If I can, I would give 0 star but I don't have choose actually. Me and my friend have been there to have quick snack.Female staff were really friendly.But everything became upside down with Male worker (He looks over middle age with dark skin). I think he is the owner of shop.If his own the shop then what a big SHAME. We have placed our orders and were waiting for it. Male worker directly talked to me like giving an order to staff..."Do not touch your hair". At the first moment I though he is kidding and trying to make some funny jokes.But what a SHAME! Just because we were sitting front of the big mirror and off course thats normal to look after urself, even for a second u touch your face or hair as a CUSTOMER! Then I realised that he started to talk like a boss and explain why I shouldn't touch my hear inside the shop with unpleasant face. This male worker (or owner) thinks that this is normal way to talk to customer! I was trying to figure out what just happen! I was shocked! I really want to leave immediately but stayed there because of my friend and for also prepared orders by female workers. The moment male worker was talking like bossy way to tell me that how and why shop need to be hygienic but after little while GUESS WHAT HAPPEN! While we have eating we saw a lot of flies on the corner which is where we sat.It was disgusting to see flies around the food. Before we leaved I said "Sir we didn't enjoy because of the flies! he replied by laughing at me and said to me he is gonna take care of it" with really unserious way. I been working in catering business for 8 years and there is no such a example like that even in my entire life. Male worker needs EDUCATE! and I have to say this shop better with only females. I will never ever will go there AGAIN!

AVOID!!! COFFEE LOVERS 4 of us went here, coffee was warm at best and poor, and uht milk... cakes were good.. asked for some hot water to heat coffee up,got a grunt off lady owner no smile, we moved 2 stools outside as only 2 seats were available. It was only 2 yards out to sit opposite our wife’s. Nothing was said until I went across the way to get a takeaway coffee towards the end of our stay as there’s was terrible and expensive. That obviously annoyed the man owner he came out and was ranting about the 2 stools we had moved,that he didn’t have license for them!!! He Should of mentioned it straight away before he took our money,no problem with us. Anyway he started on us about this fact,and then my takeaway coffee!!! Very rude we left had spent 25 euros on 4 coffees & 2 cakes... he was rude, arrogant, grumpy, x2 staff/owners they should not be in this job never seen anything like it, until I saw the other reviews which confirmed our poor experience at this dive.... Avoid,,he’s aggressive also!!!!!

Abzocke und Touristenfalle - lieber woanders eine Waffel probieren!! Der Laden hat auf Google so toll ausgesehen also sind wir hingegangen. Auch in der Vitrine lagen wirklich lauter Waffeln und andere Süßwaren, die wirklich köstlich ausgesehen haben. Preislich haben wir bei der Größe mit Rund 5-7€ gerechnet. Denn die Preistafeln zeigen nur Toppingpreise an und der Verkäufer hat uns auch nicht auf den Preis hingewiesen. Als sie 10€ für die Waffel verlangt haben, waren wir schon etwas geschockt. Aber für gutes Essen wäre es uns wert gewesen. Leider war die Waffel aber weder knusprig noch weich. Nur die Erdbeeren darauf waren gut. Für 10€ ist es das echt nicht wert. Auch 4 Stangen Churros für 6,5€ ist absolut überteuert - ohne Toppings! Leider waren wir echt enttäuscht.

  • Anna T.

Wir haben uns schon gewundert, dass wir keine Preisschilder entdeckt haben. Vielleicht waren wir zu naiv, denn wir haben trotzdem drei Waffeln überzogen mit Schokolade gekauft. Als der Verkäufer - der außerdem alles andere als freundlich war - dann 25,50€ für die drei Waffeln haben wollte, waren wir schon ein wenig ungläubig, aber was macht man nicht alles im Urlaub… Haben für den Preis natürlich eine Geschmacksexplosion erwartet, aber die Realität war eher wie ein Stück Beton aus 99% Zucker und ein bisschen Schokolade. Dann lieber für 2€ aus dem nächsten Supermarkt, kann nur besser schmecken.

