Great

The hazelnut snack was delicious, with orange and lemon notes elevating it beyond just a good snack.

The snack filled with pistachio creme was very nice, but I disliked how much creme was pit into it.

The herbal lemonade was refreshing and flavourful, a great drink.

Definitely pricey (5€ for most snacks, 3-6 for drinks), but also incredibly tasty, would recommend.

Good coffee, pastries are too oily

Great coffee! All pastries I tried were way too oily, cruffin didn’t had much flavour at all.

Very crowded but well worth it!

Best croissant and pain au chocolat I’ve ever had. It warms my heart that a vegan place can reach this level of success (we queued for 10 minutes).

Unbelievable pastries!

The pastries are amazing! We had the cruffins, cinnamon twist, pain au choc & almond croissant. They were cooked to perfection, super crispy and really tasty. There is hardly any seating and it’s always so busy so you will have to wait for a long time to sit and eat, which is such a shame. The pastries are so good that it’s worth the wait, though, and I definitely recommend this place.

Pros: Amazing pastries

Cons: Generally a long queue

Best bakery ever!

I liked this bakery better than Margo’s. Excellent caramelized croissant and the hazelnut orange danish was amazing!

Miglior pasticceria vegana di sempre

Unico modo per descriverla è meravigliosa! Infinita scelta di croissant, cinnamon roll, sfogliati salati, krapfen tutto eccezionale. La loro crema al pistacchio è meravigliosa, autoprodotta ( io ho acquistato anche un barattolo o di crema da portare a casa!). Andatevi e vi innamorerete 😘

Amazing!

Absolutely incredible vegan treats! I loved the danish and my daughter had the French toast. There was a Lon line to order but it was incredible and worth the wait!

Oh Lord, let there be cake by Saint Jean! That’s the place to be for everyone who loves the sugar side of live. Love the pistachio thingy. Want to try the French toast with chocolate next. Check it out!

Pros: Food, Stuff

Cons: Mir seats please :)

Very good but not worth queuing for hours

Went there on a weekday because I had noticed that on the weekends there can be a huge line outside and I didn’t want to queue for something I wouldn’t be sure was worth it. Yes their pastries were good, but I regret that they don’t advertise more the fact that it’s all vegan and as a consequence, this place has kind of become a TikTok/IG trend. People take pics of themselves with that food just because it’s cute and it gets views, without acknowledging the fact that it’s vegan. And prices are very expensive. I would recommend it, but wouldn’t queue for more than 15mins for this (I waited around 5mins on a Friday afternoon).

Nice flavours, not warm setting, friendly staff

I ended up here because my first choice didn’t have any vegan desserts. It was 15 minutes prior the closing time and the staff was still welcoming and friendly. I took the cruffin with pistachio and raspberry (nice combination), the one filled with hazelnut cream (very nice) and a espresso (not particularly good I think). The seating space was scarce but I think it’s on purpose. The setting in general felt a bit cold in contrast with the relaxing atmosphere set by the staff. It was almost empty.

Pros: Hazelnut cream pastry

Cons: Not warm setting

No refined-sugar-free pastries

Disappointed to find nothing without refined sugar. Cane sugar in a couple of items was the nearest to it.

Pros: Impressive at what they do.

Cons: Nothing free of refined sugar.

Simply lovely

An incredible bakery with lots of great vegan treats.

The pistachio cruffin and pistachio paste were our favourites. If you leave outside of the EU and you can bring the paste home with you, defiantly do it!!

Pros: Pistachio Paste

Expected to be better

We saw a lot of good reviews about this place and when arriving there also were people in the line waiting even outside. That as well made us think it should be really good then. But honestly we have had much better vegan pastry than this. Sure it was fine but taste wasn't as good as we expected and also they were a bit dried out so probably they were from a day before. We appreciate though that it's all vegan. But wouldn't say it was worth the hype.

Worth the trip to Amsterdam

I had a lot of luck because there was no que. Ordered their famous Cruffin and this is indeed a very tasty snack: Croissant-like dough - crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside and a filling of pistachio, blueberry and frangipane!

Best sandwich ever

On our first day of our trip to Amsterdam we visited and had the beetroot, wasabi mayo and ‘feta’ sandwich and it was so good that I went back multiple times! I’ve even tried to replicate it since! All pastries and food from here was delicious and definitely should be top of your list.

Not worth it

I queued on a busy Saturday for 30 minutes or so to try the pastries. The line wasn't that long, but the service moved at a glacial pace. The pastries I tried were fine, but absolutely not worth the wait or the price.

Delicious!

This place is well worth the hype! We popped in at about 10 am and luckily there wasn't a queue. The pastries are huge (about the size of your head!) and delicious, especially when washed down with an oat latte. Staff were really nice and quick to clean tables once people left. There's limited seating area available, so expect to have to takeout if you come during busier times.

Sounds like Amsterdam is the place to go then 👍
