Hoi Tin Café exudes a contemporary and fresh vibe in the heart of Amsterdam Chinatown. Where the parent restaurant exudes traditional Chinese, this cafe surprises with a sleek interior of beige walls, a green bar and abstract art that embraces modern hospitality.
The atmosphere is casual and inviting, with low stools and a unique split-level layout - so you can enjoy your coffee or special snack even in the basement, an oasis of calm. The combination of light materials and vibrant green accents makes it a place you'll love to step into for a surprising taste explosion.
The cafe is all about fusion: from the successful classic Hong Kong buns to experimental variations such as matcha-custard buns and the popularly acclaimed bolo bao, a soft bun with a crispy top and rich butter. The fresh twist comes in part because of the in-house bakery that delivers fresh bread and snacks daily - quality that the famed Hoi Tin Restaurant guarantees and is even appreciated by other restaurants.
"The café combines traditional craftsmanship with modern flavors and striking interior design - a fresh and surprising addition to Amsterdam Chinatown."
The concept continues to innovate with monthly specials such as mooncakes and other Asian delicacies, so the offerings are always exciting and dynamic. Hoi Tin Café invites not only a quick coffee, but also a culinary discovery in an accessible setting.
