The Miners Coffee Oud-West

The Miners Coffee Oud-West is located at Tollensstraat 53A in Amsterdam Oud-West. The location is publicly known as The Miners Oud West, Amsterdam. The business is part of The Miners, a specialty coffee chain founded in Prague, according to public company information. In that same public data, Egor Kolpakov and Oldřich Valta are listed as the founders of the brand. Kolpakov is publicly identified as the CEO of The Miners, while Valta appears in public profiles as a co-founder.

According to available source information, the chain opened its first location in March 2019. For the Dutch market, Laura Pérez Castro and Saken Maksut are mentioned in public LinkedIn posts as the local partners who opened the first The Miners in the Netherlands. A more detailed publicly documented history of the Amsterdam location is not present in the provided material. Nor is an exact opening date for the bar in Oud-West publicly listed, although public posts and trade media place the opening in 2025.

In its own communications, The Miners describes the concept as a cultural or urban hub centered around coffee. According to that description, the emphasis lies on coming together, exchanging ideas, and working on projects. This image makes it clear that in its public presentation, the establishment is seen not just as a coffee bar, but as a meeting place. Exactly how this concept is implemented in the daily practice of the Amsterdam location is only partially evident from the available public information.

The official menu of The Miners Oud-West shows a fairly clear coffee profile. Espresso and batch brew are listed as the primary brewing methods. Additionally, various espresso-based drinks are on the menu, including americano, cappuccino, latte, flat white, and cortado. The menu also lists espresso tonic. Furthermore, the same public menu indicates that decaf coffee is available at no extra cost, as are alternative milk options.

In addition to coffee, the location serves other hot and cold beverages. The public menu list includes chai latte, matcha latte, tea, hot chocolate, iced latte, iced coconut matcha, and lemonade. This provides a broader picture of the beverage offering, also for visitors who do not choose espresso or filter coffee. Moreover, in social media references surrounding the Amsterdam location, Rum Baba is mentioned in connection with the coffee served there. No other publicly documented partnerships with Amsterdam roasters were found in the source material.

Public information regarding activities shows that The Miners also uses the café for gatherings and recurring programs. At the brand level, official company information mentions The Miners Run and cuppings as part of their activities. For the Oud-West location, separate events can also be found publicly. This creates the image of a coffee bar that also provides space for gatherings related to sports, tasting, and informal social encounters.

Public event listings, for example, showcase SAKE & SOUND and SAKE CLUB programming at The Miners Coffee Oud-West. According to the provided information, these gatherings were co-organized with SAKE CLUB and Utage Sake Bar. The descriptions mention five selected sakes and Japanese bites. Furthermore, public announcements highlight the café as a meeting point for running groups, including meetups for Auran Run Club and a memorial/social run. Instagram snippets also reveal a brunch collaboration with tafel.89. There is no available material documenting workshops or exhibitions specifically for this location.

Regarding sourcing and sustainability, the source material primarily provides information at the corporate level rather than the location level. In its official company description, The Miners states that they work exclusively with specialty coffee and that sourcing is done directly from farmers. Additionally, the company mentions that it crowdfunded compostable capsules compatible with Nespresso machines. While this speaks to the broader positioning of the brand, it offers limited insight into the operational choices of the Oud-West location.

For Amsterdam, Rum Baba is the only specifically mentioned partner in the provided material. Further details regarding origin, contract types, traceability, waste streams, or energy usage for the Oud-West location are not publicly documented in the provided text. Consequently, part of the sustainability story remains open at the store level. Those looking strictly at the available source information can determine what the brand communicates about the supply chain as a whole, rather than what the Amsterdam shop implements individually.

The Oud-West location has already established a certain level of visibility in the public sphere. European Coffee Trip has a dedicated listing for the café and includes it in broader guides for Amsterdam and the Netherlands. Additionally, The Miners Coffee appeared in a list of Amsterdam take-out coffee spots by Barts Boekje, where the concept was linked to its Prague origins and the idea of an urban meeting place. Such mentions indicate a presence in guides and editorials that follow the specialty coffee sector.

The name also appeared in Dutch hospitality media. De Buik van Amsterdam included The Miners in an overview of new coffee shops in Amsterdam, mentioning the address in West. Misset Horeca listed The Miners Coffee, Amsterdam in an overview of hospitality businesses that opened in October 2025. At the brand level, The Miners further refers to publications in CzechCrunch, World Coffee Portal, and Forbes, alongside awards for other locations. A separate list of prizes or distinctions for Oud-West itself was not found in the provided sources.
