Millie Vanillie — Restaurant in Amsterdam

A Must-Visit Café for Coffee and Pastry Lovers! We had the most delightful experience at this café – so much so that we visited two days in a row! The coffee is absolutely delicious, perfectly brewed with a rich and smooth flavor. But the real stars of the show are the pastries. The cinnamon buns are an absolute highlight – soft, gooey, and bursting with flavor. And the cardamom buns? Simply unforgettable! Everything is incredibly fresh and baked on-site, filling the air with the most heavenly aroma. The service is a solid 10/10! The staff are incredibly kind, attentive, and radiate a calming, welcoming energy that makes the whole experience even more enjoyable. We were particularly impressed by a German student working there – he was so friendly and helpful, truly going above and beyond to make our visit special. The café is clearly loved by many, as there was already a queue at 10 a.m. – but it’s worth every second of the wait! The popularity is a testament to just how amazing everything is, from the baked goods to the ambiance. We can't recommend this café enough. It’s a little slice of heaven, and we’ll definitely be coming back on...

Small local bakery. Simplistic modern interior design. Only 1 small bench available in the bakery. 1 small bench outside and theres a slightly bigger picnic table available outside oppisite the bakery.

Pistachio bun: Not bad. chewy and a bit soft. cardamom bun: I heated this up at home. I enjoyed it. strong cardamom taste and not too sweet. Not super soft but it had a slight chewiness to it so i still enjoyed it. (update: went back and the bun was a lot softer and nicer the 2nd time!) mini sourdough: my partner said it was very sour compared to other sourdough and his mouth kept making more saliva due to the sourness, but he enjoyed it. ham and cheese croissant: Really buttery croissant and it was nice. Decent size. My partner said its the best ham and cheese croissant he's had. almond croissant: large in size. thin layer of almond paste inside the croissant. Not too sweet and the almond isnt too overbearing. chai latter: normal, not too sweet. theres no lid so you should drink it before you set off or drink it whilst walking. cappuccino: my partner said it was quite nice.

This is hands down the best bakery in Amsterdam - with its delicious sourdough crusty rustic bread which is fluffy and moist on the inside. Other than bread and pastries, there’s great specialty to-go coffee; fantastic iced lattes, hug-in-a-cup cappuccinos, and strong flat whites and espressos (of course with your choice of organic cows milk or Roa oat milk). The pastries include scones, cinnamon and cardamon buns, and also ones with toasted pistachio and velvety custard. I believe these buns qualify as the epitome of comfort food. Their gooey sweetness is simply unmatched, making them the best I’ve ever had!

Millie Vanillie might be a bit on the outskirts of town but nonetheless a great area to explore. And definitely worth it for the delicious coffee and...
