Het Badhuis

We had a private party upstairs. Highly recommended. And that’s all I have to say about it.

We nearly missed this place as we’d used Unilocal to look for a café for an afternoon drink and snack. The «bath house» did not show up as it is listed as a French Restaurant but when our first option washed out (sic) because of an opening times mixup with Unilocal we were back tracking and came across Badhuis — it looked very welcoming and there were lots of people outside enjoying the sun so we decided to stop in and were glad that we did so.
First the service. The young lady running around serving the large number of customers was welcoming, spent time with us without feeling rushed but was patently doing an amazing job of keeping dozens of customers happy. In all the time we were there she never seemed to drop the ball, was always responsive to any requests that we had and was everything you could have asked for of a server — even checking in as she passed to make sure all was OK.
From a food and drink perspective we had beers (she ensured that we selected the right size as some of the standard Dutch options are a bit tiny for us Brits!) and a couple of the very good sandwich options. The tuna melt focaccia with (nicely spicy) jalapeño mayo was very good as was the carpaccio sandwich combo. We also added a side order of fries which were great but no way could we finish them all.
An unexpected treat. Great service, very good food (good value) and excellent surroundings sitting watching the world go by.
Delightfully grump free and well deserving 5 stars!

Nice converted bathhouse!
This is comforting food nothing extraordinary; burger was way too cooked — a rarity in holland — but the fries were PERFECT !
Would not cross the city to return, but worth a stop if you are in the neighborhood and hungry or thirsty or both

Note: This is solely for drinks.
This place is cray inside. It’s an old bathhouse and the set up of the building reflects that.
What I love about it is there are all sorts of options for where you can choose to sit. Outside, to the left, upstairs, to the right… find yourself a nice little corner somewhere and just hang.
In the summer they have loads of tables outside and it’s a really fun place to enjoy the sunshine with a cold drink and watch the day go by. Definitely one of my safe hangs in my neighborhood.

Great place with tasty food and a cozy ambience. It’s especially nice to sit by the fireplace they have inside. It’s very welcoming and can have you sitting there for hours chatting with your friends or even reading a book or working on your own.

We come here often. Nice lunches, nice for no nonsense good diner too. Great no thrills but still nice food. Really cool venue! Nice staff. Fantastic terrace. And they have a fireplace! One of our favorites.

Decent food and quite a nice atmosphere, but laughably rude service even for Holland (at least if you don’t speak Dutch). Would probably recommend it more for a summer lunch than a dinner date.

Public bath in the past and a gathering place for the locals, now a relaxed café/​restaurant (in A’dam East, in the «indies neighborhood»). Especially nice is the terrace on a sunny afternoon.
We were at the vintage market in the neighborhood (at Javaplein) and then decided to refresh with smoothies at Badhuis. The smoothie of the day — beetroot&celery was very attempting, but unfortunately they didn’t have anymore left… so we ordered banana smoothies — were just ok, nothing special. I liked their white house wine and the glasses it was served. We wanted to order food as well, but it was around 5, bad timing — too late for lunch and dinner was not served yet, only borrels — fried snacks, so we skipped food. The service was ok, by accident one of the waitresses spilled white wine on a customer but she handled it well;he accepted her friendly honest apologize and the guy even got a badhuis t-​shirt as a gift. Nice escape from the busy, touristic center!

With the outdoor benches, this is a great place for a quick lunch or to sit around and enjoy weather. Granted, there isn’t much people watching as the area is not very busy.
I would recommend the open face sandwich with steak tartar, hard boiled egg, chives, and cornichon. The food is not cheap, but Amsterdam in general is not.

As someone who lives around the corner, the Badhuis is a lovely spot to have as a backyard. It’s a great space with a large partio and cool décor, perfect for grabbing a drink.
I went here to do some work and was happy to discover the free wifi. I was not, however, impressed by the food. The spinach and melted brie salad was good, but € 8.50 for a small serving is not worth it. I also found the service to be rushed and not particularly warm, but they were all right.
Definitely a spot to bring friends or to grab a drink solo, but pass on the food. That said, I look forward to another sunny day to sit outside and enjoy the patio.

Nice relaxed atmosphere, friendly waiter, good music (some relaxed 60s and 70s stuff).
Food was quite good, prices are not cheap, but Ok.
Try the fresh fruit juices.

Ein Café-​Restaurant im Stadtteil Zeeburg, welches in einem ehemaligen Badehaus untergebracht ist. Vom Einrichtungsstil und von der Aufmachung her schon ein Knaller, wenngleich dieses Lokal auch ein bisschen außerhalb liegt. Das Personal ist locker, stets bemüht mit den Gästen ein paar Worte zu wechseln (ohne sie zu nerven), professionell und aufmerksam. Die Speisekarte ist nicht besonders groß aber die Gerichte, die angeboten sind doch abwechslungs– und einfallsreich. Die Desserts sind, wie überhaupt in Holland, ein Highlight (hatte dort einen Sticky Toffee Cake mit Nüssen ein Traum).
Auch der Mint-​Tee (frische Pfefferminze in heißem Wasser) ist ein Knaller, den ich so noch nicht kannte und auf jeden Fall auch zu Hause genießen werde (soweit reichen meine Kochkünste gerade noch).
