During a recent visit to Amsterdam, I had the pleasure of spending time with family at Toastable, a delightful eatery renowned for consistent triple-decker toasted sandwiches.
Toastable started in 2012, and the shop I visited felt unique and quirky, but apparently the brand now operates as a franchise in multiple locations, and I’m sure those visiting Amsterdam for it’s other well known products end up here later in the day and can see themselves opening up their own toasted sandwich store back wherever they normally live.
I opted to go for "The Legend," a signature sandwich featuring grilled chicken, crispy bacon, melted cheese, bell pepper, red onion, and a flavorful curry mayo. The blend of ingredients and the perfectly toasted bread made it clear why this sandwich is a signature sandwich - I really liked the mayo.
One of my companions chose "The Hangover" deal, which even if you’re not hungover is a good deal. It includes a crosti with bacon and egg, accompanied by a large fresh orange juice and an Americano. Another selection at our table was "The Ultimate Classic," a toasted sandwich combining ham with both young and aged Gouda cheeses, complemented by mustard mayo. It is a classic combo of flavours for a reason.
The sandwiches are good, but I thought the coffee was exceptional. Toastable's offers a simple menu and I would recommend a visit for a hearty breakfast, a leisurely brunch, or a quick coffee and snack.

Read moreWe came in our first day in Amsterdam, as it was on our way to a tour and we needed a quick bite, and we had to come back the last day. Good meal for a decent price, and one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. My friends had the original legend, and was amazing; I had the tuna melt myself both days. It's filling, but not simple sandiwches, they are full of flavour, with cool sauces and the cheese pull you will get it's insane! Staff was also really nice, there was the same guy both days we came and he was lovely, made us feel at home! Drinks are a bit more expensive if you compare them to the food prices, but the apple chai tea was like drinking baked apples with cinnamon, so delicious! If I come back to Amsterdam, I'll make sure...
Read moreThe restaurant is located in the heart of Amsterdam, the interior is very comfortable and the atmosphere quite nice. You don't get service at the table, you need to stand up and order but the food gets delivered to your place. The food itself was very satisfying, I had high expectations and the food was even better than imagined. Every sandwich consist of three layers of toast and massive amounts of toppings.They come in every combination possible. I think nobody gets out hungry of this restaurant and not without a comfortable feeling of home. The prices are great too, 8,5€ for the biggest sandwich. The only let down was that the big coffee is a bit small. But nevertheless if you are in Amsterdam it's a must go.
Best...
