TGIF! Time for a new hotspot!

When I was in college I used to live near the Overtoom (near the Leidseplein). A lovely neighborhood with lots of cool coffee and cocktail bars. The Overtoom was just one of these streets though that hosted a lot of weird stores and restaurants. And although it is a big street right in the center of Amsterdam, it always seemed like nothing was really going to change. Until recently though, because the Overtoom is getting cool! A while ago, I spotted this store annex lunchroom when I passed by it on my bike. And although I did not have the time to go in and check it out, I could not get it out of my head. I mean, the stores entrance is promising by itself right? So last Friday, I finally went to check it out. I mostly photographed the interior design part, but the store also has a great collection of jewelry and is a nice place to go for lunch and coffee. So here we go, the rating!

Why?
Last week I wrote about Hotel Droog. And although Friday Next does remind me a bit of that concept - cross overs between different creative sectors - it is truly different. More low key. When walking around in the store, you get the feeling like it is sort of a life size cabinet of curiosities. A vintage feel, combined with a Scandinavian heart. So if you are into HAY for example, you will definitely love this store.

Furthermore, it is a really cool lunchroom. Healthy shakes and home made sandwiches adorn the menu. The perfect place to add to your Saturday stroll.

Who?
Amsterdam's young and creative crowd.

Affordable?
Although the furniture is priced quite high - design pieces - Friday Next also sells a lot of small stuff. Like candles, kitchen stuff, jewelry and funny gifts. Quality is paramount though, so do not expect to walk out with a bad rip off of some design. If you are looking for an original gift for someone that appreciates a good design, this is your place to be.

And again, coffee and window shopping come cheap.

Where?
You can find Friday Next on the Overtoom. And if you decide to visit the store, do not forget to go for a stroll in the neighborhood. - called Oud-West - You will find lots of bars where you can have coffee and lunch around lunchtime and a cocktail in the evening. 

For more info about Friday Next, you can visit their website. 

Happy Friday!

    1. It really is! Funny to see how stores in Amsterdam are all becoming cross-overs between different disciplines. Stores and lunchroom in one!
