01OBA Oosterdok
library143 OosterdokskadeWi‑FiPowerWork 100
Named in 5 Reddit threads.
"OBA Oosterdok - Public Library" is a good place to work, it's quiet, free and sells coffee. I think there's a small fee for wifi.
r/digitalnomadAugust 2023 02Kanarie Club
café51 BellamypleinPowerWork 100
Kanarie Club In the foodhallen in the west. Beautiful huge space with lots of places to plug in
r/AmsterdamNovember 2022 03The Hoxton
caféHerengracht, GrachtengordelWork 100
The Hoxton has a nice hotel lobby. I'm not sure what their hours are like for laptop workers, but I assume they're open late. They have plenty of space upstairs and downstairs.
r/AmsterdamMarch 2022 04The Social Hub Coworking Amsterdam City
coworking spaceWibautstraat 131D★ 4.6Wi‑FiWork 100
They had lots of open spaces, good Wi-Fi, and didn’t check if people were guests or not.

05Buro De Pijp
coworking space72-H Eerste Jan SteenstraatWork 100
Buro de Pijp is 4 euros per hour, its a desk/ coffee bar mix, not bad at all, but its in the Pijp so you probably got to metronor tram there (or get ov bike)
r/AmsterdamJuly 2023 06De Balie
caféKleine-Gartmanplantsoen 10Work 100
De Balie is a Dutch organization that produces independent journalistic programs about art, culture and politics. De Balie is located at Kleine-Gartmanplantsoen 10, near Leidseplein in Amsterdam.
For great places to work in AMS that don't serve cannabis, I'd recommend to check out De Balie (cafe/theatre on Leidseplein)
