Dak Showroom Amsterdam

Tucked into Bellamyplein in Amsterdam’s Oud-West, Dak Showroom offers a closer look at how Dak Coffee Roasters approaches coffee—from sourcing to cup. Part tasting room, part retail space, the café moves away from the usual grab-and-go espresso bar model and instead focuses on creating a more thoughtful connection between producer and drinker.

Founded in 2019 by Louis-Philpe Boucher and Veronique Laharde, Dak Coffee Roasters has become known for its light roasting style and emphasis on transparency and terroir. The Showroom reflects that same philosophy in physical form. Rather than an extensive food menu or fast-moving queue, guests are met with a carefully curated lineup of single-origin coffees brewed on Slayer and Decent machines, alongside matcha, brewing equipment, and branded merchandise.

Hidden in the back is one of the space’s standout features: a private cupping room used for tastings, workshops, and educational sessions. That focus on accessibility and coffee education is what gives Dak Showroom a different feel from the average Amsterdam café. Whether you’re exploring a bright Kenyan filter roast or a more balanced espresso profile, the experience is built around discovery as much as drinking coffee.

For both curious newcomers and dedicated enthusiasts, Dak Showroom feels less like a conventional café and more like an open invitation into the world of specialty roasting—which is exactly what makes it memorable.
