Scheltema - Amsterdam

We went here because it was round the corner from where we were staying. It is a lovely, old brown bar owned by the same family since 1967. It lies on what used to be Amsterdam 's Fleet Street and the journalists would eat and drink here. It wasn 't busy and most of the customers were locals. We had good burgers and delicious Mimosas. The staff were wonderful. Would recommend highly. One caveat, it 's cash only.

As a novice vegetarian I really like their vegetarian option : Vega quiche! Very delicious. Other side atmosphere is quite cozy.

We went for a quick bite to eat and this cafe did not disappoint! Service was fast, kind, and helpful. Food was delicious! The onion soup was some of the best I’ve ever had! Definitely recommend this unique cafe!

The waiters were absolutely lovely. I always visit when I want to study or work on projects and I’m always served fast en with smiles, especially by the manager mrs. Karnika. She makes me feel so at home whenever I’m there. 10/10 would recommend to either hang out or study here.

CASH ONLY!! Tried this out as close to hotel. Amazing atmosphere. Not much English spoken here but they understand English and menus in English too. Decent selection, not too much. Reasonable priced. I paid €35 with tip for 2 drinks: beer and glass wine plus pepper steak. Came with generous salad and large fries. Tasty. Prompt service. Good for people watching. Love the friendly cat. Do give it a try.
