About

Gartine is a cosy café tucked away in a side‑street near the iconic Spui square in Amsterdam’s bustling city centre. Its menu – from a hearty breakfast to a flavoursome lunch and an indulgent high‑tea – is built around fresh, organic produce that grows right in its own kitchen garden and surrounding orchard. The founders, Willem‑Jan and Kirsten, combine the slow‑food philosophy with seasonal ingredients such as truffle‑oiled vegetables, homemade biscuits, and eggs from their foundation‑partnered farm "Adopteer een kip". The intimate setting seats up to 24 guests, making it an ideal spot for a relaxed family brunch, a quiet business lunch, or a stroll‑away break from the city. The café opens Wednesday through Saturday from 09:30 to 16:00. Though no online booking is available, reservations are accepted by phone at 020 320 41 32. Children are welcomed and a selection of vegan and vegetarian dishes is offered, ensuring that every guest finds something they enjoy. Whether you’re a food‑enthusiast craving farmer‑to‑table gastronomy or simply looking for a peaceful corner in the heart of Amsterdam, Gartine delivers a memorable culinary experience rooted in sustainability and creativity.
