Albert Cuyp Market
Albert Cuyp is Amsterdam's largest and best-known daily street market, a long strip of stalls selling produce, fish, cheese, textiles, and cheap clothing alongside food vendors doing brisk trade in stroopwafels and fried snacks. It's less about any single stall and more the atmosphere of a genuinely local, working-class market that hasn't been fully reshaped for tourists, even though it now draws plenty of them.
De Pijp itself, the neighborhood the market anchors, is worth wandering beyond the stalls — narrow streets packed with small restaurants and bars reflecting Amsterdam's more everyday, less postcard side.
