Without any doubt the best coffee in the neighborhood. The coffee beans are sourced in fair and transparent trade (This Side Up Coffee Trade) and later roasted locally in Amsterdam Noord. Also serves delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They also run a little shop next door, where you can buy coffee beans, bread, and other products. Plus a large outside terrace under the trees. Couldn't recommend them enough.

Located at De Ceuvel is this all-vegan restaurant and cafe. Amazing seasonal food, local beers, and a great selection of wine. Sit by the water and enjoy the sun and water birds swimming under your feet. It's just a 7 min walk or take te kayak or SUP and paddle yourself there (it's located bythe same canal as our houseboat).

This might be one of the least obvious food spots in the neighborhood. Serves great food and coffee. Especially nice in good weather - you can enjoy the spacious terrace. It's also a small shop where you can buy fresh bread, pastries, and some basics like milk, veggies, beer and wine. Check out the two huge vintage furniture shops just next to it.
