I was wandering around the beautiful and quiet Jordaan neighborhood and found this café for lunch. It is cute but not outstanding. I expected an average sandwich/soup lunch and the menu wasn't impressive. However, when the food came it was excellent. The bland description in the menu completely underplayed the excellent sandwich combination. The accompanying salad was fresh with a flavorful dressing. It was a quiet afternoon and there were not many in the café. The waitress (perhaps owner or manager?) was very attentive and friendly. It was one of my last days in Amsterdam or I would have tried to eat there again. Highly recommended.

The cafe is situated in the non-touristy Jordaan neighborhood of Amsterdam. It has a lovely old time ambiance and also plays live music most of the days. However the staff at the place are quite rude. I would go in to peek at it, but would not stay for the evening ( unless they get better staff).
