Kevin, 22, fashion designer “I‘ve been an ‘Amsterdammer’ for six months now. I decided to live here because of the friendly and welcoming people. What I love about Amsterdam is that it’s a truly international city, which means heaps of expats and exchange students. You never know which nationality you’re going to meet on a night out. I like to see Amsterdam as Andy Warhol: classy, arty, poppy, extraverted, friendly and genius.” Kevin’s favorites: Drinks – Stanislavski Food – Rijsel

We at LOST are of the carefree sort, but there is one thing we take very, very seriously: coffee. We love to go to places that know the difference between a flat white and a cappuccino, but also go beyond your average coffee bar. Our selection will please everyone, from the aficionado to the shopaholic.
Coffee
Top–5 Coffee Brandmeesters, Vinnies Deli, Screaming Beans, Lot 61 & Koko
1
Brandmeesters
As soon as you walk into Brandmeesters, located on the swanky Van Baerlestraat, you already know you’re going to get a good cup of coffee. The walls are lined
Van Baerlestraat 13
with transparant bean dispensers, organized by origin
+31 (0)20 572 08 11
and strength, and the staff is more than willing to help
brandmeesters.nl
you. But the coffee here is even better than good; it’s
open: daily
pretty damn close to perfect.
Coffee
“Pretty damn close to perfect”
2
Vinnies Deli
The Haarlemmerstraat has earned a reputation for having the coolest shops and restaurants and Vinnies Deli is no exception. They only use high
Haarlemmerstraat 46
quality and sustainable products, which results
+31 (0)20 771 30 86
in the most delicious sandwiches and cakes
vinniesdeli.nl
(the carrot cake is a favourite of ours) but most
open: daily
importantly, they serve a mean cup of coffee to kickstart your mornings.
Coffee
“High quality and sustainable products”
3
Screaming Beans
While you’re giving your credit card a good exercise in the 9 Straatjes, make a pit stop at the local specialty coffee bar Screaming Beans. The staff is one of the
Hartenstraat 12
most knowledgeable and friendliest in town but what
+31 (0)20 626 09 66
really sets them apart in a sea of coffee places is their
screamingbeans.nl
‘slow coffee’. The coffee is gently filtered, allowing for
open: daily
a fresh and surprising cup of coffee.
Coffee
“Fast place for slow coffee”
4
Lot Sixy One
For Lot 61, the foundation of a good coffee is a great quality coffee bean. They Source their coffee seasonal and roast them in house – so you
Kinkerstraat 112
can imagine how good the smell is in their cozy
+31 (0)6 426 133 42
espresso bar on the Kinkerstraat. And best of all,
lotsixtyonecoffee.com
you can even take a bag of those heavenly coffee
open: daily
beans back home, minus the barista.
Coffee
“Enjoy true coffee”
5
Koko
Koko Coffee & Design combines two of our favourite things: coffee and shopping. While
Oudezijds
enjoying your cup of Caffènation coffee, you can
Achterburgwal 145
browse the racks with the latest offerings of young
+31 (0)20 626 42 08
designers and the best vintage finds. Koko doesn’t

limit itself to coffee and clothing; vintage furniture,

magazines and photographs are also on offer.

When you first venture out into the city, you can easily get overwhelmed by the amount of amazing stores in Amsterdam. No worries though, LOST is here to guide you to the shops you really don’t want miss out on. Keep your credit card ready!
Shop
Top–5 Shop Maison de Bonneterie, Restored, Scotch & Soda, MaisonNL & Sukha
1
Maison de Bonneterie
Maison de Bonneterie first opened its doors in 1889 and has become a true Amsterdam icon over the last 125 years. The store on the Rokin is counted among
Rokin 140 – 142
the most beautiful buildings in Amsterdam. As well as
+31 (0)20 531 34 00
stocking the good quality classics for your wardrobe,
debonneterie.nl
you can also find new and exciting brands like Won
open: daily
Hundred, Tiger of Sweden and Cold Method.
Shop
“Quality since 1889”
2
Restored
Every once in a while you come across a store that is truly a gem, from the decoration to the merchandise, everything is well thought of and simply beautiful.
Haarlemmerdijk 39
Restored is one of those elusive stores. Their focus
+31 (0)20 337 64 73
lies with craftsmanship, meaning that every product
restored.nl
in their store on the Haarlemmerdijk 39, from dress
open: mon – sat
to doorknob, is handmade and limited in its availability.
Shop
“Simple and beautiful”
3
Scotch & Soda
Located in the ‘9 Straatjes’ area, the classic façade hides one of the nicest Scotch & Soda stores in town. In a boutique–like setting, you’ll find both the ladies
Huidenstraat 3–5
and mens collection of this Amsterdam–born fashion
+31(0)20 788 32 30
brand. Other Scotch & Soda stores: Heiligeweg 34–36,
scotch–soda.com

