In the heart of Amsterdam’s iconic Nine Streets and now on Spuistraat, Chun Café offers a delightful escape with its perfect blend of high-quality matcha and mouthwatering fluffy toasts. What started as a small café in 2020 has quickly grown into a beloved local spot with two locations. With its inviting atmosphere and commitment to both quality and aesthetics, Chun Café has become a go-to destination for those seeking comfort and flavor in every bite and sip.
The Story Behind Chun Café
Chun Café began in 2020 as a modest space on Berenstraat in Amsterdam’s Nine Streets, offering high-quality matcha and milk tea. In a time when the world was reeling from the effects of COVID-19, Chun Café became a haven for locals, a place to reconnect and unwind. Its success led to partnerships with top brands like Uniqlo, Filling Pieces, and Ace & Tate. As the café quickly outgrew its original location, it moved just two doors down to a larger, more vibrant space, where it evolved into the bustling modern café it is today. With a focus on fast-casual dining, the café serves up delicious toasts, premium matcha, and coffee. All in a sleek, contemporary environment!
Toasts That Steal the Show
While matcha is the heart of Chun Café, the menu also features its famous Korean fluffy toasts, which have become a must-try. These toasts are soft, savory, and perfectly crispy on the outside. They are delicious treat for any time of the day. Some standout options include the vegan tofu puff toast and the avocado egg cheese toast. Both burst with amazing flavor and texture. Whether you’re looking for a plant-based option or something indulgently creamy, these toasts are sure to satisfy. Pair them with an iced matcha banana cloud for the ultimate experience!
Matcha Magic from Uji to Amsterdam
What sets Chun Café apart is its deep-rooted passion for matcha. Sourced directly from small, family-owned farms in Uji, Kyoto, Chun Café offers premium, hand-picked matcha that’s both vibrant and rich in flavor. The team’s commitment to quality shines through with every sip. Plus, visitors often rave about the deep, earthy taste of their matcha lattes. Having visited the tea farms personally, Chun Café brings the true essence of matcha from Japan to Amsterdam. It definitely makes it one of the city’s most authentic matcha spots.
