Must go in Amsterdam - Edit
I live in Utrecht and Saint-Jean makes me wanna move to Amsterdam asap. Their pastries are a delight, not too sweet, delicious and flakey. Besides sweet viennoiserie they also offer some savory options. Definitely get the pumpkin jam/vanilla custard cruffin as well as the brioche!
Read moreTheir coffee specialties are well balanced and made with high quality coffee beans 🫘
Pros: Delicious pastries , Great coffee, Friendly staff
Cons: Often no seats

Wow wow wow - Edit
Probably the best vegan pastries I have had (specifically the pain Suisse was sublime). I made my way to the city during a long layover to check out this bakery and it was 100% worth it. Check the deli across the street for more savory items!

Blew our little minds - Edit
Some truly amazing looking pastries here. We loved it so much we came back twice during our 3 days in Amsterdam. If only there was such a place in London. I would also be interested to know how many of the clientele are not vegan since there is no overt advertisement the place is vegan.

Delicious! 🤤 💚 - Edit
This place was on my list for a while. Finally had the chance to visit Saint-Jean and it was amazing! I choose the cruffin with blueberries (recommended by the staff) and the cinnamonbun. Both were so good! Amazing! 🤩 Very friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Must visit when you are in Amsterdam! 💚

Best croissants & other pastries - Edit
The pain au chocolat is one of the best ones I’ve ever had. The pistachio croissant was also great, and coffee was really good. The café is 100% plant-based, with some seats inside. It’s very popular, so it’s better to come early!
Read moreUpdate November 2025: the pastries are still amazing! I had the pistachio cruffin again and tried the pain suisse. The cruffin is quite sugary and rich (with the pistachio filling), I had a bit of a sugar rush afterwards haha. Glad to see they’re still very popular. The barista was really friendly!

If you love pastries, this is the place for you - Edit
I tried the Danish (yogurt and mango), as well as the Blueberry cruffin. The Danish was absolutely outstandind, juicy inside and crispy outside. The mango filling was very fragrant and tasted natural. The cruffin was good, though I’ve had better ones (in Prague). The coffee was also good. I was lucky to wait in line for literally only 3 minutes, but by the time I picked up my order, a huge queue had already formed behind me. It would also be great if there were more seats inside, because the place is very cozy 🙏

To die for pastries - Edit
It was a bit like a military operation trying to find seating even on a Monday morning. There was a line out the door and seats were full inside and out. I sent my partner to order coffees at their deli opposite to try to secure seating as it looked hopeless here. Super difficult to choose but I ordered the blueberry pistachio cruffin and pain suisse. My partner managed to get coffees and seats at their deli where I enjoyed the pastries. Sadly the server gave me the plain pistachio version rather than the blueberry one. It was divine though still covered with sugar and filled with pistachio paste. The pain suisse was incredible too with custard and dark chocolate. I’d love to try everything on the menu and eat those again too. Sad we live so far away.

Most Perfect Pastery I Ever Had - Edit
I think I might have just gotten the most perfect pastery I ever had. I got a blueberry pistachio cruffin that had the perfect flakiness and a very tasty pistachio and blueberry filling. I will remember it for a long time. Definitely recommend!

Best pastries in Amsterdam - Edit
The place is very popular, so there was a queue outside the door and no place to sit inside. But it's worth the hype. The salted caramel and coffee bun was one of the best buns I've ever had. Also loved the double baked almond, blueberry and pistachio cruffin. The other two croissants were also epic. Wish I could have tried them all :D

This bakery is super nice. We had two types of cruffin: pistachio and matcha strawberry.
Read moreBoth were great, but we preferred the pistachio one. We also had a bun thing, I don't recall what the name was. This was also great!
