  • Great for brunch
  • Charming
  • Neighbourhood gem
The first breakfast brunch venue in Amsterdam finally makes it to Scotland!

ALL DAY Breakfast / Brunch and Lunch menu. Vegan - Vegetarian and Gluten Free dishes and options. Fully licenced and located in the centre of town just off George Street and 5 minutes from Princes Street and the Station.

Dutch inspired and owned.

Homemade drinks and all food prepared fresh daily.

We pride ourselves on sourcing top quality local ingredients and make our products fresh on the premises as much as we can. And of course, we also brought our Dutch roots with us as well. You’ll find it on the menu and in the restaurant itself. Fancy some traditional Dutch ‘appeltaart’ (apple pie)?

    Booking a table is essential. Don’t get there too early as you will need to stand outside if the restaurant is busy, whatever the weather! There were two waitresses for over 40 covers, the tables are squeezed together. The food is delicious and worth the wait if you do arrive early.

    Lovely breakfast/ brunch with a friend. Nice atmosphere, our food was very tasty nicely presented. Staff were enthusiastic helpful and friendly. It's quite small and compact, probably best to book we did.

    Was a nice experience- staff were pleasant, food was nice/ok, they remembered we had a birthday and brunch came with a candle and birthday sticker. The restaurant is very busy with ‘cosy’ atmosphere and ambiance.

    The food was lovely, the service once settled worked well. However full booked and with constant walk-ins affected the service at the start. Having people wait to order, and taking other tables orders who were in 15 mins afterward us didn’t feel right. When approached about it, the server was rude, they apologised for the wait but when we explained the couple next to us had been waiting longer and to serve them 1st, the reply was “your in a rush to order ain’t you! So I’ll take yours not theirs“ very loud across the whole restaurant. It was nothing short of embarrassing.
