A Guide to My Favorite Neighbourhood
Bairros
Most visitors to Amsterdam often only stay at the touristic city center, which is such a shame. Here is a guide to Oud-West Amsterdam, my favorite neighborhood.

Small bites
Our go to place for a drink! Also possible to come for coffee, tea and a work session.
The sunny terrace spreads over the deck into the canal water. No matter what time of the day, this place is busy with locals and cool people. Great for drinks, coffee and a bite.

Hyped hyped bakery stop! Must try their croissants (topped with ice cream during summer!) Expect a line (goes quickly) on the weekend!
Sourdough bread is proofed here for 26 hours (!) for extra lightness, flavour development and good digestibility. Plus they bake all those breads, cakes and croissants right in front of your eyes.
Everything is super fresh to take home, or eat in front with a nice coffee for a good people watching. If you're lucky during summer, you may try their croissant-ice-creams!

Part of must-do lists of Amsterdam, the Foodhallen hosts curated international cuisine in a lively atmosphere with Djs on some days.
Food is okay and it's sometimes too crowded with tourists which makes it hard to find a seat. But we still think it's worth to drop by for some snacks and drinks.
Bonus: there's also a cinema!
Bonus2: many people don’t know, but at the back in the Kanary restaurant there are workstations and a sand area for summer vibes

Our go to burger place! If we're honest, we've been mostly ordering in from here, but the atmosphere is also nice for dine-in.

Another hyped bakery shop. Great to sit outside with a coffee to people watch and catch the vibe of the cool Amsterdamers. Btw, their burrata sandwich is delicious!

Dinner & drinks place of the cool Amsterdam kids. The food I find a little bit hit and miss, but the vibe is always nice: views on the park and has an extensive wine selection
Local tip: they just opened a bakery next door, that often hosts tapas and wine tastings

When we want a notch more lively atmosphere, we go to the Karavaan. A large outdoor terrace and cozy indoor seating area makes it the spot for gatherings for many people, weekdays included.

Shopping
Vintage and second hand stores are the foundation of Amsterdam's fashion. The city's style is casual, easy-going that prioritises comfort above all. This is a nice shop to get a feel for it.

It's nearly impossible to enter this shop and not buy anything. From home decoration, to food and cleaning supplies. It's minimalistic, affordable and extremely cute!

If you're caught off guard with the weather and need to buy some clothes layers for the cold, this is our go to shop for quality basics.
As a Brazilian living in a colder place, I live off their thermal leggings and undershirt.
