Best Coffee Spots

Amsterdam’s specialty coffee scene grew up alongside its third-wave roasters in the early 2010s, and the result is a city that takes a flat white as seriously as a genever. This list focuses on cafés that roast their own beans or pull single-origin espresso to a standard you’d recognise in Melbourne or Oslo — Back to Black on Weteringstraat, the lab-style Lot Sixty One on Kinkerstraat, Coffee & Coconuts in De Pijp, Scandinavian Embassy on Sarphatipark, and the original Bocca on Kerkstraat. Each venue page covers seating, laptop policy, and what they actually do better than anyone else.
