CITIEZ allDayCafé

CITIEZ allDayCafé is located at Osdorpplein 372-A in Amsterdam Nieuw-West. The café serves as the central communal space of CITIEZ Hotel Amsterdam. The hotel and café opened in June 2016. A trade publication reported the opening later that year, in September 2016.

No separate founder is publicly recorded for the café. Jean-Paul de Mol is named as the owner of CITIEZ Hotel Amsterdam, but available information does not confirm that he founded the café. Kroonenberg Groep and Revotels were involved as clients in the hotel project. D/DOCK handled the design and interior.

The hotel concept features 71 rooms with urban themes and a café that is accessible all day. In its own description, the design references cities, architecture, and city dwellers. The café functions as a so-called eatery shop. The offering includes breakfast, drinks, salads, snacks, and light meals.

The published opening hours indicate continuous operation, seven days a week. This allows the space to serve multiple functions for hotel guests and other visitors. Available sources describe the café primarily as part of the hotel. A standalone positioning within the Amsterdam coffee sector is not extensively documented.

The café serves EARTH Coffee, developed in collaboration with the Dutch coffee roaster Mocca d’Or. CITIEZ and EARTH Concepts describe the coffee as an organic espresso blend of 100% arabica beans. However, there is no clear public information regarding the countries of origin.

The pages of CITIEZ and EARTH mention Guatemala, Peru, and Nicaragua. The current product page of Mocca d’Or lists Peru, Mexico, and Guatemala. As a result, the current composition of the blend cannot be independently verified. This is relevant for coffee drinkers, as origin can influence taste and product information.

The café website speaks of freshly brewed barista coffee and notes that the espresso blend is suitable for various preparations. Specific brewing methods are not mentioned. Information on pour-over, AeroPress, Chemex, cafetière, batch brew, or cold brew is absent. No current public menu was found listing individual drinks such as espresso, cappuccino, flat white, or latte.

EARTH Concepts and Mocca d’Or designate the espresso blend as organic. EARTH also mentions an EKO certification. According to Mocca d’Or, the entire net profit from EARTH Coffee, EARTH Tea, and EARTH Water goes to water projects. CITIEZ also refers to this goal in its description of the served products.

At the supplier level, it is specified that the coffee is roasted slowly. The packaging is also stated to be free of aluminium and PVDC. According to the supplier, biodegradable paper cups are available for takeaway concepts. The café does not separately confirm which packaging or cups are currently in use at this location.

For breakfast, CITIEZ highlights fresh and local products. This includes fruit, organic yoghurt, cheese, ham, bakery items, juices, and organic tea. However, the names of farms, bakeries, or other producers are not provided. Additionally, there is no public documentation of direct trade relationships with coffee farmers or specific procurement controls.

The café is located in the shopping area around Osdorpplein, near WestMarket and other local businesses. CITIEZ states its intention to incorporate local flavours and locally sourced breakfast products. However, the sources do not provide further details on structured collaborations with entrepreneurs in the immediate vicinity.

At the hotel level, there are relationships with De Meervaart Theatre and Conference Centre, Amsterdam RAI, and the World Fashion Centre. These connections relate to accommodation, travel, or business activities. No separate role for the café is documented. Workshops, coffee tastings, exhibitions, or other café programmes are also not publicly documented.

Available publications primarily focus on the hotel project. Sleeper described the opening and the parties involved. The project database Gebouwd in Amsterdam also registers the hotel as a project from 2015–2016. BudgetTraveller mentioned the hotel and its all-day café in an article about affordable stays.

Mentions on travel and booking platforms are mostly directory data. They do not constitute independent recognition of the coffee offering. Café prices, barista competition results, or listings in specialized coffee rankings are not publicly documented. Based on the available information, CITIEZ allDayCafé is therefore best characterized as a hotel café with an organically described espresso blend and a broad dining function.
