Food Scene

You can’t miss De Bakkerswinkel (The Bakery) on the grounds of Amsterdam’s Westergasfabriek (Western Gas Factory). Great place to enjoy a coffee and their delicious homebaked scones, breads or high tea. Go there before or after a walk through the park and bring your kids too. Best time to go is in the morning or afternoon as it's packed during lunch. If the weather is good you can also get take-away and sit outside or in the park.
