Hungry to eat like a true Amsterdammer?

Our Self-Guided Food Tour of De Pijp takes you through Amsterdam’s tastiest street: the Albert Cuypmarkt.

You’ll snack your way through iconic Dutch bites and international favorites, from a crispy croquette to Surinamese curry to mini pancakes and fries with serious attitude.

Sure, you could just stroll the market and try a few things on your own — but here’s the thing: this PDF guide saves you time, money, and decision fatigue.

As locals, we’ve done all the research for you and handpicked eight authentic, family-owned spots that have been feeding Amsterdammers for years.

At 7 out of the 8 stops, we’ve arranged special perks just for you: discounts, exclusive mini tasting portions, and sometimes even the chance to try something that isn’t usually on offer.

Normally, you’d have to order full-size portions, which makes tasting multiple things a challenge. With our guide, you get to sample a little of everything — the smart (and tasty) way.

Please Note: *Food is not included. This is a self-guided food tour in PDF format. You can order at each location what you like based on the guides recommendations.

Itinerary – Your Foodie Line-Up:

Start: A legendary croquette shop — crunchy, creamy, and oh-so-Dutch

Next: A beloved family-run fish stall for herring and golden kibbeling

Then: A warm Surinamese welcome at Chin’s, with a special-tasting portion just for you

Fourth stop: A smoked brisket sandwich — juicy, savory, and optional napkin needed

Sweet time: Mini pancakes (poffertjes) made fresh on the spot

Sixth stop: A warm, gooey, caramel-filled stroopwafel — need we say more?

Seventh: Osaka Balls — crispy, flavor-packed takoyaki (Japanese street food delight)

Finale: The one and only Dutch fries — sauce it up your way
