Coffee and Cafés of Amsterdam (#)
„You enter into a well designed space which articulates its focus on coffee in every conceivable way - from a charmingly drawn mural of world-wide coffee production covering an entire wall to the appetising variety of beans in great see-through containers affixed behind the counter and the brilliant collection of exotic coffee paraphernalia displayed on glass enclosed shelves like a museum exhibition. In the rear of the shop a miniature coffee roaster fills the room with a seductive fragrance that sets the tone for a smallish café in the back. The drinks are expertly made by well-trained staff and consumed by regulars who know their coffee and are delighted to find a place like this in which to drink it. But the heart of Brandmeester's operation is downstairs which is where the packing and shipping of the coffee, equipment and supplies is consigned for their growing European mail-order business.“

„Café Magazine is the original coffeehouse magazine on the World Wide Web begun over a decade ago as an experimental mix of electronic communication and caffeinated bohemia. Our archives go right back to the wide eyed days of 1994 and includes information no longer online.“

„Inside, on the ground floor of the Film Museum, is the Cafe Vertigo. After working hours, around six to seven in the evening, the place is mobbed - no matter what day it is. Ordering a drink takes a bit of perseverance as everyone crushes up against the counter waving guilders at the hassled bartender.“

„The various locations tend to take on a pine-flavoured personality of their own, being as open and mellow as they can be without a whiff of coffeeshop herbaciousness.“
