Thirsty tales
This is where you’ll find the very best coffee
Strong or weak, filter or espresso, with or without milk and sugar: everyone has their coffee preferences, but Boot Koffie in Amersfoort serves the best. At least according to the Misset Horeca Coffee Top 100.
door Steffi Posthumus
The filter coffee at the Boot branch in Amersfoort even managed to ‘move the jury to tears’. Well, then you know you’re doing something right. The jury was also highly impressed by the other coffees. They were even called ‘phenomenal’. ‘The deserved number one.’
In second place is Capriole in The Hague, which, in addition to silver, also won the award for the best coffee in South Holland and the award for ‘Most Beautiful Venue’. Third place goes to Amsterdam’s East57, fourth place to Drab Coffee in Den Bosch and fifth place to Koffie bij Teun in Breda.
