Beautiful interior, but it is overcrowded. Prepackaged Napoleon macaron box to-go outside by the viennoiserie stand if you don't want to wait in the long line inside, but you can't pick your flavors.
Such a beautiful bookstore, and perfect if you want to spend a quiet afternoon reading. Very peaceful ambiance, and all the books are in English. No photos allowed but I took one anyways. :^)
Bikes, stroopwafels, tulips, windmills—amazing country to visit and to live in! Visit Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Kinderdijk, Gouda, and Maastricht!
Beef noodle soup and barbecue pork noodle soup are good lunch options for only €8. Very typical Asian service (fast, efficient, but not necessarily friendly) and free wifi!
My favorite view in Paris, and it's much better than the Eiffel Tower. Entrance to the top for breathtaking, panoramic views of Paris is free for EU citizens under 26! Amazing detail in the arc!
Amazing macarons with the perfect soft, flaky consistency that you can only find in Paris. The poire (pear) macaron is fresh and has a unique taste.
Chic, clean interior with a wide selection of French books from bestsellers to humor to children's books.
The kind of casual, quiet, family-style bar that is ideal for having long conversations with friends over drinks/a meal. Tried their Croque Monsieur, which was reasonably priced. Books in the corner!
A nice patisserie near the Gare de Lyon station. They have a lunch special, which includes sandwich, a drink, and dessert for ~10€. The Pain au Chocolat is good.
The best Ladurée in Paris. It's not as crowded, the service is good, and it's much quieter than the one at Champs-Élysées.
Love the Gouter de Amelie special, with a drink + créme brûlée! The creme brûlée has a touch of cardamon in it that makes it delicious. Very nice servers, and at night, its bar has a good atmosphere.
Small rooms, but clean, cute, and perfect location 4 minutes to one of Paris's central stations: Gare de Lyon. Friendly staff who are very willing to help, and free candy at the front desk!
Love this store, even though the interior isn't as nice as Albert Heijn or Jumbo. Lowest prices around, and keep an eye out for their weekly deals!
Violette macaron is good, and not too expensive compared to other patisseries in the city.
704 steps up to the 2nd floor, where you can take an elevator to the top. It costs 5€ for EU citizens 18-25 to walk up to the second floor, then €6.50 to take the elevator to the top!
Perfect views during sunset, and you can bungee jump off the pier! The Ferris wheel makes a nice backdrop for any photos you might want to take.
Come here during the month of December for glühwein, ice skating, a Ferris wheel, poffertjes, oliebollen, souvenirs, and more!
Had a great time here! You get to bungee jump over the water, right next to a Ferris wheel. 75€ for the first jump, and 60€ for a second one.
This Lebanese restaurant is great for a quick, cheap meal. We loved the Zaatar with Veggies, Lahme b Ajin, and the Hummus. For dessert, try the Halawet al Riz.
Loved the Angus medium-well burger with fried egg and avocado. Prices aren't bad, and the burger meat is very juicy.
A hidden gem in Maastricht near the Vrijthof. It has couches, smoothie bowls, wraps, delicious pastries, free wifi, an outdoor garden, and a great rock n roll playlist. Their cranberry tea is good.
One of my favorite cafes. Get the Energy yogurt bowl, matcha Latte, or Chai Latte. It also doubles as a bike repair shop! Free wifi, quiet, cozy interior & very Dutch. They also own a dog ;)
Hae is a design/concept store that sells homemade Korean food like bibimbap, japchae, + coffee. Get the Roasted Wheat Latte or Matcha Latte & Beef Bibimbap. They also have a nice collection of socks!
Sasiedzi is a Michelin star restaurant tucked away in Kraków's Jewish Quarter. Its menu items are priced very low for the quality of food that you get. Cozy interior, with a small garden in the back.
A hidden gem near the Vrijthof. It's quiet, has cheaper beverages than Koffie, strong free wifi, and a nice playlist. Overall a good study spot. With each beverage you receive a mini stroopwafel!
Delicious pierogi! Try the curry dumplings with meat. It is a small, cozy space with Van Gogh themed artwork and ceiling.
