Hidden inside the industrial NDSM Loods, Bakkerij Sollinger serves some of Amsterdam's most beloved organic sourdough, making the trip across the IJ entirely worthwhile. Using local and organic ingredients – the flour is sourced from Zandhaas and vegetables are harvested from the Beemster – the daily bakes range from marmelade-flavoured brioche to crusty rye boules. 

If we're waiting in line to nab a spot at Kometen, the good news is that Crew de la Cream has just slung open its shutters. Is it the best new coffee spot in town? Potentially. There's speciality blends and plenty of matcha on offer, plus some gourmet lunch toasties.

Cheese and wine are what Kaasbuur does best. With a brand-spanking, new location in NDSM at Door Open Space, it's become that little bit easier to get your hands on a wedge of Mont d'Or and Kobunder goat cheese for the evening's borrel. And, even better news? Crew de la Crema's coffee is under the same roof.
