Coffeeshop Siberië: your first visit
Siberië has been on the Brouwersgracht since 1984, which makes it the oldest of the family's five shops and the closest one to Amsterdam Central Station. It is also one of the two where you can stay and sit, and that changes how a first visit works.
Shop pageGetting there & what's nearby
What is different about Siberië?
About 40 seats at shared tables, in an older canal building with a step at the entrance. Staff help where needed.
The walls carry artwork that changes over time.
Because Siberië is a sit-in shop, two extra house rules apply here: buying a drink or refreshment is required, and a visit lasts at most 2.5 hours.
Coffee is from Stean's Beans, with organic milk or ROA organic oat milk.
