The Cottage

The Cottage is a great little spot in Amsterdam if you’re craving proper English pub fare, done just a notch nicer than you might expect. The menu covers all the classics—pies, fish and chips, roasts—comfort food that feels both hearty and well-prepared. The standout for me were the pies, both savory and sweet; definitely save room for a dessert pie. They’ve also got a solid selection of English ales on tap, which makes the whole experience feel even more authentic. It’s the kind of place where you can settle in, order a pint, and feel a little transported. One charming detail I loved: the fox behind the bar. It adds a bit of character and whimsy to the cozy pub vibe. All in all, a welcoming spot for comfort food and a pint, with just the right touch of polish. And good for those with home sickness

Came here looking for something different and got what we wanted. Shepherds pie (takes around 20 mins to be served) Scotch egg Scones Pretty tasty stuff, good coffee (stooker), very friendly staff, family owned business. Will also try the other things in the menu. Very happy experience overall.

Loved this neighborhood spot while traveling through Amsterdam! Yes they have an English menu. Try to sit outside if you can! The menu is great and great selection of beer. The customer service was superb! Recommend checking out for some good Dutch dishes.

Wow, the food is extraordinary here, they made the simplest granola bowl taste acidic and sweet and sour and delicious all together. The Scottish egg (tried for the first time) was definitely the highlight of this breakfast, so filling and full of flavors. Service quality was so good? Friendly and timely

We had the two dishes of the day: scrambled eggs with samba curry, and grilled sea bass. Both were perfectly cooked and seasoned with good texture. The pear caramel scone was also a delight with the home made orange/cardamom and blackcurrant jams. The service was friendly and quick. They also have a deli shop three doors down that sells even more of their goodies. Highly recommended.
