OSLO amsterdam

OSLO amsterdam is publicly identifiable as a business located at Prinsenstraat 16 and 16h in Amsterdam Centrum. According to public business information, the company was founded in 2017. Public LinkedIn profiles name Kristina Larsdotter as the founder of OSLO amsterdam. Other founders or additional biographical details could not be found in the consulted public information. An official opening date for the current location on Prinsenstraat is also not publicly documented.

In its public business description, OSLO amsterdam presents itself as a wholesale bakery and deli in Amsterdam, featuring handmade buns that reference Scandinavian traditions. Additionally, its own website lists an offering of specialty coffee, tea, and matcha, alongside handmade buns and pastries. The site also mentions natural wine, cider, and sake for takeout. In doing so, the establishment combines bakery products, hot drinks, and a limited additional retail offering into one concept.

Within the beverage segment, public communication emphasizes specialty coffee, tea, chai, and matcha. Both the website and the public Instagram profile use these terms. Social posts also refer to bottled “OSLO chai” and a matcha latte made with ceremonial-grade matcha and homemade strawberry sauce. These posts primarily provide a glimpse of the assortment rather than a full or fixed drinks menu.

What is missing from the examined public sources is detail regarding the preparation in the cup. No publicly accessible mention was found of specific brewing methods such as espresso, filter coffee, or manual slow brew. Consequently, it remains unclear exactly how the technical coffee offering at the bar is structured. For readers who approach specialty coffee primarily through extraction, origin, and brewing method, this is a notable omission in the available documentation.

The most clearly documented coffee partnership is with Friedhats Coffee Roasters. Friedhats lists OSLO amsterdam as a retailer or reseller at their Prinsenstraat location. De Buik also links the establishment to Friedhats in its profile. This provides concrete evidence of the roaster associated with OSLO within the researched sources. No other roasteries or suppliers for their coffee preparation are publicly recorded in this material.

Regarding its broader positioning, OSLO uses the terms “organic and sustainable” in its public business description. Additionally, public Instagram and press descriptions state that the bakery works with organic and biodynamic ingredients. No OSLO-specific details were found regarding coffee origin, contract types, or direct trade at the farm level. Friedhats does, however, have a public sourcing statement stating that the company purchases coffee directly from producers and through trusted importers in Europe. However, this is a statement from the roaster and not a separate sourcing policy from OSLO amsterdam.

On its own website, OSLO has a dedicated page for events, collaborations, and pop-ups. This shows that the establishment hosts private events, collaborations, and temporary initiatives, indicating a role that extends beyond regular over-the-counter sales. Public announcements from 2026 also demonstrate that this event role is put into practice through diverse collaborations centered around coffee and the tasting experience.

The following activities emerged from the researched public announcements:

This list shows that OSLO connects itself, at least temporarily, to tastings, pop-ups, and collaborations with external parties. Public information does not make it clear how frequently such activities occur over the course of a full year.

OSLO amsterdam also appears in various editorial and guide-style publications. Condé Nast Traveller included OSLO on 9 November 2024 in an overview of bakeries and cafés in Amsterdam. Your Little Black Book mentioned OSLO on 28 May 2025 in a list of Scandinavian restaurants in Amsterdam. The same platform mentioned OSLO again on 21 January 2026, this time in an overview of cinnamon buns. Additionally, the establishment is listed on De Buik, including the address in Amsterdam Centrum and the link to Friedhats.

Together, these public data points sketch a business operating at the intersection of specialty coffee, bakery, and Scandinavian-inspired food and drink culture. At the same time, part of the profile remains limited in public sources. Specifically, there is little concrete public material regarding exact brewing methods, detailed coffee procurement, and a precise opening history of the current shop. For a journalistic profile, this means that OSLO amsterdam is highly visible as a concept and location, but is less transparently documented regarding some technical details of its coffee offering.
