A good cup of coffee is a basic human right as far as we are concerned, so we won’t let you go without during your stay in our fine city. Our selection is as diverse as it gets, from in house roasting at Head First Coffee Roasters to espresso with a Nordic Twist at Scandinavian Embassy.

Dr. Blend

Health is hip and happening. A trend Dr. Blend very well knows how to roll. Feeling rather tired

take out, or enjoy in his nicely decorated shop.

“Vitamin and organic heaven”

Berry

Berry is located in the hippest neighbourhood in Amsterdam, but is deliciously unpretentious. It’s like

going over to your mate’s place for coffee, but with

a twist. Here you can get a peanutbutter sandwich

Head First Coffeeroasters

We’re incredibly lucky people at LOST. Why you ask?

heading down more frequently for lunch and coffee

Top–5 Drinks Café Restaurant de Plantage, Bar Bukowski, Pacific Park, Bar Lempicka, Hotel not Hotel ‘Borrelen’, having drinks before or after dinner, either with or without snacks, is an essential part of Amsterdam culture. We’ve chosen our top favourites at the moment for a refreshing G&T, a fancy cocktail or a good old pint of beer.

Café Restaurant de Plantage

Café restaurant De Plantage is located in the

Plantage Kerlaan 36

of the city, where nature, science, history and

+31 (0)20 760 68 00

culture all come together. Although De Plantage

Plantage area, a beautiful area in the centre

caferestaurantdeplantage.nl is famous for its restaurant, we also love to come open: mon – fri

here during ‘borreltijd’ (around 16.00 hours) for

09.00 – 01.00

a good wine or to get our Gin &Tonic fix.

Drinks

“Where nature, science, history and culture come together�

Bar Bukowski

Bar Bukowski owes its name to the famous writer Charles Bukowski, who wrote the legendary words: �If

something bad happens, we drink. If there is something

Pacific Park, with either a DJ or a live band. Nice

11.00 – 01.00

for drinks and snacks or a plate of good food.

Bar Lempicka

bar in Rio de Janeiro. The interior is classic, with

Bar Hotel not Hotel

The name is a bit confusing, but take it from us,