EIN RECHT KLEINES ABER SCHNUCKELIGES CAFE MIT VIELEN SÜSSSPEISEN MITTEN IN AMSTERDAM. DIE SÜSSSPEISEN SIND SEHR ANSPRECHEND UND DER NETTE VERKÄUFER HAT UNS AUCH SUPER FRISCHE WAFFELN GEBACKEN. ES SCHMECKT AUCH SO GUT WIE ES AUSSIEHT. DIE CAFE WAREN IN PAPPBECHER ICH WÜNSCHTE MIR WIR HÄTTEN TASSEN WENN WIR SCHONMAL DORT ESSEN UND TRINKEN. EIN STERN ABZUG WEIL ES LEIDER PREISLICH RECHT HOCH IST. 2 WAFFELN (NUR MIT SCHOKOLADEN GUSS) UND 2 KAFFEE 22 EURO DAS IST EINE MENGE GELD FÜR ZWISCHENDURCH ODER ALS NACHTISCH. AMSTERDAM IST DAFÜR WUNDERSCHÖN PROBIERT ES AUS LASST ES EUCH SCHMECKEN

SERVICE: The service and interpersonal skills are utterly missing and the idea of customer service doesn’t exist. Instead they have an attitude of doing a favor by offering us their products. As a reminder, a restraunt runs on the mercy of its customer and not at the attitude of the owner. FOOD: The food very delicious and fresh and of good quality and you get what you pay for. Won’t be disappointed.

  • Paul Plesser

I wasn't feeling very well during the evening and needed a place to sit down in fresh air. Although the staff asked that I purchase something to use their chair/table, they let me sit there for close to an hour until I felt better, with a simple purchase of a bottle of water. The staff checked on me and asked if I was ok, but left me alone and weren't rude or pushy to get me out of there. Thanks guys! I did feel better and managed to get to my hotel to get some much needed rest before my flight the next day.

  • Kieran Cunnane

DO NOT GO HERE. They are another one of the million of awful shops in Amsterdam that charge tourists extra. Of course, they don't provide a menu with prices on them. I thought the medium sized churros were reasonably priced until I realized this 'medium' size is what authentic restaurants in Amsterdam put as their 'small' churros. Disgusting place full of rude service people charging you extra, like 99% of the city. Amsterdam is a beautiful location with disgusting, ugly people.

  • Antoine Bridet

12,50€ : that’s what you’ll have to pay for a chocolate waffle with extra cream and a small bottle of water. This is simply unacceptable, and add to that the fact that the price was only disclosed to me AFTER the waffle was already prepared and served. In hindsight, I should have refused to pay. No menu, no clear prices, no smile from the staff which was far from polite ... just spend your money elsewhere.

  • Charan Ganglani

Walked into this place to get some dessert. Big mistake! The churros were heated in the microwave and tasted stale. The waffle was not good either as it was very dry and the cream was a bit off. Paid €16 to leave my tastebuds with an awful taste. We had to leave the waffle half eaten. It's the worst place to get any dessert! Avoid this tourist trap as there are many better places around the area.

  • Penny

Worst waffles ever. Heated them in the microwave to freshen them up but then stuck to the paper plate. Ingredients were not that fresh and the Nutella icecream tasted cheap and nasty. Very very disappointing and to top it off, it was a complete rip off too. €25 for 2 terrible waffles. Don't waste your time or money! This is my first 1 star review ever but if I could give it less stars I would!

  • Masoom Tulsiani

Biggest Scam Ever run. Paid 11 euros for Waffles with no pricing displayed. When questioned, the staff threatened and said "Why come to Amsterdam centrum if you cannot afford" We should have just refused to pay. They take advantage of tourists. Funny thing is that I'm living in Amsterdam since 7 years and they think I'm a tourist. Who do you think you are to ask why I'm in Amsterdam Centrum?

  • Heidi Elhawary

Server making the crepes is rude. Asked for a crepe with not too much Nutella and whipped cream. He doesn't acknowledge the request. After repeating a couple of times, he looks up and says "I heard you three times already", proceeds to make the crepe and then forgets the whipped cream he heard three times. Crepe was undercooked and doughy. Average and long waits for a disappointing outcome.

  • Candela Álvarez García

Pésimo lugar. Sin calefacción, sin servicios y sin wifi. Además del mal trato al cliente, que no ha sido ni siquiera amable. Carísimo, incluso para estar en Ámsterdam, 5'00€ un café pequeño y en absoluto increíble, más bien mediocre. Solo acudan aquí si quieren sentirse estafados

  • Paulina Franco Luna

Un lugar para nada recomendable cero atención y la comida muy mala, pedimos un brownie por 6 € y estaba seco, ni se podía disfrutar del sabor a chocolate y eso es difícil. Además nos cambiaron de lugar donde estábamos sentados porque llegaron unos conocidos, siendo que ellos llegaron después, una falta total de respeto hacia sus clientes...solo si quieren sentirse robados vayan ahí.