and Wolvenstraat 14, +31(0)20 788 26 33 (Kids Store).
Shop
“Amsterdam couture”
4
MaisonNL
If you’re greedy by nature, we would advise you to stay away from concept store MaisonNL. The fresh and bright shop is filled with leather goods, ceramics,
Utrechtsestraat 118
clothes, jewellery, homeware and much, much more.
+31 (0)20 428 51 83
Owners Jonett and Cora select their products
maisonnl.com
carefully, focusing on quality and craftsmanship.
open: tue – sun
The ideal place to find an original gift for the home!
Shop
“A store that makes you greedy”
5
Sukha
Sukha is the Sanskrit word for ‘joy of life’ and joy is exactly what you feel when you step inside Sukha on the Haarlemmerstraat. The light and cosy
Haarlemmerstraat 110
store is filled with unique, sustainable and mostly
+31 (0)20 330 40 01
handmade items that are picked by owner Irene
sukha-amsterdam.nl
herself. Maybe it’s the beautiful poetry painted on
open: daily
the wall, but we always feel inspired when we’ve visited Sukha.

Our Art selection this issue is about as diverse and unexpected as it gets. From the classics at the Rijksmuseum, cutting edge documentary photography at Melkweg Galerie, the hidden church in Ons’ Lieve Heer op Solder to boundary pushing contemporary art at Torch Gallery and spotting the newest talents at Walls Gallery.
Art
Top–5 Art Melkweg Galerie, Ons’ Lieve Heer op Solder, Torch Gallery, Rijksmuseum & Walls Gallery
1
Melkweg Galerie
Amsterdam is a photography city, and Melkweg Galerie is one of the most exciting parts of the scene. The Gallery focuses on boundary pushing, socially
Lijnbaansgracht 234
engaged documentary photography. As part of the
+31 (0)20 531 81 81
famous music venue the Melkweg, the Gallery seeks
melkweg.nl
to introduce a wide range of people to the medium
open: wed – sun
of photography by being open on atypical hours and organizing exciting and unorthodox projects.
Art
“Boundary pushing photography”
2
Ons’ Lieve Heer op Solder
You could just walk by Ons’ Lieve Heer op Solder (which translates to “our dear Lord in the attic”) without even noticing it. From the outside it’s a
Oudezijds
typical canal house but on the inside is a glorious
Voorburgwal 40
catholic church. It was built in the 17th century,
opsolder.nl
when Catholics were heavily prosecuted in the
open: mon – sun
Protestant Netherlands. A remarkable site!
Art
“One of the most remarkable sites in Amsterdam ”
3
Torch Gallery
Torch Gallery, located on the gorgeous Lauriergracht, is one of the most exciting
Lauriergracht 94
galleries in Amsterdam, and has been so since its
+31 (0)20 626 02 84
foundation in 1984. They were one of the first to
torchgallery.com
champion photography as a fine art medium in
open: thu – sat
the 1980’s and have been on the forefront of the
and by appointment
newest developments in the art world ever since.
Art
“A fixture in the Amsterdam art scene”
4
Rijksmuseum
No visit to Amsterdam is complete without a trip to the Rijksmuseum, the internationally renowned museum housing a vast collection of historical
Museumstraat 1
artifacts and artworks. The Rijksmuseum is most
+31 (0)20 674 70 00
famous for its extraordinary collection of Dutch
rijksmuseum.nl
Masters from the 17th Century but why not explore
open: daily
the lesser known but equally impressive collection of Asian art in the newly built Asian Pavillion?
Art
“Explore the true Dutch Masters”
5
Walls Gallery
Though Walls Gallery is located in the heart of Amsterdam’s art district, it isn’t your average art
Prinsengracht 737
gallery. The bright and colourful space on the
+31 (0)20 616 95 97
Prinsengracht is inviting and accessible. Besides
walls.nl
hosting exhibitions that focus on up and coming talent
open: wed – sun
(i.e. still affordable), Walls also boasts a concept store
and on appointment
in the back, featuring works by promising designers.

