Muddled menu

Looking for a nice place for breakfast we headed to Le Pain.

The menu is a muddle of items. There are some vegan options but nothing to get too excited about.

I took the Le Pain breakfast with orange juice and ginger tea.

The ‘breakfast’ was essentially a breadbasket with a croissant.

Pros: Nice service, Lovely hibiscus croissant

Cons: Limited protein options for vegans

Limited but yummy

Limited but yummy vegan options - the breakfast muffins with fruits and nuts was a hit.

A homely atmospheres with friendly staff which is a nice break from the busy city and tourist surrounds. Good place to go with non-vegan company too!

Heerlijke lunch gehad op het terras

We waren een dagje in Amsterdam, omdat we ‘s avonds een concert hadden.

We waren lekker aan het struinen en hebben bij jullie geluncht. Het was superlekker! Ik heb genoten van de yoghurt en vooral de hibiscus croissant!

Pros: Vriendelijk personeel, Lekkere vegan opties, Fijne plek

Cons: Duur

Great place for breakfast

Good selection of vegan breakfast, also great when you go with non-vegans. Especially the sweet pastries, like the croissant or the cinnamon bun are totally worth it! Too bad that plant milk costs extra.

Cons: Pricy, Have to pay extra for plant based milk

Some vegan options for breakfast

Relatively early opening hours & some vegan breakfast options. The hibiscus croissant was very tasty.

Good for early breakfast

I have been to serveral "Le Pain Quotidien" also in other countries, because they are usually near tourist sights and have early opening hours - so it's ideal for tourists for an early breakfast before sightseeing.
I usually enjoy the atmosphere and their baked goods - the vegan chocolate tart is great, or items from the bakery with the dark chocolate spread, which is available on the communal tables (as are delicious jams).
They offer a "vegan brunch" which has a croissant, bread, baguette, a little bit of avocado toast, hummus, granola, a fresh juice and a warm beverage.
This "Le Pain Quotidien" was a bit disappointing: service was a bit slow, the vegan hibiscus croissant didn't really taste fresh and their wasn't much espresso in the cappuccino! Prices are quite high for what you get. The fresh orange juice was great, though, and we really hadn't far to walk to the Dam Square afterwards for our time slot to visit the Royal Palace.
Le Pain Quotidien also offers warm dishes for lunch.

Boring vegan options

Typically the type of restaurant that has 2-3 vegan options, but doubtful if they're even thought out by a vegan. Very basic and tasteless salad, basic avocado sandwich. It's a place that won't surprise you

Unfriendly stuff

The prices are really high and the portions are small. I had a vegan apple pie. It was delicious but to small. I ordered a cappuccino with soy milk and they forgot it and brought me a normal coffee.. I do not recommend this café

Pros: Many vegan options Delicious food

Cons: Expensive

Good food - bit pricy

The avocado toast was really nice and the homemade lemonade was super tatsty, but the service was a bit slow and more than 8 euros for 3 small pieces of bread and avo is a bit too much for me.

Best Vegan hummus toast I ever had

Really cute cafe in the middle of Amsterdam. The staff was very friendly and welcoming.
You have the option to get coffee with plant milk.
We got the vegan chili and it was okay but too pricey.
The toast with warm hummus was one of the best things I've had as a vegan so far very recommendable.

very filling

I slept in and went here for brunch/lunch. I had the Chili sin Carne. It was delicious and came with bread. It got me going for all my sightseeing. I would go back.

Quality place.

Really nice place, good atmosphere and great staff who are willing to work with you.
It's not fast food price but considering the service, the surroundings and the quality of the food you are getting more in return than you paid for.

P.S. BEST BAGUETTE I'VE TASTED IN MY LIFE!

Pros: You can taste the quality, Good service, Nice environment

Cons: Small bathrooms

Nice but pricy

We went here for breakfast. The vegan options are marked with a little carrot and that's great. Myself and boyfriend both had avocado on toast, 2 coffees and we shared a little pastry twist that had hazelnuts in.
It was nice and the cafe it cute. Looks just like a little Parisian Patisserie. However it was very pricy at €22 for the bill. I would only go back if I was hungry and didn't have many other options I'm afraid.

Pros: Nice food , Nice decor

Cons: Expensive

Yummy lunch

First of all, marking everything vegan clearly is a great plus!

Went there for lunch. Had an interesting aubergine sandwich thingy and a banana split dessert. Very nice and I think the food's organic, so healthy too :)

Probably best suited for breakfast/lunch.

Many options for vegans

I arrived just as this restaurant was closing so unfortunately I could not try the food, but I did speak to a very friendly staff member who let me look at a menu (I've uploaded a copy), and explained that all items marked with a carrot are vegan and that breakfast is served all day. The restaurant does serve meat but about 70% of the dishes are vegetarian with approximately 40% vegan. This is a chain with at least another two venues within Amsterdam. I'll definitely be returning in the future.

Pros: location, vegan options marked

Cons: not fully veg

Yum

I love Le Pain. I've been to them in London, Belgium and now Amsterdam. They never disappoint. They have clearly marked vegan options of a high standard. I had brunch today and opted simply for fruit salad and a basket of all different breads. The jams are amazing. One of the options was a superfood breakfast of granola, fruit, agave, seeds and soy yogurt.

For lunches and dinners: the soup
Option is always vegan. Today it was pumpkin. They have a few tartines which are like open sandwiches with white beans, avocado, hummus & tomato. They have a few types of hummus. Also a lovely quinoa salad with lentils, tapenade, veggies and hummus with bread.

Also, they have speculoos biscuits and vegan blueberry muffin. Soy latte was really good.

Pros: Reliable and pleasant to sit in , Good quality food, Reasonably priced
