be visible. Well although Dutchman was not feeling the place, I still look forward to checking them out again.

The kids behind the counter make visiting this place an absolute joy! They love what they do here, be it simply coffee, a light meal or even something more elaborate! If you can, nab a spot at the counter so you can watch them at work. The last time I was here, I sat drooling whilst they iced a delcious looking carrot cake! For breakfast, you must try the buckwheat porridge. Since the menu changes regularly, you might have to request it. When you do, order it with the lingonberry jam and goats milk yoghurt, because yum yum, a million times yum! For lunch, any of their poached egg set ups, be it cured meats and sausages (duck, moose, reindeer) or salt cured salmon, it's all amazing! For snacks at the bar (all of the sweets), yes. A thousand times yes. The little special scrolls of delight they create. Oh gahd. You can't stop at just one. Now coffee.. I've been known to walk away having had 2 with breakfast. It's that good. They've also become less regimented with their rules of adding sugar (thank god) and for this alone, it's worth a visit! Lastly dinner? Well that's still to come. I caught wind they're planning to do a private dining shell-fish special! Yes please, my friends and I are definitely coming for that!

Great coffee! Barely open for a year, and they have already gotten attention from various newspapers. Their selection by Esquire as the best coffee place definitely has some serious foundation. Very hip, and somewhat unique in the time of so many new and unique places. I would suggest to pay their WC a visit, if you cannot grasp what I am saying just by seeing the super cool dog almost immediately upon entering. I mean, she really owns the place :) Pastry, food, but mainly COFFEE. PLEASE, have their coffee :) Hurry to check it out before they start their renovation in less than a week! But do not fear, they will be back soon, and I am sure still great at what they do. And a public thank you to Sarah, who took me here barely a week after they opened.

I had Scandinavian Embassy on my to do list for some time now and a few weeks ago I finally managed to find the time to pop by. I had heard the talk that there was finally a place that takes coffee seriously, can make great coffee and also deliver some delicious food. The location is a bit out of the way for me (around Sarpathipark) as I am usually either confined to the airport or Amsterdam Zuid for meetings when visiting Amsterdam. The area is however lovely so can understand why they set up shop here. When I entered I was promptly met by a cute little dog, one of the owners (Rikard) has a tiny little dog that will happily stare at you in an attempt to get some food from you. The second thing I noticed was a familiar face behind the counter, Nicolas who used to work at one of my local favorites cafes in Stockholm (Drop Coffee) was now one of the people running this place. I then immediately knew I was good hands when it comes to coffee. Nicolas is one of the top baristas in the world so I fully trusted him to make me some coffee. When I was there they had a wide selection of coffees from some of my favorite Scandinavian roasters like Danish Coffee Collective, Norwegian Tim Wendelboe and Swedish Drop Coffee. I sampled several of the Kenyans and they were awesome! Food wise there was also a clear Scandinavian touch to the menu and a lot of the things sounded great. I tried some of the pastries as well as the food (wild boar sausage as well as poached eggs). In general high quality food, made with carefully sourced and selected ingrendients. The design is also clearly inspired by Scandinavia and for me it looks really great and of course familiar so not sure how the locals like it but for me great. Price wise it may be slightly more expensive than many other cafes but talking value for money this is still a bargain. I will be back as often as I can.

Santa Claus after a hard days work on the 25th of December when he returns home is often asked by his wife, "did it rain dear?" Which brings me to the subject of this review. Where else in Amsterdam can you have Reindeer on the menu? Smoked shoulder of Reindeer, combined with leek, garlic, potatoes, horseradish. The Shallow Man strongly recommends trying the poached eggs on delicious Danish Rye bread one of my absolute favorites, I'd also suggest combining this with the gravad lax (salt cured salmon) which is one of their specialities. As if the above wasn't spectacular enough, they also have some of the best coffee ever tasted by the Shallow Man. Everything served there is homemade. If you have a sweet tooth, try the carrot cake, so good that it's a sin. Five well deserved stars for the Scandinavian Embassy.