Top–5 Food SLA, Hotel de Goudfazant, Ricardo’s in Odeon, Bluespoon Restaurant & Chow
1
SLA
At SLA, they have the perfected the art of salad making, which isn’t surprising, considering that “sla” is the Dutch word for salad. Founders Nina and Jop
Ceintuurbaan 149
have a big passion for food that tastes amazing and
+31 (0)20 789 30 80
coincidentally is extremely healthy as well. You can
ilovesla.com
build your own salad but SLA also has the yummiest

sandwiches and sinfully delicious cakes and sweets.

Hotel de Goudfazant
The car that’s parked in the middle of the restaurant is a reminder of the former function of Hotel de Goudfazant: a car garage. De Goudfazant
Aambeeldstraat 10
is the ultimate representative of the cool and
+31 (0)20 636 51 70
resourceful spirit of Amsterdam-Noord, serving up
hoteldegoudfazant.nl
gourmet level French cooking in the industrial chic
open: tue – sun
surroundings of the restaurant. The menu changes according to what’s in season.
Food
“Gourmet cooking, industrial surrounding�
3
Ricardo’s in Odeon
Chef/wunderkind Ricardo van Ede (who earned his first Michelin-star at the age of 21) has set up shop in Odeon. The restaurant has an industrial yet
Singel 460
warm atmosphere. The food is equally robust but
+31 (0)20 521 85 59
with a fine dining edge. Our current favourite is the
odeonamsterdam.nl
duck with Jerusalem artichoke but we’re going to

be honest: everything is delicious at Ricardo’s.

Bluespoon Restaurant
You know you’re in for a good dining experience, when the menu details the origin of the ingredients of your dish. Bluespoon’s chef Julian Piquet
Hotel Andaz
cooks from the farm-to-table principle, meaning

everything on your plate comes from the best

Chow
If we just had to go by looks, Chow would be a three star restaurant in our eyes. Owner Casper Reinders transformed the historical building on the
Rozengracht 106
Rozengracht into a warm and intimate space, filled
+31 (0)20 624 57 52

Top–5 Drinks Café de Pijp, Stanislavski, Café Tabac, Tunes Bar & Bubbles & Wines LOST wants to take you beyond the sad tourist drinking holes on the Leidseplein to the vibrant venues that make Amsterdam the great party city that it is. From casual Friday night drinks to the best Gin & Tonic you’ll ever have, get ready to hit the town!
1
Café de Pijp
Café De Pijp is loved amongst students, tourists and locals alike, and with good reason. It’s one of the most convivial (or “gezellig” as we like to say) bars
Ferdinand Bolstraat 18
in Amsterdam, with an enthusiastic staff that never
+31 (0)20 670 41 61
lets your glass stay empty. There are lots of cozy
cafedepijp.eu
nooks to sit in with your friends. Before you know it,
open: daily
Saturday night has turned into Sunday morning.
Drinks
“Gezellig, as we say”
2
Stanislavski
Stanislavski is the place to be on the lookout for wellknown Dutchies but for those of you who aren’t up to date on the who’s who, it’s also a great place for a drink
Leidseplein 26
and amazing charcuterie from Amsterdam’s finest
+31 (0)20 795 99 95
Brand & Levi. Stanislavski also has a unique location
stanislavski.nl
and décor, as it’s part of the Stadsschouwburg, one
open: daily
of the most beautiful theatres in the city.
Drinks
“Unique location for a drink”
3
Café Tabac
Café Tabac is located on what might just be the most beautiful corner in Amsterdam. In the summer their terrace is always overflowing but luckily for
Brouwersgracht 101
us, indoor is just as good as outside. The relaxed
+31 (0)20 622 44 13
and friendly atmosphere at Tabac attracts a wide
cafetabac.eu
variety of people but there’s always a free barstool
open: daily
available. Bring on the ‘bitterballen’ and beer!
Drinks
“Relaxed and friendly”
4
Tunes Bar
Gin & Tonics are a particular weakness of ours. When we need our G&T fix, we know exactly
Hotel Conservatorium
where to go: Tunes Bar in the Conservatorium
Van Baerlestraat 27
Hotel, where they stock more than 30 kinds of gin.
+31 (0)20 570 00 00
Their other cocktails aren’t too shabby either, as
conservatoriumhotel.com
well as the amazing sushi. The chique yet informal
open: daily
atmosphere at Tunes is why we keep coming back.
Drinks
“Get your G&T fix”
5
Bubbles & Wines
“Spoiled for choice� gets a whole new meaning when you stop by Bubbles & Wines. Here, you can choose from more than fifty(!) types of wines per
Nes 37
glass. Luckily the bartenders know their stuff and
+31 (0)20 422 33 18
can suggest the perfect wine for you. Enjoy it with
bubblesandwines.com
their Gourmet Bites, which naturally complement
open: daily
your wine perfectly.

