Itinerary
Your tour begins at a historic bakery in De Pijp
Meet your local guide at Simon Meijssen, a three-generation Royal Warrant-holding bakery. Sink into a warm saucijzenbroodje, a flaky Dutch sausage roll, paired with rich coffee to fuel the morning ahead.
Wander through Albert Cuyp Market
Stroll into Amsterdam's most iconic open-air market, packed with 250-plus stalls of fresh produce, Dutch classics, and global street food. Soak up the buzz of De Pijp's food-lover heart as your guide sets the scene.
Sample Gouda at a beloved cheese stall
Stop at Johan Kaas inside the market to taste traditional Dutch Gouda. Learn why this creamy, slightly nutty cheese sits at the center of every Dutch lunch as the cheesemonger slices a wedge fresh for you.
Pick up Dutch-style ham at the butchery
Head to Alain Bernard Butchery for a slice of artisanal Dutch ham. Your guide explains how local butchers shape Amsterdam's everyday lunches and why quality cured meats anchor so much of Dutch food culture.
Build a savory pancake at Lunchroom Hannibal
Settle into cozy Lunchroom Hannibal for a freshly griddled Dutch pancake topped with the Gouda and ham you hand-picked at the market. Simple, comforting, and the kind of breakfast locals eat in the city.
Stroll De Pijp's art-soaked side streets
Walk past the Samuel Sarphati monument, the André Hazes statue, and the curving brick façades of the Amsterdam School. Hear how Sarphati, Dutch physician, reshaped public health and how Hazes, Dutch singer, became the voice of working-class Amsterdam.
Make your own stroopwafel from scratch
Then roll up your sleeves at a hands-on stroopwafel workshop. Learn the history of these thin caramel-filled waffles, press your own on the iron, then bite into it warm while the syrup is still soft inside.
Your tour ends at the Albert Cuyp Market
Wrap up on Albert Cuypstraat in the heart of De Pijp. Your guide can point you to nearby cafés, vintage shops, and canal-side walks so you can keep exploring this lively Amsterdam neighborhood at your own pace.

This tour was an incredible way to experience Amsterdam’s food scene! Walking through the Albert Cuyp Market with a local guide made all the difference- we got to taste the best stroopwafels, fresh cheeses, and other Dutch specialties we might have missed on our own.
Fun food tour!

We thoroughly enjoyed our food tour of the market area! Loved trying new and different foods while hanging out with a small group of tourists from around the globe. Awesome atmosphere, beautiful day and friendly guides. Loved the way Ennon incorporated history, culture and stories into the food presentations and it was great to have the other guides along to go ahead to pre-purchase food/drinks. We were a bit confused about the initial meeting point - I would suggest adding a more detailed description to the confirmation email including the cross streets such as: "Meet at the entrance to the market on Albert Cuypstraadt & Ferdinand Bolstraadt near the Dunkin Donuts & Metro stop. Fun way to spend time exploring and eating like a local!