  • Amit Bhatia

No doubt the croissants here are good but there are other options available nearby vicinity. The service here is poor. The owner/crepe maker is very arrogant with customers. The owner might have forgotten that he is in business because of us "the customers". Some people forget about humility and humbleness once they achieve success. And the owner of this shop is one of them.

  • Digibed London

S C A M M E R S. Any pancake you will chose to get will cost you at least 8 E U R O S. Underlined on the menù you will see the prices of the toppings which are 2.5 each. The price of the pancake is written in a very small print and it’s 6 E U R O S. The guys do everything to make you order very expensive. Very dishonest the way they present the menu!

  • Ruth

Had a cheesecake slide w caramel. It was 7.50 euros. It was pretty good and the place was open late at night! Packed place at midnight. The guys were nice to us but I did see them yelling at someone for taking a picture of the pastries! I just snapped a pic when they weren't looking. Not sure why they'd have a problem w pictures.

  • Jonathan Venturi

Posto alla apparenza invitante ma una volta entrati ecco che inizia il raggiro (truffa). Da subito mi hanno appellato col nome di tossico insinuando che avessi sboncato davanti ad altri clienti poi come se non fosse abbastanza 36€ per 4 waffel +8€ per 2 ciambelle banali di homar simposn. PREZZI FOLLI NON ANDATECI

  • Lena

Viel zu teuer - Crepe mit Nutella und eine Kugel Eis haben 9€ gekostet. Es stehen nirgends Preise dran und Kuchen etc. Liegen dort sicher seit Stunden und sind zudem nicht selbst gemacht. Kann ich nicht empfehlen. 2 Sterne, weil der Crepe sehr sehr lecker war, trotzdem kein Preis-Leistungsverhältnis

  • Nuno Cruz

Gostei bastante desde espaço. Pequeno e acolhedor e com boas cores e boa luz. Provavelmente não é tão conhecido porque o sitio é um pouco escondido. O bolo que comi era bastante saboroso e o staff simpatico também. As vitrines são muito sugestivas e é fácil ficar com vontade de entrar.

  • Ed An

Food: not fresh. Take one Waffle and warm up in microwave then put Nutella on top Service: unfriendly. Order then pass you food Atmsopehere: small place, not much seats. Not a place to chill and warm up in cold weather

  • Nishant Joshi

Horrible waffles, the guy literally just warmed up the waffles, squirted some nutella on top and the most shocking bit was that he just threw the strawberries on top. It was almost like having a plain gross waffle with some Nutella on strawberries on the side

  • Luna Anderloni

È vero che il prezzo è un po' alto, e che quello al cioccolato non è piaciuto molto alla persona più amante che conosca. Però consiglio se si vuole prendere da qua quello bianco all'oreo, perché a parere mio è davvero buono, di quello ne prenderei un'altro.

  • S Donovan

AVOID!! It looks way better than it actually is and is SUPER EXPENSIVE. Had way better of the same thing in Belgium for a fraction of the price. My food was super stale and flavorless. And more expensive than the amazing burger I got down the street!

  • Alexis Echer

I had the most disgusting churros I've ever eaten in my life there. They were super salty, chewy and definitely not the freshest, all of this for 8,50€. A waffle with chocolate and a few strawberries ? 10€. This should be illegal. …

  • Jani Bizjak

Had a waffle for 10€. Are you kidding me. It wasn't even anything special, mediocre at best. Not worth it.

Total SCAM we payed 25€ for 2 space cakes that had no effect at all! We got “advised” by the staff before our purchase and he just lied about which was the strongest etc - prices also displayed nowhere It’s a tourist trap, don’t go there

  • BERTRAND Heidinger

The food was quite bad, suspecting everything coming from the freezer and the oven in the shop seemed to be dirty. No visible price mostly because of inapropriate too expensive prices. On top of that, the staff members were obnoxious.

  • LB

Gauffres excellentes mais le prix n'est pas affiché donc l'addition monte rapidement si on prend un café en + (5e le café + 10e une gauffre). + le personnel s'amuse des étrangers et se moque ouvertement. Attrape touriste à éviter

  • Roberta Rocco

Pessima pasticceria e molto costosa, un brownie vecchio e secco e un churros li abbiamo pagati 12,50 euro! Hanno visto che eravamo stranieri e se ne sono approfittati Non ci hanno fatto nemmeno lo scontrino. Non andateci.