Specials is our category for the places that truly catch the unique spirit of Amsterdam. Those spots that you’ll be hard pressed to find in any other city and that make your trip one you’ll remember for the rest of your life.
Specials
Top–5 Specials Athenaeum, Guild of Holland, Jay’s Juices, Bubblekid & Lobster House
1
Athenaeum
Athenaeum is actually two stores beneath one roof: a bookstore and the kiosk Nieuwscentrum. The bookstore is wonderful but it’s the kiosk that makes
Spui 14 – 16
our heart skip a beat. Their selection of international
+31 (0)20 514 14 70
and hard to find magazines is beyond your wildest
athenaeum.nl
dreams: Kinfolk, Toilet Paper, Cereal, Lucky Peach
open: daily
and many more titles you’ve never heard of.
Specials
“Magazine heaven”
2
Guild of Holland
Amsterdam is jam-packed with souvenir stores, but the quality of the wares in those places is, to put it lightly, a bit lacking. This is certainly not the case at
Prinsengracht 260
The Guild of Holland Store on the Prinsengracht,
+31 (0)20 753 01 59
which is filled with beautiful, handmade and
guildofholland.com
modern Dutch products. Try and not take one of
open: mon – sat
those beautiful leather bags home. We dare you.
Specials
“Not your average souvenir store�
3
Jay’s Juices
Your healthy diet is quickly thrown out of the window when you’re visiting Amsterdam, what with all the delicious croquets and beers. To get your
Haarlemmerstraat 14
much needed vitamins, stop over at Jay’s Juices.
+31 (0)20 623 12 67
Jay serves us the most delicious and energizing
jaysjuices.nl
fruit and vegetable juices and he might even give
open: mon – sat
you a backrub and a blessing if you’re lucky.
Specials
“Get your vitamin shot”
4
Bubblekid
Bubblekid is quite confusing at first; are we supposed to get our hair cut without a mirror in front of us, while seated at a long table? But once
Ferdinand Bolstraat 145
you’re seated, you’re grateful there’s no mirror.
+31 (0)20 470 81 23
That way you can ogle the clothes and other
bubblekid.nl
products, or have a conversation with the person
open: tue – sat
seated across from you. And you get to leave with an amazing haircut. Score!
Specials
“Hair salon with benefits�
5
Lobster House
Calling all seafood lovers! The Lobster House on Frederiksplein is a fresh food take-out that focuses on fish and shellfish. The deli with a cool industrial
Frederiksplein 6 – 8
feel (it’s housed in a former car garage) serves up
+31 (0)20 845 18 33
some amazing dishes. The lobster is, naturally, our
lobsterhouse.nl
top pick but keep an eye out for their daily specials
open: tue – sat
and their seasonal sandwiches.
