Why Albert Cuyp Market matters
The Albert Cuyp is where Amsterdam shops and snacks. Stalls run along the street selling vegetables, cheese, flowers, clothes and street food. Try a warm stroopwafel made in front of you, a bite of Dutch herring or a bag of fresh fries. It is loud, friendly and very local, and it is a fun alternative to the museum queue.
Talking points
- Stroopwafels are baked fresh at stalls.
- It runs on most days except Sundays.
- It is in the De Pijp neighbourhood, full of cafes and restaurants.
