De Deli Plantagebuurt

De Deli Plantagebuurt is located at Plantage Kerklaan 41 in Amsterdam. According to public information, this location is part of a business with two sites in the city. The establishment previously operated under the name Borrl Kitchen. This former name is relevant, as a portion of the publicly documented history, media coverage, and supplier information can still be found under that branding.

The earliest public records date back to the autumn of 2016. A contact page for Borrl Kitchen appeared in late September 2016, while a publication from October 2016 announced that the business would open on October 28 of that year. There is no separate public record of a specific opening date for the transition to the De Deli brand name.

Under the previous name Borrl Kitchen, Remi Oerlemans and Lucas Bok were listed as contact persons. In a neighborhood interview from 2025, Remi Oerlemans is identified as the owner of De Deli Plantagebuurt. Publicly available information regarding Oerlemans’ professional background indicates he comes from the world of events and marketing, having built approximately twenty years of experience in event organization. No separate public profile was found for Lucas Bok in the sources reviewed.

According to the same later explanation, the business started as Borrl Kitchen and shifted its format during the pandemic. During that phase, a deli component was added, followed by a rebranding and renovation. In its current positioning, the establishment combines delicatessen, local flavors, and international influences. The business integrates this into an offering of breakfast, lunch, drinks, and catering, with an emphasis on fresh, local ingredients.

For coffee enthusiasts, the most relevant detail is the visible coffee partner. Recent social media posts from 2025 name Lot Sixty One Coffee Roasters as the current coffee partner. A post from May 13, 2025, also refers to a new selection of Lot61 products, including coffee, chocolate bars, and a “filter pour over DIY”. Consequently, filter pour over is the only explicitly mentioned alternative brewing method in the available public information.

Other coffee-related details remain limited and are described in fairly functional terms. The official website mentions coffee, coffee to go, and coffee paired with pastel de nata. An older city listing under the name Borrl Kitchen also mentioned coffee and tea to go. A full, current coffee menu, information on espresso setups, or a broader list of brewing methods is not publicly documented in the available material.

Alongside coffee, several other products frequently appear in public descriptions of the establishment. These include pastel de nata, croissants, flammkuchen, deli tasting platters, and various sandwiches. These products paint a mixed profile where coffee is part of a broader hospitality concept, rather than a model exclusively focused on specialty coffee.

The location also serves as a venue for private gatherings. The business’s own communication mentions that De Deli Plantagebuurt is available as an event space in the evenings. Social channels refer to private events, and in the neighborhood interview, Oerlemans stated that birthdays and drinks can take place after 6:00 PM with exclusive use of the venue. As such, the establishment serves both a daytime function and an evening role within the neighborhood.

Public information also mentions catering and a so-called “Edible Landscape” format for events. At the same time, the consulted sources lack evidence of publicly documented workshops, open tastings, or exhibitions. Consequently, community ties seem to be primarily fostered through neighborhood use, private gatherings, and local networks of entrepreneurs, museums, and residents. Local neighborhood platforms also included the business in their entrepreneur directories and walking tours.

Regarding sourcing, De Deli employs its own R50 approach. By this, the business means that it primarily works with suppliers within a 50-kilometer radius. According to the public description, this approach is linked to seasonal produce, supporting the local community, and reducing the ecological footprint. The catering page further mentions that they work with a set of selected partners.

These partners are not individually named on the current site. For coffee, the situation is more concrete. In recent communications, Lot Sixty One is the documented partner. Historical reports from 2016, when the business still operated as Borrl Kitchen, named Stooker as the coffee supplier. Beyond these coffee partners and the general R50 explanation, the available material does not provide a comprehensive overview of current suppliers.

The public visibility of the location has been spread over several years. In 2016, attention was given to the opening under the name Borrl Kitchen in lifestyle and city media. This was followed by mentions in directories of delicatessens and caterers at the same address. In 2025, a neighborhood portrait of Remi Oerlemans appeared as part of a series on faces from the Plantage. Formal awards or professional distinctions are not publicly recorded in the available sources.