  • ΑΘΑΝΑΣΙΟΣ ΜΠΕΝΤΙΚΟΥΓΙΑΣ

Rude rude rude! They even called us babushka when we asked for a receipt. 10 euros for a waffle and they charged 3 euros for a water when they asked for 2 euros to the person behind us. Worst place in Amsterdam. Run away!

  • Marco F.

20 euro for these. Waffle was stale. Their attitude is the worst. One of the guy intimate to pay like I was some kind of idiot. Will never come again and I suggest not to go. My fault to don't check reviews first.

  • Sanskruti Gaikwad

Avoid this place. Especially tourists. Pricey. Price not disclosed before ordering. Looks like they charge differently to different customers. They are not going far with this service. Waffle too, was average.

  • Neha Kalekar

Worst quality to price ratio of any dessert place I've had. 10 euros for overly sweet, dense waffles. Moreover they don't display their exorbitant prices, which makes it feel like a scammy tourist trap

  • Urs Gürtler

Zufällig entdeckt, aber ein Glückstreffer! Olivenpanini, Apfelstange, Strawberry-Cheesecake – alles ausgezeichnet! Und wenn man sich anständig verhält ist auch die etwas ruppige Betreiberin ganz nett.

  • Josef Lachner

Extrem teuer und schlechteste churros (7,50 €) die ich je gegessen habe. Kaum Zimt/Zucker drauf und zäh wie eine Schuhsole (war aber klar weil die Dinger auch schon den ganzen Tag in der Theke lagen)

  • Erin Rowe

Stop... and change your mind, go elsewhere. Super expensive for a microwaved waffle stuck to the paper plate... Find another store, there’s plenty more for you to spend your hard earned cash at!

  • Niki B

If you want to insult yourself then this place is a must try. No respect for the customers is shown by the owner of this bakery. There are many better options available at Dam Square.

  • Florian Risse

Wirklich lecker aber Achtung. Keine Preise ausgehängt. 6 Churos und eine kleine Waffel. 17,50 EUR. Das ist schon sehr grenzwertig. Churos werden vorfritiert und im Ofen heiß gemacht.

  • Sarah Cuvillier

D’accord avec tous les commentaires précédent. Prix non affiché. 10€ la gaufre. Elles sont bonnes certes, mais beaucoup trop cher. Personnel désagréable. Il y a bien mieux ailleurs.

  • Keith Myerscough

Not much good to say about the place. Expensive and unexciting products. They also flat out claimed "not to have a toilet" when someone else asked. I find that hard to imagine.

  • pallavi dani

Worst waffles that we've had so far and paid ridiculous price for them. The attitude of the staff behind the counter was not at all welcoming. Avoid the place if you can.

  • S P (SP)

Rude staff, no pricing, didn't say how much it cost, just said "tap". 3 young girls came in and they were gushing over them in not a nice way! Gross and rubbish!

  • Anaïs Thevenin

C’est honteux de faire payer aussi cher et de prendre les touristes pour des cons ! Dommage parce que ce n’était pas mauvais mais le prix outrageux m’a dégouté

  • Alexandre FAVERAIS

Les gauffres sont plutot bonne mais assez chère (10€) et le prix n'est pas indiqué, un attrape touristique classique (certains commerce vendent les même 3€)

  • Wes McKinney

A definite scam — when I saw 9,50€ for a plain waffle reheated in the microwave with whipped cream and watered down Nutella I just laughed. Watch out

  • Andrea Huang

We had the worst waffles ever. It was very hard and dry, and it definitely didn’t worth the price especially with the terrible thing they provided.

  • Nikol Hristova

The waffle was hard, the prices were not displayed and it wasn't even that tasty for a 10€ waffle. However, it does look good on the outside.

  • Shirley

33 euro uitgegeven voor 2 plakjes cake en 2 milkshakes. De 2 plakjes cake waren ongelooflijk droog en helaas niet zo smakelijk als gehoopt.

  • A. Ertl

Typical tourist trap - very expensive - no prices - the surprise comes when u pay But the waffles are loaded with sugar so the taste good

  • Félix Chalumeau

Hidden and very expensive prices. The waffle was okay but nothing noteworthy. The prices should be a bit re-ajusted and clearly stated.

  • Lupo Benatti
