With branches at Singel 103 and Keizersgracht 465, Amsterdam’s first English breakfast, lunch and tea room offers a fresh take on traditional English delicacies in a warm and stylish setting. “I always loved English tea rooms but I didn’t like the tattiness of them,” recalls owner Daniel Post, who took charge in 2010. “I wanted to give the place a new feel,” adds the Dutchman, who developed his penchant for British cuisine while living in the UK. One of his biggest successes was the introduction of now ubiquitous favourites such as Eggs Royale, Eggs Benedict and Eggs Florentine to the menu.
