N.A.P. Amsterdam

N.A.P. Amsterdam is a hospitality venue located at the harbor of IJburg, in Amsterdam Oost. The establishment is publicly listed at Krijn Taconiskade 124, 1087 HV Amsterdam. According to its own information, N.A.P. has been established at this location since 2008, making it a long-standing part of the IJburg harbor scene.

Available information describes N.A.P. as a destination for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The establishment emphasizes hospitality, culinary dishes, a cozy atmosphere, and a welcoming environment for everyone. For a journalistic profile, it is particularly relevant that the concept extends beyond just coffee; N.A.P. operates as a café, bar, and restaurant all within one formula.

The names or backgrounds of the founders are not documented in the consulted public information. The establishment’s own page also does not mention specific individuals. The site does refer to years of experience in hospitality and creating a cozy atmosphere, though this phrasing remains general and provides no further details regarding ownership, the team, or management.

The location plays a clear role in the profile of N.A.P. The venue is situated in the harbor of IJburg, an area characterized by hospitality, businesses, and waterfront activities. Contact information notes that N.A.P. is accessible via tram 26 from Amsterdam Centraal. External mentions also place the establishment on the Krijn Taconiskade.

AmsterdamHeeftHet lists the location under the name NAP Eten & Drinken in the café and bar category, including GPS coordinates: 52.352932396813 and 5.0034087896347. Hallo IJburg lists N.A.P. as a business at the same address and mentions a harbor terrace, events, and live music.

For coffee lovers, the available information regarding the coffee is concrete, yet limited. Buscaglione Espresso is publicly linked to N.A.P. via Instagram search results from the establishment’s account. These snippets feature terms and hashtags such as Buscaglione, coffee, espresso, and cappuccino. However, the official website and the menu pages viewed do not mention the coffee roaster separately.

The lunch menu lists a category for coffee and tea, with prices starting from 3.35. Affogato is also featured on the lunch menu. The dinner menu likewise mentions affogato, but lists it under desserts. Consequently, coffee, tea, and affogato are publicly visible in the menu offerings. Espresso and cappuccino appear via Instagram snippets, rather than through a detailed coffee menu.

Specific brewing methods are not publicly documented in the sources reviewed. No mention was found of filter coffee, pour-over, AeroPress, batch brew, or cold brew. Information regarding grind size, bean profiles, single origin coffee, or rotating coffees is also missing from the available data. Based on these sources, N.A.P. cannot be described as an establishment with a publicly detailed specialty coffee program.

The menu information shows that N.A.P. operates more broadly than just hot drinks. The establishment serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the official lunch menu mentions various suppliers or product origins. These include Smit’s bonbons, ice cream from Weesp, eggs from Zorgboerderij Hogerlust, and Van Dobben bitterballen. Quandoo mentions Friet Hoes in connection with the fries served with the Black Angus burger.

A separate sustainability statement from N.A.P. was not found on their own website or menus. There is information available regarding Buscaglione, but this belongs to the coffee supplier itself. Buscaglione communicates about partnerships with specialized importers and coffee that is partially Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance, or NKG Verified Sustainable Sourcing certified or traceable. This is not an N.A.P.-specific claim.

Buscaglione also publishes information regarding a carbon footprint for BAR Blend beans. In doing so, the company cites an LCA study from October 2025 and a value of 9.30 kilograms of CO2 equivalent per kilogram of BAR Blend. Again, this is information from Buscaglione itself. The available sources do not show that N.A.P. uses this data in its own communications.

N.A.P. is linked in several local sources to activities beyond regular hospitality. AmsterdamHeeftHet mentions that weekends often feature activities with DJs, afterparties, and drinks evenings. Hallo IJburg refers to a calendar of events and live music. An Instagram snippet mentions a New Year’s drink on January 16 at 20:00 with DJ Mark the Machine.

The establishment is also listed with BIZ Haven IJburg. This organization brings together entrepreneurs in the harbor of IJburg and focuses on livability, management of public spaces, and activities throughout the year. Workshops, coffee tastings, or exhibitions specifically organized by N.A.P. were not found in the available public information.

N.A.P. appears in various local and tourist guides. Amsterdamian included the establishment in a 2023 article with local tips for Amsterdam, mentioning coffee, lunch, cocktails, and dinner. Amsterdam Spotted lists the address, opening hours, website, and social channels. Quandoo places N.A.P. Amsterdam in Amsterdam Oost within categories such as European, international, and food and drink.

No formal awards or accolades were found in the consulted public sources. Therefore, the profile of N.A.P. is primarily defined by its location, menus, local mentions, and limited online information about coffee. For readers who follow the specialty coffee sector, this limitation is particularly relevant: while the establishment offers publicly visible coffee drinks, it documents very little regarding origin, brewing methods, and coffee technique.