This place has the perfect flat white! The are absoultely friendly and the service is fast too. Lively place with a lot of people and some music. The park opposite is always an excuse to take the coffee and lay down in the grass

We went straight to this little gem after we checked into Sir Albert. I must say their daily set menu was great value for a weekend brunch. It comes with a good choice of starter, main and proper drip coffee all for less than €20. Their coffee was prepared by a pretty blonde barista with an attitude, her technique is so perfected and confident to a point that it seems a little causal - nice Scandinavian touch to the process. Great value and highly recommended if you are visiting Amsterdam.

Grabbed a quick coffee to go from here, but I really liked the ambiance. Simple and clean, it seems like the perfect place to set up your laptop and get work done. All the coffees are of very high quality and all the pastries are as well. I tried their special roast of the day (I think it was Kenyan) which was pricey and fancy but easily the best coffee I'd had in my time in Amsterdam. Being a coffee snob, it was totally worth it. My friend and I split something cinnamony and gluten-free and it was surprisingly good. I'm usually skeptical of gluten-free items, but I couldn't tell at all. Come for 5 minutes or 5 hours - you're guaranteed a solid cup of coffee and some delicious pastries to boot.

Too busy and they don't care about Corona. No distance! They don't care. Full with people everyday

Ambience is nice enough.Staff are nice enough. The breakfast menu is limited and as the name suggests, breakfast is Scandinavian, with four options. The service was EXTREMELY slow. After 25 of ordering, the poached eggs weren't ready...... this is their only cooked breakfast dish. We won't be back.

Man, what a mixed bag. Pros: Absolutely magnificent cinnamon buns. Pray you get there when they're fresh from the oven and not already gobbled up by other patrons. Cons: Coffee and food items (other than cinnamon buns) were good (not excellent) but pricey, and we would not return for these. The staff makes you feel like an inconvenience - you know, once they finally acknowledge you.

My favorite coffee place in Amsterdam. Sometimes the people are a little bit slow, but I can handle. Especially I love their muesli with goat yoghurt and their delicious coffee flavors.

Really cool and quiet atmosphere plus good simple but really well designed dishes. Exactly what you will expect from a hipster coffee place :)

Awesome breakfast and ambiance. As a designer myself I really appreciated the decor and natural tones through out the restaurant. I visited on a Sunday morning to get my grub on before a flight later in the afternoon. The Swedish meatballs were delicious, granted the only thing I could compare them to were the ones from IKEA but still. The oysters with espresso pairing is an absolute must. I've never had anything as unique as that. My server was really knowledgeable and explained how the espresso enhances and subtly alters the flavor of each oyster, really great overall. I ended up just staying at the restaurant for over an hour having wonderful conversation with the server. She was really cute too... if you're reading this can you please message me :P?

First thing I did was to search for a Swedish place after a little holiday to Sweden. Those guys know about good coffee and food so I was keen on finding something similar here. Just arriving I get the "embassy" on the name. It feels like that as the cinnamon buns lay in the counter and you hear Swedish all around you. And everyone here looks minimal Scandinavian style which is fact on Stockholm's streets. The place is a really good mix of food and shop. Will be coming back for a snack for sure. And then I'll write something more meaningful. So far, coffee is good. As it should be.

The food here is so lovingly prepared. I had the cod with potatoes. Perfectly cooked and seasoned fish. The ladies that run this shop take great pride in the coffee they prepare and the meals served. The carrot cake is fresh and soft. It's not cheap, but I'm willing to pay for the flavor!

The place is very cosy . And the dishes are very beautiful but expensive . So we only went there once . It is worth to try !

This easy to get to, quaint shop allows for seating to be unconventional and mixed. The selective items that they have on their menu are carefully chosen using locally sourced ingredients.oh and the coffee, no sugar! Just enjoy! We had eggs with salmon, oatmeal with berriesand the homemade cinnamon buns. Delicious!
