Here you buy the tastiest oliebollen in Amsterdam
Okay friends, now that the Saint is back in Spain and the last bags of ginger nuts, meringues, borstplaat, and marzipan are flying out of the store for a bargain, it’s time for something else delicious. The last weeks of the year have officially begun and we are shamelessly diving into the oliebollen stall. But where do you get the tastiest fried balls in the city? I’ve lined up the best spots for you.
1. Bakery Ad Straathof
A well-known name at the Ten Katemarkt is bakery Ad Straathof, where Ad not only bakes the best sourdough and Weesper mop but also pulls out the absolute tastiest oliebollen from the fat. Simply the best.
2. Garden Center Osdorp
Why can oliebollen only be made in December? At the oliebollen stall, it’s (almost) oliebollen time all year round. From oliebollen with or without currants to a filled version, and every day fresh from the fat.
3. Hartog’s Whole Wheat
This bakery is already known for its delicious freshly baked breads and other treats. The whole wheat oliebollen have become a well-known phenomenon, and they are also healthy. Okay, almost then, huh.
4. The Oliebollen Bakery
You can score the tastiest oliebollen and apple beignets at Beukenplein at the Bakkerszonen. A pop-up that you definitely don’t want to miss.
5. Remko’s bread & pastries
At Remko, you can be sure that you’ll get a fresh item in your hands. From the line, you can actually look right inside at the baker himself. You might have to wait in line for a bit, but it’s worth it.
6. Pastry Stall Verweij
With a solid 8.5, this stall came out on top in last year’s AD test. Yes, what more can I add? Off to Bijlmerplein.
7. Oliebollen Stall Hugo de Grootplein
According to the foodies from oliebollenkaart.nl, this oliebollen hotspot scores an average of 9, making it the best. Definitely not to be missed.
