A Hidden Chocolate Shop in the Heart of the Canal Belt

Amsterdam's canal belt — Grachtengordel — is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Our chocolate factory sits exactly in the middle of it, on Leidsestraat, between Prinsengracht and Keizersgracht. A natural detour during a canal walk.

Walking directions: Leidsestraat runs through the middle of the canal belt, between Prinsengracht and Keizersgracht. We're at number 87.

Built into a 17th-century building

The factory occupies the ground floor of a canal house that's been standing since the 1660s. Original beams, restored shopfront, golden interior. Worth a look even if you're not buying.

Best paired with a canal cruise

Most canal cruises leave from Leidseplein or the Singel — both within 5 minutes of our door. Time it: cruise first, then chocolate, then dinner.

Is Amsterdam Chocolate Factory in the canal belt?
