Address: Vondelpark 5, Amsterdam 1071 AA
Dating from 1937 and designed by brothers HAJ Baanders and J Baanders, the 'Blue Tea House' is a glorious example of functionalist architecture. Resembling a flying saucer – which looks like it has carefully negotiated the trees to land in the middle of the Vondelpark – this café somehow feels like one of the city's best-kept secrets, even though...

Address: Warmoestraat 69, Amsterdam 1012 HX
Mention of this delightful establishment is enough to make mouths water, thanks to its repertoire of incredible baked goods. Fresh scones (served with clotted cream), wonderful pain au chocolat, and big, crusty loaves of bread tempt with their aromas alone, as do fragrant coffees and teas. Other options throughout the day include quiche, soups,...

Address: Huidenstraat 9, Amsterdam 1016 ER
In the evenings, this small place will set you up with a bowl of pasta and a hearty salad, but during the day, folks clamor for substantial sandwiches, lush soups, and the like which can be enjoyed, along with views of the charming street, from the window seat or tiny pavement terrace. All ingredients are inevitably top-notch and their fruity...

Address: Nieuwmarkt 4, Amsterdam 1012 CR
Once a city gate, this now-restaurant is an awesome mix of 15th-century architecture and 21st-century adaptation. The interior maintains a medieval charm, complete with enormous, candle-studded chandeliers; outside, terrace tables invite folks to while away sunny afternoons on the Nieuwmarkt square. Along with sandwiches and salads, the menu...

If your idea of breakfast demands a little something sweet (in the European tradition), you'd do well to visit this quaint patisserie. Within its walls, you'll discover a wealth of treats, including cakes, tortes, turnovers, croissants and even ice cream. All of the goods are homemade, and they frequently feature a few things you didn't even know...

Address: Zeedijk 143, Amsterdam 1012 AW
Truly unique, this café, right by the Nieuwmarkt square, is located within a small split-level bric-a-brac store. A true retro-seekers paradise, it has some of the most kitsch objects you'll find in Amsterdam from jigsaw puzzles of the royal family and embroidered animal portraits to cheesy 7" singles – and at very affordable prices. Everything,...

Address: Prinsengracht 191, Amsterdam 1015 DS
A favorite of tourists and a fun, all-around restaurant, Pancake Bakery occupies a canal house that once belonged to the Dutch East India Company. Today, the cozy place pulls in droves of folks, who tackle generous offerings of sweet and savory pancake dishes. Depending on your taste, you can sample selections with ham-and-cheese, Indonesian...

Address: Singel 311, Amsterdam 1012 WJ
This deli itself isn't much to look at, and it seats only a handful of diners, but the pleasure of the authentic Greek cuisine more than compensates for the lackluster decor. Besides, most folks do take-out anyway, and the place is well-equipped for to-go orders. The range of Greek specialties is familiar, from spanakopita and dolmades to moussaka...

Connected to the Filmmuseum, this café-restaurant enjoys an enviable location in Vondelpark and makes for especially pleasant dining when the temperature is balmy and the outdoor terrace available. The menu changes regularly, and options range from sandwiches at lunch to full meals featuring a tender rib-eye, grilled tuna, roasted vegetables,...
