Albert Cuyp: ALBERT CUYP MARKT Street Market - Albert Cuyp Review

What to buy: You will find there specially cheap clothes and the usual food. This is a place for locals, I think.

I liked a lot the vegetables and fruit stalls, with a lot of products. There was also good bargains in shoes and clothes, too.

Don't miss a couple of stalls where you can taste the "strootje hering" (or something like that) which is a sandwich with a herring, onion and etc. a typicall and nice meal from Holland. Even being typicall for me it was a bit difficult to find it!

What to pay: I found it was cheap, good place to buy the daily food!

Address: All along Albert Cuypstraat

Directions: Tram stop: Albert Cuypstraat.
