Lanskroon

Banketbakkerij Lanskroon is one of those rare addresses that feels both deeply local and wonderfully indulgent. Exactly the kind of place travelers hope to discover while wandering the city.

Located in the historic heart, Lanskroon is a traditional Dutch bakery with a cozy seating area where you can slow down, warm up, and treat yourself. Order a coffee, tea, or rich hot chocolate and pair it with one of their sweet or savoury pastries.

The real star: Stroopwafels

If there is one reason to visit Lanskroon, it is their stroopwafels. Long before stroopwafels became famous with tourists, Lanskroon was already known among locals for making some of the best in the city. These are freshly baked on-site, generously sized, and perfectly crispy on the outside with a warm, gooey filling inside.

They offer three distinctive varieties:

• Honey – classic, rich, and comforting
• Coffee – deeper, slightly bitter-sweet, and addictive
• Figs & Raisins – unique, refined, and surprisingly elegant

Eat one fresh at the counter or take some home as an authentic (and delicious) Amsterdam souvenir.

Seasonal Dutch treats

Lanskroon celebrates Dutch traditions throughout the year. In winter, they sell oliebollen—a beloved Dutch fried pastry with nuts, raisins, and a hint of rum. In summer, you’ll find refreshing ice cream and sorbets, ideal on a warm day of sightseeing.

Something for everyone

The bakery also offers vegan and gluten-free pastries, making it welcoming for a wide range of dietary needs without compromising on flavor.

Why go?
Because Banketbakkerij Lanskroon isn’t just a bakery—it’s a taste of real Amsterdam. One bite of their stroopwafels explains everything.
