Athenaeum Boekhandel Spui en Nieuwscentrum
Book store
👍👍 The shop is great. I wish there was a shop like this in every city. The employer Marc is the best, and he knows so much stuff about magazines I’ve never heard of. Super good at presenting magazines. Could not leave the shop without buying an incredible book on queer culture. 😎

I Amsterdam Store
Tourist information center
👍 I got the digital card, but I’m reviewing here so I can give my thoughts. I bought the 72 hour card, which initially looked quite pricy until I found out the usual ticket prices of the museums here. The card saved me a lot of money and allowed me to visit places I’d normally be priced out of, like t...

bookstore Stumpel.nl
Book store
😠 Hele nare ervaring meegemaakt vandaag bij Stumpel Hoorn. Mijn twee jarige dochter en ik staan bij de kinderafdeling en terwijl ik op zoek ben naar een mooi kinderboek speelt zei wat met het losse speelgoed wat daar ligt. Terwijl ze op het kinderbankje kruipt komt een medewerker aangelopen en trekt h...

Boekhandel Plukker

👍👍 The people that work here are very nice and easy to talk to! They don't judge you for the books you buy. Which is awesome. They can always help you find the thing you are asking for. Personal experience.

Primera
Store
😠 Triest en boos!, Heb ik pasfoto's laten maken voor mijn paspoort bij Primera in Blokker. Worden deze afgekeurd door het gemeentehuis. Kan gebeuren. Dus toen maar snel op het gemeentehuis nieuwe foto's gemaakt die wel goedgekeurd werden. Heb ik een verklaring meegekregen dat de pasfoto's van Primera...

Primera
Tobacco shop
😠 Ongelooflijk dat deze man is elke keer heel onvriendelijk. Maybe he is racist. Maybe he doesn’t like kids. Maybe he doesn’t like his job. Or his wife. But This is the last time I’m going to put up with this rude man. Terrible service. Angry employees. I go in for passport photos for myself and my ki...

Venstra
Book store
👍👍 Not many book stores left like this. Knowledgeable people, great recommendations. Decent English section. Great kids section (almost all Dutch though). Nice coffee corner too (the red velvet cake, if available, is a great sweet lunch in itself).

The School of Life Amsterdam
Training centre
😐 I’m a big fan of the school of life, their books and publications in general. However, I find this particular place lacking in few points, that makes my visits pleasant.
First, the seating is quite uncomfortable and unpractical, especially for someone who come with a laptop to work. The bar seating...

Primera Polderplein Hoofddorp
Store
😠 Some of the staff can be quite nice and friendly except the woman who looks like she ate ten limes before coming to work who is always rude and very disrespectful. Quite frankly she barely knows what she’s doing being that she always needs to ask someone else. What a shame, she ruins it for everyon...

Reisboekhandel Pied à Terre
Book store
👍👍 Wonderful bookstore in the center of Amsterdam. They've recently combined forces with a store that focuses on travel maps and guides, especially those for biking and hiking. The best in the world that I've seen so far.
Planning a bike trip in Germany? They've got the maps and guides. Ditto for Fran...
