De Bakkerswinkel

De Bakkerswinkel, located at Roelof Hartstraat 68 H in Amsterdam-Zuid, has been established at this address since 1999 according to its own location information. The shop is situated in Oud-Zuid, near the Museumkwartier. The company page states that Irma Hogendoorn joined the branch in 1999, shortly thereafter became a co-owner, and is now the owner. Koen Buntsma joined later and is responsible for the homemade baked goods.

The Amsterdam branch is part of a broader concept. An interview about De Bakkerswinkel describes how the first shop was opened in 1981 in Zoetermeer by Piet Hekker and Tony de Jong. In that same interview, the concept is described as a meeting place centered around people, product, and environment, with an emphasis on simplicity in flavor. The branch in Zuid translates this into an offering of breakfast, lunch, and high tea, with homemade scones, cakes, and quiches as staples.

According to the supplier information, the establishment serves Panamaria beans from BOOT Koffie. The same page explicitly mentions black coffee, espresso, and cappuccino. The current menu expands this selection to include coffee, espresso, cappuccino, koffie verkeerd or latte, latte macchiato, and iced coffee. Additionally, the menu notes that oat milk or soy milk can be added for an extra charge.

Coffee also plays a role in curated packages. Coffee is an option with breakfast sets, and it is part of the offering in the Royal Afternoon Tea. This suggests that coffee is primarily embedded within a broader hospitality concept, rather than a specialized focus on various brewing methods. No documentation was found in the publicly available information regarding manual filter methods such as V60, Chemex, or batch brew.

A significant part of the concept revolves around shared dining experiences. The high-tea page lists three high-tea arrangements and links them to occasions such as birthdays, promotions, and anniversaries. Furthermore, the FAQ section mentions that the large table in the lunchroom accommodates up to fourteen people. For larger groups, the site states that arrangements can be made with the company.

In addition to dine-in service, the establishment also offers catering. For high-tea catering, tableware, cutlery, and tiered stands are also available for rent. The price list also mentions a group lunch arrangement. The official pages also list takeout options, including breakfast, high tea, lunch boxes, and a picnic box. This points to a business model where the establishment functions not only as a lunchroom but also focuses on group orders and off-site consumption.

No public documentation was found in the available information regarding workshops, tastings, exhibitions, or a recurring public events calendar. The emphasis is therefore on regular hospitality, group packages, and catering, rather than a visible public program centered around coffee or education.

Public information regarding sustainability is primarily linked to suppliers. In addition to BOOT Koffie, the supplier page mentions Betjeman & Barton for tea, Vlaamsch Broodhuys for sourdough bread, and Slagerij Louman, among others, for the bacon in the quiche Lorraine. The same page states that both De Bakkerswinkel and BOOT Koffie value quality and sustainability. The establishment also mentions that they collaborate with local entrepreneurs.

The menu further lists several organic products, including organic yogurt, organic apple juice, and organic apple-elderberry juice. BOOT Koffie’s product information for Panamaria describes the coffee as shade-grown coffee from indigenous rainforest, where native trees are replanted to support the soil and the habitat for birds and other animals. A separate, location-specific sustainability policy is not detailed in the publicly available documents.

The location in Amsterdam-Zuid frequently appears in editorial overviews of high tea and city guides. A profile from 2013 mentions the Roelof Hartstraat as the first Amsterdam location of De Bakkerswinkel. In 2016, the address was included in an overview of Amsterdam locations. Later, the name also appeared in a cake overview from 2025. In 2019, De Bakkerswinkel was featured in a round-up of high-tea spots in Amsterdam, and in February 2026, De Bakkerswinkel Oud-Zuid was mentioned again in an overview of high-tea locations, with Irma Hogendoorn and Koen Buntsma named as the operators.

Specific prices or awards for the Amsterdam-Zuid location are not documented in the available source text. The visibility of the establishment is therefore based primarily on inclusion in city lists and profiles, rather than publicly listed awards. Within this context, De Bakkerswinkel emerges as a long-established lunchroom chain where coffee is part of a broader offering of breakfast, lunch, high tea, and homemade pastries.
