Coffee District

Coffee District started in 2017 as a hole in the wall coffee bar inside a fashion store in Amsterdam Zuid and became a café of its own when the store closed in 2019. The Willemsparkweg room is one of the group's cafés around the city, a bright wooden space with pendant lamps over a window counter, close to Vondelpark and built around the daily habit of a good cup.

The house coffee comes from Amsterdam's Five Ways, with a Coffee District blend made together, while guest roasters from around Europe rotate through espresso and filter. Pastries arrive from some of the best bakeries in town, and the shelves carry beans, reusable cups and brewing equipment from favorite brands. Every shot is weighed and the bar is kept spotless.
