IJscuypje

I’m getting sad: it’s cold in Amsterdam, IJscuypje is closing earlier and earlier (in July/​Aug, I usually see them stay open until 10pm!), and to add insult to injury, they slap a sign on there to let me know that Nov 2^nd is when they’re switching over to Stamppotje!
So before that happens, I really do have to give it up for my favorite little gelato shop — there’s a reason there’s always a line trailing out the door of this place: it’s YUMMY! I’ve not had a bad flavor here, my favorites have got to be the coconut and orange yogurt, cup or cone, can’t go wrong!
Goodbye until next summer… I’ll just take my sad little self down the block for a cup of mashed potatoes and veg. :(

Off the hook crazy good! We kept passing this place during our stay in the nine streets area. It always had a line out the door. The flavor options are great. I highly recommend coconut (with real chunks of coconut) and the salted caramel combo. Every flavor seems popular though, as the pans were all almost empty when we stopped by around 8pm on a Friday night.

incredible ice cream. one of the best I ever had.

Ijscuypje has become one of the ice cream place to go in Amsterdam. They started with a small shop and over the last few years they have opened several locations in all parts of Amsterdam!
Their flavours range from the classic chocolate to the delicious & traditional Dutch speculaas. I personally like ice cream with nuts or other «bits» in it and for that I recommend the vanilla and cookie one. The grapefruit sorbet is also highly recommendable. On a sunny day it is very usual to see people queueing outside waiting my for their turn to order. Some highly recommendable is enjoying your ice cream while you sit in the canal right in front of the shop and you take in the beautiful scenery!

This place has some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had-​and I eat a lot of ice cream. Fun flavors (pear, banana, mango, chocolate chip cookie) and they were all delicious and so creamy but not super sweet and we didn’t spoil our dinner we ate shortly after. Service was okay, but the ice cream was worth the wait!

IJscuypje is loved by all (not just tourists like me). I saw many children here brought by their parents after school. Lucky kids. What a treat!
The sorbet is delicious, soft, and flavorful. We shared a single scoop of blood orange. It was slightly tart but perfect in every way, especially the rich orange red tone. The cone was different from the kind sold in the USA. The IJscuypje cone was tall and slender. Nonetheless, delicious!
This ice cream shop is tiny. It has a few stools by the window but not much room for anything or anyone else. We took a seat but I imagine it would just as nice to walk by the canals with ice cream in hand.
The flavors are varied and simple with the sorbets more fruity. Chocolate cookies, hazelnut, apple, mango… Mix and match or be a purist. IJscuypje is worthy enough for repeat visits!

Das Eis dort ist wohl besser als in Italien. Es sind täglich andere Sorten im Angebot, aber meien Favoriten «Dunke Schokolade» & «Vanille» waren immer verfügbar. Die Kugel nicht ganz billig aber die 1,50 € alle mal wert.

Just an average sort of ice cream shop with a good flavor variety. There’s no seating though so you have to eat it outside or get it to go.

There’s always a line going out the door to this place owing to the popularity of their ice cream. They have a nice selection of flavors and not so many that your mind gets boggled on what to order. Regardless, go in order your ice cream on a cone or in a cup then have a stroll or a sit nearby as they’re located in a beautiful area of the Prinsengracht canal.

Went here for pre-​dinner dessert around 8pm, so the place wasn’t busy at all.
They had a lot of flavors (I think some rotate, too) — but saw that they had pear sorbet. Normally I just get vanilla (which is surprisingly easy to mess up!), but since they had my second favorite I went for the pear. It was really, really good!
Pear might sound like a weird ice cream/​sorbet flavor but it’s actually good. It’s pretty refreshing on a hot day and the flavor isn’t overpowering or overly sweet like the chocolate chip-​cookie dough-​mint-​peanut butter-​carmel creations some places offer.
I approve :)

A tad expensive but the flavors are good. This location had a frightfully long line when I went there, chock full of people with children crawling in front of me instead of understanding the concept of personal space.
Also their freezers seem to be set warmer than normal, possibly for easier scooping. My 3-​scoop ice cream cone had to be licked all as one unit instead of allowing me to enjoy it one flavor at a time. Then at the end of the cone I was treated to a melted ice cream explosion when all the pooled melted ice cream was released all over my hand and chest. Major ice cream structural fail!

Just plain blow-​the-​doors-​off good ice cream in a super Centrum/​outer Jordaan location. Every flavor we tried was pitch-​perfect, from rich straciatelli and caramel to agonizingly pure fruit sorbetti. A great place to stop if you’re in the area… I understand they have several locations.

We were told this was the best ice cream in the city… I can’t speak to that since it’s the only ice cream I had during my visit, but it was very, very good! It was also quite busy, with tourists and locals, so I think we were on the right track.
The location, just adjacent to a canal in Jordaan, is perfect for relaxing with a cup or cone on a nice day.

Very delicious ice-​cream with flavours like apple pie, macaroon, chocolate cookies or spiced dutch cookie (spekulaas… my favourite!).
A MUST when you are in Amsterdam and you do love ice-​cream.
There are three other locations at Eerste van der Helststraat 27, Haarlemmerdijk 14 and Amstelveenseweg 218.

Ein Traum in Eis… zufällig auf den Laden gestoßen, mussten wir fortan täglich dorthin, was aufgrund der zentralen Lage, kein großer Umweg ist. Der Laden ist immer voll und es gibt tolle, teilweise täglich wechselnde Sorten. Die Bedienung ist sehr nett. Eine Kugel kostet 1,50, zwei 2,75 Euro — was aber den Preis wert ist.
