The food is solid here, sure, but the reason we really love Petit Péché is the vibe. The space is warm and beautiful, and the staff is not just knowledgable and friendly but also almost obscenely good looking. Pop by when things are just a little too full? Head over to their sister restaurant, Café Beurre, or their tiny wine bar next door, Café a Côté.

If you’ve been flipping through this book, you’ve probably noticed that Amsterdam is a pretty incredible place to drink coffee. No matter the ‘hood, there’s always somewhere to get a good cup of Joe. Lot Sixty One is one such place. But the real reason you can find us there on most Saturdays? The cinnamon buns. They are truly out of this world.

This cool, fun streetwear brand has great unique pieces. We love that it was born right here in Amsterdam and never miss an opportunity to stop by their Bilderdijstraat location for fun upgrades to our ever-growing wardrobes.

While New York, Los Angeles & London are certainly at the forefront of the boutique fitness studio revolution, we hold firm that Amsterdam is catching up quickly. PLTS is a sleek & stylish Pilates studio located in Amsterdam’s Oud West. Don’t be fooled by the chill, calming décor (though we do love feeling like we’re at the spa). The workout is killer. We promise.
