Good beans Amsterdam

Isidore from Amsterdam

Hi! My name is Isidore and I was born and raised in Amsterdam. I have always been a curious person so I decided to make it my job! I am a journalist for a Dutch broadcaster and I make shows about breaking stigmas and about topics that are important in today's society. As a journalist, I also LOVE writing a lot.

Good beans Amsterdam

Best coffee on the go!

"Good beans belongs to the roastery of 'Fucking Strong Cofffee' and they make blends from beans all over the world. Their slogan: It's coffee, not caviar."

Are you a coffee snob? This is the place for you! Good beans is a little tiny teeny tiny coffee place in the city center. It belongs to the roastery of 'Fucking Strong Cofffee' and they make incredible blends from beans all over the world. Their slogan: It's coffee, not caviar. When you talk to one of the owners, Cody, you can really tell they want their coffee to be accessible to everybody, which I really like. They also have special blends for special occasions, such as the winterblend they release every year in December.

What I get most of the time when I go there is an iced latte with coconut milk. They usually have two types of beans for your espresso shot and Cody (the owner) always advises me on which bean suits my drink the best. He does this with everybody and always has a smile on his face while explaining everything.

As I said, the coffee place is small, so don't expect to have a seat at a table. But when the sun is out, the bench in front of the place is a really good place to sip your coffee!
